MĀDI

MĀDI was created with the mission to reduce textile waste in the fashion industry and change consumer behavior. We want to give clothing brands a new perspective on customer data to help them make better data-driven decisions throughout their business operations. Furthermore, we want to make it easier for consumers to act with a circular mindset when it comes to their clothing and closet items through resale, repair, and recycling. The Digital ID is attached to individual products, allowing brands to follow the lifecycle of their garments after they are sold. This opens up new business opportunities with new options for their customers, as well as gives their brand credibility and reduce counterfeit risks through authentication. The industry is changing, where digitization can be leveraged to help brands be resilient to the changing economy and environment. By engaging the consumer to shift their behavior in how they use products and after-use activities, we can transform the fashion industry to reduce textile waste.

Explained

Explained is a visual data storytelling studio that helps organizations, newsrooms and other businesses communicate their data to their audience visually and inclusively. What: Currently, media and businesses communicate and inform their audience primarily through video, audio, or text.  These methods however have limitations when communicating data and make data inaccessible. How: We use visual data storytelling to understand complex data and turn it into clear, engaging, actionable insights and visually appealing stories. We use inclusive techniques to make our stories accessible and include a wider audience. Why: We understand the world best when it's explained visually.  Understanding today's world starts with understanding data. Globally, one in four people has some form of vision impairment that makes it difficult to understand the current communication formats. We believe in visual storytelling and are experts in this niche field. We have created many projects on different topics and have communicated them successfully with our audience. We have also built a community around visual data storytelling.

Intertalents in Sweden

We are Intertalents in Sweden, and our mission is to empower foreign-born professionals towards career success in Sweden. We are a team of three co-founders who have a passion for giving international talents a guiding light on integration into the Swedish workforce. Read our story here: https://intertalentsinsweden.com/about/ We provide high-quality learning material via online courses and e-books that is simple, lean and effective to guide and empower foreign-born professionals towards career success in Sweden.

Students are seeing changes for the first time in their circumstances in sometimes years of struggle in Sweden. Over 60% of our testing group saw immediate, tangible, and measurable results within one week of testing our strategies. Out of 11 beta testers with our first course, 4 landed a new job within 1-2 months of completing the course.

Book My Ride

Introducing Book My Ride Book My Ride began with a simple mission — to help local taxi companies compete in a world dominated by global ride apps. We noticed that most taxi companies in Sweden still run everything manually. Calls come in, staff write down addresses, and drivers wait for instructions — a process that costs fleets hundreds of thousands of kronor every month and often frustrates passengers with delays or missed rides. We believed there had to be a smarter way. That’s where Book My Ride comes in. We’ve built two connected products that work hand in hand to modernize the taxi industry. Our first product is an AI-powered Dispatch System that replaces call centers entirely. It can take bookings through phone, chat, email, app, or website — just like a human operator, but faster and cheaper. Taxi companies get their own white-label passenger app, branded in their name, and a powerful backend that automates the entire flow from booking to dispatch. Many fleets, like MiniTaxi in Gothenburg, now save over 260,000 SEK each month by switching to Book My Ride. Our second product is the Book My Ride Marketplace — Sweden’s first nationwide taxi marketplace. It brings together fleets from across the country, allowing passengers to compare, choose, and book rides in one place. The marketplace gives smaller companies visibility and new customers they would never reach alone, while giving passengers more choice and transparency. Together, these two products create a complete ecosystem — where taxi companies can operate efficiently with AI, and passengers can find rides anywhere in Sweden through a single app. Book My Ride was founded by Karthik Sengottaian, who saw firsthand how much time and money local fleets were losing just to keep up with everyday bookings. His goal was simple: to give every taxi company, no matter its size, access to the same technology that powers the biggest players — but with full ownership, control, and a local touch. Today, we’re live with multiple fleets across Gothenburg and Stockholm and are preparing to scale across Scandinavia. Book My Ride is redefining what it means to run a taxi company — AI-powered, fully digital, and proudly Swedish.

HEMBOO

We are HEMBOO: an early stage start-up with the vision of making low emissions, renewable materials the norm in construction. Besides fossil fuels, the production of concrete is the worst emitter of CO2 in the world. However it is the most used material within the construction sector. But not for long: climate legislation is about to make concrete a whole lot more expensive, by introducing a CO2 TAX. This leaves the construction companies with a problem as there is no valid sustainable alternative they can use. HEMBOO offers an easy solution: prefabricated walls for new construction made of hemp and bamboo with a reduction of 80% CO2 emitted compared to the traditionally used concrete walls. BUT the construction industry is very conservative and risk-averse. Therefore getting to market is a long journey. We built our first prototype are now preparing for the second one and are gathering data on the needs of our customers. Our aim is to provide a solution similar enough in prefabrication and installation methods, to make the transition from concrete fast and easy. Our element is designed for large scaled production so that we can have the largest impact. Recently we have received a total of 520.000 dkk in soft funding for product development and are participating in multiple startup support programs so it is full speed ahead! The team behind it all: We are a diverse team of three, Elsa Maria Iuliano, Helena Brandt Rejndrup and Michael Hallam. Helena and Elsa graduated as architectural engineers from DTU while Michael is finishing up his studies in design and entrepreneurship. We started HEMBOO because we are all very passionate about making an environmental impact. As a team we have a lot fun together, while still being productive. We emphasize a friendly environment where we help each other even though everyone has individual responsibilities. Currently looking to expand and we want you to be a part of it! Reach out if you are interested in getting on board. We are particularly interested in commercial, communication and financial competencies. Based in our joint office spaces in the center of Copenhagen and at CBS in Frederiksberg. And yes they do they do have Friday bars :-) Feel free to contact us with any questions!

Wavy Wonders ApS

We're on a journey to introduce seaweed as a natural part of nordic food - first by way of a sustainable, nutritious, ready-to-eat snack product. Each bite begins with a crispy lightness followed by a wholesome, satisfying crunch, crafted in a selection of familiar flavors - done a little differently. The Why: By 2050, the world is required to produce at least 50% more food and do so while achieving 'Net Zero' carbon emission according to the UN. Seaweed has unique properties in that it can be grown on lines of rope in the ocean, with no requirement for artificial inputs (fertiliser, fresh water, light). The output is nutritious seaweed that is stock full of essential vitamins (A, D, E, B1, B2), Iron, Calcium, and Omega-3 fat - usually only found in fish. And there's more - seaweed also sequesters about 5x as much CO2 as land-based plants. In short, seaweed can be part of the solution for some of the world's largest issues. Our dream, is to create local demand, for locally produced seaweed, to support foods of the future and Danish companies.

UNNA

UNNA is a new startup in active fashion wear which is currently looking for purpose driven interns within communication and ecommerce to join the team on an expansive and fun journey in the D2C segment.

Therefore we’ve created UNNA, a brand that offers a playful, functional and elegant all-around style to everyone. A company that values wellbeing over performance and a sportswear community for people rather than athletes. Behind the brand are passionate movers like previous founder of L’HOMME ROUGE (Brand of the year at Nordiska Kompaniet and winner of the International Woolmark Prize), John-Ruben Holtback, design studio Figur and Frida Hjelte(previously ecommerce at Acne Studios).

Biosphere VR

Our goal at Fox Documentaries is to bring the impacts of climate change closer to those who see it as a distant problem. We take viewers around the world and show them first hand how climate change is already bringing devastating challenges for the worlds most vulnerable communities. Fox Media Documentaries is a forward-thinking and pioneering Danish Documentary company based in central Copenhagen (Christianshavn). We work on developing artistic VR documentaries that have both an emotive and educational impact on audiences. Our newest venture, Biosphere VR ( www.biospherevr.com ), consists of five different cinematic VR-experiences that connect spectators with the climate change crisis through immersive technology. Each of the five experiences is seen through the eyes of a particular local individual (narrator) in Beijing, Jordan, Ethiopia, Kiribati and Morocco. See more here: https://www.biospherevr.com/#biosphere. Each VR-experience runs between 5 and 10 minutes and engages audiences on a deeply personal and emotional level. Simultaneously, the five VR-experiences effectively tap into the fundamental consequences of global warming and provide clear and engaging educational content. These experiences have already received a significant commendation at many highly acclaimed international film festivals including VR Days, COP: DOX and Cinequest Film and VR. In addition, Biosphere’s five individual VR experiences have so far been tested in two different educational institutions: Maglegaard School in Denmark, and Learning Lab at Tsinghua University in Beijing (China). Both tests have produced impressive results, with all spectators reporting an increased motivation for learning following their engagement with Biosphere VR. We have also conducted workshops in the US and at COP-summits. For further information about our educational project, please visit ://www.biospherevr.com/introduction-in-the-school#new-page-35https. In addition to the five existing experiences we have produced, we are interested in producing more stories in other parts of the world: including Germany, the Netherlands, the Arctic, among many others. We also intend to conduct more workshops in order to raise awareness of the climate change crisis, as well as to encourage and inspire more climate change initiatives. We are also looking to expand into museums and to conduct exhibitions. Our current focus is to establish partnerships with foreign governments to provide funding for future productions related to climate change in the developing world.
