We were founded in February 2018 with the idea that giving plastic a value, we could get it removed from nature. A bit like the bottle deposit system, but for all kinds of plastic! We have gained amazing traction since we started, from being featured in Forbes and The Independent and invited to a panel at the first OECD forum on Blockchain to winning awards and being the only Nordic initiative among the 25 development projects/ SDG solutions selected to be showcased at Expo 2021 Dubai’s Global Best Practice Programme. We have done cleanups and pilots in more than 15 countries, proving that this really does work! Now we are building a global plastic waste ecosystem to incentivize cleanup and track where the plastic ends - most of it ideally back to reuse! The next step is to bring our vision to more places and create a truly innovative system than can help solve some of the big problems with plastic waste (of which there are more than you might imagine).

Last year we built a recruitment platform in order to match the right candidates with the right employers based on 1) skills (yes, it's still there) 2) what you want to do 3) personality and company culture. We have more than 1000 candidates. We are 1) A real recruitment company INDUCE (.dk), with real customers, making real money and growing (3 employees and 2 partners) 2) A Tech company called CTOCPH (.com) partly owns the product and leads the development https://bridge.induce.dk We work remotely or at the Rebel Work space next to Østerport station. We want to help, and we are every day helping companies get great candidates. It's NOT a one way street. It goes two-ways. If we find you what you want, makes you excited, and the job also matches your personality AND is a place where you have a high probability to fit it from day one – would you not want to take that chance? How many times do you know anything about the company you are applying for except the usual rant about "great workspace" and "innovative environment"? Is it real? We want you to get as many honest answers as possible before you take the leap. And hey the other side, the companies. Imagine tons of applications, all different looking CVs. No one reads that. And if they do, you get rejected on the wrong basis. Just because you forgot something you thought was obvious, or even worse – you didn't spend hours in Word making your CV look stellar and have the right amount of SEO keyword optimization in it.  You want this. Companies needs this. It's so simple. Forget the CV. Ok, it has it's place, but let's focus on the ones that want and can, shall we? Ok so we assume you are good from the beginning. Done. Next, we see if what you bring in existing skills and experience is good enough. Ok, reached that. Then – and here is where it gets interesting. We ask you what you want to do in the future. Crazy huh? We actually ask you that. Then, we ask you to draw some slides and kind of map your personality. And your preferred company culture. Are you an office camper or a road runner? Then – boom we ask the company the SAME questions. Who do they want? What is their company culture? Magic happens. You get matched. They invite you for an interview. Hopefully. What's not to like? Yes we are live. Yes you can join. But it's invitation only. So the only way to get in, unless you get invited from a friend is – to send your interest for a job. If we think you may be a good fit, we'll invite you. https://bridge.induce.dk/jobs/ Right now we are focusing on Digital profiles.

Our mission is to create a contraceptive technology that renders hormonal birth control obsolete. We are addressing the millions of women that are demanding non-hormonal products with fewer side-effects to manage their fertility. Today, nearly 60 years after the first oral contraceptive pill was sold, most prescription birth control methods are variations on the same synthetic hormones. In collaboration with the Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm, Sweden, we have developed a technology that reinforces the natural barrier properties of cervical mucus. The principle of the technology is to use topically-applied biopolymers to make cervical mucus impenetrable to sperm cells throughout the menstrual cycle. Our approach enables a potentially groundbreaking product that protects within a minute and for extended periods without the systemic side-effects known from hormonal contraceptives. In 2019 we raised $1.8M for pre-clinical development. Today we are incubated at the BioInnovation Institute, conveniently located in central Copenhagen, with access to state-of-the-art labs.

Buildright is developing an AI intelligence layer for construction projects to help contractors and project teams solve invisible risk — by turning the data already generated on every project into actionable insights before problems become costs. The problem hiding in plain sight Construction is broken. 85% of large projects finish over budget. Rework accounts for 9% of total project cost. Delays cost $280bn annually in North America alone. The signals that predict these outcomes already exist — in meeting notes, deviation logs, change orders, and task lists. But no one sees them in time to act. Risk only becomes visible after it has already cost you. This affects every contractor, project manager, site foreman, and HSE officer on every project — in an industry that represents trillions in global economic activity. From raw data to the right decision Buildright connects the data already generated on construction projects and surfaces the right insight to the right person — at every level of the organisation. Project directors get cross-project risk visibility to see which projects need attention before they escalate. PMs, HSE managers, and quality leads get role-specific dashboards with the decisions they need to make, surfaced daily. Site crews get targeted microlearning triggered automatically when a risk pattern is detected — before the next shift starts. But we go beyond insights. Buildright also automates the everyday tasks that consume project teams — generating alerts when something needs attention, and producing artifacts like meeting packs, reports, and change-order traces automatically. The result is not just better visibility, but a meaningfully more efficient project team. We're live in production with AF Gruppen and Betonmast, two of Norway's largest contractors. 100,000+ deviations, tasks, and meeting notes analysed — with a confirmed 10x ROI from our pilots. The urge to solve a global problem Lars Gaustad spent years at the top of the construction industry — and watched the same story play out over and over. Projects bleeding money. Deadlines slipping. And when it was over, everyone moved on. No real post-mortem. No learning. Just the next project, making the same mistakes. The industry wasn't short of ambition. It wasn't short of software. It was drowning in data it couldn't use. As CEO of Saint-Gobain Construction Products in Norway, Lars saw that the real problem wasn't digitalization — it was that decades of hard-won project knowledge was locked away, invisible, unreachable to the people who needed it most. Every project started from scratch. Every mistake was someone else's first time. That's not a technology problem. It's a fundamental failure to learn. And it's costing the industry hundreds of billions every year. That's why we build the construction industry's intelligence layer.

Vester159 is a full-service software and digital solutions studio built for SMVs, startups, and small-to-medium sized businesses that are ready to grow but need the right technical partner to get there. We exist because too many great businesses are being held back — not by a lack of ambition, but by a lack of execution. Generic agencies overpromise, off-the-shelf tools stop scaling, and disconnected systems quietly drain time and revenue. Vester159 was founded to close that gap: delivering enterprise-grade software at startup speed, with a relentless focus on stability, scalability, and tangible business outcomes. Our capabilities span the full digital stack. We build high-performance ecommerce storefronts using headless commerce and Shopify/WooCommerce architectures optimized for conversion. We design aesthetic, user-centric interfaces that reflect brand identity while maintaining peak performance across all devices. We develop native and cross-platform mobile applications leveraging the latest SDKs for fluid, responsive user experiences. And we eliminate the operational overhead that holds growing businesses back — through intelligent workflow automations and seamless API integrations that connect disparate systems, from custom middleware to complex ERP setups. What sets us apart is our obsession with outcomes over deliverables. We don't measure success by lines of code shipped — we measure it by the revenue unlocked, the hours saved, and the competitive edge gained. Every solution we build is designed to grow with the business, not against it. Vester159 is the technical partner that ambitious businesses deserve: accountable, precise, and built for the long game.

Brandog is developing an AI-powered counterfeit detection and enforcement platform to help brand owners solve the problem of online counterfeiting with autonomous scanning agents that find, verify, and take down fakes across 500+ marketplaces — in minutes, not months. Online counterfeiting is a $2 trillion problem. Every brand with a digital presence — from luxury fashion to consumer electronics — faces an endless stream of counterfeit listings across Amazon, AliExpress, eBay, Shopify stores, social media, and thousands of independent websites. Today, brand protection is manual, slow, and expensive. Companies either hire law firms charging $300/hour to file takedowns one by one, or they pay enterprise platforms $50K+/year that still require human analysts to review every detection. Small and mid-size brands simply can't afford protection, and even large brands can't keep up with the volume. The counterfeits multiply faster than humans can find them. Brandog deploys autonomous AI agents that work around the clock. The Scan Agent crawls billions of pages and uses reverse image search across 500+ marketplaces to find listings that match a brand's protected assets. The Vision Agent then uses AI image comparison to score each match with precise visual similarity percentages — not rough guesses. Listings that cross the threshold are automatically escalated. The Enforcement Agent generates and submits takedown requests to platforms. The entire pipeline runs without human intervention. Brand owners upload their product images, set their scan frequency, and the system handles everything — from detection to takedown verification. A dashboard shows real-time results, match scores, seller intelligence, and revenue-at-risk estimates so brands can prioritize what matters most. We watched a friend's small consumer brand get destroyed by counterfeit sellers on Amazon. They spent months manually searching for fakes, filing DMCA complaints, and watching the same sellers pop back up under new names. They couldn't afford the enterprise brand protection tools, and the cheap alternatives were just glorified Google Alerts. We realized that the technology to solve this — computer vision, large language models, automated web crawling — already existed, but nobody had assembled it into something affordable, autonomous, and accessible to brands of any size. That gap between what's technologically possible and what's actually available to brand owners is what drives us. Every day a counterfeit stays live, a brand loses revenue, reputation, and customer trust. We're building the tool we wish existed.
