IoT Fabrikken was founded in 2018 by Mikkel Fischer and Jon Wichmann. However, the foundation of the company was laid long before that. The founding partners brought with them a strong track record, having previously built two highly successful tech enterprises: DIBS, a pioneer in secure online payments, which is today owned by Nets, and eSmiley, the leading provider of digital food safety solutions for professional kitchens, canteens, and hospitals across the Nordic region. Together, they share more than 25 years of in-depth expertise in developing software designed to make daily operations simpler. This experience forms the very core of IoT Fabrikken. As our name suggests, we harness the power of the Internet of Things (IoT) to remove complexity. We believe that securing vital data should be as simple as mounting a sensor that automatically finds the network and starts delivering insights. Our guiding principle is that technology must always support your daily work – it should be precise, entirely dependable, and accessible to everyone, regardless of their level of IT proficiency. Today, IoT Fabrikken operates from two offices in Denmark, located in Roskilde in the east and Hørning in the west. We also collaborate closely with dedicated partners across several countries, with Germany and Sweden standing out as two of our most significant growth markets. What started as a vision between two men has grown into a highly successful enterprise that makes a tangible difference every day. Currently, we deliver our solutions to 70 Danish municipalities, alongside a wealth of private businesses, housing associations, museums, churches, and industry advisors. We are incredibly proud that thousands of customers now rely on our system daily to support and elevate their work within facility management, space management, and cultural preservation.

Yesper is the AI civil engineer for construction and infrastructure. Construction and infrastructure teams lose enormous time to manual, document-heavy work — reading tenders, taking off quantities, checking deliverables against the rules. Yesper's AI agents read a project's documents, drawings and models, reason against the Swedish standards, regulations and contracts a project runs on (AMA, AB 04, PBL, Miljöbalken and more), and deliver whole pieces of engineering work: tender review, quantity takeoff from BIM/IFC and drawings, and compliance checks — each with page-level source citations. It integrates live Swedish authority data (Trafikverket, SGU, SMHI, Lantmäteriet), computes in code so the numbers hold, and stores data in the EU.

Baser Baser is a family-owned, direct-to-consumer brand designing premium parasols, patio umbrellas, and bases. Founded on Scandinavian design principles, radical honesty, and a genuine commitment to sustainability, we help families across Europe and Australia make outdoor shade decisions they won't regret. We currently operate across four markets — Denmark, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Australia — with the ambition to become the modern market leader in e-commerce shade solutions across Australia, the US, the UK, and Europe. It's a category that has been overlooked for decades, and we see clear white space to build something better. What makes us different Nearly every umbrella in the world is produced by the same handful of factories and sold the same impersonal way: through retailers, marketplaces, and middlemen with no real relationship to the end customer. We took the opposite path. Baser is a fully digital, content-led, direct-to-consumer brand — and as far as we know, the only one in our category combining mid-to-high quality, an online-first model, content leadership, and genuinely personal service. That personal service is central to who we are. Instead of chatbots and call centres, customers get real, human guidance — including founder-led advice that helps them choose exactly the right product for their space. We'd rather educate someone honestly than push them toward the most expensive option, and that approach has earned us the trust of thousands of families. Products built to last We don't believe shade should be disposable. Our products are engineered to outlast the seasons and the trends: 100% aluminium frames — no rust, no wobble, wind-tested to 50 km/h Solution-dyed fabrics that hold their colour for years rather than fading after one summer Certified UV protection up to UPF 80+, with real, verifiable numbers PFAS-free across the entire range — safe for families and the environment GRS-certified recycled materials throughout, including our patented sandbag base system Backed by a 5-year spare-parts guarantee and a 10-year frame guarantee If something breaks, we fix it. We're building products people keep, not replace. Our values and culture We're a small, ambitious team that takes our work seriously without taking ourselves too seriously. We value honesty over hype, quality over shortcuts, and specificity over vague claims. We're transparent about how and where our products are made, and proud of the quality behind them. Above all, we're building a company where people feel trusted, supported, and clear on what success looks like — grounded in strong human values and high standards, as we grow into new markets around the world.

Buildright is developing an AI intelligence layer for construction projects to help contractors and project teams solve invisible risk — by turning the data already generated on every project into actionable insights before problems become costs. The problem hiding in plain sight Construction is broken. 85% of large projects finish over budget. Rework accounts for 9% of total project cost. Delays cost $280bn annually in North America alone. The signals that predict these outcomes already exist — in meeting notes, deviation logs, change orders, and task lists. But no one sees them in time to act. Risk only becomes visible after it has already cost you. This affects every contractor, project manager, site foreman, and HSE officer on every project — in an industry that represents trillions in global economic activity. From raw data to the right decision Buildright connects the data already generated on construction projects and surfaces the right insight to the right person — at every level of the organisation. Project directors get cross-project risk visibility to see which projects need attention before they escalate. PMs, HSE managers, and quality leads get role-specific dashboards with the decisions they need to make, surfaced daily. Site crews get targeted microlearning triggered automatically when a risk pattern is detected — before the next shift starts. But we go beyond insights. Buildright also automates the everyday tasks that consume project teams — generating alerts when something needs attention, and producing artifacts like meeting packs, reports, and change-order traces automatically. The result is not just better visibility, but a meaningfully more efficient project team. We're live in production with AF Gruppen and Betonmast, two of Norway's largest contractors. 100,000+ deviations, tasks, and meeting notes analysed — with a confirmed 10x ROI from our pilots. The urge to solve a global problem Lars Gaustad spent years at the top of the construction industry — and watched the same story play out over and over. Projects bleeding money. Deadlines slipping. And when it was over, everyone moved on. No real post-mortem. No learning. Just the next project, making the same mistakes. The industry wasn't short of ambition. It wasn't short of software. It was drowning in data it couldn't use. As CEO of Saint-Gobain Construction Products in Norway, Lars saw that the real problem wasn't digitalization — it was that decades of hard-won project knowledge was locked away, invisible, unreachable to the people who needed it most. Every project started from scratch. Every mistake was someone else's first time. That's not a technology problem. It's a fundamental failure to learn. And it's costing the industry hundreds of billions every year. That's why we build the construction industry's intelligence layer.

EquaFish is a company developing the only complete decision-making tool for fish farm operation. The AquaCulture industry is facing mass mortality and decreased yields as a result of knowledge and data being fragmented througout the farm. One facility usually have 10-15 different systems, Excell sheets and notes where only 10-15% of the functionality is actually used. EquaFish streamlines, process and visualize the data so that every employee, no matter role, understand the plan, status and future of the production. This $140B problem is faced by salmon farmers, telapia, halibut, shellfish and char farmers all alike. The tech is the same, even though the species is not. EquaFish has a SaaS solution bringing all growth, water quality, mortality and feed data into one, exploiting mathematical and statistical data processing to find causes and effects, which the fish farmer can act upon. The result is higher yield with reduced risks in the production, increased effiency, knowledge sharing and learning with the employees. Finally fish produced in more stable environments with less risk of death and non-friendly conditions. EquaFish was startet on the belief that one of the biggest industries deserve the newest and best tools. The time of post-it notes, Excell and systems from the 90s died 15years ago and the AquaCulture industry didnt get the memo. So if you want to create real change for a sustainable, profitable and animal friendly industry, EquaFish is the place that gets that done.

Nørd Studio is a Scandinavian branding and packaging agency based in Copenhagen (we work fully remote). We create human brands that communicate clearly and effectively without resorting to shouting. That last part matters. In a world of loud, trend-chasing designs, we deliberately do things differently. Minimal. Honest. Considered.

We specialise in branding, including logos, visual systems, packaging, stationery and pitch decks. We write copy that sounds human, not like a press release. We also build websites from scratch — no templates or shortcuts, just fast, SEO-ready sites. We're a small studio, and that's intentional. Every client works directly with the people doing the work. Every project receives our full attention. There are no account managers, no handoffs and no diluted output. We're not looking to grow quickly. We want to grow well, with the right people on the right projects.
