Supercharging database performance to reduce server costs & server energy consumption. Vesiro is an early-stage startup that is developing an add-on to Elasticsearch to enable much better search performance. The product is in part based on our novel, patented search algorithms. Initial tests on data from Common Crawl (which is the same data used to train ChatGPT) shows that we can cut search times in Elasticsearch by 30-50% depending on search type used. The increase in search speed means that our software enables a more efficient use of servers in Elastic clusters, helping our customers save money on servers. It also means that the software reduces server energy consumption as fewer servers are needed to do the same amount of search. Vesiro was one of 20 companies to be accepted among 2500 companies applying globally to participate in the Norrsken Accelerator 2023. This means that we have been recognized as one of the world’s foremost high potential impact startups. The company is now closing its pre-seed investment round, which means that it has the capital to grow the team to accelerate software development. If you join our team, you will have the opportunity to take ownership in the company through stock options. As an early-stage startup, we have an exciting journey ahead. You will become a part of a small, tight-knit team that is turning innovative ideas into reality with the potential to have a real impact on the world. As one of the first hires, there will be great opportunities to grow in your role as the company grows. We work in central Gothenburg in the heart of the startup scene at Chalmers E-village, among tons of other startups and ecosystem actors.

RightHair is developing a global market and education platform for curly and afro-textured hair to help people and minority women solve the problems of lack of availability of products and services and women's challenges in being financially independent worldwide. Through RightHair we give women all over the world an opportunity to start their own businesses and be financially independent. We do this by creating a software platform to connect freelancers, retailers and hairdressers to their customers. And we top that off with a “skill share” community for education. People with curls and afro textured hair are excluded from offers and services in today's beauty industry. Also, financial abuse is one of the main reasons why women are unable to leave relationships, worldwide. These problems contribute to discrimination in society, that women with minority backgrounds end up outside society and this makes the poor poorer. Women of color are excluded from many of the existing offers worldwide. RightHair solves these problems by creating a market platform where all services and products meet. So that people with curly and afro textured hair always can find something in their area. We also solve women's job and financial challenges around the world by offering a platform on which they can sell their products and services. Here they also get the opportunity to take courses, learn how to start and build a business and collaborate with partners outside their network. RightHair was founded by Lalla Coulibaly and Olimata Jeng who both grew up in Norway with roots from Africa. Due to the lack of offers for themselves and their community, the ladies each started their own platforms. Over the past 5 years, Krølltopp.no and Norwegian Naturals have grown into Norway's largest platforms for curly and afro textured hair with a total of 12,000 monthly users. now the ladies have teamed up to start RightHair as the question they get the most on their platforms is “where can I get my hair cut” and “where can I find products?''. Both ladies want to put time and energy into something that can contribute to women's opportunities and living conditions. This desire comes from their own experience as minority women in Norway with African roots.

We, at Luxreaders, are a young, international, small (but prosperous!) Danish company with our roots in Copenhagen, Denmark. Since 2018, we help people read! With reading glasses as the initial core product, Luxreaders was eventually founded with the ambition of creating a platform, that would transform the way people buy their reading glasses! ... Wait, what? Reading glasses? Yep, you read that correct ;-) And later on, the assortment has expanded to blue light glasses and sunglasses. So how and why do we sell glasses online? Our experience within the optical industry has revealed to us that the market is highly driven by purchasing reading glasses through gas stations, supermarkets and such. These businesses, to a large extent, focus on low prices, high margins and aren't interested in customization when it comes to consumers personal fit, style and quality. We want to change that! Our passion for minimalist, Scandinavian design is the key element expressed through our tailored eyewear. All our glasses are designed in Denmark, where we devote our work to unite new trends with traditional and classic designs. Luxreaders strives to create an experience that is effortless and hassle-free. No more queues, no more settling for cheap over-the-counter glasses that never last or fit well. Although our company is online, we still cherish the aspect of consumers having a personal shopping experience with us.

Management Consultancy Founded in 2016, Personae (pɜː(ɹ)ˈsəʊnai) is a management consultancy that does business transformation on your terms. We are a motley group of highly skilled professionals with the one common goal of finding and releasing the potential in your business and leadership. As outsiders we help spot your opportunities. Once on the inside we help you shape the solutions, create the results as part of the team and reinforce the effects as trusted advisors. In addition to individual competences, our consultants also have deep and diverse experiences from clients in both the public and private sectors. Years of experience. Loads of tools and methodologies. Lots of successful projects. Oh, and yes some failures too. To DO we need to work the WHY before the WHAT – and always be certain of the HOW. And so, we help you understand WHY you need to act by asking the right questions. Remember that your business exists in an everchanging world governed by external factors such as politics and cultures, innovative technologies and a dynamic marketplace and, of course, your customers’ needs and ideas. Some companies struggle to keep pace, others beat the market. Where do you need to be? WHAT then is required to be in that sweet new position or to have those organisational capabilities enabling you to outperform others? Personae helps you develop and adjust the shape and content of your business. This may be the inner workings like the business or operating model, your process landscape or your tech capabilities. Or it may be your teams’ competencies, your products and services or the way you perform as leaders. Or all of the above. Now, understanding the WHY and knowing the WHAT leaves you with the task of getting it done. But going from blueprint to actual operations often leads to a road of failed initiatives or diluted objectives. Personae is born out of a HOW reality. Getting the job done is about the content, the process, and the people – all three areas must be dealt with in a structured manner. We work at a leadership level using change methods and project & programme management techniques to drive the change. We engage all relevant organisational levels in the daily operation to make the change stick and ensure the effect in your business.

We are a creative activity concept for kids aimed to help kids to find their voice through game, art and literature. Last winter as the pandemic was at its worst we decided to write and release a kidsbook as podcast. The idea was to bring some light into kids pandemic-driven days and make the story accessible to all, no matter background. We wrote and recorded it without any professional help as the idea was never to make money of off it. However, a few months later our podcast hit almost 15k downloads. With its roots in our saga we are now launching a full blown activity concept for kids. First out was a creative activity book for kids named Bonki's Adventure. Its already being sold in high-end resellers across Sweden. Now we are looking to expand our team with a AD/designer and a marketing & communications wizard to take us to the next level.
