Grei community

Grei Community is a digital community for womanhood where women can discuss shared interests, develop social relations, and explore new identities and fantasies. Grei Community is for all the women who think that we are worth a place of our own online. A place built for us, just the way we want it. Grei Community connects women online, providing membership in a community where women can discuss everything in life. Shared interests, develop social relations, share intimate or sensitive questions and explore fantasies. Grei Community is for all women; women are worth a place of their own online. Grei Community is a product by Grei Technology - a start up focusing on Femtech and equality. Discussions around female health are surrounded by social stigma and misunderstanding. Our mission is to normalize the private and intimate topics. We want it to be as natural to discuss menstruation, sex and intimacy as headache, travel and politics. We want to be a part of changing the world, changing the attitudes of the society, giving women and men equal possibilities and rights. We believe that sharing stories and discussing even the difficult topics, we will build female empowerment. Knowledge is the most powerful weapon we can use to change the world.

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.

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.
