Treesy ApS er en dansk climate tech-startup, der gør det nemt, billigt og gennemskueligt for privatpersoner og virksomheder at tage konkret klimahandling gennem træplantning i Tanzania. Mange mennesker og virksomheder ønsker at gøre noget for klimaet, men oplever i dag, at løsningerne er uoverskuelige, dyre, abstrakte eller svære at stole på. Samtidig vokser både klima- og biodiversitetskrisen, og behovet for skalerbare, troværdige og handlingsorienterede løsninger er større end nogensinde. Treesy er skabt for at fjerne barriererne for klimahandling. Vi tilbyder en enkel abonnementsbaseret model, hvor kunder planter træer som en konkret måde at reducere og balancere deres klimaaftryk. Vores tilgang er baseret på konservative beregninger, radikal transparens og lokal forankring. Alle træer plantes i samarbejde med lokale partnere i Tanzania og bliver: • individuelt geo-tagget • monitoreret mindst fire gange årligt • passet og genplantet i op til tre år efter plantning Vi planter et diversificeret mix af træer med fokus på både klima, biodiversitet og lokal økonomi. Det betyder, at vores indsats ikke kun handler om CO₂, men også om at styrke økosystemer, skabe lokal indkomst og opbygge mere robuste lokalsamfund gennem agroforestry og frugttræer. Treesy adskiller sig ved at kombinere: • lav pris pr. træ • høj grad af transparens • direkte lokal tilstedeværelse • individuel geo-tagging af træer • en bevidst fravalg af dyre certificeringssystemer til fordel for direkte dokumentation Vores ambition er at gøre klimahandling tilgængelig for alle — og samtidig sikre, at indsatsen skaber reel, målbar og langsigtet impact. Treesy er stiftet af iværksættere med mange års erfaring fra udviklingsarbejde i Afrika og et stærkt lokalt netværk. Vi tror på, at ægte forandring skabes, når klima, biodiversitet og social udvikling tænkes sammen i én samlet løsning. Vores mission er enkel: At gøre det så nemt og gennemskueligt som muligt at give mere tilbage til planeten, end man tager.

Levu is a booking and payment platform for the beauty and personal care industry, built around a fundamentally different revenue model. Today, salons and clinics are burdened by fragmented booking systems, no-shows, heavy administration, and high fixed platform fees that erode already thin margins. Meanwhile, customers expect fast, frictionless booking and seamless payments. Levu solves this by shifting platform costs away from salons and onto the end user. Instead of charging businesses recurring subscription fees, Levu generates revenue through a small service fee per completed transaction paid by customers — aligning incentives across the entire ecosystem. Customers book and pay for treatments in advance, while salons benefit from reduced no-shows, improved cash flow, and simplified operations, without increasing their fixed costs. Levu is designed for local, city-by-city rollout, enabling controlled expansion, strong unit economics, and early paths to profitability. The product is developed and prepared for initial market entry, with a go-to-market strategy focused on high-frequency services such as hair, beauty, and wellness. We are currently raising capital to fund initial market entry, operations, and targeted local marketing in our first Danish cities, with the objective of proving traction and scaling sustainably.

1. The Elevator Pitch GEIST is developing next-generation sailing apparel for recreational and lifestyle sailors who want protection and freedom on the water—without the bulk, stiffness, or elitist aesthetics of traditional sailing gear. By combining high-performance materials, real-world testing, and community-driven design, GEIST delivers technical sailing wear that enhances the experience instead of getting in the way. 2. The What: What are you solving? Sailing apparel today is largely designed for professional racers or extreme offshore conditions—resulting in garments that are heavy, rigid, over-engineered, and visually disconnected from how most people actually sail. This creates a gap for: - Recreational sailors - Lifestyle / adventure sailors - Coastal and day sailors who want reliable protection from wind, spray, and weather, but also comfort, mobility, and a modern aesthetic they enjoy wearing. As a result, many sailors compromise—either wearing gear that limits movement and comfort, or using outdoor apparel not built for marine conditions. This problem affects a broad and growing segment of sailors globally, especially as sailing increasingly overlaps with outdoor lifestyle, travel, and community-driven experiences. 3. How GEIST is solving it GEIST designs sailing apparel from the experience outward. We start by deeply understanding how our users move, layer, vent heat, and interact with their gear during real sailing scenarios—not idealized ones. From there, we: - Develop function-led designs focused on mobility, breathability, and smart protection - Use premium 3-layer performance fabrics and components chosen for durability, comfort, and sustainability - Prototype early and test continuously with sailors in real conditions - Co-create features, fit, and details with our community rather than designing in isolation Our first products—a sailing jacket and trousers—are built to be worn actively on the water and comfortably before and after, bridging performance and lifestyle without compromise. 4. Why GEIST exists GEIST started from lived frustration. As a sailor and outdoor enthusiast, I repeatedly experienced how traditional sailing gear interrupted the very thing it was supposed to support—the feeling of being present, capable, and free on the water. Gear was either too stiff, too bulky, too aggressive, or simply not designed for how most people sail today. I realized this wasn’t a niche problem—it was systemic. And it wasn’t being solved because the industry hadn’t truly shifted its perspective. GEIST exists to reimagine sailing apparel from the standpoint of experience, movement, and modern sailing culture. It’s about stripping away unnecessary complexity and designing gear that supports focus, confidence, and enjoyment—so when the wind hits, the world narrows, and the gear disappears.
