No competitor comes even close.

Celora Studio

Celora Studio is a start-up from Uppsala, Sweden, who designs, manufactures and sells sound-transparent speaker covers. So that you can show your personality, and design your home the way you like it. Soon we'll be launching Canvas – a speaker cover in a sound-transparent and eco-labelled fabric that allows you to change the color of Sonos One. Our next step is to create speaker covers for more Sonos products, and for other speaker ranges. Our vision is to make electronics something that adds beauty and personality to your home, rather than something you want to hide. And that you should never have to replace electronics just because you don’t like the look of it anymore. So how did we get here? First of all, we have a passion for entrepreneurship and wanted to build a company. A company with a sustainable business model, and where people can be happy and thrive. We also saw that small multi-room and smart speakers are becoming increasingly popular, but they mostly come in black, white and gray. Through qualitative studies we identified the need to change the look of these speakers, and realised it could be done through speaker covers. Since then we have also seen the need to personalise home electronics in general. We hope that being able to change the look of home electronics and applicances will increase their lifespan and reduce waste. This leads us to sustainability, which is an important aspect of what we do. We want to find ways that our business can contribute to the Agenda 2030 goals. Canvas for Sonos One is manufactured under fair working conditions in the EU, using fabric that’s certified according to EU-ecolabel and Indoor advantage gold. We also believe in diversity and fair working conditions at Celora Studio. We’re only two people in the team so far, but we’re diverse when it comes to age and ethnicity. We’re aware of our own biases, and strive to use unbiased and scientifically proven methods in everything from setting salaries to recruitment and promotions.

FUNCiFUR

Welcome to FUNCiFUR and the pet food revolution! Our sole purpose as a company is to contribute to a more sustainable and transparent pet world, where dogs can enjoy nutritious dog food without burdening our planet. FUNCiFUR is a Swedish pet food tech start-up, founded in 2020, when it got to our attention that pets are responsible for 25 % of the global meat consumption - a number expected to increase due to a stronger demand for pet food including “human grade meat”. The pet food industry was in desperate need of a revolution and FUNCiFUR was founded. FUNCiFUR® Dog Food is a complete insect-based dog food, packed with all natural and high quality insect-protein, vitamins, minerals and valuable fatty acids your furry friend needs to stay happy and healthy. While including the highest quality ingredients, insect-based dog food requires dramatically less resources compared to traditional animal protein sources, such as beef, pork and chicken, making it the most sustainable (and arguably also the healthiest) dog food on the market! How pawsome is that?! Together with highly regarded partners, sharing our love for the planet and animal wellbeing, we are driving the pet food revolution - since there is simply no planet B.

AsoY

AsoY is an impact-driven Health-Tech StartUp. Our product is a neuro-intelligent app that builds and strengthens mental health and personal leadership. We challenge a large-scale problem, which is stress that costs somewhere between 10-20 billion kr a year in Denmark alone – not to mention the severe personal costs. When it comes to stress, A FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM IS that it doesn’t follow reason. You cannot rationally decide to get rid of stress, because it messes with your brain by blocking important cognitive functions. SO: to BREAK OUT of stress, you need to BREAK THROUGH these cognitive barriers. AsoY does that with a radically different solution that literally “BLOWS THE MIND”, as it automatically breaks through cognitive barriers. It does that by using an unusually effective and effectful element, which is visual art that operates on the stress’ terms: behind the cognitive system. You don’t have to know ANYTHING about art to feel the effect, because when you look at works of art YOU LIKE, cutting-edge research shows that it immediately lowers cortisol and inflammation levels in your blood, while serotonin and oxytocin boost your energy and calm down your nervous system. Moreover, AsoY is based on founder’s 10 years experience practising as a professional coach & stress coach and her ph.d. on how art automatically affects the brain (from mirror neurons, the limbic system, memory, concentration and focus to the nervous and hormonal system). That combination of theory and practise forms the basis of the app’s 5 simple steps that guide the user with clear instructions and questions to an ultra-personal experience leading to insights which encourage action towards beneficial change, immediate effect and long-term impact. SO, WHEN IT COMES TO BREAKING THE CODE TO MENTAL HEALTH, there is rational evidence for strategically using an irrational element, which most people would consider works of art to be. AsoY invites it’s users to choose a work of art that speaks to them and guides them through a step-by-step process in which they realise that it also speaks about them. They discover that the piece they have chosen mirrors important sides of themselves. The process facilitates direct access to the CORE of the users' personal resources, which they can use in their current situation to address the challenges they face here and now. AsoY EMPOWERS USERS with a daily tool to build long-term personal leadership, reduce stress naturally, break out of it automatically and avoid falling into relapse. We’ve tested the method with a. 1000 people and 90% say that it changes their mental state from unease and overwhelm to peace of mind, mental clarity and the energy to help them focus, prioritise and make decisions about what’s best for them, what makes sense and what makes a noticeable difference in their lives. We are close to our users and witness how they interact with the app, because we use it as tool in workshops and 1:1 coaching sessions. We know it works. Now it’s time to scale it up and let app stand alone. BUT, in order to sell it B2C in its own right and to the B2B clients we already have as well as to the B2G clients, we have in the pipeline, we need to upgrade the simple but fully functional MVP to a full-blown commercial product. THAT' WHY WE ARE LOOKING FOR INVESTORS AND 1-2 TECH CO-FOUNDERS in UX and code, who are: - passionate about the fast-growing market for health tech, digital health, mental health and arts & health, which Google has just launched a large platform to support - attracted to the idea of getting ownership in an impact-driven health tech startup and lifting a proof-of-concept MVP to a commercial product that can reduce stress naturally and automatically and build and track mental health over time. Anonymously, of course. We can get there for a. 70.000 € Get in touch if you are curious to be part of the journey: info@artspeaksofyou.com

Eningo

Eningo, is a Swedish based Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) startup that wants to help the construction and utilities industry on their journey towards digitalisation. We are part of the European Space Agency Business Incubator (ESA-BIC) accelerator program since 2019 and are in a very exciting phase of our start-up journey. The team consists of highly motivated individuals coming from diverse backgrounds and professional domains with a global growth mindset. You will have the opportunity to impact our company and culture from an early stage and create a legacy of your own! We have an ambitious product vision and are building a team around that, in which you will have a key role to play from day one. Our vision is to automate and thereby decentralise the process of locating underground utilities. Today, a request made for information about hidden utility infrastructure on a construction site involves many actors. And can take up to a few days to over a week for information to be given to the requester due to the inefficiencies built into the current process. Our products are developed in-order to streamline and automate this process which reduces the lead times from days to minutes. This also enables full traceability and documentation for each request which in turn facilitates accountability in case of damaged infrastructure. We offer a suite of software products to different actors involved in the process of utility locating. Our founders have previously operated a business that provides utility locating services and have experienced the problems we are addressing first hand. This inefficiency also leads to wasted resources both for the requester(ex. Construction company) and the infrastructure owner, energy companies. We believe, by addressing this problem we will do our bit in helping these stakeholders in reducing their carbon footprint and promote efforts towards positive climate goals. Given their background in building software solutions, they knew there was a better way to do this. Getting customer feedback on this idea helped us validate the business potential even before we registered our company officially back in 2019. Our approach is to create an augmented reality based solution that can deliver information about underground utilities in a matter of seconds, instead of the days of lead times that is common today. This will not only protect the cables and pipes from damage but will increase the efficiency in construction sites.
