athme is building a category defining app for real world sports and social connection. Our platform makes it easy to discover activities, join games, and build communities through movement. From football, padel, badminton, volleyball, basketball, table tennis, running, fitness, and chess to handball, bouldering, and pickleball, athme helps people find the right activity and the right people to play with. We believe sport is one of the strongest drivers of health, belonging, and community. But for many people, getting active is still harder than it should be. Finding players, organizing games, and joining activities often takes too much effort. athme is built to remove that friction and make sport a more natural part of everyday life. Our mission is to help more people move, meet, and build real connections through sport. We are creating a product with the potential to become a core platform for active communities, starting locally and built to scale.

Acembee is on a mission to bring automation and intelligence to one of the world’s least digitalized industries: construction. Our AI-powered platform tracks activities across construction sites in real-time - replacing manual logging and fragmented data collection with automated, actionable insights. By eliminating spreadsheets, on-site inspections, and follow-up calls, we help contractors save hundreds of hours and make faster, smarter decisions. The result? Lower project costs, reduced CO₂ emissions, and more efficient construction - without adding complexity.

Munchi is building the AI-powered operating system for restaurants. Today, most restaurants run on disconnected tools: one system for POS, another for payments, another for online ordering, loyalty, reservations, kiosks, analytics, marketing, and delivery integrations. These systems rarely communicate with each other, creating operational chaos, poor customer experiences, fragmented data, and lost revenue. Restaurants are expected to operate like modern tech companies, but most still rely on outdated software built decades ago. Munchi solves this by bringing everything into one unified platform. We combine cloud POS, payments, online ordering, self-service kiosks, loyalty, reservations, customer analytics, and AI-driven automation into a single system designed specifically for modern hospitality businesses. Every order and payment becomes connected customer data that restaurants can actually use to grow. Our infrastructure helps restaurants increase repeat purchases, automate operations, understand their customers better, and run more efficiently without needing multiple vendors or complex integrations. But we believe the bigger shift happening is AI. Restaurants and local businesses are entering a new era where AI agents will handle large parts of operations: answering calls, managing bookings, launching campaigns, analyzing performance, handling customer communication, forecasting sales, and eventually helping businesses make operational and financial decisions autonomously. Most businesses are not ready for this transition because their data and systems are fragmented. Munchi is building the infrastructure layer that enables this future. By owning the flow of orders, payments, customer interactions, and operational data, we can power intelligent AI agents directly inside the daily workflows of restaurants. Over time, this evolves beyond software into an AI-native business operating system. Our vision is to become the backbone infrastructure for local commerce globally, where payments, operations, AI, customer engagement, and eventually financial services work together seamlessly inside one platform. Today we focus on restaurants. Long term, we believe the same infrastructure can power millions of local businesses worldwide.

Our carbon emissions are still increasing, and the evidence for dramatic climate change is all around. We want to do our part in solving it. In Europe, 12% of our carbon emissions come from heating our homes - just as much as using our cars. Getting those emissions to zero will be a gargantuan task: retrofitting 90 million buildings across many countries is a hard problem. Lun’s mission is to decarbonise homes faster, by building an operating system for tradespeople in the European energy renovation industry. Our first task is to make heat pump installations an absolute no-brainer for plumbers and electricians.

Resights started with a vision to gather all property data on one platform to save time and improve decisions. No more messy spreadsheets or gut feelings. Today, we're much more than a database: our customers use Resights for everything from finding investment properties to analyzing urban development, automating contact with property owners, and getting an overview of upcoming and current construction projects. The common thread is property and construction data – and how we help our customers drive more business. The reality is, though, that Resights is first and foremost the 50 people behind the software. A bunch of nerdy team players who in 5 years have built one of Denmark's fastest-growing tech startups with +1,400 customers. Without VC money, with a healthy bottom line, and (most importantly) with loads of fun along the way. Our talent comes from professional backgrounds like engineering, music, biotechnology, and real estate. Our youngest employee is 16 years old, meanwhile, we just gifted another employee a game of pétanque for his retirement. Some have higher education, while others didn't pass elementary school. But we don't care. That's the Resights we want to build – a place where everyone brings their true self to work and knows they can achieve whatever success they strive for. We're located on Borgergade right in the city centre, with everything you need: free lunch, a kitchen jam-packed with food, cold beverages, fruit, and a great coffee machine. The office vibe ranges from fierce Mario Kart battles to blind tastings and the sound of a gong when new sales are made. People choose to come in because this is genuinely a place you want to spend your day – high spirits, compelling problems, and dedicated colleagues. We believe benefits are more than free beers and a market-rate paycheck. While we check those boxes (😉), the most important benefits speak to you on a deeper, more personal level. At the end of the day, we're a business, not a family. But we still like to have fun together. Outside of work, we travel, celebrate, exercise, and laugh together. It's not mandatory, but it's pretty natural for us.

Meili FMS is a fleet manager for mobile robots with a vendor-agnostic approach. It enables operators to collate their diverse fleet onto one platform. By using Meili FMS, our users can finally use their mobile robot fleet to its full potential by orchestrating their fleet as a collective, regardless of the robot’s application, brand, or type. Our main mission is to eliminate interoperability pain points that have started to cast a shadow over the robotics industry. With more businesses adopting robots to carry out inventory management, material handling, and other applications, fleets are becoming more diverse. Robot manufacturers can hardly keep up with this growing demand, which means that companies will be deploying robots from various brands — with different operating systems. This is where the problem arises. Currently, robot manufacturers develop their own FMS, which means minimal to no correlation between systems. In other words, the robots cannot communicate amongst each other, causing delays in operations, accidents, and collisions — ultimately increasing operation costs while diminishing safety and efficiency substantially. Frightfully, this problem may cripple the whole supply chain, with business owners starting to question their decisions on expanding operations with robots — as a result, stagnating the entire mobile robot market. There is a need for a universal third-party solution that can bridge the gap and enable seamless operation for the robots to function collectively rather than individually. At the same time, by having an overview of the whole fleet, robot management becomes much more effective. And that’s where we come in, with several important features: automated traffic control, smart task allocation algorithms, operator analytics, and unified mapping. With Meili FMS’s automated traffic control feature, robots in the same environment will operate in a safer and more organised manner — not only between individual robots but also between them and human-operated vehicles. Too often do robots navigate the facilities without a payload as the current solutions do not facilitate task queuing effectively, therefore wasting energy by needless travel or lengthy idle time. Using smart tasking algorithms, Meili FMS can help improve companies’ sustainability records as the robot fleets will no longer operate without a payload and wasting any energy. Furthermore, our pricing plans are very accessible to early-stage or small businesses. This will definitely lower the entry barriers, allowing businesses of any size to start investing in robots and automation, which facilitates the growth of the robotics industry.
