SHADES Underwear is a purpose-driven startup redefining what “nude” means in fashion. We create underwear in an inclusive range of skin-tone shades and sizes, because the industry has long failed to represent the diversity of real bodies. Our mission is rooted in representation, empowerment, and belonging – building products and a brand that make people feel seen, respected, and comfortable in their own skin. We believe that underwear is not just a basic, but a powerful foundation for confidence and self-expression.

We are building Commu, a platform that helps cities strengthen community, reduce loneliness, and improve wellbeing through everyday acts of help between people. Across Europe, municipalities are facing the same problem: Loneliness is increasing (especially among elderly, newcomers and vulnerable groups). Preventive wellbeing work is underfunded and fragmented and cities struggle to activate citizens in a scalable, measurable way. At the same time, there are thousands of people who want to help but no simple structure to connect them with real needs. Commu solves this gap. We enable municipalities to activate residents, organizations and volunteers into one shared digital community, where people can easily ask for help, offer help, and participate in meaningful local actions. Cities get visibility, data and impact. People get connection, purpose and a sense of belonging. Cities need modern tools to support participation, not just services We already work with municipalities internationally, and now we are building Sweden from scratch. This is not about maintaining a system it’s about creating a new way for cities and people to work together.

Willit is a digital marketplace for Nordic wild and natural foods for example wild fish, game, foraged berries and mushrooms, and artisanal farm products. The problem: Finland has a €950M market for these products, yet 90% of wild berries go unpicked and 55% of harvesters cannot find buyers. Informal channels like Facebook groups lack payments, logistics, and trust. This is not a supply problem. It is a marketplace failure. Our solution: Willit provides the missing infrastructure. We handle payments, coordinate logistics, and build trust through verified sellers and transparent product information. We unlock latent supply and connect consumers with products that would otherwise never reach the market. Why now: Growing demand for traceable, sustainable food combined with regulatory complexity creates the right conditions for a purpose-built marketplace. We navigate compliance while preserving Nordic food culture.

✅ 1: Short description (the pitch) SGC Arena is developing a combined TCG retail store, gaming lounge and community-driven event center to help youth, families and adult gamers find a safe, engaging and social space to play, compete and belong. We solve the lack of modern, inclusive gaming- and hobby environments by offering a 655 m² hybrid hub built around TCG, esport, community events and structured activities, powered by strong partnerships, low inventory risk and a highly scalable franchise-ready model. ✅ 2: The What – The problem we are solving Across Denmark, young people and adult hobby enthusiasts lack safe, structured and inspiring spaces to gather around gaming, TCG and shared interests. Most environments are either too small, too informal or lacking supervision, creating a gap between commercial gaming cafés and traditional youth facilities. At the same time, parents struggle to find positive, healthy gaming communities for their children, while hobby players (Pokémon, Magic, Lorcana) lack dedicated spaces for trading, events and tournaments. This problem affects: Children and teens seeking social belonging Adults looking for hobby communities Parents who want structured and safe gaming spaces TCG players who currently lack large-scale physical hubs Municipalities who need modern, engaging offers for youth Retail customers who want combined experiences, not just shops The demand is widespread and growing. TCG, gaming and event-based hobby retail are among the fastest-growing entertainment segments in Europe. Yet Denmark remains underserved with almost no large-scale hybrid centers combining retail, gaming, community and structured activities. SGC Arena fills this gap. ✅ 3: The How – How we solve it SGC Arena provides a 655 m² multi-zone environment combining: A full-service TCG retail store (Pokémon, Magic, Lorcana etc.) A high-end gaming lounge with esport setups A large event area for tournaments, competitions and community gatherings A social “hobby lounge” for trading, crafting and relaxed gaming A forening-driven model with daily structured activities Weekend programs with 500–1.000 visitors Consignationsaftaler reducing inventory risk dramatically A scalable operations manual and franchise blueprint for expansion to 3–8 locations Each weekday features structured activities through our association: Esport teams (20 participants daily) Hobby/TCG clubs (up to 40 per session) Weekends host large-scale TCG events, family activities, adult gaming evenings and trading meetups — creating predictable, high-volume traffic. The concept is built to scale: simple operational procedures, strong supplier partnerships, low-risk inventory, and a community-first structure that can be replicated nationally. ✅ 4: The Why – Our motivation SGC Arena is founded by Heinrich Dam Jensen, former owner of the esports organization Dream Gaming in Rødovre Centrum, where he built a strong and healthy gaming community in 2020. When COVID forced that project to close, it sparked a deep understanding of what young people and hobby-focused adults truly need: a safe, structured, social and modern environment that supports healthy gaming behavior and real-world connections. The vision has grown stronger since. Heinrich has a background in police, defence, leadership and youth work, and has seen firsthand how powerful gaming and structured hobbies can be when given the right environment. This is the foundation of SGC Arena: creating Denmark’s leading chain of gaming- and TCG-based community hubs. The motivation is simple: to give youth, families and adult hobbyists a place to belong — and to build a scalable, commercially strong concept that brings community and business together.

Laavu is a Finland-based performance coaching company built for entrepreneurs, executives and key talent who want to lead with clarity, resilience and sustainable high performance. Our mission is to create a psychologically sustainable future, where taking care of your mind is as normal as taking care of your body. A world where going to a psychologist is as casual as having a personal trainer, where emotional skills are trained as proudly as biceps, and where psychological skills are seen as an essential foundation of success. Since our founding in 2020, we have supported leaders who face a universal yet often overlooked challenge: the psychological load of leadership. While companies invest heavily in strategy, tools and operations, few invest in strengthening the inner capacity of the people making the hardest decisions. Laavu offers research-based psychological coaching that helps leaders improve self-awareness, manage stress effectively, communicate with clarity and make decisions from a grounded, focused state. Our approach bridges psychotherapy and business coaching, offering in-depth yet goal-oriented support from a certified psychologist who truly understands the world leaders operate in. Laavu offers a comprehensive membership designed to support leaders continuously: The membership includes: • Regular 1-on-1 coaching sessions with a dedicated psychologist-coach • On-demand support between sessions • Access to Laavu App with goal tracking, notes, and curated material • Monthly community events that bring leaders together for peer-to-peer support, shared learning and open conversations about real leadership challenges. The goal of the membership is not only to solve problems but to create an ongoing environment where leaders grow steadily, stay mentally sharp, and maintain a sustainable pace year-round. By 2025, Laavu has grown into a team of 16 professionals serving over 230 leaders monthly from top-tier growth companies in Finland and abroad. Our members are telling a consistent story: when they truly understand their inner drivers, emotions, and patterns, they lead with more clarity, better judgment, and a stronger presence. Because, Mind is Your Own Business.
