make!mpact

make!mpact is a Nordic Impact Fintech startup with a focus on sustainability and impact investing. Our goal is to generate a positive societal impact by changing people’s financial behaviour.  make!mpact in a nutshell: We are not here to tell you how to live sustainable – nor are we here to tell you what is right or wrong when it comes to investing your money. We know that there are many ways in which you can make the world a better place, but we also know that one of the most effective ways to – collectively – make a difference, is by investing in companies that are helping to generate a positive societal impact. You might already now be thinking that investing is for someone with years of experience and deep industry knowledge – and of course, a lot of money to invest. While this may be true for many of the impact investors out there, it definitely shouldn’t stop you from getting started on your own impact investing journey – no matter your income or knowledge about investing and/or sustainability. Our m!club app matches the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to global listed companies that share the same values as you. Our goal is to enable you to make informed decisions about investments that align with your values represented in the 17 SDGs and thereby get you started investing with a sustainable mindset.

InterviewCopilot

InterviewCopilot is a privacy-first desktop app that helps candidates answer live interview questions with clarity and confidence. It detects each question in under a second and streams résumé- and job-description-aware guidance into a private overlay that stays outside screen shares. The app works alongside Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, and Webex without joining the call as a bot. Candidates use InterviewCopilot for behavioral, technical, coding, case, and system-design interviews. Live transcription preserves conversation context, screen analysis turns coding tasks and diagrams into focused guidance, and structured answer building adapts responses to STAR, technical trade-offs, or case frameworks. InterviewCopilot runs on macOS and Windows and offers unlimited use through a monthly or annual subscription.

AgentX

You know exactly who you'd hire. You just can't afford them yet. Hiring takes three months and a salary. This takes an afternoon. AgentX is a workplace for AI agents. A daemon runs on machines you own and puts the CLI coding agents you already subscribe to Claude Code, Codex, and five others - to work as a real team. Each agent gets a persistent identity: its own user account on a real machine, a home directory, an SSH key, a git identity. They message each other, hand over work, and keep going after you go home. One web interface drives the whole fleet, across local and remote machines, and you can open a live terminal and watch any of them work. We never bill you for inference. Your AI subscriptions stay yours — that is the whole pricing model. $20 per month, per person. Start free with 1,000 messages in your first month, no card. We are two people and forty-three agents. That is the whole company.

Buildright

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.

Unge Iværksættere

Unge Iværksættere er Danmarks største frivillige ungdomsorganisation for iværksætteri. I snart fem år har vi arbejdet for én ting: at gøre iværksætteri til en mulig karrierevej for unge, uanset baggrund eller ressourcer. Vi har samlet over 4.000 unge til vores events. Vi har haft nogle af landets mest betydningsfulde iværksættere og erhvervsledere på scenen. Og vi har set deltagere finde deres medstifter, bygge deres første netværk og starte virksomheder, der lever i bedste velgående i dag. Alt vi laver er gratis. Events, podcast, fællesskab — adgang skal aldrig være en barriere. Vi er et team på 15 unge i København og Århus, der driver foreningen frivilligt ved siden af studier, jobs og egne virksomheder. Vi gør det, fordi vi selv har oplevet, hvad det betyder at møde de rigtige mennesker på det rigtige tidspunkt — og fordi vi tror på, at den mulighed skal være der for langt flere. Hos os får man ansvar, når man tager det. Vi forventer ikke, at du kan det hele — vi forventer, at du har lyst til at lære det. Du går herfra dygtigere, end du kom- og vi glæder os til at arbejde med dig!

Horaizon

Horaizon is an AI consulting and product company helping organisations turn the hype around artificial intelligence into measurable business outcomes. The problem we see every day is twofold: • Uncertainty — businesses know AI will change how they operate but don’t know where to start. • Inefficiency — companies waste time and money experimenting with generic tools that don’t address their specific needs. At Horaizon, we bridge that gap by working alongside organisations as if they were our own. We design and implement AI systems that are cost-effective, secure, and directly aligned with their workflows, from reducing customer support costs by 10x to automating time-consuming financial processes. Whether a client comes to us with excitement or hesitation about AI, our role is the same: to provide clarity, trust, and results, helping them adapt and scale in a future where AI is not optional but essential.

Incremental Maritime A/S

Incremental Maritime is developing a digital compliance solution that helps shipowners and operators navigate complex decarbonization regulations; transforming compliance into lower emissions and higher margins. Our deep regulatory expertise, data-driven models, and hands-on client support are what set us apart. Global shipping faces an accelerating tide of climate regulation, from the IMO’s GHG Fuel Intensity targets to FuelEU Maritime and EU ETS. These rules impact everything: fuel costs, asset values, and day-to-day operations. Yet most market players lack the tools and insights to respond; let alone turn compliance into an advantage. This leaves shipowners and operators asking: - What decarbonization investments make financial sense? - How do I reduce risk and avoid penalties? - Can I stay compliant across multiple regimes without extra complexity? - Without smart tools, these questions are hard to answer - and costly to get wrong. Our solution has two core parts: Advisory with immediate impact: We help clients assess regulatory costs, model emissions, evaluate investment cases, and support decision-making from planning to operations. A digital compliance agent (in development): Built on real client work, this tool will combine - Real-time emissions tracking - Cross-jurisdictional compliance logic - Commercial impact analysis - Support from pre-fixture to post-voyage We’re building the go-to compliance engine for modern shipping: one that simplifies decisions, protects margins, and scales with regulation. We launched Incremental Maritime because we saw a blind spot: climate regulation was outpacing the industry’s ability to respond and the result was confusion, cost, and missed opportunity. With experience spanning maritime operations and regulatory systems, we knew we could help. We believe that smarter compliance is not a burden, it’s a pathway to performance. We're here to equip shipping with the tools to decarbonize profitably, one fixture, one voyage, one regulation at a time.

BAIAE

BAIAE is a travel tech startup, inspired by the ancient Roman town known as the birthplace of leisure travel. We help people travel more, travel better, and create unforgettable experiences, through a blend of AI-driven support and premium real-world services. The problem: Travel today is fragmented. Flights are here. Hotels are there. Insurance, claims, and rebooking? Somewhere else. Travelers carry the burden of planning and decision-making while drowning in tabs, choices, and second-guessing. And yes... Agent mode is impressive but raw agents won’t cut it. Travelers need curated experiences, tailored logic, and predefined actions that actually get things done. This is where we plan to win.

BirdsatFive

At BirdsAtFive, we’re building Birdie – a platform that finally fixes the biggest reason most AI tools fail in B2B marketing: bad input. AI can write fast, but if it doesn’t know your brand, your market, your goals, or your customers — it just makes things up. That’s a huge risk for marketing teams trying to move fast and stay on-message. Birdie changes that. We structure all of a company’s GTM knowledge — from strategy decks and sales insights to product positioning and audience research — and use it to power AI tools that create content that’s on-strategy, on-brand, and actually useful. We’re not building generic chatbots. We’re building the execution engine modern B2B teams need to go from idea to campaign — with AI that doesn’t guess, but understands.

GLAZE Technologies

GLAZE Technologies turns raw data into “material intelligence.” Across energy, aerospace, and manufacturing, critical components can fail because decision-makers can’t see what’s happening inside their materials until it’s too late. Today they must choose between expensive lab testing or flying blind on the factory floor. We solve that gap with Carmen, our patented, real-time sensor platform that reveals a material’s composition, defects, and degradation at industrial speed and scale. Powered by breakthrough terahertz technology, Carmen spots micro-cracks in wind-turbine blades before they splinter, verifies satellite parts for the European Space Agency, and will soon help any production line certify quality without stopping the line. Why does it matter? Because better material insight means safer infrastructure, fewer recalls, less waste, and a faster transition to a sustainable, high-performance world. We’ve proven the tech in pilots with global consortia; now we’re scaling the business. and looking for bold minds to join the journey.
