Sesam import AS

Sesam imports will initially import products from Asia, mainly from the Philippines in the beginning. The reason for starting the company is that Filipinos are struggling to find Filipino and Asian food in Asian stores in Norway, there is a big gap in the selection of stores that offer food from Asia. Many foreigners living in Norway craves food and taste from their homeland and one of them are Filipinos. As of 2021, access to Filipino products is still limited while the Filipino community is growing. Therefore, we are very grateful to start this business. We will offer food, beverage, fruits, and vegetables from the entire Asia to customers in Norway. We will sell them online on our online shop and Facebook store to private customers in Norway, we will also offer our products to businesses in Norway such as Asian stores and restaurants and online sellers. We will offer the most selling products but also offer the products that we know the Asian communities are missing and having trouble to obtain in Norway. Our goal is to have the best and biggest product assortment in store in Norway. We will have a cold storage with some fresh fruit and vegetables but most of this order have to be ordered in advance to provide loss of goods due to short shell life. Frozen food like fish and meat will we have on cold storage for fast delivering.

Gets

Gets is a delivery company creating a platform that serves as an ordering channel for our business partners. What makes us different from our competition is that we offer our business partners their own personal delivery team. Always the same people and always available. Many small business owners such as restaurants, flower shops, retail stores are forced to hire their own drivers even though they already have delivery companies as partners. With us, it doesn't matter if the order comes through our ordering channel or by a phone call to the restaurants, they still have their own personal driver assigned by us to take care of the delivery. This will allow the small business owner to focus entirely on growing their businesses and leave us to handle all delivery solutions for them.

CAPVEE

Private markets (equity / real estate / debt crowdfunding, crypto / crypto-like, etc.) have recently opened up to retail investors. We believe that access to private markets is very important to retail investors as it outperforms public markets and adds diversification to the portfolio. It also serves as a gateway to financial literacy for youngsters and minorities. However, private market investments are inherently opaque. We want to shed light on these opportunities. We are basically building Seeking Alpha / Motley Fool for private markets. The company was founded by two serial entrepreneurs. We are looking for a third co-founder, a Nordic social media star (social media marketing, excellent blogger and podcaster, face of the franchise), preferably a woman. We are looking to do a Series A at the end of the year at a valuation of USD 5M (raising USD 1M). Until then, the project is self-funded. The co-founders are serial entrepreneurs: Michael (based in Florida) is the founder and CEO of Sprig (www.drinksprig.com), which he sold in 2019. Olof (based in Zurich) was previously the CFO of a stock-listed food company with USD 700m in sales. He also founded and sold the largest online tea business in Switzerland and he supported the business development and fundraising of Europe's leading insect-based food company.

MuskeBear

Hi! We are MuskeBear - and we are developing the next big thing for families with babies all around the world.  Short about us: The team behind MuskeBear consist of Tobias Seegert (CEO) and Freya Herluf (CMO). We are two young students from Denmark that are working as machines on our incredible business idea. We are developing a personalized Heartbeat TeddyBear! MuskeBear is a new concept that is going to revolutionize the traditional Teddybear by incorporating smart technology. More specifically our product is a combination of two things. A sweet and soft teddybear and a technological device that can record heartbeat soundtracks in a high quality and play it back too. Our product is developed based on a strong psychological foundation. Several studies have shown that babies have a special need for attachment with what we define as "caregivers". Caregivers are specific persons that a baby has a special relationship with. That would primarily be the baby's mother and father. If this need is satisfied, then the baby will be more curious, socially stable and in general better equipped for growing to be a socially well functioning human being. But! If this need on the other hand is not met, then the opposite scenario can be a possible outcome.  Therefore it is safe to say that sustained positive attachment and security is a necessity for a new born child. Our product offers exactly this attachment, because it can be ASSIST whenever the parents are not able to be with their baby. That could be when the baby has to sleep, is getting babysitted, is in nursery and in many other situations.  Go-to-market strategy and target group: We operate on a B2C market. We are going to sell our product through our own channel, which is our webshop. Our primary target group IS parents with children AT the age of 0-2 years. This target group is also reflected in our marketing focus and strategy. However, our product is also suited for children that are a bit older.  The thing that makes our product stand out in the crowd is our technology based solution. Our innovative solution enables mothers and fathers to record their own heartbeat rhythm- and sound in high quality and incorporate these audios into the teddybear. The fact that we enable families to make personal heartbeat recordings in their own home (Instead of requiring a scanning-process at a hospital or otherwise facilitated by the midwife) is revolutionary. We make the product accessible for everybody, and with our solution you can have your child's first teddybear become a family project. Why are we spending days and nights to create this product? Think about IT. We have conceived an idea that has the possibility to assist hundreds of thousands of families in establishing strong and caring bonds that will last for a whole lifetime. All due to the personal care and attachment that our product brings to the baby and the family. With other words we can make a living while making families happy all over the world.

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.

meety

Meety is developing a service to help seniors with video communication by offering a customized tablet and application that is easy to use and specially designed for seniors who find technology difficult. We are helping seniors make use of the technological advances so many of us are native too, but can be difficult to learn for others.

We are working hard perfecting the application to be as seamless, intuitive and easy to use as possible. We are eliminating as many steps as we can to simply offers a solution and service that takes care of everything and works from the moment you plug it in. We saw the need for this product ourselves as our parents and grandparents were living far away, getting older and not being able to use any type of technology, expect for maybe a tv remote. We wanted to find a way to check up on them and stay more connected, and so, the idéa was born. Many of the technological solutions that are available today can be difficult for someone who doesn't even use the internet so we wanted to create something that works, is intuitive and enables anyone to make use of the technological wonders of world.

COBO Technologies

COBO Technologies is a fast-growing start-up company based in Copenhagen, Denmark, that specializes in products and services for Quality Control (QC) of CRISPR modified cells and animals. The team behind COBO comes from senior positions in science, commercial and operation, with more than 10 years experience in the CRISPR field. Within the last 5 years, the CRISPR field has developed from more than 100 publications per year to now more than 5,000 publications per year and the number of ongoing clinical trials using a CRISPR tool is now more than 60. In 2020 two CRISPR scientists received the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for their CRISPR inventions, proving that this is a fast-growing field which is now moving from research to clinics. In consequence, there is a need for platforms that can support efficient QC of CRISPR cells. In more general terms, there is a need to understand what are the safety effects of altering DNA with CRISPR — hitting the right target gene, checking how efficient the DNA change is, and investigating other DNA changes that were not expected. Most of the solutions offered today for cell/DNA analysis are not developed specifically for CRISPR applications. They are expensive, lack sensitivity and are time-consuming and they are done by service companies with no/or little knowledge about CRISPR. Based on our experience from the CRISPR field and feedback from our network in the EU and US, we have developed proprietary platforms that can support the current needs for QC of CRISPR cells. Including both proven reagents for sample preparation, cell analysis and bioinformatics, this is the first full-package solution developed specifically for CRISPR clients. In addition, it combines low cost, high sensitivity and fast delivery time - 3 factors essential for our clients. We have used the past year to build up a scalable operation in Denmark in a low-risk setup and are now ready to speed up the growth first in the EU and then later 2021 in the US. In addition, we will also start the initial preparation of our first development project for a clinical application at the end of 2021. Since the start 2018, COBO has supported more than 15 clients in both EU and US, including leading pharma companies and some of the leading universities in the world. We have developed unique platforms, we have clients every week, we have the network and we have the skills to be a major player in the global CRISPR field and be part of the development of future CRISPR Medicine to treat genetic diseases. As of today, COBO Technologies is backed by an angel investor.

Membantu

Membantu is one of the leading companies in Denmark helping babies with sleep because sleep is so incredibly important to the little ones. The large amount of sleep is crucial for normal growth and development, as the brain, during sleep, i.a. processes sensory impressions. Membantu develops and sells various products including baby wraps and cradle motors that can hopefully help many small babies get the right amount of sleep. Membantu was founded in 2017 by Stephanie and Eva, who both experienced a great need for an extra set of hands in their children's first years of life.

Ceretai

Ceretai develops AI software and services to help the media and entertainment industries improve diversity and equality in TV programs, movies and other media content. In the Western world we consume up to 10 hours of media every day - news, Netflix, social media, you name it. Through this media we are shown a biased image of the world - for example, only 30% of speaking roles in cinema movies globally are given to women, and only 1% of characters in movies have functional limitations. This of course affects our view of the world, teaching us biases and contributing to an unsustainable world of discrimination and segregation. At the same time, national and international governmental bodies in the media industry are focusing very hard on exactly these issues. Just like in other industries, authorities like the European Broadcasting Union and national public service regulators are looking at the UN sustainability goals and trying to find ways to increased gender equality (goal no. 5) and decreased inequalitites (goal no. 10). Research shows that 80% of movie and TV audiences want to change the state of diversity in media and entertainment. "Newcomers" like Netflix continue to steal audiences with norm-breaking series showing a different picture of the world - one that includes a diversity of stories and people. At Ceretai we have made it our mission to support the media industry in creating more diversity in their content. We have built a SaaS solution, the Diversity Dashboard, that automatically analyses any given media file for gender and age representation, and we continue to develop it to cover more grounds for discrimination. We also provide services for creating awareness and fostering change within European media organisations, for example workshops and reports. The idea that became Ceretai was sparked in late 2017, in the wake of the Me Too campaign, when the founders grew tired of not finding entertainment that matched their values. Realising how unconsciously biased we all are, the company was founded in early 2018 with the idea of building an automated tool for detecting norms and stereotypes in popular culture. Our mission has stayed the same: contributing to a more equal and tolerant world by using technology to create awareness and change.
