PESITHO ApS

PESITHO Pesitho is a Danish based enterprise, committed to providing affordable and clean energy solutions for cooking to marginalized and vulnerable people around the world. We have developed the ECOCA solar powered electric cook stove, to meet the daily cooking and energy needs to families living in off grid areas. Pesitho has established a locally run co-operative outside of the Bidibidi Refugee Settlement in Northern Uganda, from where stoves are assembled, distributed, and serviced by refugee residents and members of the host community. The company was founded in 2018 and has a combined experience of more than 30 years in the renewable energy industry. The Problem we are solving Currently, 4 billion people around the world lack access to clean, efficient, and affordable access to energy for cooking. Polluting fuels and technologies for cooking have a detrimental impact of health, nutrition, gender, and the environment, hindering the process of a sustainable development, in many cases, in already fragile settings. The lack of progress in clean cooking, reportedly costs the world more than $2.4 trillion each year, driven by adverse impacts on health, climate, and gender equality. Left unaddressed, communities will continue face multiple adverse consequences, that are further amplified by poverty, climate change and future global pandemics. To solve this problem Providing access to an affordable and sustainable technology for cooking with the ECOCA solar powered electric cook seeks to address energy security not just for cooking but also to reduce environmental issues like deforestation, pollution, also gender inequality and poverty. Research and design for our stove was conducted with residents of the Bidibidi Refugee Settlement in Northern Uganda, where pilot testing permitted additional adjustments, allowing for a stove specifically designed to meet the cooking needs of vulnerable groups of people living in off grid areas. The ECOCA comes with a solar panel, insulated 6l cooking pot, 1 LED rechargeable household lamp, 1 LED rechargeable torch and USB ports for charging small items. Studies conducted with end users by organizations such as Caritas and World Food Program, have shown improvements to overall health and wellbeing, reducing exposure to harmful pollutants from smoke and usage of firewood, improvements in taste of food, income generation from USB port charging station and hours saved from collecting firewood being reinvested in education and skills training. The Spark Pesitho was founded on the belief that all should be able to have access to modern clean energy for cooking. Seeing a map over Africa showed that a large portion of the continent is without access to modern energy. This sparked a willingness to learn why. Understanding the why lead to the understanding of scale of lacking modern energy in that region of the world. While other continents where mowing a positive direction in relation to rural electrification sub Sarah Africa is still mowing in the wrong direction with the number of people living without access to electricity growing. This knowledge inspired the team to pursue the development of the ECOCA, off grid E-cooker

Trackunit

Welcome to the world of Trackunit - welcome to our human operating system! We consider The Trackunit Way and our leadership model as a competitive advantage. Leadership hasn’t changed that much in the last 100 years and many of the original dogmas are still in play and being used, despite the world we live in has changed dramatically within the same period of time. The way we work matters, and it has never been more important to focus on that to keep us relevant and competitive – that’s why we put our money on people, purpose, collaboration, belonging, and leadership. At Trackunit, we’re committed to construction - one of the largest industries in the world. It’s an industry of strong, hard-working people, building the infrastructure of our lives. An industry that used to be known for the cities it built and the landscapes it formed. For complex infrastructures and the rise of skyscrapers in unthinkable shapes and sizes. Construction enables each one of us to live better lives through safer roads and rails, modern hospitals and schools, offices and homes. But for too long, the industry has been known for blown-up budgets and schedules delayed by months. At Trackunit, we believe we can still do the impossible and rebuild the reputation of the industry. New technology has emerged, and today we know more than ever before. We build the services that enable construction to work smarter together and grow faster together. An industry that has long been the laggard of digital transformation is now at a tipping point. Change is happening. What impact are you going to make?

NoviPel

NoviPel (2014) is a MedTech company with the aim of treating urinary incontinence (UI). An estimated 10% of all women, i.e. more than 300,000 women in Denmark, suffer from UI. The condition is still widely considered a taboo and has no effective treatment today. Sundhedsstyrelsen recommends the following treatments by order of effectiveness: Pelvic floor muscle training (PFMT); pharmacological therapy; and surgery. Surgery, used as a last resort solution, is expensive and has poor response rates. Pharmacological therapy has shown slightly better response rates but is accompanied by non-negligible side-effects. PFMT is a highly individual and specialized procedure. Done correctly it is a cheap, non-invasive procedure void of side-effects. There is a proven need for a tool to allow healthcare practitioners (HCPs) to standardize treatment, teach correct exercises, and collect data accurately. Our device is a non-invasive vaginal probe, offering users a new, data-driven best practice of supervised PFMT, AI nudging to improve adherence and patient education. The fully automated method optimizes existing treatment methods and improves HCP’s in their workflow. Our device can directly decrease existing UI related health economic costs by mitigating expenses from diapers and surgery-related expenses.
