1. Short description (the pitch) Memorise is building a powerhouse network of senior digital-marketing specialists that helps growth companies turn marketing spend into measurable pipeline — with a client-set price cap, no lock-in, and full ownership of everything we build. 2. The What (the problem) Most companies overpay for marketing that can't prove its worth. Traditional agencies bill for activity, not outcomes: junior-heavy teams, opaque retainers, and reports that count clicks instead of revenue. Clients rarely own their own accounts or data, which quietly locks them in. It affects nearly every SME and scaleup buying marketing — budget leaks into overhead and "the name on the invoice" rather than work that actually moves the business. 3. The How (the solution) Memorise runs as a powerhouse: an in-house strategy function leads every engagement and activates senior specialists from our network — SEO, Google Ads, web, content and AI search — only when the work demands it. Every action is tied to a business goal and reported as leads and pipeline, not impressions. We work to a price cap the client sets (never more; less if we spend less), with no binding period, and the client owns all accounts, data, code and material from day one. And we go all the way to execution, not just the report. 4. The Why (the motivation) We started Memorise because the agency model is built backwards — clients pay for the office, the brand on the invoice and a PDF, while the right senior person is never free when you need them. We'd watched too many businesses pay premium retainers for junior work, then lose access to their own data the moment they wanted to leave. Memorise is the answer: pay for the work that's actually done, prove the result, and let clients keep everything. Marketing that shows up in the business, not just on the invoice.

Pelea is the peer-to-peer prediction platform that makes watching sport more fun, and turns fan communities into thriving ecosystems. We let anyone become a "Game Creator." Influencers, Facebook group admins, sports bars, and fan clubs build Game Cards with simple football questions, invite their people, and run the action. No odds. No spreads. No jargon. Just react, play, and settle who actually knows their football. It is genuinely peer-to-peer. Players compete against each other, not the house. In private games you play among friends, and in public games you play against other people in the community. For Creators and Community leaders you get a turnkey solution to monetize the audience and create amazingly engaging content. We (currently) operate exclusively for residents of Denmark, require MitID verification, enforce an 18+ minimum age, and are committed to responsible play. Sport is better when everyone engages.

1. Short Description (The Pitch) HEIMDALL'S Hearing Center is developing a modern and more human approach to hearing care, helping people with hearing loss improve their quality of life through personalized guidance, advanced hearing technology, and professional expertise. We combine technology, flexible service, and close customer relationships to make hearing aids less complicated, more accessible, and far more tailored to each individual user. 2. The Problem – What Are We Solving? Hearing loss affects millions of people and is a growing societal challenge, especially among older adults, but increasingly also among younger generations due to noise exposure, stress, and constant use of audio devices. Many people live with untreated hearing loss for years because the process around hearing aids often feels overwhelming, impersonal, or driven by standardized solutions. The consequences are significant — both socially and mentally. Hearing loss can lead to isolation, misunderstandings, reduced quality of life, and in some cases stress and loneliness. At the same time, many customers feel a lack of trust in the market because the guidance they receive often feels sales-driven rather than genuinely focused on their needs. HEIMDALL'S Hearing Center wants to change that experience. We believe hearing care should be personal, transparent, and built on trust. Our goal is to create a hearing center where customers feel understood and receive solutions that fit their daily lives — not just their hearing test results. 3. The Solution – How Are We Solving It? We are building a hearing center focused on personalized service, modern technology, and long-term relationships with our customers. HEIMDALL'S Hearing Center provides professional hearing tests, individual counseling, and carefully selected hearing aid solutions that match each customer’s lifestyle, needs, and budget. What differentiates us from traditional providers is our focus on the complete customer experience. We want to make the process simple, comfortable, and trustworthy from the very first contact to ongoing follow-up care. We combine in-person support with digital solutions, flexible appointments, and close customer service so users feel supported every step of the way. We work with the latest hearing aid technologies and fitting methods, but our greatest strength is our ability to turn technology into something practical, understandable, and meaningful in everyday life. Our mission is not only to improve hearing but to improve people’s social lives, confidence, and freedom. 4. The Why – What Motivated Us to Start? HEIMDALL'S Hearing Center was founded from a desire to make a real difference for people who feel overlooked by the existing system. We saw a market where many customers experienced a lack of personal attention, standardized solutions, and too little focus on the human side of hearing loss. We believe great hearing care is about more than technology. It is about giving people the ability to actively participate in conversations, family life, work, and social communities again. Our motivation comes from the ambition to build a company based on professionalism, honest guidance, and strong customer relationships. HEIMDALL'S Hearing Center should be a place where people feel safe, respected, and genuinely helped — not just treated.

It all started during a long and warm trip through Southeast Asia, inspired by the rich varieties of tea and the rich culture behind them. Back home in Sweden, the shelves were full of sugary ice teas, mostly peach or lemon, accompanied by kombucha that, while being healthy, is not everyone’s cup of tea. Then Théa was born: A non alcoholic sparkling tea drink that tastes amazing, made of real tea leaves, refreshing, full of natural tea benefits and no added sugars.

Sikr is the first company specializing in Cyber Security (CS) for Small and Midsized Enterprises (SMEs). We have a product, we have a few paying customers, and we are EU-funded though the Danish National Coordination Center for Cyber Security. Which is documented at https://ncc-dk.dk/ under supported projects pool 2, and their post on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/posts/ncc-dk-danmark-cybersecurity-coordination-centre_ncc-dk-netv%C3%A6rksm%C3%B8de-05022025-save-the-activity-7282724478550241280-YCw3 "Sikr" is in Danish pronounced "sikker" which means "safe", and we own the domain sikr.it & sikr-it.dk. We have developed a platform that helps SMEs to get basic CS, in a way that is as easy for the company to implement our products, while it is very non-intrusive and hands-off for us, and while it is as cheap as possible. The problem SMEs have with CS: Complexity and Cost: Many existing IT security solutions are designed for large corporations, making them overly complex and financially out of reach for SMEs.​ Lack of Resources: SMEs often lack dedicated IT departments, leaving them vulnerable to cyber threats without adequate protection or support.​ This issue leaves smaller businesses exposed to cyber risks, with limited options for effective and manageable security solutions, that in theory could have been avoided very easily. Why does this matter? Cybersecurity is not just a concern for large corporations; SMEs are increasingly targeted by cybercriminals, which most often puts them out of business. By providing a user-friendly, and affordable security solutions, Sikr empowers smaller businesses to protect their digital assets, maintain customer trust, and ensure business continuity.
