MAP Group ApS | Negate

Let’s put our heads, hearts and technology together to make the world a more secure place! Our vision at MAP Group is to prevent and stop financial crime in action. We started MAP Group to tackle this increasing global challenge, as we saw a lack of organized digital approach to fighting fraud. We’ve gathered a great team of AML-specialists, compliance experts, computer scientists, and software engineers who use their skills, experiences, and creativity to develop state-of-the art data driven fraud prevention software. Our solutions are based on collaboration, knowledge sharing and artificial intelligence. The founders of MAP Group created their initial ideas for the company based on their experiences as former financial crime investigators from the Copenhagen Police Department, NCIK (National Center for IT-related crime), working with a specific focus on IT-related financial crime, identity abuse and data fraud in the financial sector. Then, we created Negate. Negate makes it easy to establish a comprehensive profile of your client, a company, a collaborator or trading partner. As a SaaS solution and preventive screening tool, Negate is an API-based web application combining newly developed software, specialist experience and artificial intelligence to prevent and eventually predict patterns of criminal behaviour that were previously unnoticed.

Foros opens up opportunities for much wider groups of people to benefit from owning forests. People will be able to invest in forests at ease, entrusting forest management to our experienced forestry professionals who will take good care of forests and manage them sustainably. Forest owners will get our offers and suggestions for how to best manage the forest. We call them 'your forest value growth plan'. These offers forest owners will be able to activate and implement within a few button clicks. Behind the scenes, to aid better decision making we will utilise big data analytics and machine learning. To date we have handled €24m in forest land transactions. This shows that there is a dire need for a digital, modern solution for existing forest owners.

Sawux

More than 40% of the electrical energy in office environments is used outside working hours. CO2 in buildings has too high a level, which gives sick employees and students who lose 12% of their learning ability. Ventilation is often oversized by 10-20% due to uncertainty about CO2 levels, which have not been adequately investigated and measured. Often, consulting firms offer a measurement over 30 days. The measurements are only a snapshot of the real picture, which does not take into account the season and number of people in the room. VOCs in buildings are more harmful than first thought. VOC combined with too high CO2 can cause allergic reactions and over time develop asthma. The solution for reducing electricity consumption is to use intelligent automation and with behavior control. A sensor can be set up in areas that are used that automatically turn on the light when there is a person present. Several companies offer this solution, but if it is to be used for something, the devices must send data to the central server, after which you can analyze when and how much. The data set provides better management and control. For the CO2 problem, sensors are set up in the premises. The problem with existing sensors on the market is they have to be mounted with cable that is led maybe 100m away to a central box. It is both expensive and often not without surprises, especially for older buildings where drawings are often not updated. Sawux solves several of the mentioned problems. Sawux is a combination of 5 sensors in the same unit that measure and operate wirelessly. The sensors have access to a Cloud server, where data is collected every minute. Then data can be analyzed and given a real picture over time, which forms the basis for the right decision and correct ventilation systems. Sawux fits into existing 230V electrical environment and does not require cabling, boxes, battery or external power supplies. Sawux connects to the Internet via standard WiFi, which is found in all modern buildings. Sawux's solution is very cost effective and user friendly which is able to provide valid data. The Sawux system comes with an app. and web based energy management system, where you can at any time perform analysis of the building completely at the contact level.

Techrail

Norway’s unique landscape necessitates one of the most extensive tunnel networks in the world. 1800 road and rail tunnels contribute to 9000km of tunnel in Norway. These are inspected manually by eye and on foot, a time-consuming and hazardous process producing only qualitative data on tunnel safety. To combat these issues, Techrail aims to provide an integrated solution that is safer for inspectors, that does not interfere with traffic, and more comprehensively evaluates the safety of tunnels. Our solution enables the measuring the change of a tunnel’s surface over time, which allows tunnel directors to predict maintenance needs and more accurately evaluate the state of their tunnels. A digital paper trail will also aid regulators in overseeing tunnel maintenance. Furthermore, our technology has a large number of secondary uses that provide value such as Building Information Modeling (BIM), tunnel construction, and crack detection.

Artistry

The independent music sector is growing rapidly each year. 60 000 songs are uploaded on services such as Spotify and Apple music each day. This growth makes it hard for artists to get their art in front of the masses, especially independent artists. Artistry is building the most effective tool to release and promote music in the digital age.

Changing Stories

Changing Stories is a charity based in Aarhus, Denmark. Our vision is a world where every kid learns. Today, more kids and youth are in school than ever before. Yet 617 million – 1 in 3 - can’t read or do basic math. The World Bank calls the enormous lack of learning in school systems in low-income countries around the world the global learning crisis. We're on a mission to change that. We do so by working with dedicated local partners in low-income countries around the world that help kids learn through effective learning initiatives. Our geographical focus right now is Nepal, where we are supporting 3 local partners. Our operating costs are covered by a group of private individuals, which means we can send 100% of all other donations directly to the field. We call it the 100%-promise.
