ColouReef

We are a new social startup named ColouReef and we are going to rethink and innovate the fashion industry. As you probably know, the fast fashion industry has a more negative impact on our environment and society than it does good. Being one of the most polluting ones, the industry emits more CO2 into the atmosphere than international flights and maritime shipping combined. Moreover, it is a water-consuming giant that is responsible for 20% of all industrial water pollution worldwide. Additionally, fast-fashion companies that produce garments in the global south, are profiting by exploiting local labour and nature. Fast fashion is the problem. Ever changing trends, consumerism and the fear of being left out, affects people psychologically, as fashion collections’ frequency jumped from 2 to 4 per year in 2000 to 12, 16 and sometimes 24 different collections per year in 2019. As a result, in 2014 to compare with 2000, on average people bought 60% more clothes and kept them just half as long. Consequently, this behaviour created another major problem of the industry – waste. Around 85% of the textile ends up in landfills or being burned, while barely 15% are recycled. In 2017 – 16.9 million tons of textile was produced, and only 2,6 million tons were recycled. The problem is, that many consumers in the global North are being held as hostages by the fast fashion trends, without many, if any, sustainable alternatives. This is our solution to the problems above: • To create a fashion rental service based on a circular economy, that allows customers to own different garments by paying a monthly subscription. In this way we will be able to reduce the impact of the fast fashion while allowing people an opportunity to change their outfit and style more often. • We will offer clothes ONLY from sustainable companies, which care about our planet and everyone living on it. Meaning that clothes will need to be produced sustainably and ecologically and/or contain recycled fabrics, as well as not to exploit labour within their supply chain. • Damaged and worn out clothes will be returned back to the clothing brand to upcycle or will be recycled and/or upcycled locally by ColouReef. This way we will fight together the problem of enormous waste caused by the industry. • We will change the habits of the consumers, by providing an alternative to own and wear sustainable clothing for a period of time instead of owning cheap and vastly produced fashion garments. At the same time, we will educate our customers about the damages that the textile industry is doing to our environment. • As the name of our company implies, we want to help to protect coral reefs that are on the verge of extinction. Coral reefs are a vital part of the whole underwater ecosystem. Warming ocean and ocean acidification are two of the main reasons why corals are bleaching and dying around the world. Besides our effort to transform the fashion industry into a more sustainable version of it, we will also support selected NGOs that are fighting against coral extinction. We are looking for people thinking in the same way, seeing the problems and wanting to solve them by disrupting the fashion industry.

Voima Gold

Voima Gold is an innovative fintech company offering account services for global clients. We have over a thousand clients from over 30 countries around the world. In the last couple of years we have built our own web- and mobile applications as well as our own vault in Helsinki, Finland. Last year, our revenue was 19.2 million euros. Currently, we hire 19 full-time employees and our company is constantly growing. Our office is in the heart of Helsinki. The Voima Account was created to counter the unfairness of the banking system. Regular banks do not safeguard people’s money in a safe manner. In case the bank fails to balance their operations, the clients face the consequences and lose their savings. This has happened already in Cyprus, and the instability of the financial world makes bank collapses likely to happen elsewhere as well. On top of this, creating more and more money in the recent years has led to euros and other currencies losing their value. On the other hand economics and history have shown that gold retains its value. Gold copes better with crisis and economic downturns.The people who have owned physical gold have retained the value of their money and purchasing power, unlike people who have only stored the majority of their money in a bank as digital numbers. This is why we offer accounts with physical gold holdings. We believe it is fair, that our clients get to keep the value of their money and purchasing power now and for generations to come.
