ProTag is building a Digital Product Passport platform that helps manufacturers and product owners manage and share product data across their supply chains. We solve the growing challenge of fragmented, unstructured information by combining a network-driven SaaS platform with AI that turns messy supplier data into structured, usable product intelligence. Across industries, a new reality is emerging: products are no longer just physical objects, they are data assets. To sell, operate, and scale, companies need reliable information about what goes into their products, where it comes from, and how it evolves over time. The problem is that this data does not exist in one place. It is scattered across suppliers, stored in PDFs, buried in emails, or locked inside disconnected systems. Most companies today are trying to manage this with spreadsheets and manual processes. That might work internally, but it breaks down completely across a supply chain. This creates a structural problem: • Companies depend on data they do not own • Suppliers struggle to provide consistent information • Teams spend significant time chasing, cleaning, and validating data At the same time, external pressure is increasing. Customers, partners, and regulators are all asking for more transparency. What used to be “nice to have” is quickly becoming required to do business. The result is a growing gap between what companies need to know about their products and what they can actually access and trust. ProTag gives companies a way to build a live, structured view of their products across the entire supply chain. Instead of trying to centralize everything manually, we connect the different actors and let data flow where it is created. Companies use ProTag to: • Organize product data in a consistent structure • Request and receive information directly from suppliers • Keep everything updated as products evolve • Share product data with customers and partners when needed AI plays a critical role in making this scalable. We use AI to: • Turn unstructured documents into structured product data • Identify gaps, inconsistencies, and risks in real time • Reduce the effort required to onboard suppliers and maintain data quality What makes ProTag different is how it scales. We are not just building a tool for a single company. We are building a network. When one manufacturer joins ProTag, their suppliers are invited in. When those suppliers join, they can reuse their data across multiple customers. Over time, this creates a shared data layer where: • Information becomes easier to access • Data quality improves naturally • Switching costs increase for everyone involved We do not replace existing systems. We sit on top of them and connect them. This makes adoption fast and reduces friction from day one. We started ProTag because we experienced this problem firsthand. Working in industries with complex products, we saw how much time was spent chasing information that should have been readily available. Engineers, quality teams, and commercial teams were all dealing with the same issue from different angles, but there was no real solution. At the same time, the direction of the market became clear. Transparency around products is increasing, not decreasing. The amount of data required is growing fast. Most companies are not prepared for this shift. We realized this is not just a workflow problem, it is an infrastructure problem. The way product data is managed today does not match how supply chains actually work. That is why we are building ProTag. Our ambition is simple: to become the default way companies manage and share product data across supply chains. Once that layer exists, it unlocks everything else.

Gullis is a sparkling soft drink based on 100% natural juice. We strive to keep as many vitamins and fibers in our drink by using fresh fruit and no added sugars. A note from the founder: I grew up near a quiet orchard where 'luxury' was defined by the quality of a freshly pressed apple. It was simple, raw, and honest. But the modern city life traded that honesty for neon-colored energy drinks and synthetic sodas. In a world obsessed with additives and artificial trends, Gullis Drinks is going back to the source. We believe that nature already perfected the recipe—it’s time we perfected the presentation. The Mission: We’re reclaiming the 'cool' for natural, sugar-free drinks. We’re turning a childhood heritage into Stockholm’s most desired premium brand. The Candidate: We don’t need a traditional manager. We need a Stockholm native who knows every corner of the retail landscape, from urban delis in Vasastan to the major players at ICA and Coop. Someone who has the grit to scale a startup and the style to represent a premium brand. Nature provided the vitamins. We provided the brand. You provide the growth. Let’s make Stockholm real again.

Silicon Valhalla is a Nordic tech intelligence hub that maps startups, founders, investors, and market signals across the Nordic region, with a particular emphasis on AI, SaaS, and frontier innovation. It exists to make the “Silicon Valhalla” ecosystem - Nordic tech’s answer to Silicon Valley - more visible, navigable, and investable for founders, operators, and capital. The platform combines a curated startup directory, an events calendar, and ecosystem insights into a single, neutral entry point for Nordic tech. Startups and scaleups get structured profiles highlighting what they do, where they are based, which sector they play in, and how to reach them, while investors and partners can quickly scan emerging companies across AI, climate, fintech, deep tech, and more. A continuously updated view of companies and activity aims to surface momentum early, so users can spot new categories, breakout teams, and upcoming fundraising stories before they hit the mainstream. Silicon Valhalla is designed to be independent and ecosystem-first rather than a job board or paywalled database. The service is currently free to use, making discovery accessible while opening the door for future premium offerings such as featured profiles, highlighted events, and deeper signal products for investors and corporates. In short, Silicon Valhalla is building the default map and narrative for Nordic tech: a living overview of the startups, talent, and ideas turning the region into one of the most dynamic innovation hubs in Europe.

1. The Elevator Pitch GEIST is developing next-generation sailing apparel for recreational and lifestyle sailors who want protection and freedom on the water—without the bulk, stiffness, or elitist aesthetics of traditional sailing gear. By combining high-performance materials, real-world testing, and community-driven design, GEIST delivers technical sailing wear that enhances the experience instead of getting in the way. 2. The What: What are you solving? Sailing apparel today is largely designed for professional racers or extreme offshore conditions—resulting in garments that are heavy, rigid, over-engineered, and visually disconnected from how most people actually sail. This creates a gap for: - Recreational sailors - Lifestyle / adventure sailors - Coastal and day sailors who want reliable protection from wind, spray, and weather, but also comfort, mobility, and a modern aesthetic they enjoy wearing. As a result, many sailors compromise—either wearing gear that limits movement and comfort, or using outdoor apparel not built for marine conditions. This problem affects a broad and growing segment of sailors globally, especially as sailing increasingly overlaps with outdoor lifestyle, travel, and community-driven experiences. 3. How GEIST is solving it GEIST designs sailing apparel from the experience outward. We start by deeply understanding how our users move, layer, vent heat, and interact with their gear during real sailing scenarios—not idealized ones. From there, we: - Develop function-led designs focused on mobility, breathability, and smart protection - Use premium 3-layer performance fabrics and components chosen for durability, comfort, and sustainability - Prototype early and test continuously with sailors in real conditions - Co-create features, fit, and details with our community rather than designing in isolation Our first products—a sailing jacket and trousers—are built to be worn actively on the water and comfortably before and after, bridging performance and lifestyle without compromise. 4. Why GEIST exists GEIST started from lived frustration. As a sailor and outdoor enthusiast, I repeatedly experienced how traditional sailing gear interrupted the very thing it was supposed to support—the feeling of being present, capable, and free on the water. Gear was either too stiff, too bulky, too aggressive, or simply not designed for how most people sail today. I realized this wasn’t a niche problem—it was systemic. And it wasn’t being solved because the industry hadn’t truly shifted its perspective. GEIST exists to reimagine sailing apparel from the standpoint of experience, movement, and modern sailing culture. It’s about stripping away unnecessary complexity and designing gear that supports focus, confidence, and enjoyment—so when the wind hits, the world narrows, and the gear disappears.

Danish Development Research Network (DDRN) is a non-governmental organization comprising individual and institutional members based in any country. Membership is open to researchers, students, aid practitioners, consultants, private and public entities and others who are involved in the generation, communication and application of knowledge to support sustainable development in the Global South countries. There is a wide gap between North and South in research as a resource for development. According to the UNESCO Science Report 2015, low income countries had 121 researchers per 1 mill. inhabitants, as opposed to high income countries with 3,814 researchers per 1 mill. inhabitants in 2013. During the same year, 1,363,074 scientific articles were published by researchers in OECD member states, as compared to only 3,909 articles by researchers in low income countries. Global challenges call for joint research to retrieve and combine data across North-South divides. The mutual interests between South and North researchers in exploring global solutions set agendas for research beyond conventional development studies. The emphasis in Denmark on innovation holds a potential for a broad engagement with South countries towards the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Research by South researchers working in Denmark provides knowledge resources for South-North public and private partnerships.
