Nära & Naturlig

🐟🦐 Next Generation of Aquaculture 🦐🐟 We are solving global sustainability problems at land-based fish and shrimp farming, with a new farming technology. Farmed seafood is an alternative towards wild caught seafood, therefore lowering the demand of wild caught seafood helps the transition towards sustainable wild fishing methods. But today's farming of fish and shrimp has challenges in feed, health, eutrophication and water consumption. Nära & Naturlig has developed a new farming technology and by mimicking nature's own way of cleaning water, the unsustainable challenges are solved and economical advantages are obtained. In our technology the farming water is cleaned in a natural way by algae, bacteria and other small organisms called microbes, instead of today's technical cleaning filters which need to replace 1-10% of the total water volume each day. For us the residual products from the farm are cleaned by these microbes and the fish/shrimp in its turn will eat the microbes, creating a natural ecosystem inside the farm which enables 100% reuse of all water and residual products. Also, this microbial farm enables microbial metabolism of food by-products, the system indirectly produces high quality fish and shrimp from these food by-products. The natural microbes give a natural feed for the fish/shrimp and a superior health is observed. Also the natural feed of microbes gives the farmed fish/shrimp a superior taste. Specific Data on the technology: 30% higher feed conversion rate, enabling 100% replacement of marine protein towards plant based in the feed, lowering protein content of feed by 34% without affecting growth rate and health, (this plant- based feed with lower protein levels constitutes a feed with lower environmental impact). This new technology is published in the scientific journal Aquaculture. 🦐🐟We are focusing on following global sustainability goals 🐟🦐 Nr 14 Life below water. We offer an alternative to wild caught seafood, which aids the establishment of sustainable fishing methods and enables recovery of the marine ecosystems Nr 12 Responsible production and consumption. We promote sustainable consumption and production through a circular water and nutrient system, that in the internal production is reusing all farming water and residual products. Nr 9 Sustainable industries and infrastructure. Industries become more sustainable through the reuse of their food by-products and waste heat. Serverhalls or industries with waste heat can be used to heat up the farm. N 2 Zero hunger. The final goal is to develop a sustainable fish/shrimp farming method in Sweden, which can be established internationally and above all help developing nations to get access towards safe and nutritious food produced in a sustainable way. The farming technology will be sold with a licence model towards self owned regional partners. Nära & Naturlig will sell farming unit-models that are easily scaled in numbers towards the requested farm size. Through a licence fee on the yearly turnover the partners get the knowledge transfer of how to create and maintain a safe and efficient farming system. The partner also needs consistent delivery of the secret recipe of premix material form Nära & Naturlig that sustains an efficient and safe system. Nära & Naturlig also constitute the whole-saler of the produced fish/shrimp from the partners and will sell through its high end brand of sustainable, natural, healthy and locally produced seafood. Sweden is seen as a good verification country and market, but as soon as possible the technology and fish/shrimp sales will be established internationally. 🦐

ProCollective

There is a paradigm shift in the way we work, as people around the world are opting to work on more flexible terms as freelancers. Nearly half (46%) of Generation Z workers are freelancers, signalling that freelancing is here to stay. As a result, companies need to equip themselves with the right technology to manage their freelance workforce strategically. However, companies are stuck using spreadsheets and email, resulting in a lack of visibility and control of their freelance activities. In 2021, we launched ProCollective, a Freelance Management System enabling companies to easily onboard, manage, and communicate with their external workers. So far, we've helped companies ditch their spreadsheets, and work together with their freelancer teams in a lightweight, easy-to-use system.

Ferdia

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!

Maka

Maka is a designer of premium quality bags, clothing, boards, and apparel for skaters currently launching worldwide with our first two products; water-resistant skateboard bags in two unique designs that make transporting your board 100x easier. Who is behind Maka? Maka is driven by a dedicated team in Medellín, Colombia. Maka is the brainchild of two skaters; Diego Pineda (CEO) and Jorge Calle (Lead Designer). Diego was born in Colombia but fled to Arizona, USA, with his family in 1999 due to violence. He picked up skating immediately and would go on to work for skate shops and tour the country with a team. He returned in 2008 to study International Business, although he never put down his board, certain that he would find a way to make a living out of skating. Jorge was born in raised in a small ghetto in Medellín, Colombia. While many of his friends found their way into drugs and violence, Jorge found his way forward in life either on top of a skateboard or behind a sewing machine. His true passion is to create without limits, to try, to fail, and to try again until he’s created the best there possibly could be. So Diego, why did you start Maka? I live a pretty simple life philosophy; I do what I enjoy doing. However, like everyone (especially skaters), it can be hard to do what you really enjoy and pay the bills. I’ve always looked up to the skate culture for inspiration ever since I started to understand it – the style, the clothes, the street, the attitude to be against the norm of society… It’s a close-knit community, although it’s an individual activity. You don’t need a team to be able to skate. It’s a way of self-expression, and that, for me, is the starting point of it all. What is the ambition of Maka? There are not many cultures that truly accept everyone. Skateboarding does. White, black, green, yellow, purple, tall, short, weird, funny, cool – everyone is accepted because it’s about your individuality. For the majority of my life, most of the people I’ve met come from skateboarding. It all comes down to having fun. Learning, falling, and getting back up. So, why does all of this relate to ambition? Because, while we’re taking the brand worldwide, we also want to seize the opportunity to support more kids with what skating has given us; a way to express ourselves, a sense of purpose, and life-long friends. Skating made our lives what they are, and now it’s time to give back. 10% of all profits go towards supporting social causes here in the city of Medellín. To follow us on our mission, we invite you to follow our social media to help more children find paths away from the drugs and violence that are still present in this city.

Green Heart of Copenhagen (CopenhagenCBD)

Becoming involved with us at Green Heart of Copenhagen GmbH may be one of those unique opportunities of truly making a positive difference in many peoples lives. CBD is a key ingredient of the cannabis plant, specifically coming from a type of plant called hemp and hold no psychoactive content. It is therefore regulated differently than psychoactive cannabis. The market opportunity is large. CBD makes up for almost 75% of the total European cannabis market and the market is growing rapidly. Reliable studies show that: - Many CBD products marketed contain only 28-55% of the declared CBD content - Many CBD products marketed contain the much weaker/cheaper synthetic CBD isolate instead of being based on broad or full spectrum CBD - Up to 38% of CBD products marketed contains THC above the legal limit (0.2% in Europe and 0.3% in the States) In addition, hemp is one of the fastest growing plants in the world and therefore easily absorbs pollution from the dirt and environment. This means that many CBD customers today are either purchasing: - a weaker CBD content than expected - may be purchasing an illegal product above the legal limit for THC and/or - may receive and be using a polluted CBD product. The Green Heart of Copenhagen GmbH solution to the above is based on: #1 Thorough due diligence of CBD suppliers globally #2 Tightly controlled supply chain #3 Extra layer of reliable third-party testing of all individual product batches before any products are offered for sale. Our ethical standards are among the very top of the CBD industry. Let us know if we should talk!
