Research shows that 80% of Small business owners and startups don't have the tools, time or budget to make videos at the volume and quality needed to compete. So I decided to create an alternative route for SMBs and startups to reach the market - this one is via low cost, high-quality video production marketplace. Optix.io is a two-sided creative marketplace that connects creative video freelancers with SMBs and startups and brings them together to work quickly, reliably, and flexibly at a fixed cost. We have done lots of research in this field (as our team has an extensive background in video creation for the biggest brands and companies, and we know what mistakes are most common for the clients and freelancers. That's why we have drafted the right set of options to provide the perfect outcome. How It All Works. The client uploads a brief of what they would like to film, pick a date and time, confirm terms and conditions hit pay; we will then match them with a creative freelancer that will show up on the date, film edit and deliver on the same day. Freelancers will be able to capture more of their earning potential without having to compromise on quality. At the same time, clients can get more value for their money by tapping into the creative minds of independent creators. I'm Farzad, founder of Optix.io. I have over 17 years of experience in video creation. I have worked for the biggest brands and companies in Norway like TV2 and internationally like Google, Siemens and MTV. I have always had multiple requests from SMBs and startups to create content for them, but unfortunately, they couldn't always afford the rates, so with Optix, I'm making it affordable and effective. Optix is a small startup from Oslo/Norway, and We believe in small businesses. So we're here to help them grow and create the best video content possible from start to finish. And hope you can join us on our journey. ​ optixmedia.io | matchmade to create

Attini is a startup that is currently managed by the founders and now we are looking for new colleagues that together with us can create a world class IT company! As one of our first employees you will have every opportunity to affect the direction of the company and become a partner with equity. It’s very important for us to have fun at work. Therefore you have to be passionate about your work and want to be part of a fun company culture. We have developed a CI/CD product for the Cloud which is built on AWS and specialized on managing larger IT environments. Attini has built a new way to package and distribute “Infrastructure as Code” which enables new ways of working that is more robust, easier to test and scales a lot better than current solutions.

We provide disinfection solutions to both retail and commercial customers with no touch hand sanitiser stations, which are using 0% alcohol sanitiser, certified to be effective against SARS-CoV-2, Norovirus, MRSA, E.Coil and HygiTouch antimicrobial coatings as a service to the business. We have the distribution rights for Finland with all our unique products. At this stage, there have been few restrictions on hand sanitisers in Finland, and we believe that this will become more strict as time goes on. Our products and services provide safe facilities and a better customer experience with high quality. Sanitiser and protective coatings are very new to the markets, people and companies are not educated in this area, which the global pandemic has caused much confusion and rush to just put a solution in to satisfy the needs as cheap as possible. It has been proven that up to 80% of transmissions come from our hands, and using common alcogels with ethanol are not only destroying peoples hands but are harmful to the environment and are a major safety risk. Normal sanitisers are cheap but come at a hefty price when we know the damages they cause, this is very difficult to make the customers understand. Our presentation of products is to help in the fight against the COVID-19 pandemic and also look after peoples health. We know our products are the future and we are in the market at the right time to make the major change and awareness of using a safe sanitiser that is effective against germs and viruses. HygiSan is here to help make safe spaces!

The world will be forced to move into the direction of renewable energy, and already many consumers would want to contribute to that. However, there is a problem: the investment is significant, number of technical solutions is high and growing, and it is hard to calculate the true return on your investment. Simply put: the risk is too big for an average consumer. We have a solution for that. We help you remove the risk, and prevent you from making a bad investment. We are developing a two-stage SaaS-product which optimizes customer value before and during the lifetime of the investment. This is an aftermarket solution which can be applied to any brand system. Software is on MVP stage with market validation, hardware on proto stage. Next step is to integrate the two stages into one cloud-based platform. Our vision is that Poss Balance is THE solution for a home owner to monitor and control their whole energy system in real time.

Our vision is to democratize elderly care by giving this group ownership over their life experiences and activities. The Biosfär is a welfare innovation relying on mixed digital and physical realities to deliver IMAX-like experiences for elderly with dementia. Our product is both a media installation and a pedagogy, breaking down physical and mental barriers to activate all human senses and experiences. With the help of mixed digital technology, Biosfär allows access to and control over daily activities otherwise unavailable to elderly living in assisted care facilities. After 2+ years of testing and participant observation, we have developed 4 concepts and a platform of workshops that fill human needs and are tailored to elderly with dementia. This includes (1) therapy, (2) lifelong learning, (3) story sharing and (4) festive social gatherings. In this time, we've brought residents to never before seen trips, into boat-building workshops, and down memory lane. This has led to 3 - 5x the amount of participation in daily activities at nursing homes, ventures into uncharted territory and one resident who began to speak after being diagnosed mute.

Ferdia har som mål å digitalisere og fornye turbussbransjen gjennom en Uber-lignende tilnærming. Vi skal revolusjonere turbussmarkedet gjennom å digitalisere små og mellomstore turbusselskap og ved å gjøre det mye enklere å leie og bruke turbusser. Det være seg til firmaturer, festivaler eller fotballkamper. Turbussbransjen i Europa er preget av et stort antall busselskap og lite digitalisering. 85% av tiden står bussene parkert eller kjører på veien uten passasjerer i setene. Våre nye digitale tjenester kombinert med maskinlæring og rute-optimalisering vil gjøre det mulig å utnytte bussenes kapasitet mye mer effektivt enn i dag. Vi har fått støtte fra Innovasjon Norge, inngått samarbeid med Tide, et av Norges største busselskap, og har begynt arbeidet med internasjonalisering. Dette blir et spennende år!
