My name is Steven John Widecrantz. I am a Urologist at Sealand University Hospital in Roskilde Denmark. For 16 years I have been treating Kidney Cancer Patients, but in recent years I have also been in charge of postoperative complications and seriously ill patients in my department and lately also in the treatment of Corona-patients. In this capacity, I have encountered patients so weakened by months of inactivity in bed, that former healthy patients couldn’t stand on their own feet or even sit up by means of their own. They had an immense loss of muscle-mass and the malnutrition even affected their brain function. Training and mobilizing these patients is difficult and time consuming. To overcome some of these obstacles I invented the “Dr. Stevens Pillow”-system. It is made up of a system of pillows with different resistance, carefully selected in collaboration with experienced physiotherapists to meet the requirements at the different stages of the patients recovery. The pillow is placed in the foot end of the patients bed and the patient, the staff and the patients family are instructed in different exercises by the physiotherapist. The pillow can then be placed in the bed by the patient, the staff or by the family whenever the patient feels like training or when encouraged to do so, supplementing the daily training by the physiotherapist. The pillows will, with the right instruction, strengthen the patients foot-, calf- and thigh-muscles, and it will strengthen the buttocks, the stomach-muscles and the back-muscles. Secondary to strengthening the muscles, the training improves blood circulation thereby improving muscle-nutrition, wound-healing and the heart. Training also aids in prevention of blood-clots. Lung function is improved, lung problems prevented, and more oxygen provided to the bloodstream. Bedsores will also be prevented or healing improved. The patients appetite is improved providing building materials for muscles and healing, and nausea is prevented. Psychologically the patient is strengthened by being activated opposed to lying inactive in bed all day. The possibility to influence their own recovery will motivate the patients to train more. When the patient is exhausted, the pillow is just removed, and the patient can rest. The pillows are made of durable materials that can withstand daily use, and the fabric is hospital standard and easy to wash and disinfect for use for the next patient. No handles are added to ensure easy and safe cleaning. The weight makes them easy to transport. The pillows come in four different colors: Green for the weakest patients. Blue for patients that can sit, but not stand. Red for patients that can stand with the help of a roller. Black for patients that are able to walk a few steps, but still need to build strength. The Black pillow can even be used at home, where it can also be used as a step-machine, a training bench and much more. The size make it easy to store in a wardrobe. The “Dr. Stevens Pillow”-system is so simple to use, inexpensive and versatile, that it can be used in almost any setting: Hospitals around the world, Refugee-camps, Retirement-homes, Hospices etc.

Plastic waste and single-use packaging is one of the great unsolved problems for our planet. In Denmark, we produce 844KG of household waste annually per person. Most of this packaging is used for food and beverage products and it is an increasingly large environmental challenge. At Cirqle we are driven by our mission to make single-use a thing of the past and make reuse packaging the norm. Reusing packaging reduces the impact, and greatly minimizes the natural resource use of packaging. With our pioneering reuse packaging service and technology platform, we make reuse a reality for companies in the food and beverage industry. We are already breaking new ground with our meal-kit service, but the sky's the limit when it comes to reuse packaging. With partners we cover the full supply chain from packaging production and software development to sanitation and logistics making sustainability the easy choice for our customers.

Lalatoys is a new startup, building a sharing economy retail service for children’s toys. The concept is simple: you sign up and pick the toys you want to play with. Whenever the toy becomes needless for your child, send it back and get something else. Billions of dollars are put into the children's toy market yearly, and of these, millions of unwanted toys are send to landfills every year. What is even worse is that a high amount of children's toys are produced from non-biodegradable plastic. By swapping instead of shopping, we can let our children play in a more eco-friendly way. We launched in Marts 2021 and spend more than a year to adapt and develop the concept to fit the market. Now we have had +1000 subscribers and expect to grow steady through the next year! Aside for daily operation and development of the platform and its features which is essential for us to be a scalable business. The idea started, when I, Dinesan, became father for the first time last year. We bought a lot of toys for our daughter (and still do), but in the end it showed that most of the toys our daughter didn't play with after a very short period - it was quite frustrating that we spend money of something, we either would loose money on reselling and would pile up together with the rest. Currently we are three people in the team: Dinesan Rasiah (Founder - CEO) Christian Nielsen Henriksen (Co-founder CTO) Nicolai Varney (CMO) Jannie Varaney (COO)

We are a team of experts and entrepreneurs. We spent years in the financial industry and in the startup ecosystem of Europe. Through the years we have seen startups fail and succeed — and one determining factor of their fate has been repeatedly their access to capital. A good idea, a good team or the right timing are important determinant of the success rate, but if there is no fuel in the form of capital and cash flow, no matter how great the idea, the company will fail. Startups and companies often turn to angel investors, venture funds or accelerators to supply growth, however for this they would have to give up large chunks of ownership of their companies, chunks that could be worth a lot more with time. On the other hand, investors wouldn’t provide capital unless there is market validation in the form of paying customers. Applying for loans at commercial banks is tough. The application process takes months and approval rates are low. Personal guarantees, collaterals, securities, and additional fees apply. All these forms of financing don’t support the growth trajectory of an early business — they come with too many terms and conditions, restrictions and legal mumbo-jumbo. Our solution: Kvikk. With our network of investors, we raised a small fund that enables us to discover and fund promising early businesses — and work with them on the long term. With public and private data banks we built a machine learning based assessment algorythm that classifies businesses based on data retrieved through commercial, payment and analytics APIs.

The only thing more important than your time is what you spend it on! Our mission is to allow small and medium-sized business owners to save time and focus on what is truly important: growing their business. Instead of spending their time on day-to-day administration and management work. We do this through digital transformation and process automation. A lot of businesses have amazing potential that is not being utilized because day-to-day operations are taking up most of the time that otherwise could’ve been invested in developing new business ideas and income opportunities. In a large part, the reason for this rising potential is the technological advancement we have seen over the past few years. Although it is creating opportunities, a lot of companies have a hard time adapting their operational and administrative processes to this new way of doing business. As mentioned our whole reason for existence is to help companies go through digital transformation, to set themselves free of their old inefficient processes. We use a combination of different frameworks from the fields of Business Process Management and Software Development to tailor digital processes 100% to our client´s workflows, management and operations. The nature of our work can described as two integrated phases that each brings a unique value to our client. The first phase is all about in-depth analysis of current processes, painpoints, operation dynamics and redesign of these from a digital perspective adding the technological aspects. The second phase is related to developing the actual automation software, scripts, integrations and business logic using the technologies. There is a catch though: in the second phase, the first phase is actually repeated – the closer we work with the technical development the more opportunities arise along the way, which usually allows us to optimize the processes even more than expected. How and why did it start? “The only thing more important than your time is what you spend it on.” I realized this when I was 16, working a boring data entry job. At that time, I had already moved out and really had to learn how to prioritize my time. My main goal and dream was to become a professional basketball player and this repetitive, boring job was just taking away my valuable time, which I could otherwise be spending at the gym. For the first time in my life, I had too many goals but too little time. So I decided to change that. What started as a few formulas and scripts to automate my data entry, quickly turned into an app, which turned into 5 apps, and by the time I was 18 turned into my own company. I realized how small and medium-sized business owners face the same issue I was facing – too many goals, but too little time. And the solution: process automation and digital transformation. 2 years later and counting, I am running a company of process specialists, analysts, consultants, developers, and technical writers to help companies and business owners create more time for what is truly important. The journey has been awesome, but to be honest it is not all about the success. Just like I see companies as a bunch of processes, I also see life as a process – a learning process! Most importantly, this journey has brought me amazing knowledge and experience, which I would never give up for anything, and it shaped into the fearless person I am today. For me, life is about challenging yourself and learning from it – throw yourself into the deep end yet learn to survive! I will say it one more time: "The only thing more important than your time is what you spend it on!" Feel free to connect and get a cool conversation started!
