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.

byACRE

byACRE was founded in Copenhagen, the heart of Scandinavian’s design hub, with a mission to break down the stigma related to reduced mobility and to help those it serves maintain an active lifestyle without compromise. We design mobility aids for a person, not a patient. Mobility is one of the core values in modern life. It’s also a top challenge facing older adults; and adults with disabilities that have impacted their mobility and lifestyle. The current market for assistive walking devices has failed to adequately support this community, with ageist messages and outdated models that denote feelings of dependence and fragility – an inaccurate representation of today’s thriving older adult community. Since 2017, our mindful designs have won some of the world’s most prestigious awards in design and innovation, including the 2019 RedDot Design Award, the 2017 IF Design Award and the Danish Design Award, the title “Most Innovative Startup” by FedEx Europe in 2022 and German Design Award 2024. “by ACRE” is our quality seal. It’s rooted in the words ‘Active’ and ‘Re-Habitare’ – the Latin word for Back to Life.

Inspicasa

The digital service Inspicasa offers several enhancements to the clarification process all property buyers are going through: Firstly: Inspicasa decodes the buyer’s emotional profile and merges the emo-profile with the factual wishes into a complete search profile. The algorithms search all real estate agents sites for properties that match the profile and present the choices to the buyer. Secondly, Inspicasa presents different national or geotagged shops and service-suppliers, offering relevant products to the property buyer. For example; kitchens, furniture, internet, security systems, DIY, garden centers, supermarkets, etc. A ''Yes'' to a property equals ''Yes'' to new suppliers. The business model consists of two cash flow streams: Lead generation to suppliers with individualized focus and vouchers to support retailers and campaigns. 40% of the population that is looking for houses, flats, summerhouses, etc is discontented with the present solutions to browse the real estate market. At the same time, ⅔ of the population looking for a new property is not able to find the matching property. Why? Because the fundamental emo-parameters that control the decision-making is not addressed presently by real estate agents or other market-actors neither digitally nor through classic communication. According to Professor Richard Thaler, Noble Prize winner in Economy in 2017, and Daniel Kahneman and Vernon Smith, Noble Prize winner in Economy in 2002, is every decision based on the emotional perception of your "reality landscape". Regardless of what kind of decision we are talking about. Market research shows that 98% of real estate buyers agree. This opportunity is why we created Inspicasa. Based on algorithms and machine learning the solution optimizes and in a few seconds narrows the search to a few dream homes, much faster than scrolling through hundreds of presentations. Leads and voucher messages are sent to participating suppliers and shops instantly enabling them to act. But what if the decision process has to include 3-4-5 persons? Answer: Inspicasa presents an option, where the buyer merges her or his emotional preferences with for example family members and creates a group profile. The property search presents actual suggestions from top to low match. The idea was created as a result of several discussions about the real estate market, decision-making process, emotional preference, and frustration about the (lack of) exciting services. Jess and Grane have been involved in business development, innovation, and start-ups in many different set-ups. We have a passion for developing, disrupting, and creating concepts, but despite that, it is the first time we have created a project together after knowing each other for more than 10 years. Birgitte was a natural part of the project from day one, Birgitte and Jess are married and Birgitte’s competence as an auth. psychologist was extremely important for the emotional understanding and creating a fundamental part of the solution.

Africa Reframed

Online marketplace for African imagery - Powered by online learning. Africa is rising and a visual reframing of the continent is emerging. A reframing crafted by African content creators, telling Africa's story of change. At Africa Reframed we connect a community of African photographers to the world’s leading companies and organizations to create and promote captivating imagery and bespoke projects that propel new storytelling from the African continent. Imagery in the Africa Reframed imagebank has been used by the worlds leading organizations such as: Gates Foundation, UN, Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Pfizer, Ernst & Young, Spotify, NBC, Yahoo, Sitecore, Exxon, Cambridge University Press, Hearst, Condé Nast, Lloyds bank, Europe- an Investment Bank, Shell, AOL, ABC, NEC, CNBC, KPMG, Discovery, VISA, Deloitte, Accenture, Ogilvy, UPS, Viacom, Pearson, Barclays, BBC, Axel Springer, British Council, M&C Saatchi, ASUS, Del Monte, Time inc., RTL, Virgin, McKinsey, Airtel, Guardian, Uber, Orange, 3M, HSBC, Samsung, The World Bank and many more. We are looking for investors sharing our vision of Africa Reframed as a value-driven, profitable business that strives to alter the global community’s perception of the African continent while also building sustainable job opportunities for photographers across Africa. Alongside its sister organization, Commerce & Culture, Africa Reframed has managed an array of long-term projects with leading contemporary visual artists globally and organized photo exhibitions with more than 100.000 paying visitors across 3 continents. Among these, the largest exhibition to date with African photography in northern Europe. SDGs: Quality education and decent work and economic growth, SDGs 4 and 8, are an integrated part of the Africa Reframed business model. When the United Nations In 2015 was launching the SDGs with Project Everyone, they did so with a campaign to share the global goals with 7 billion people in 7 days. This happened via global broadcasts, outdoor advertising campaigns, cinema ads, mobile partnerships, and more. Because of the above, Images from our program were among the officially chosen for the campaign and were singled out by the global campaign team as good education and economic growth in action. Misson: Most of the imagery we encounter from the African continent tends to either depict the beautiful scenery and wildlife or scenes of poverty, war, and desperation. While these indeed are bona fide aspects and challenges, Africa is also a continent characterized by immense growth, varied opportunities, and not least, change. The mission of Africa Reframed is to capture and contribute to the spurring of this change by a visual reframing of the continent. A reframing that reflects African enterprise, innovation, and everyday life. Africa Reframed exists to create and promote this new imagery in the belief that by changing the visuals, we can help change the conversation. Thus an inherent part of Africa Reframed’s DNA, which is also mirrored in the name of the company, is to be a catalyst for the way the world looks at the African continent. The wish to illustrate the real Africa and thus to spur optimism and hope around its future makes the company strongly value-driven, and it is believed that such a shared view will help bind contributors, clients, and other stakeholders close together. In 2020 Africa Reframed received an investment from Innovation fund Denmark and was selected as a finalist for the SDG Tech Award.

Inspired Beyond Babies

Inspired Beyond Babies er et barselsnetværk til mænd og kvinder, der gerne vil supplere babysvømning og rytmik med et fagligt indspark og få noget inspiration. Til månedlige foredrag i Storkøbenhavn og Jylland kan man høre kendte profiler fra erhvervslivet, inspirerende talere og specialister inden for forskellige fagområder. Temaerne kan være alt fra det moderne arbejdsliv til ledelsesudvikling og de seneste markedstrends. Barselsnetværket tilbydes som et personalegode til virksomheder for at skabe en mere inkluderende barselskultur, hvor mange godt kan føle sig ekskluderet fra deres arbejdsplads. Og at skabe et fællesskab i en periode, hvor mange føler sig isoleret og ensomme. Undersøgelser viser at op mod 29% skifter job i forbindelse med barsel, og at hele 56% går med overvejelserne. Inspired Beyond Babies giver mulighed for virksomhederne at investere i deres talenters fortsatte udvikling og at fastholde dem i den periode, hvor de er i størst risiko for at miste dem. På den måde bliver barsel ikke bare personligt udviklende, men også en professionel opkvalificering og løftestang for den enkelte. Vi tror på, at barslen er en kæmpe mulighed for både personlig og faglig udvikling, og at man kommer styrket tilbage til jobbet på grund af det.
