Defend Denmark er Danmarks første og eneste lokale bug bounty platform. Vi forbinder danske etiske hackere med danske virksomheder, så sårbarheder bliver opdaget og lukket inden de udvikler sig til reelle trusler. På platformen kan etiske hackere lede efter sikkerhedshuller hos vores kunder. Finder en hacker en reel sårbarhed, udbetaler kunden en dusør. Det gør it-sikkerhed resultatorienteret frem for tidsorienteret, som ellers er normen i konsulentverdenen. Målet er at få flere danske virksomheder til at tage bug bounty modellen til sig som et aktivt værktøj i deres sikkerhedsarbejde. Defend Denmark er søstervirksomhed til islandske Defend Iceland. Vi er stadig tidligt i opbygningen af virksomheden og kommende medarbejdere får reel indflydelse på de praktiske rammer, herunder kontorplacering og daglige arbejdsgange.

TUYO is a Denmark-based specialty coffee and fine cacao project rooted in long-term relationships with coffee- and cacao-growing communities in Ecuador, and inspired by Nordic values around creativity, innovation, and sustainability. We are building a regenerative business that prioritizes transparency, fair collaboration, and high-quality products, while questioning extractive models within global value chains. Our approach is relational and place-based, centered on people, landscapes, and craft rather than scale. TUYO is currently in an early build phase, finalizing its first pilot specialty coffee line and preparing for an initial public launch moment in late February. Coffee is the immediate focus; fine cacao is part of the broader product vision and will be developed in parallel at a later stage. We work as a small, hands-on team with close collaborators across sourcing, quality, and production, and we value clarity, reliability, and care in how we build both products and partnerships.

Built by Builders for Builders - to tackle the productivity challenge in construction The Problem Construction productivity has been stuck for four decades. We believe this is because the process is broken. In other words, AI, robotics, or hammering faster won’t increase productivity until the underlying process is fixed. The Solution Our software helps construction companies move from theory to practice by teaching the essentials of production management and helping the sites move to industrialised construction. Unlike traditional project management, Sitedrive uses location-based schedules to control and optimize tasks, resources, logistics, finances, and site conditions. This creates a single source of truth for all stakeholders, ensuring everyone stays on the same page and improvements are made continuously.

Carbon Footprint Tool for the Construction Industry Making accurate emission understanding accessible to all, empowering even non-experts to confidently own carbon reduction decisions from early-stage to project completion. On a mission to accelerate sustainable construction the story Founded in 2021, Reduzer was started with a mission to accelerate sustainable construction and help the industry make better decisions - earlier in the project. We truly believe that good, sustainable choices can be made across all phases of a project, but the earlier the better. Based on research from Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) and Technical University of Denmark (DTU), Reduzer is now an emerging software for carbon calculations across the construction industry and is trusted by more than 70 customers across the Nordics. The software is used widely in many construction projects, spanning from developer and architects to consultants and contractors. In 2025, Reduzer secured a financing round led by Momentum Partners, Futurum Ventures and Construct Venture - with the aim to continue developing the platform and enable more sustainable construction. We are a team of 15 dedicated people with a passion for sustainability and for making it accessible to everyone through smart software solutions. Our headquarters are located in Oslo.

Sisters In Startup (SIS) is a platform built to close the gender gap in entrepreneurship. Our mission is to empower women by bridging the gap between their entrepreneurial ambitions and the opportunities needed to succeed. Too often, female founders face structural barriers: lack of access to funding, networks, and mentorship. At SIS, we’re creating a digital ecosystem that changes that. Through curated resources, funding guides, community support, and actionable tools, we make it easier for women to turn ideas into sustainable businesses. SIS combines education, community, and funding readiness in one place, offering practical templates, founder stories, and growth programs tailored to each stage of the entrepreneurial journey. We believe entrepreneurship should be accessible to everyone, not just those who already have connections or capital. That’s why we’re building SIS: a space where women founders can learn, connect, and grow together. Our platform will officially launch in 2026 and is currently in development. We’re looking for a passionate co-founder who shares our vision and wants to help shape the future of female entrepreneurship in Europe (and beyond).

Solid IO is developing a test that shows in advance whether immuno-oncology (IO) drugs will work for each cancer patient, helping doctors avoid trial-and-error and giving more patients access to these promising medicines. IO drugs are transforming cancer care, but they don’t work for everyone. Today, most patients tat receive these treatments don't benefit. Valuable time and resources are lost, and side effects and emotional stress can be heavy. This problem touches millions of people worldwide, frustrates doctors, and slows down the development of new IO drugs. Our solution is a test that mimics a patient’s cancer and immune system outside the body. With it, doctors and researchers can see how that patient reacts to IO medicines before starting treatment. This means patients get a more effective plan right away, and pharma and biotech companies can design smarter, faster trials for new IO drugs and combinations. We started Solid IO because we believe cancer patients deserve more than guesswork. In our work we saw how life-changing IO medicines can be, but also how devastating it is when they fail. That inspired us to create a way to bring more certainty, speed, and hope into cancer care.
