Young Sustainable Impact (YSI) was started in 2016 by a group of youth in Norway who saw the cop21, Paris conference and looked ahead.We believe innovation and entrepreneurship can solve most of our challenges in the world, that youth are the driving force, and in collaboration with the experienced and established – it can be done. Innovation program: We aim to find the best talents in the world, to create impact startups to tackle the UN Sustainable Development Goals.  In Oslo we are a group of very different people, who somehow ended up together, with the same mission. We have fun, excited people who are trying their best to help people and at the same time grow into becoming that person who can influence the world in a positive direction. It's about the main goal, and not being recognized yourself - which is why any disagreement we have, turns out in a positive energy. The power of trying to get YSI to do the most good, is vital! We have found a great spot in Greenhouse, with a gaming room, ping pong, garden on the roof, (A ROOF), and other cool companies from all fields imaginable.At the same time, we work with teams in Bangladesh, South-East Asia, and China. Extremely different cultures, who also have the same goal as us. This is both hard and exciting at the same time.

Dashl is digital beauty booking concierge providing beauty services for everyone, anywhere. You come to us in one of our Beauty Bars (currently at H&M and IvyRevel), or we come to you at home, work or your hotel room. Dashl’s vision is to redefine the beauty industry, for consumers and professionals, through a trusted and scalable tech platform which provides high quality beauty services wherever, whenever.  Let’s be completely honest, we do like a bit of a challenge. That’s why we’ve set out to build a platform like no other. Usually people build either a marketplace, or a digital booking platform, a photo sharing app, or a payment solution. We decided to build a platform with all of those features. Why? Because it’s 2017 and it’s ridiculous that we don't have information about a hair or beauty professionals availability, pricing, portfolio and reviews in one single place. Oh, and then the ability to turn that content to commerce. With Dashl you can Book the Look. We want to ensure that our users have access to all of their hair and beauty needs at the tip of their fingers. After all, they don’t call us a personal digital beauty concierge for nothing *brushes off shoulders*.   The Dashl team is diverse from different backgrounds and cultures. We all have very different professional backgrounds, skillsets and experiences, which when brought together creates magic. We all get along really well and have fun working. We think it's important not only to be passionate of what you do but also looking forward to going into the office and working with your colleagues. Team Dashl is driven by innovation and problem solving. We never look for quick fixes, as we know that dedication and hard work will continue to strengthen the foundation that we have already built. We like to work with people that are creative, driven and dedicated. We have an inclusive mentality, where we encourage ideas and suggestions as everyone plays an important role. Although we all have very clear responsibilities and work independently we are team players when and where required as we’re working together towards a shared goal.   We like to set trends as opposed to follow them, and that’s the kind of people that we want to work with and have in our team! We are looking for the ultimate team players who are passionate, fun to work with and not afraid to reach for greatness!

Electricity Maps provides actionable electricity data for more than 200 regions. We help businesses more effectively reduce their emissions, and enable products and services to differentiate their offerings by empowering end-users to be more carbon-aware. As wind and solar production fluctuate throughout the day, this information needs to be dynamic and updated in real-time. As this real-time information about the physical origin of electricity will be scrutinized and challenged by many parties, the effort has to be collaborative, open, and transparent. This is what motivated the creation of Electricity Maps. It started as a simple real-time data visualization in June 2016 and turned into a comprehensive data platform with high scientific integrity. More than 40,000 people use our app on a daily basis and market leaders like Google and Microsoft, are using our API for extensive projects in order to reach their climate goals and help their users take action against climate change. Our goal: a truly decarbonized electricity system. To get there, we will organize the world's electricity information, and use it to drive the transition toward a truly decarbonized electricity system.

Cleenki is building an AI-native marketplace for home cleaning to help busy households in Sweden book trusted, recurring cleaning in seconds, while giving independent cleaners fair pay and the tools to build a stable business. Our secret sauce: by treating cleaners well and letting them work for themselves, we turn motivated cleaners into loyal, long-term customer relationships that traditional agencies cannot match. The cleaning industry is built on a broken chain. Traditional cleaning companies pay low wages and treat cleaners poorly, which kills motivation. Unmotivated, underpaid cleaners churn constantly, which makes it hard for customers to find a reliable local cleaner and build a long-term relationship. The result is a poor customer experience across the entire industry: no-shows, inconsistent quality, and constant turnover on both sides of a market that should be built on trust and recurring stability. This affects almost every busy household in Sweden. With RUT making professional cleaning affordable for a large share of the population, demand is huge, yet the experience for both customers and the people doing the actual work has barely improved in decades. Cleenki is a marketplace that matches households with vetted independent cleaners and turns one-off jobs into recurring relationships. Customers book in minutes, pay securely by card, and keep the same cleaner over time. Our edge is the cleaners themselves. On Cleenki, cleaners work for themselves or run small cleaning businesses, so they genuinely care about their customers and do the little extra every single time. We are deeply focused on cleaner wellbeing, because we know that motivated, fairly treated cleaners are what create happy, loyal customers. We take a cut of each booking, and over time we are building the operating system underneath the marketplace: automated scheduling, payments, subscriptions, and the daily operations a cleaning business needs to run, so any cleaner or small company can eventually run their entire business on Cleenki. We are live and growing steadily, with over 100 paying recurring customers and 10 to 25 one-off bookings per month. The cleaning industry is outdated. Customers demand convenience, cleaners demand fairness, and sustainability matters more than ever. Cleenki delivers all three at exactly the right moment. We start in Stockholm, then expand across Sweden, the Nordics, and beyond. Before Cleenki, I started a traditional cleaning company (Cleanest Sweden AB). That is where I really got to know the industry from the inside. I interviewed and worked with dozens of cleaners, and over and over I heard the same two patterns. The first was unfair treatment: low pay, stressful schedules, and managers who simply did not care about them as people. The second was a dream. Almost every cleaner I spoke to wanted the same thing: to work for themselves, on their own terms. That is what fired the spark. I realized the cleaning industry is broken in a way that hurts everyone at once. Cleaners carry the whole business on their backs but are treated as disposable, and customers suffer the consequences through constant turnover and unreliable service. Cleenki is my way of fixing both sides at the same time: giving cleaners the independence, fair pay, and recurring income they dream of, and giving households cleaners who actually care. This is not just a booking app to me. It is a mission to give an overlooked workforce ownership over their working lives.

Hubb is the leading Nordic chain of virtual restaurants — kitchens built from the ground up specifically for food delivery. We serve more than 100,000 customers yearly across all our locations in Greater Copenhagen, with sales reaching DKK +50 million annually and turning profits. We've raised more than DKK 30 million from investors. Who are we and what do we do? We're a team of ambitious founders who have built start-ups before, with prior experience from both the food delivery industry, tech, and in the high-culinary world of Michelin restaurants. We run small, efficient, delivery-only kitchens with no tables, waiters, or front-of-house staff. Around 80% of our orders are delivered and 20% picked up, through platforms like Wolt and Uber Eats, where we are one of the largest brands. Our food is developed by Michelin-trained chefs across four of the most popular take-away categories — burgers, fried chicken, Greek gyros, and Asian bao buns — which customers can mix in a single order, all engineered to still taste great after a 20-minute delivery. Great food, built to be delivered. We deliver consistently excellent, delivery-first food: 500,000+ orders served to date, 80%+ repeat purchases, and an 8.8/10 rating across 50,000+ reviews, twice named Denmark's highest-rated restaurant on Wolt. The problem we solve: most restaurant food is designed for the dining room, not the doorstep, so it arrives late, soggy, and inconsistent — while the restaurants making it lose money to delivery's high commissions and operational complexity. At the same time, independent restaurateurs sit with half-empty kitchens, with capacity they cannot monetise properly to turn a profit. Hubb fixes both sides. We operate our own kitchens, and we partner with restaurants that operate a virtual Hubb venue from their existing kitchens. We turn their idle capacity into profit with a turnkey virtual brand — we give them our proven menus, recipes, suppliers, on-site staff training, and branded packaging — while we run the platforms, marketing, and support. They simply cook. Now, we're looking to scale to become the biggest virtual take-away brand across food delivery platforms in the Nordics, with ambitions to open a virtual restaurant in every city and local area with food delivery platforms serving customers. We believe we are pioneering the next big thing in the food delivery industry, and hope you would like to submit an application to come to join us in this effort.
