We are a new social startup named ColouReef and we are going to rethink and innovate the fashion industry. As you probably know, the fast fashion industry has a more negative impact on our environment and society than it does good. Being one of the most polluting ones, the industry emits more CO2 into the atmosphere than international flights and maritime shipping combined. Moreover, it is a water-consuming giant that is responsible for 20% of all industrial water pollution worldwide. Additionally, fast-fashion companies that produce garments in the global south, are profiting by exploiting local labour and nature. Fast fashion is the problem. Ever changing trends, consumerism and the fear of being left out, affects people psychologically, as fashion collections’ frequency jumped from 2 to 4 per year in 2000 to 12, 16 and sometimes 24 different collections per year in 2019. As a result, in 2014 to compare with 2000, on average people bought 60% more clothes and kept them just half as long. Consequently, this behaviour created another major problem of the industry – waste. Around 85% of the textile ends up in landfills or being burned, while barely 15% are recycled. In 2017 – 16.9 million tons of textile was produced, and only 2,6 million tons were recycled. The problem is, that many consumers in the global North are being held as hostages by the fast fashion trends, without many, if any, sustainable alternatives. This is our solution to the problems above: • To create a fashion rental service based on a circular economy, that allows customers to own different garments by paying a monthly subscription. In this way we will be able to reduce the impact of the fast fashion while allowing people an opportunity to change their outfit and style more often. • We will offer clothes ONLY from sustainable companies, which care about our planet and everyone living on it. Meaning that clothes will need to be produced sustainably and ecologically and/or contain recycled fabrics, as well as not to exploit labour within their supply chain. • Damaged and worn out clothes will be returned back to the clothing brand to upcycle or will be recycled and/or upcycled locally by ColouReef. This way we will fight together the problem of enormous waste caused by the industry. • We will change the habits of the consumers, by providing an alternative to own and wear sustainable clothing for a period of time instead of owning cheap and vastly produced fashion garments. At the same time, we will educate our customers about the damages that the textile industry is doing to our environment. • As the name of our company implies, we want to help to protect coral reefs that are on the verge of extinction. Coral reefs are a vital part of the whole underwater ecosystem. Warming ocean and ocean acidification are two of the main reasons why corals are bleaching and dying around the world. Besides our effort to transform the fashion industry into a more sustainable version of it, we will also support selected NGOs that are fighting against coral extinction. We are looking for people thinking in the same way, seeing the problems and wanting to solve them by disrupting the fashion industry.

Sedan urminnes tider har människor använt sig av det talade ordet för att berätta historier som förts vidare från generation till generation. Föräldrar har berättat historier för sina barn, mor- och farföräldrar har visualiserat sina äventyr med hjälp av ord. De senaste århundradena har det talade ordet ersatts av berättande genom bilder och videos. Det är såklart fantastiskt men tänk om man kunde kombinera bild med ljud och låta människan bakom faktiskt tala genom bilden? Det är precis vad vi på Spoken Pictures har gjort! Hos oss kan kunden skapa ett digitalt fotoalbum där denne ger en röst till varje bild. Det går att ladda upp ljudfiler, tala in direkt i albumet eller skriva korta förklarande texter. Albumen blir unika, personliga och känsloladdade. Vi vill hjälpa andra att fortsätta dela sina berättelser med generationer framåt. Spoken Pictures lanserades januari 2020 (www.spokenpictures.se) som en webbapp. Erbjudandet består av att tillhandahålla marknaden en möjlighet att skapa en digital foto & ljud album som sen kan sparas alternativt delas via mail eller olika sociala medier.

Kindernay has developed the world's first, light-weight, robust, and reliable substitute to derailleurs. The Kindernay XIV. The story of Kindernay is a story about passion for cycling and new technologies. We ride trail, DH, freeride, enduro, XC, transport, and road bikes. Sometimes we ride hard, sometimes for fun. We’ve won national level races, and we’ve crashed. Sometimes we break stuff: bikes, parts, and legs. Beside, we’re also engineers, and have decades of experience in the development of complex mechanical devices. Our inventions are on the seabed, terra firma, and in space too. And we’ve delved deep, to bring about innovative transmission parts for automotive brands such as Porsche AG, VAG, and BMW, and heavy truck makers, like MAN, Daimler-Benz, Volvo, and Scania. But that’s another story. We are cyclist and we love our bikes… but we also want them to be better. We believe in a world where gear systems are internal; and here we are, having developed the worlds first, light-weight, robust, and reliable, real substitute to derailleurs. The Kindernay XIV. Kindernay is a registered trademark of CA Technology Systems AS, a limited liability corporation registered in Norway.

The Ode To is online art gallery that's creating an affordable, relaxed and modern way of buying art. We are your eyes in the art world, spotting talent and thoughtfully curating a special selection of contemporary pieces. From sculptures and objects to paintings and drawings, we collect and present one-of-kind, original artworks by some of the most talented artists around. Each piece is handmade especially for us. The Ode To was founded 2018 by friends Helena Carlberg and Anna Lukins. We are both passionate collectors of aesthetically pleasing things, sharing an obsession for art and interior. We got tired of our cheap old posters but found art galleries to be intimidating and expensive. So, we ended up spending a lot of time looking for those special pieces in the most peculiar places. This life-long rummaging (as well as our careers in the fashion industry) has really taught us to spot those true treasures, which is reflected in our online gallery. WE’RE TAKING ART INTO A NEW ERA AND YOU CAN BE PART OF THE FUN, DIFFICULT, CREATIVE AND MEANINGFUL CHALLENGE OF BUILDING SOMETHING NEW AND UNPRECEDENTED. The Ode To has quickly carved out a special place with a unique customer offer, hyped brand position and growing sales. Sometimes the customer demand for handmade art feels insatiable (which is a good thing really) and now we’re growing our team to get the capacity to meet it. We’re aiming to create the world’s leading online gallery for affordable art and you’ll be part of shaping and building it with us. But let’s be real, creating something new can be a bumpy ride. At times there will be mundane tasks, abstract briefs and definitely some trial and error. However, there will be space for your ideas and you’ll be breaking new ground. You’ll learn all the aspects of building a company and a brand, plus you’ll get personal responsibility and the potential to influence from the very beginning. Are you an art nerd? Probably not, but you’re driven by taking a stuffy industry into a new era and like to be in a creative environment while doing it.
