Paint'R

In the European Union alone, more than 1.5 million paint buckets are discarded daily, constituting a disposal of 340 tons of single-use plastic that is incinerated each day. Starting from early 2023 (2025 in Denmark and Slovenia), manufacturers are obligated to cover the disposal costs of their packaging based on sustainability criteria. In Denmark, this translates to an estimated 15% fee on paint buckets. Furthermore, the conventional round shape of packaging has proven suboptimal for logistics and transportation. Beyond its environmental impact, the traditional paint bucket poses challenges for professional painters. These challenges encompass ergonomic issues during handling, such as the strain of lifting two buckets simultaneously, which exceeds recommended weight limits according to the Working Environment Authority. Painters also find themselves in awkward positions when pouring paint into a roller bucket for wall application. The demanding physical nature of the painting profession in Denmark results in accelerated fatigue and early retirement for painters. Additionally, issues like lid leakage due to dried paint and the use of fragile, porous plastic contribute to unexpected spills, particularly during abrupt vehicle stops. Our innovative solution involves a cardboard box housing two patent-pending plastic bags, each containing 5 liters of paint. This packaging not only enhances the workflow for professional painters but also reduces costs and lowers carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) emissions by approximately 65% per unit. The box's design facilitates easy and ergonomic transportation, allowing for a 45% increase in units per pallet. The box is opened, and one of the bags is inserted into a standard roller bucket used by painters. The bag effortlessly opens and seamlessly fits into the roller bucket, wrapping around the edges, and enabling the painter to begin work promptly. This functionality is made possible through an innovative patented design and specific plastic welding techniques.

PeerShare

PeerShare is a payment and expense-sharing platform that makes it easy to pay and split expenses. We believe that financial transactions should be a source of convenience, not complexity. Our software allow parties to communicate and store data without the need for a server. Our vision extends beyond mere payment facilitation; we aim to cultivate a sense of financial community.

Syncdesk

På hoteller er koordineringen af den daglige drift ofte karakteriseret ved en forkærlighed for post-it notes og lange e-mail-tråde. What’s not to like? *Ironi kan forekomme. 😉 Som det ligger mellem linjerne, er kommunikationsflowet på hoteller ofte præget af håndholdte processer, hvor informationen er lagret i statiske skabeloner, primært opbygget i Word eller Excel. Det resulterer i ineffektive arbejdsgange og vigtig information, der går tabt, hvilket direkte påvirker bundlinjen i form af spildte mandetimer og unødvendigt højt kundetab. Syncdesk er sat i verdenen, for at løse det problem og gøre arbejdsdagen lettere for medarbejderen i driften, receptionisten, tjeneren, rengøringspersonalet osv. Vi strømliner koordinering af den daglige drift på hoteller, ved at tilbyde en brugervenlig kommunikationsplatform, som gør det nemt, at dele information på tværs af huset. Det sikrer, at informationen er let tilgængeligt til den rigtige medarbejder på det helt rigtige tidspunkt. 🤝 I hotelbranchen har man en løbende drift 24/7, 365 dage om året. Det skaber et flow af konstant information, som skal behandles eller løses, både mellem vagthold internt i teams eller på tværs af afdelinger. I den forbindelse er der et stort pres på det interne kommunikationsflow for at sikre en smidig koordinering af den daglige drift – det kan være alt fra information relateret til gruppebookinger til håndtering af manglende betalinger eller særlige gæsteforespørgsler. Grundet de eksisterende løsningers manglende struktur og overblik spildes der meget tid på at sikre, at kommunikationen bliver modtaget på det korrekte tidspunkt af den rigtige medarbejder. Til trods for det store arbejde tabes meget vigtig information stadig mellem to stole. 😓 Med Syncdesk simplificerer vi kommunikationsflowet på tværs af hele hotellet og skaber et simpelt overblik over relevant information til den enkelte medarbejder.   Tre måneder efter implementering af Syncdesk føler 91% af de adspurgte receptionister, at de er bedre forberedt, når de starter arbejdsdagen. Det resulterer i, at 82% føler, at de kan levere en forbedret service til hotellets gæster. 🥳 På nuværende tidspunkt er vi tre co-founders på teamet: Christian (26), Alfred (22) og Frederik (22). Vi driver Syncdesk efter bootstrap princippet og vi vægter højt at fastholde friheden til at have os selv med på rejsen og at vi har vores brugere i højsædet.   Vi tror på, at det handler om at finde de rigtige mennesker, inden man kan fastsætte den rigtige retning.   Til daglig sidder vi på Frederiksberg og er en del af CSE (Copenhagen School of Entrepreneurship). CSE er et kontorfællesskab, primært for unge iværksættere, som giver en fremragende mulighed for at sparre og begå sig med andre ambitiøse founders. Kontoret ligger lige ned til Frederiksberg Have, hvilket giver en oplagt mulighed for en gåtur efter frokost, eller hvis man bare skal luftes igennem - og så kan man drikke så meget kaffe, som man har lyst til, selvom det dog ikke helt er baristakaffe. ☕️

Kobbr

Kobbr is on a mission to lead craftsmen, such as electricians, painters and carpenters, into a data driven future. Craftsmen are used to old and outdated software that requires several training days to master. We are building a product that our customers actually love to use and requires no training to get started. Our approach sets us apart from traditional software companies in the industry. We prioritize integrating seamlessly with existing tools, rather than replacing them. Kobbr simplifies workflows and decreases manual tasks by offering a modern alternative to pen, paper, and Excel. Since our software can be easily integrated with craftsmen’s existing software, it shortens our sales processes significantly and opens the opportunity for product-led growth. Our goal is to develop an inclusive work atmosphere and assemble a varied team, as we encourage individuals from all different backgrounds to submit their applications and join our collective journey.

Vocaire

Vocaire is a startup that focuses on empowering physical therapists with AI technologies. The problem we are solving is that PTs cannot be 100% present during their consultation since they have to focus on administrative work and other tasks. The founders of our startup are previous elite sportsmen who experienced firsthand the inefficiencies of the current system. Physical therapy is a crucial part of the recovery process for many individuals who have experienced injuries or other physical limitations. However, the current system is highly inefficient and often requires PTs to spend a significant amount of time on administrative tasks. For example, PTs may have to spend time scheduling appointments, documenting patient progress, and communicating with other healthcare providers. This leaves less time for PTs to focus on their patients and provide the best possible care. At Vocaire, we believe that technology can help alleviate this problem. By leveraging AI and other advanced technologies, we aim to streamline administrative tasks and give PTs more time to focus on their patients. Overall, we believe that Vocaire has the potential to significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of physical therapy. By leveraging AI and other advanced technologies, we aim to empower PTs to provide the best possible care to their patients. We are excited about the potential of our platform and look forward to continuing to innovate in this space.

GlossGods

We are a female based company from the northern part of Sweden that calls ourselves GODS. Not Goddesses. We don’t think that the word should be for just the male pronoun/gender. We think that makeup and beauty is Genderfluid. We wanted to create a brand that gives everyone the chance to take charge of their own creativity and self expression, unapologetically of who you are, when the occasion is or how much make up you would like to wear and even if you don’t want to wear no make up at all. You should be your own GOD and have the power to make your own decisions and not what the society thinks you should.
