Brandog is developing an AI-powered counterfeit detection and enforcement platform to help brand owners solve the problem of online counterfeiting with autonomous scanning agents that find, verify, and take down fakes across 500+ marketplaces — in minutes, not months. Online counterfeiting is a $2 trillion problem. Every brand with a digital presence — from luxury fashion to consumer electronics — faces an endless stream of counterfeit listings across Amazon, AliExpress, eBay, Shopify stores, social media, and thousands of independent websites. Today, brand protection is manual, slow, and expensive. Companies either hire law firms charging $300/hour to file takedowns one by one, or they pay enterprise platforms $50K+/year that still require human analysts to review every detection. Small and mid-size brands simply can't afford protection, and even large brands can't keep up with the volume. The counterfeits multiply faster than humans can find them. Brandog deploys autonomous AI agents that work around the clock. The Scan Agent crawls billions of pages and uses reverse image search across 500+ marketplaces to find listings that match a brand's protected assets. The Vision Agent then uses AI image comparison to score each match with precise visual similarity percentages — not rough guesses. Listings that cross the threshold are automatically escalated. The Enforcement Agent generates and submits takedown requests to platforms. The entire pipeline runs without human intervention. Brand owners upload their product images, set their scan frequency, and the system handles everything — from detection to takedown verification. A dashboard shows real-time results, match scores, seller intelligence, and revenue-at-risk estimates so brands can prioritize what matters most. We watched a friend's small consumer brand get destroyed by counterfeit sellers on Amazon. They spent months manually searching for fakes, filing DMCA complaints, and watching the same sellers pop back up under new names. They couldn't afford the enterprise brand protection tools, and the cheap alternatives were just glorified Google Alerts. We realized that the technology to solve this — computer vision, large language models, automated web crawling — already existed, but nobody had assembled it into something affordable, autonomous, and accessible to brands of any size. That gap between what's technologically possible and what's actually available to brand owners is what drives us. Every day a counterfeit stays live, a brand loses revenue, reputation, and customer trust. We're building the tool we wish existed.

Qallio is an AI-powered receptionist platform built for small and medium-sized businesses. We help businesses never miss a customer call by providing a 24/7 multilingual AI phone agent that answers calls, books appointments, handles customer inquiries, and sends follow-up reminders via SMS and email — all without hiring extra staff.

Customers hear natural, friendly voices in their own language, making every interaction feel personal and professional. Key features include: - 24/7 inbound and outbound call handling - Automated appointment booking, confirmations, and rescheduling - Multilingual support (English and Swedish, and many more languages) - SMS and email reminders to reduce no-shows - Google Calendar and Google Sheets integrations - A simple dashboard to track all calls, bookings, and customer interactions - Full GDPR compliance with data hosted on secure EU servers Qallio works for any business that relies on phone bookings — including clinics, salons, car repair shops, law firms, restaurants, and education centers.

Founded by Rafi Mohammad, Johannes Gontrum, and Mattias Karlsson, Qallio is on a mission to make world-class customer service accessible to every small business in Europe.

Clubmate is a sales and fundraising platform built for sports clubs. Clubs rely on volunteers, spreadsheets, and scattered tools to run lotteries, sell tickets, collect payments, and manage supporters which creating unnecessary admin and lost revenue.

The result: clubs sell more, spend less time on administration, and get clearer control of cash flow.

UNYA Copenhagen is a volunteer-driven youth organization dedicated to empowering young people to engage with global challenges through the lens of the United Nations’ values and the Sustainable Development Goals. We create an inclusive platform where students and young professionals can learn, collaborate, and take action on issues like climate change, social inequality, peacebuilding, and innovation. We are addressing a clear and growing problem i.e. the disconnect between youth and global institutions. Many young people in Denmark care deeply about sustainability and justice but find it difficult to access meaningful opportunities to participate in international dialogue or contribute to real-world impact. This gap leaves motivated individuals without a channel to apply their energy, creativity, and ideas, while institutions miss out on fresh perspectives and engagement from the very generation that will inherit the future. UNYA Copenhagen bridges this divide by turning global ideals into local action. We organize interactive events, workshops, and panel discussions that make complex global topics accessible and relevant. Our activities are co-created by volunteers from diverse academic and cultural backgrounds who bring their own insights to the table. Through collaboration with universities, NGOs, and public institutions, we connect youth directly with experts and decision-makers, fostering a sense of shared responsibility and agency. What makes UNYA Copenhagen unique is our grassroots approach. We are not just an organization — we are a community that thrives on collective energy and creativity. Every project is designed by young people for young people, ensuring authenticity, inclusivity, and long-term motivation. Our strength lies in our diversity and the genuine commitment of our volunteers, who bring the UN’s global mission to life in a way that feels personal and actionable. The motivation behind UNYA Copenhagen is simple: we believe that youth engagement should not be limited to classrooms or conferences but should become a lived experience. We started this initiative because we wanted to make international dialogue tangible, local, and inspiring. Our team members share a passion for learning, community-building, and positive change — values that drive us to dedicate our time to building something meaningful together. Today, UNYA Copenhagen continues to grow as a platform where ideas turn into impact. We are seeking motivated individuals who want to gain experience in leadership, communication, and project management while contributing to a global cause. By joining The Hub’s Community Program, we hope to reach more passionate volunteers who want to be part of a dynamic network that connects Copenhagen’s youth with the world.

Incremental Maritime is developing a digital compliance solution that helps shipowners and operators navigate complex decarbonization regulations; transforming compliance into lower emissions and higher margins. Our deep regulatory expertise, data-driven models, and hands-on client support are what set us apart. Global shipping faces an accelerating tide of climate regulation, from the IMO’s GHG Fuel Intensity targets to FuelEU Maritime and EU ETS. These rules impact everything: fuel costs, asset values, and day-to-day operations. Yet most market players lack the tools and insights to respond; let alone turn compliance into an advantage. This leaves shipowners and operators asking: - What decarbonization investments make financial sense? - How do I reduce risk and avoid penalties? - Can I stay compliant across multiple regimes without extra complexity? - Without smart tools, these questions are hard to answer - and costly to get wrong. Our solution has two core parts: Advisory with immediate impact: We help clients assess regulatory costs, model emissions, evaluate investment cases, and support decision-making from planning to operations. A digital compliance agent (in development): Built on real client work, this tool will combine - Real-time emissions tracking - Cross-jurisdictional compliance logic - Commercial impact analysis - Support from pre-fixture to post-voyage We’re building the go-to compliance engine for modern shipping: one that simplifies decisions, protects margins, and scales with regulation. We launched Incremental Maritime because we saw a blind spot: climate regulation was outpacing the industry’s ability to respond and the result was confusion, cost, and missed opportunity. With experience spanning maritime operations and regulatory systems, we knew we could help. We believe that smarter compliance is not a burden, it’s a pathway to performance. We're here to equip shipping with the tools to decarbonize profitably, one fixture, one voyage, one regulation at a time.
