Favafond

FavaFond is offering micro-loans to foreign-born and minority entrepreneurs in Sweden. A large, innovative and resilient group of entrepreneurs that lacks access to capital, advice, training and the networks necessary to start a business and grow. Fostering gender-equalled financial inclusion and business advice can improve ability and opportunities to become self-sufficient and economically active. In turn, empowering them to lead a fulfilling life integrating into Swedish society. Favafond’s mission is to become a key contributor for that change to take place in Sweden and beyond. Since 2019, we have been testing our business idea/model, issuing initial loans as ”proof of concept”. Data has been collected and analyzed to learn customers profiles, preferences and needs. Also, we have been risk mitigating our lending process and adding complementary business services capacity in compliance with Swedish banking/financial regulation. Our national platform of business advisors (i.e. accountants, coaches, etc.) and minority organizations (i.e. Community associations, startup incubators, etc.) has formalized recently. They are key partners to our business to facilitate access to loans for minority groups and support the improvement of our financial products and quality assurance of our lending process. The financial vehicle to raise the capital needed to issue the loans is a social impact fund – Favafond Invest. This fund will be open to private and institutional investors seeking a financial return on their investment as well as social return with measurable results. FavaFond plans to expand its operation to the rest of the Nordic region once its business idea/model has been thoroughly tested in Sweden and a critical mass of clients established.

HELIOT EMIL

1. INTRODUCTION A Ready-To-Wear fashion company presented by brothers Julius Juul and Victor Juul from Copenhagen, Denmark. Exploring the lines between form and function driven by experimental approaches, HELIOT EMIL™ pushes the semantic dialogue within the creative industry. A subversive scandinavian and monochromatic aesthetic, combined with custom developed materials, fabrics and trimmings, HELIOT EMIL™ entices a high attention to detail throughout every branch. Designer Julius Juul draws on thought provoking themes and a curiosity about creative expression reflected in every collection by HELIOT EMIL™. 2. FOUNDATION Since the first collection was showcased in Milan during spring / summer 17 season, HELIOT EMIL™ has continually expropriated its exploration of the creative milieu. The aesthetic is carefully developed with custom fabrics, hardware trimmings and materials. Each hardware detail is created from the bottom up with form and function in mind. Experimentation and a high attention to detail is ensured by partnering only with the best in their category and industry. A tight-bond with all partners allows for a coherent evolution of the brand aesthetic. With painstaking attention to detail each garment is conceived from a collective ideation for each season standing in relation to the brand as a whole. 3. FUTURE The subsequent phase for HELIOT EMIL™ will see a further cementation of the brand and an expansion of the semantic dialogue with the creative milieu. The core value of the brand will be explored without compromise, through both physical spaces enticing further ideas of form and function, and experiences expressing the innovative nature of the brand. Underlying the continuous organic development is a coherent understanding of the brand developed in close proximity with all partners.

Campion

Campion is the AirBNB for camping - easy as that. During and a long time after the current pandemic people will have to explore and travel their nearby surroundings instead of getting on a flight to another country. Normal camping sites are not that inspirational and won't attract the people who are used to explore the world. That's why we want private landowners outside the cities to be able to rent out their grounds to campers - tents or a place to park the RV or caravan. Hosts set their own price and we take a small commission fee. Users can easily find, book and pay for the unique and never before explored places to go for the night. Spending time outdoors has proven health benefits and fosters a deeper connection to the awesome, wild world out there.
