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.

We are enabling the mounting of solar systems in fragile or challenging terrains. Current mounting structures are based on pile ramming, concrete or similar solutions. This limits the number of locations for ground mounted solar systems or makes it very expensive to build these systems. These systems are also very labour intensive, making it difficult to develop solar systems in locations where labour is hi-cost. Since current mounting structures is best for large flat areas, these systems also face competition for other purposes also valuing large flat areas. This makes the alternative cost of the area rather high. We are aiming on mitigating these challenges with our mounting system, opening for larger solar systems in areas that until now have been deemed not suitable. This because the soil conditions are too difficult, the terrain demands too much soil cultivation making the cost high either economical or ecological, the labour cost is too high, or the flat and open landscape is prioritized for other purposes than solar systems. We are not competing with existing mounting system, but opening new possibilities for more solar energy worldwide.

At HeyCompanion, we’re transforming the way people interact with streaming content. Viewers today constantly reach for their phones while watching TV — 86% use a second screen, and 69% say they want instant answers about what they see. Every time they leave to search, streaming platforms lose attention, data, and potential revenue. We solve this by turning distraction into engagement. HeyCompanion is an AI-powered discovery layer that lets viewers instantly explore and act on what’s on-screen — actors, outfits, locations, and products — all in real time, without leaving the story. Our technology bridges the gap between attention and discovery, giving viewers interactive context while helping streaming platforms reduce churn, increase retention, and unlock new commerce opportunities. By analyzing what people watch and what they discover, we generate unique behavioral insights that help platforms understand audience intent — something traditional analytics can’t capture.

We design and implement AI systems that are cost-effective, secure, and directly aligned with their workflows, from reducing customer support costs by 10x to automating time-consuming financial processes.

FUSE is a Danish startup on a mission to reinvent how we consume energy. We combine caffeine and essential vitamins in small, great-tasting powder sticks that can be easily mixed with water anytime, anywhere. The idea behind FUSE came from a real need. As students and young professionals, we constantly found ourselves relying on energy drinks to stay focused and keep going. But the products available were either filled with sugar, came in bulky cans, or simply didn’t feel like something we wanted to put into our bodies. We created FUSE to offer a clean, portable and transparent alternative to traditional energy products. Each stick fits in your pocket and delivers a refreshing, sugar-free boost when mixed with water. No fridge needed, no crash afterward, and no guessing what’s inside. Just clean energy, wherever you are. Our target group is made up of young, active individuals who need focus and energy throughout the day during studies, workouts, events or long shifts at work. We aim to remove the friction of staying energized in a busy everyday life by offering a product that is both practical and trustworthy. At its core, FUSE solves three main problems: traditional energy products are inconvenient to carry, often packed with sugar and additives, and not transparent about their ingredients. We solve this by being light, clean and clear. As we continue to grow, our goal is to build a community of ambitious people who want to perform at their best without compromising on health or convenience.
