Repasdo

The whole world is striving with textile waste! Most circular economy-based action plans are mostly based on recycling and sorting and not repairing, re-making, re-using and sharing. How can we combine sustainability, circular economy and women empowering in one practical local and global plan? In today textile market, clothing and textile sales rises while clothing usage has steadily declined! While the cost of repair service is high, the number of service providers is also very limited and considering all thrift solutions, the majority of secondhand materials are still going to Lindfield while it can be used as material. And as the last leg of this international picture, today's available solutions are mostly based on recruiting service providers instead of giving them the opportunity to be the owner of their business which make the sustainability of those models strictly dependent on the those business owners instead of relying on the owners of the practical knowledge and craft. Repasdo is a marketplace for unique, creative services of textile and relevant secondhand materials. It’s home to people providing special, extraordinary services and products, from repaired pieces to handcrafted and vintage treasures. While today’s main trend is into secondhand shopping online solutions, Repasdo focus is to provide possibility to create ‘added value’ instead of pure thrift store business model. By providing business and market opportunity (online store + learning, low cost material & equipment) to potential service providers, secondhand textile can be repaired or be used as raw material for new product (in as many different ways as service providers can manage to come up with). Repasdo Platform (as the first in its market) is to provide a platform for creating jobs, micro and small businesses (own by service providers) while providing practical learning and access to different type of secondhand textile as material and online stores as places for those businesses to thrive. We are three co-founders with background in strategic business and organizational development, application and software development, and fashion design and learning. In addition two of us have long years of experience in humanitarian aid organizations and woman empowering programs. We have strong believe in sustainability and circularity not in relation with of product and service, but as the sole practical concept and business model

Together, they decided to help reduce carbon dependency by accelerating the renewable energy market. At Celxius, we believe our future on this planet in jeopardy.

Money laundering is a growing societal problem that annually costs Danish society between 34-59 billion or 1.7-2.9% of GDP. Besides the cost side of that, it creates a great inequality and leads to corruption which undermines society as a whole. Today the money laundering problem is rapidly increasing as the number of wanted individuals have been rising exponentially. ARIIA is a fintech company that develops an innovative IT solution to fight money laundering and financial crime. This solution enables banks and AML (Anti Money Laundering) regulated companies to ensure that they are not facilitating or involved directly or indirectly in such affairs.

Safeguard and peace of mind. Protecting from fines and reputational risks in an absolutely new level. With our cutting edge technologies we are able to uncover complex business structures that mask criminals or compromised individuals' participation, obscure connections, facilitation schemes and much more. Our cutting edge technologies: Central Knowledge Graph. The traditional method of screening is to make “lookups” vs sanction and watch lists. However the world is about connections and relationships. Our Central Knowledge Graph is a whole connection´s universe where we analyze companies and owners using interactive visual network. Interconnected Single Data Lake. Traditional approach is to work with siloed datasets that are updated one by one (often manually). We process many databases (bank data, public data, sanction lists, etc.) in a data model, which makes it possible to find far more contexts and connections vs traditional approach. And web crawlers that run 24/7 pulling the most recent up-to-date information from vetted sources. Intelligent Screening AI/ML Traditional approach includes rules engines and a lot of manual work that generates inconsistencies for the overall process and other limitations. We move from Rules Engines to ML models that learn from patterns, improve with feedback loops thus improving accuracy rates as well as ensure consistency in the process that is crucial for passing the audit from regulators. In a nutshell: ARIIA is the innovative, adding-value solution for KYC screening, transaction monitoring, AML compliance and risks identification in a single, intuitive platform. ARIIA are currently looking for funding opportunities to develop the MLP to the next level.

Poikilingo

Poikilingo is developing a language learning app for small children (2 - 6 years old), where social and cultural awareness are at the heart of our concept. Our program focuses on the cultural aspects of the language being learned, as we believe that cracking the social code is as important as learning vocabulary and pronunciation. This promotes a sense of belonging which will positively impact the child's learning process. Each child is unique, so each of them deserves a study program that takes into consideration their peculiarities. The customized study plan that childre get at Poikilingo mixes activities, videos, songs and games, and if the child makes mistakes, she gets feedback in her native tongue. We follow a consolidated learning approach that teaches different subjects through the language, all created by educational experts and aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Goals. But the game-changing experience that Poikilingo brings into the market is based on animated stories where an avatar of the child goes through everyday situations that children go through, including when they move to a new country and have to start into a new kindergarten.

Z:Live ApS

During the covid pandemic live shopping on Facebook has boomed like crazy and the future looks even more promising in this market. We have developed a robot that takes care of all the administrative work for the retailers doing live shopping. From answering comments, sending messages in Messenger with payment links and keeping track of the inventory and orders , everything administrative is taken care of with the Z:Live robot. It all started with a distressed mother in law who was doing live sales and spent at least 3-4 hours after each ended live shopping event getting a hold of all the information, payments and such. She called one day and wanted to know if could be done any easier and from that phone call, Z:Live was born as we could see the potential in the market besides just her.
