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.

GRASSROOTS

GRASSROOTS aims to revolutionize donations to charity through a digital platform, with the ultimate goal of creating a global standard for donations. The problem that we are trying to solve is that the feedback is very limited when donating to large charitable organizations today - most often a yearly report of what the entire organizations has been doing for that entire year. With single donations there is often no feedback at all. This means that it's not possible to see where your individual donation went, or if it made any difference. The solutions is a tailor made tool for large charitable organizations that improves communication, transparency, customer engagement and enables more efficient work, where donors will be able to see exactly where their donation went. GRASSROOTS is a non-profit organization.

MikalsenUtvikling

Vår historie Mikalsen Utvikling ble stiftet av Andrè Mikalsen i 2015. Etter mange år med utvikling av nettsider ble det ofte et tomrom og ønske om å bidra mer når nettsidene var ferdig levert. Spørsmålet som hele tiden dukket opp var om kunden faktisk kunne få enda flere besøkende til siden. Selv om nettsidene så grafisk bra ut, var de optimale for konvertering til salg? Dermed startet ferden inn i markedsføring og de digitale kanalene. Etter mange kurs og sene netter ved siden av full jobb, var det på tide å omsette teori til praksis. Vår første kunde fikk over 30 nye kunder den første måneden, og måtte ansette 2 nye medarbeidere for å håndtere den drastisk økende kundestrømmen. Å levere digital markedsføring med slike enormt positive resultater, er så sterkt for oss at vi aldri kommer til å slutte å skape resultater. Å være med på å endre livene til menneskene bak bedriftene er en ubeskrivelig rørende følelse. I dag har vi et sterkt fokus på å hjelpe små og mellomstore bedrifter, da våre tjenester kan utgjøre en stor forskjell i bedriftens hverdag.

Fysionett - Din fysioterapeut på nett

Vi skal gjøre fysioterapi mer tilgjengelig ved å samle online booking for fysioterapitjenester i én landsdekkende plattform. Hovedfokus skal være å tilrettelegge for booking av videokonsultasjon, chat og hjemmebesøk, men også ordinær timebooking. On-demand tjenester kan også være aktuelt. Eksisterende bookingtjenester, og journalsystemene som tilbyr dem, er i dag preget av utdatert UI/UX og tilbudet for sluttbrukere er fragmentert og lite brukervennlig fordi mange terapeuter finner det for kostbart å implementere. Fysionett skal gjøre bookingprosessen enklere, raskere og rimeligere for både klienter og terapeuter. Sluttbrukere vil få et langt bedre tilbud, mens fysioterapeutene på sin side vil nå ut til et landsdekkende marked. Fysionett vil også gjøre det mulig for nyetablerte eller terapeuter som nettopp har fullført utdanning å selge sin kompetanse uten å være tilknyttet en klinikk eller arbeidsgiver. Fysionett skal bli Norges første og største plattform for online fysioterapi hvor fysioterapeuter fra hele landet kan registrere seg, opprette en profil og tilby sine tjenester til kunder over hele landet. Forretningsmodellen bygger på tjenesteformidling i et tosidig marked, ikke veldig ulikt plattformer som Uber, Lyft eller AirBnb og retter seg hovedsakelig mot det private markedet. Den pågående COVID-19 pandemien har fungert som en katalysator for denne ideen. Siden plattformen tilrettelegger for at terapeuter skal nå ut til sine kunder i form av videokonsultasjon og chat. På denne måten får de muligheten til å opprettholde sin virksomhet mens pandemien pågår.

Wicomico

We're helping people live together Wicomico is an app for coliving. We help neighbors communicate, plan or attend events, share resources, and tap into all the goodies that come with the coliving revolution. Our app is for any community: Student housing in Mumbai, Senior Villages in Florida, Scandinavian hippie utopias, or the urban professional with access to rooms in any European capital. Real Estate is changing. Driven by widely different shifts in demographics, any real estate developer knows that in the future we will live closer together, share more, and organize in new ways where we live. Our app helps coliving tenants and operators with all their day-to-day activities, such as sharing a car, planning communal dining, booking office space or guest apartments, attending yoga classes, subscribing to cleaning services, reporting issues to facility management, and much, much more. The main idea is to get tenants involved so they become better neighbors.

KOLD Design Aps / EASE

We bring EASE to your healthy lifestyle.. The EASE project began as a result of my son wanted to bring along my healthy homemade smoothies to school, but he complained that the smoothies became warm and did not look very delicious after a few hours. We could not find a bottle that would keep our smoothies cold, that was not made from either metal or plastic - a bottle in the right materials for our health. So we came up with EASE. We have designed the EASE bottle for juice and smoothies, and other cold drinks you want to take with you - either from home or from your local juicebar. The EASE bottle are made from sustainable materiales and keep your drinks cold for hours and make it easy to drink from, with the build in straw - So no more metal tasting juice from stainless steel bottles, warm smoothies - and most of all - NO MORE SINGLE USE PLASTIC from your take away juicebar or kiosk. Our vision is to make it easy to live healthy, with great design and at the same time make it easy to stop using single use plastic.

Mutual Benefits Group, MBE

1. In Mutual Benefits Group we aim to improve properties and society’s climate impact by AI. The tool DEEP (Digitized Energy Efficiency Portal), has been developed by Smartergy* to optimize buildings and its equipments energy performance with Machine Learning in real time to help property owners and tenants to understand and improve their energy consumption. Today we work together with Chalmers (Digitalisation/AI) and RISE (Energy Management) with support from VGR and EU. *Organized under MBE until investor is chosen. 2. DEEP utilize adaptive AI control instead of manual analysis and control. Results in lower energy consumption, lower cost, risk mitigation if co-workers quit and less climate impact. Investments in energy efficiency also stimulate the economy, in particular the construction industry, which generates about 9% of Europe’s GDP and directly accounts for 18 million direct jobs. MBE together with other SMEs(Small and Medium sized Enterprizes) would particularly benefit from a boosted renovation market, as they contribute more than 70% of the value added in the EU building sector. (EC, Energy performance of buildings) DEEP stimulates to tangible optimization in the company Time saving - relieves employees up to 60% to do other important things. Energy & Cost Savings - in addition to 15-50% energy savings, data collection and "automatic facility manager" pointing out next equipment to update. DEEP contributes concretely to Agenda 2030 goals: 7 - Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all. 7.2 - Substantially increase the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix. 8 - Promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all. 13.3 - Improve education, raise awareness and human and institutional capacity for adaptation, early warning indication, climate change mitigation measures and its consequences. 3. We have committed co-workers (MSc, PhD) within SW-dev, Test&Verification, Project management, Power Electronics and Quality assurance. We support the automotive industry amongst other technologies with Machine learning for Autonomus driving vehicles. We have performed a demo version of the DEEP tool at a sawing mill and are since 2019 performing a Pilot Case for one a big facility owner (revenue 10,6 B€) for an office building of 4500 sqm in Gothenburg. The DEEP tool optimizes buildings energy efficiency by measurement, logging, analyzing and control the buildings equipment and manufacturing machines by AI. Large buildings* HVAC system are usually controlled by a PLC. DEEP communicates (read&write) with the PLC by OPC server, API or other interface. The data is stored in the MySQL database which is read from the AI-unit, who analyse the data through a data driven Deep Reinforcement Learning, DRL algorithm. The control signal is communicated to the PLC who controls the equipment. The DRL gets a positive or negative reward depending on the step. *Offices, Schools, Hospitals, Hotels, Industrial facilities, enough sized condonomiums. 4: The DEEP story 2017 we wanted to create an easy-to-understand product, with advanced technology, giving our property owners and tenants lower costs, improved climate impact and more time for important value-adding things. After several years in climate-smart real estate solutions, we found that property management could receive valuable support from AI-based tools that automatically identify the optimal where and when it shall control, and automatically does it. MBE has experience of technical assignments in autonomous driving vehicles. We are confident with AI algorithm development. We would like to transfer our knowledge to the real estate industry, as it nevertheless contributes to almost twice as much climatic impact as road transport (IEA, Digitalization & Energy, 2017) Therefore we develop DEEP (Digitized Energy Efficiency Portal)…

Children of Ash

Welcome to Children of Ash, an ongoing research project devoted to Viking ornamental art and its understanding. We are developing a new museum platform application designed to use technology as an interface to present academic research to museum visitors in a visually accessible and understandable way. Our focus is on the ornamental tradition of Late Iron Age Scandinavia, expressed as a proper language, with its 'vocabulary', 'grammar', 'syntax' and 'dialects', throughout its development. To achieve that, the original works found through archaeology are studied and 'digested' to extract their canons and underlying principles, which we present to in comprehensive visual breakdowns as well as detailed background information. A true glimpse into the Viking mind.
