Kollek

Kollek is an early-stage startup, build upon a sharing economic business model. We have a huge passion for tech, innovation og trade, and applies digital solutions to facilitate collective trade and group buying among companies and individuals. As a to-sided ecommerce platform (marketplace), we aim to help people and companies to strengthen their buying-power in order to increase the quality in life - inside and outside of work. Therefore, on one hand, we exclusively facilitates group buying - by collectively connect and secure trade between private consumers and businesses. On the other hand Kollek offer Danish retailers- and manufactures a new sales channel where they can sell their products in "bulks", through unique and tailor-made digital functions. We see huge increases in commodity prices, which are due to rising inflation worldwide. A lot of industries are forced to their knees, striving to survive. Also shipping prices have exploded dramatically, which influence the total supply chain and increases the prices on all finished goods. But by creating cost efficiency and economies of scale throughout the supply chain -together we can join forces and increase the total volume of our orders, while conversely, getting a significant volume discount.

Basis Nuts

Basis Nuts finds and imports unique, delicious, regional varieties of nuts grown by small-scale farmers. Today, consumers are nut illiterate in the same way we were coffee illiterate 20 years ago. We're unable to identify different nut varieties, recognize the different tastes between varieties, or distinguish between the same nut grown in different growing areas. Without this basic understanding of nuts, consumers are unable to judge the quality of nuts and thus buy them based on price. This has benefited the nut industry enormously, because it has made nuts completely interchangeable. It means that nut buyers and importers can source nuts from around the world and dictate the prices for growers – even if it is below the cost of production. It means that in order to be competitive, nut growers have to plant larger and larger orchards, mechanize their production, and grow high-yielding nut varieties to ensure that they can sell their nuts on the international market. It means that local, traditional nut varieties are less and less available as the industry favors standardization. We've also lost one of the most important things: taste. In the industry's push for disease resistance, durability, and standardization, we've lost flavors, textures, and variety. Basis Nuts is trying to change this. We find the best-tasting varieties of nuts that are grown by small farmers around the world and import them to Denmark. We identify the variety, origin, and uniqueness about these nuts and target food-conscious consumers and chefs to make them realize what they've been missing. We want to highlight and preserve biodiversity and make people start to think about where their nuts come from.

Kimey

Kimey is developing application called Happ. Happ tells you what is going on around you right now. And i mean just now. Have you ever landed middle of nowhere, and wondered is there anything happening? Something? Like, now? Have you ever found a wallet or has your dog ran away and you have wished, that if there was only a way to tell it to somebody right away? Do you have bicycle to sell before you leave out of town? Or food to donate before it goes bad? Happ is life happening around you. In Happ you can create events or "Happs" which can be anything. Users can define their happs as they please; Your dog runaway, you want to sell or donate something, or you saw a bear. Happ is valid only 2 hours after its created. That is to keep happ realtime; all happs are going on right now. You can link your happ where ever your happ needs. Pictures, videos, facebook, ebay - what ever suits your happ. First time i came up to this idea was when I was middle of desert in California a town called Palm Springs. It was sunday evening and I thought i wish there were an app where i can see is there anything happening. I could check google, and facebook, and all the other sites that can tell me the concerts, restaurants, theathers, their opening hours, ticket prizes etc. But nothing where i could see it easy and quick. And if its happening right now. Happ is happening now.

Nord A1

REGULATING MODERN TECHNOLOGY We develop 'lifestyle systems’ and the market's first AI-integrated hybrid watch that is designed to counter information overload. Our technology interprets and disperses information to only notify of what is subjectively relevant and important to the user. Our mission is to eradicate the abuse of digital communication to create a socially sustainable cyber life. The market need is indicated by the fact that people receive an average of 64 notifications a day and only a fraction are relevant to the user. The ordinary functionality is static and delivers information regardless of the user's wishes and needs at any given moment, which impairs focus and causes stress. The notifications do not differ from one another regardless of severity and they are all based on sources instead of topics and people. We circumvent this inconvenience and offer a solution that ensures that the user never has to be distracted in vain. Our solution is aimed at high-performing, social, and fashion-conscious men and women mainly in the ages 30-50, who highly benefit from saving time, remaining focused, and reducing screen-time and stress in everyday life. THE FUTURE OF SMART PRODUCTS We solve the problem with a watch that works as a digital ‘gatekeeper’ against irrelevant information rather than an extension to the mobile phone like regular smartwatches. The dynamic functions are based on the user's hierarchical values and micro-activities, which together with AI filtering and machine learning enable customized technology and a completely new type of smart functionality. ★ STARTUP OF THE YEAR-FINALIST┃288 PRE-ORDERS IN 72 HOURS ★ The project has been developed for three years through a global network with competence from companies such as Fossil, Citizen, Hugo Boss, and Intel, and we have senior board members with experience managing 200MSEK-2BSEK companies. The development is now being supported by Kronaby's co-founders and senior engineers Pål Borge and Sarandis Kalogeropulos. We develop our own app and watch movements with two years of smart battery life, and the development of the next generation has also begun which will be a body-heat-driven hybrid that enables life-long battery life. That development project will be carried out together with a Silicon Valley-based company focusing on thermoelectric energy. ★ FUNDING THROUGH VINNOVA┃5 INVESTORS IN 1ST SEED ROUND ★ WHY A WATCH? ○ It creates a physical barrier that deprioritizes the phone to limit screen time. ○ It is the ultimate product to optimize because of its accessibility. ○ All competitors are counter-intuitive and contribute to the problem. ○ Integrating the app with a watch creates more opportunities for patents. ○ The margins in the watch industry are almost unbelievably high. ○ We love watches. FOUNDER STATEMENT What motivated me to quit my day job to focus on my own endeavors was the realization that I really thrive in creative processes, and a company is a very meaningful, fulfilling, and long-term creation. Entrepreneurship lets me look at life as a journey to fulfill my greatest wishes and desires, some that are related to the satisfaction in personal development but mostly my dream to give my family the fruits of life and to ultimately help and inspire the greater society.

Peppelini

Peppelini Studios is a newly started children's clothing company that aims to produce high-quality apparel in the most ethically and environmentally friendly way possible. We want our brand to be synonyms with timeless design. We want to set a new standard when it comes to sustainability, quality, and the way parents consume children’s clothing. We are looking for people who feel as strongly as we do about changing the status quo. We know from our research that more parents want their children to own long-lasting, high-quality clothes with a cool and fun design. 
 Our first collection will consist of 3600 pieces and will be ready in February. Even though our first collection is relatively small, our goal is to establish Peppelini as the best slow fashion brand out there within a few years. 
 How we aim to become more sustainable: Peppelini aims never to have sales. We will produce clothes in our tempo and make sure we have zero waste. We also want to buy back all the clothes from our customers. When designing our clothes, we have in mind that at least four children should be able to wear the clothes before we need to recycle them. 
 Each organization and company involved in every step of the production process must live up to our expectations. Meaning they too must be totally transparent and carefully investigate their supply chains. The goal naturally is to get more companies and more people involved and take action. The fashion industry has to change, and it has to change now.  
 We are looking for people who feel as strongly as we do about changing the status quo. We believe there is a market for high-quality, sustainably made children's clothing. More parents like us must want their children to own clothes made to last, with a cool and fun design.  
 After a long intensive search for the right factory, we finally found a manufacturer we know is doing its best to produce clothes using fewer chemicals, use renewable energy, think circularly, and eliminate waste the best it can. 
 Our first step was to define sustainability for the company and our workers. What vision and goals are we working towards? Becoming more circular is one goal. To have every single worker live a better life (in every part of the production).  
 Moving away from cotton was a no-brainer. Most companies buy their cotton from factories without really knowing the development process, where it comes from, the conditions of the farmers, and its TRUE environmental effect on the planet. There is no fundamental understanding of the social and environmental impact. An accurate and transparent investigation must take place. Otherwise, the risk of falling victim to greenwashing is high.  Almost all companies are talking about sustainability. Unfortunately, most of it is greenwashing; companies are doing the bare minimum to receive certifications. If an Oeke or GOTS cotton certification is handed to a product, what does that mean? Is that certification enough for us customers to justify the product as sustainable? What does sustainable even mean? Don't we have to take the company behind the product into consideration? After consulting with many sustainability experts, we chose to go with Lyocell. Not only is Lyocell the most sustainable material out there, but it's also durable and incredibly soft and comfortable. A big part of the design is durability. No more wear and tear; throw the clothes out after only one child gets to wear the item. Peppelini garments are made with love, and we demand our customers to treat them with the respect they deserve. 
 Our daughter Pepp's favorite clothes are Lyocell clothes made in Utenos! We know the quality is super high. After many, many washes, those clothes are still as good as new.  We also wanted to find the most environmentally friendly transportation method and boxes to ship the clothes in.

renkaffe.dk

Our solution means that our customers contribute to a cleaner planet and healthier health. Our coffee research has made it clear to us that we must meet the rising green transition and offer products that are sustainable and climate-friendly. This is equated with "convenience" as there is insignificant competition on the two parameters. We may not be the cheapest coffee choice, but we believe we are winning big on our focus on CO2 reduction, Fairtrade, sustainability, organic coffee, biodegradable capsules, recycled packaging, and the elimination of aluminum and plastic. There are some providers of biodegradable capsules, but the largest is focused on the B2B market. However, there are some who market aluminum and plastic capsules with up to 100,000 active customers per month. WHO suspects that aluminum and plastic capsules can leave microorganisms in our body. In Germany, the city council in i.a. Hamburg, banned the use of aluminum capsules in the public sector and replaced with biodegradable ones. It is not only the WHO that believes that aluminum in groceries can pose a potential health hazard. The metal is suspected to be the cause of cancer and Alzheimer's (source: https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/topics/aluminum#start).
