Skills to the Future

Skills to the Future, is developing a digital learning platform to help schools to provide supplementary STEM courses in topics where they lack the resources or competence. We think that our present education could be better. Now the content comes more from looking in the rear mirror, than through the windshield. It should take better account of the constant acceleration of our living environment. We want to help the schools to provide our youth education that trends to the future as much as possible. We cannot exactly tell what skills in 10 years are needed, but we can make good guesses and at least show them in the right direction. Our obligation is to give our youth a kick and a spark starting to learn new skills for the future. How we differentiate ourselves from the other course providers? Our pillars 4 are: #1 The quality of pedagogy first We align, curate, and orchestrate all our course material to achieve pedagogic competence and meet the quality requirements of the ‘Finnish Education Standards’. #2 The how: Blended project-based learning with a flipped approach Digital courses mostly rely only on the delivery of educational material. Our digital platform relies on blended open-ended project-based learning with a flipped approach. That means that also we deliver the educational material online but that’s only one-half of what we do. We also deliver teacher/educator lead workshops, Q&As. We want to ensure that the student really can utilize the information given and convert that to skills by practicing aka by doing homework. Just watching videos and answering some quizzes gives you the illusion you have now learned a skill! #3 High impact needs high completion rates By following and complying with the Finnish pedagogical guidelines we aim to raise the completion rate from Udemy like under 10% to over 80%. A raise in engagement is achieved also with help from our 4th pillar. #4 Co-operating and collaborating with the schools We aim to co-operate with the schools by trying to include our courses in each school’s learning curricula and embed them in the school’s teaching environment. We also aim to collaborate with schools by co-creating courses on topics they want. Searching co-workers with a calling I have been working on this project for a couple of years quite loosely. Soon, when the Helsinki Education Hub starts and opens its doors, we are applying to the EdTech Incubator program. So now is the time to onboard and start the cruise, isn’t it? A person on my wish list for co-founders and early team members could be: - a teacher, educator, course builder, or at least be interested in or somewhat familiar with pedagogy. Curating the courses would be one of the tasks - a tech guy who would run and tackle the Learning Management System or Virtual Learning Environment in all its complexities - a hacker, data guy, designer, or whoever who would join testing and building the product/service in the right direction and helping it grow - an audio/video person who would be in building the courses and participating in the marketing activities broadly understood - a content provider because we are going to build ourselves only some MVP’s - there are many other jobs and tasks you could do, so practically anyone who is self-motivated is welcomed to join! My primary target is to have an impact on my activities. Even though money helps in living, I would rather make a ding in the education universe than get wealthy. I prefer diversity in age, gender, and nationality and I am searching for like-minded people who want to share my calling. I am not inviting you to join right away. Working as a co-founder is like marriage, you just can’t quit when you feel like it. Therefore, it’s best for both parties just to make a small project together and after the experiment, we know how we like to proceed. Please contact me markku.porvari@mit.fi or just call +358 40 725 2547.

Supplybase ApS

Supplybase is a platform which streamlines activities related to outsourcing of part manufacturing. If you can order your favourite pizza online in 5 minutes - why does it then have to be such a time-consuming and frustrating process to order a piece of lasercut metal or a 3D printed prototype? While the B2C industry is becoming increasingly digitalized, utilizing data to optimize inventory, product flow and customer engagement, the B2B industry is lagging behind. This is especially true within the industrial order-producing companies, where many companies have little online presence, and in the industry, only 19% have websites with online purchase options. The ambition of Supplybase is to become a multisided platform, where purchasers, engineers and hobbyists can identify, trade with, and review the many order-producing suppliers of metal, plastic, and 3D printed parts. This is done by improving the process from identification and request for quotation, to purchase and repurchase in an easy and streamlined online experience. Using this platform, the order producing companies can capture and use their own data, gathered during the quotation/purchase/repurchase process, in an easily understandable manner. How do we achieve this? We start by creating a searchable platform. The we build the tools to help both sides of the transaction, to achieve a smooth purchase process. Supplybase is founded by Sebastian Schlicker based on his experiences when dealing with order producing companies within metal and 3D printing, through his work as a Mechanical Development Engineer and Product Manager in the robotics industry in Odense. SEARCHING FOR TECHNICAL CO-FOUNDER – Are you located in Odense? Are you interrested in start-ups? Do you want to help build a scalable company? Do you feel the urge to start your own entrepreneurial journey? Write Sebastian Schlicker today! We accept inquiries from other roles as well. Contact us to hear more.

Celxius

Celxius is building a set of SaaS tools and a marketplace for the Cleantech industry that helps providers bring green energy to more homes faster . Celxius was founded late 2020, by Agustinus Wigeberg and Johan Lind. Agustinus, had after seven years in Cleantech, seen that the installations sector was far from as efficient as it needs to be. As an experienced developer, he knew he could do something to fix it. At the Antler VC accelerator program, he met Johan, an ex corporate executive who had shed his business suit and was longing to build a company that could have a real positive impact. Together, they decided to help reduce carbon dependency by accelerating the renewable energy market. At Celxius, we believe our future on this planet in jeopardy. Some 20 % of greenhouse gas emissions come from the heating and electricity of homes. Transitioning homes around the world to renewable energy needs to be smooth and efficient. This is where Celxius comes in.

By doing this we will help them, and their families, to make day-to-day activities simpler. Karma Mobil’s offer consists of a mobile subscription packaged with a number of add-on services. To make senior citizens feel more comfortable being digital, we include a service for ID protection. With the ID protection, the customer gets for example notified and assistance if their social security number, bank account, credit card or e-mail address is fraudulently used online. We offer this solution together with our partner MinUC which we have an exclusive agreement with. Apart from the ID protection service, Karma Mobil AB are in discussions with other possible partner companies who provide different solutions for people with special needs. The solutions varies but common for them is that they bring support for individuals and the families. One example is to keep contact and plan for day-to-day activities over a digital platform. In addition to the digital to digital services, we also offer our customers a blog where topics in relation to our target group is covered. By this, our customers can get insight and inspiration to become more active – both digitally and in “real life”.

The purpose of this is to create a feeling of community and recognition for our target group. As a new player on the Swedish telco market, we focus on a target group that does not get much attention. Instead of marketing Karma as “cheap” and “easy” (even if we are) our message is that we care. We show this to our customer by having competitive rates and subscriptions that includes something else than just the ordinary mobile services. We also show that we care by having a staffed support organisation which can be reached by phone, chat or social media. We are on a journey from being brand new on the market, unknown to anyone to become the obvious Mobile operator for those who appreciate extra care.
