Global Startup Awards (GSA) was born out of the Danish startup ecosystem through the Nordic Startup Awards in 2012. What began as a regional initiative has grown into the world’s largest independent startup competition platform, now covering 154 countries across 19 regions. Through its competition framework and flagship events, GSA connects startups, investors, corporates, governments, and ecosystem enablers to showcase and accelerate innovation on both regional and global levels. GSA has offices in Copenhagen and Budapest and works closely with governments, investors, and business partners worldwide. Its model operates through a licensee-and-partnership structure, in which external organisations under the GSA framework lead several regional programs. Beyond competitions, GSA has evolved into a global innovation platform spanning multiple pillars — from events and content to data, insights, and venture partnerships — that drives collaboration between the public and private sectors to strengthen innovation ecosystems around the world.

Buildright is a Norwegian contech startup building AI-powered risk and deviation intelligence for the construction industry. Construction projects generate huge amounts of data: deviations, checklists, inspection plans and meeting minutes. Most of it is never used to prevent the next mistake. Buildright changes that. Our platform pulls data from the systems contractors already use, analyses deviations and subcontractor performance, and turns it into concrete insights. That way, site managers and project managers walk into meetings with facts instead of digging through reports. We work with one of Norway's largest general contractors, where our solution is being rolled out across several divisions. We are backed by StartupLab and based at Construction City in Oslo, Norway's largest cluster for the construction industry. Our goal: fewer repeated mistakes, safer projects, and a construction industry that actually learns from its own data.

Gorilla Health & Gorilla Juice - Who We Are The problem we're solving Eating healthy in a busy city is inconvenient. If you want something genuinely fresh and natural, you usually have to choose between convenience and quality- grab something fast that's full of preservatives and added sugar, or spend real time and effort tracking down something that's actually good for you. Most "healthy" options on the market aren't as clean as they claim, and the ones that are tend to be slow, expensive, or hard to access. Our answer: the Fast-Health Protocol™ We believe healthy shouldn't mean inconvenient. Gorilla Health is building a health and wellness universe around one core idea. Make the healthiest choice also the easiest one. No compromises, no shortcuts on quality, but built for how people actually live: busy, on the move, and short on time. Gorilla Juice - our first concept Gorilla Juice is a juice bar in Copenhagen (Østerbro) bringing that philosophy to life. Everything from juices, smoothies, shots, açaí bowls, is made fresh the moment it's ordered. Nothing sits around, nothing is made in advance and reheated. We've extended that same idea to businesses: fresh juice delivered straight to office desks several times a week, so healthy habits don't require anyone to leave their building. Today, we are the best-reviewed juice bar in Denmark, with approx. 200, 5 star reviews and counting. Beyond the juice bar We also distribute authentic açaí, a superfruit from the Amazon in Denmark, working directly to supply cafés, restaurants, and retailers who want to offer something genuinely natural to their own customers. It's the same mission from a different angle: making a healthy, authentic product easy for other businesses to access and serve. Why it matters We're not just selling juice or fruit - we're trying to prove that convenience and health don't have to be a trade-off. That's the problem at the center of everything we build, and it's what makes Gorilla Health more than a single product: it's a platform for making the healthy choice the obvious one, and our members are first in line to get all the benefits.

Easy, Fast & Fair Claim Settlements. We are developing ValueChecker to be the global brains of insurance product claims. ValueChecker technology enables fast and accurate determination of the fair claim values of damaged products, their replacement alternatives and where those replacements can be bought today.

The current method of claims evaluation is both labor intensive and arbitrary, resulting in a random and sometimes unfair damage compensation value to the customer. ValueChecker today helps numerous Insurers in Europe and beyond to deliver better service and save 20% on damage compensation and operations.
