Tropiq

Empowering coffee farmers and roasters to connect and improve coffee. Problem: Coffee farmers are the first hands in the supply chain, but also the ones that get paid the least. Coffee farmers are the most exposed, as with the changing environmental and financial climate, they hold the greatest risk of all: to not be able to sell their crop. At Tropiq we educate farmers on how to increase their overall quality. We also commit to buying a big part of their most prised coffees and bring them to market. In other words, we take pride in pre-committing to our suppliers/farmers each season so that they don't suffer any major losses. This commitment is not only financially driven, it's meant to give farmers the freedom to focus on quality and having a social impact.

AION by Aker BioMarine

Every year 282 million metric tonnes of plastic waste is produced worldwide, yet only 15% of this is recycled. This needs to change. AION’s purpose is to industrially scale a circular plastic economy. We make circularity happen at an industrial scale by working with our customers to identify opportunities to shift from linear to circular and grow their degree of circularity within plastic. Together with our partners we orchestrate a tailored, traceable and circular value chain for specific use cases. Our team of material, regulatory, logistics and business development experts work with companies to make sure the products and processes fit their existing operations, meet quality requirements and importantly have a tangible impact towards reducing their use of virgin plastic, reducing their CO2 footprint, and avoiding a generation of plastic waste.

SULONORTH

Helsinki-based digital marketing and language localization company SULONORTH was founded by Alina Lehtinen-Vela in 2019. Alina grew up in Finland’s Häme region and in the capital, Helsinki. After graduating with a degree in Scandinavian languages from the University of Helsinki, she spent a decade traveling the world and working in language localization, journalism, and marketing. Her writing has appeared in Finnish publications such as Mondo, Keskisuomalainen, Turun Sanomat and Etelä-Suomen Sanomat. Being a ‘digital nomad’ and working in a plethora of beach resorts, backstreet cafes, and border towns was fun though, alas, everyone grows up. The demand for localized digital marketing and direct engagement with online audiences was one of the reasons that she decided to set up shop back home in Finland. SULONORTH is now running at full throttle from a plant-filled office in Helsinki’s Lauttasaari district. Don’t stop her now! This isn’t to say Alina’s nomad days are entirely over. Follow SULONORTH on Instagram to see where she is now and enjoy some Finnish and English wordplay.

New Standard

New Standard was founded on the idea of change. Transforming the fashion system is necessary to face humanity's greatest environmental and climate challenges –and everyone can make a difference. Our way? Weaving style, quality, and comfort together with responsible practices. New Standard is creating the building blocks for wardrobes that stands the test of time. Our clothes are inspired by yesterday, designed for now, and constructed for tomorrow. We don't chase trends or design for seasons. Instead, we focus on perfecting a permanent collection that will serve its purpose for years to come. Our products are 100% recycled, and their CO2 footprint is 50% smaller than the same items made from virgin materials. We also use 99.9% less water our manufacturing process is free of harmful chemicals. To give people the information – the power – to connect the dots between their choices and impacts, we break down the value chain of each garment in their labels and our stores. From rising sea levels to extreme rainfall and more powerful heatwaves, the consequences of climate change can no longer be ignored – either by society or the fashion industry. It's now-or-never for our planet. We are in this to foster our industry towards greater ecological integrity by working together with other brands, manufacturers, policymakers, as well as consumers to drive the systemic change in fashion.

Den Lab

Do you wear stockings from time to time? In that case, you probably recognize the feeling of uncomfortableness when you’re attending an important meeting, but your stockings squeeze your stomach so much that you can’t focus. Or maybe the feeling of panic when you’re about to put on your favorite dress and go to a party, but realize you don’t have any whole pairs of stockings at home. I mean, why do they always seem to rip right when you need them? No matter the situation, stockings can cause a big hassle in everyday life of women, even undermining your sense of freedom and power. Not only are stockings a hassle, but they are actually made from crude oil and plastic, making them severely bad for the environment. The more we talked about these issues, the more frustrated we got. That’s when an idea was born: that a subscription service of comfortable and sustainable stockings, delivered to the doorstep, could be the end of a “running to buy a new pair at lunch”-era. A few months later, Den Lab was founded. Den Lab’s mission is to provide comfortable, sustainable stockings that suit all body types and become the leading subscription service for stockings in Europe. Our vision is to reduce unnecessary inconveniences for women in their everyday lives by creating a hassle-free stockings solution.

Layn

Layn has developed a mobile-based digital queueing system that enables businesses to increase customer satisfaction by adding a mobile platform to the customer journey. People hate standing in line in stores, at amusement park attractions, electrical charging points, hospitals, and restaurants. The list goes on. By using Layn, the customer can wait for the service where they want, postpone a ticket, use a Fastlane, VIP ticket, or Future ticket to get to the service they need as fast as possible. Layn has developed a cloud platform that lets businesses use whatever hardware they would like to solve their use case. The platform is flexible and extremely adaptable. There are cases with pure mobile to mobile operations, but there are also cases with touchscreen and digital signage solutions delivered by our partners. For some customers, we integrate the solution with access gates and existing operational systems to get the desired customer journey. Users can either get a paper ticket or use their mobile device to get an electronic ticket. We spend all our time developing a solution that is as intuitive, easy, and smart to use as possible. We aim at reducing the relative time felt waiting. In 2019 the two founders took a family trip to Paris to visit the Eiffel tower. After spending 2 hours in line to get through security and pay for their tickets, they had to go back at the end of the line again to wait for the rest of the family members. Like most people, they hate standing in line. They wanted to create a solution where they instead of physically having to stand in line rather could sit down and have a drink while waiting for their turn in the "digital line". After that, the number of use-cases has just exploded.
