— To adventure beyond horizons, to explore off the beaten path, to take lead. To trust in our significance in this world and our potential to change it. To risk. For the potential of prosperity. For fairness. For the unknown. That is the purpose of Cling. — The entrance of large battery systems is a global waste challenge. Fortunately, the very same challenge is providing a unique window of opportunity to integrate circularity at the very core of our society. Inspired by this, Cling is on a mission to close the loop of lithium-ion batteries - the key technology for sustainable energy. Cling Systems is developing the world's first b2b market platform for spent electric vehicle batteries. We enable circularity by supporting organisations in the end-of-life ecosystem to get the right battery to the right place in order to maximise the environmental and commercial benefits of critical resources.

Teambox is an app for iOS and Android that should make it easier and more fun to keep track of accounts in small communities. We have all played football on teams where there was a fine box. We thought the administration of these fines was to difficult and would like to do something about it. We have developed an app that can be used for the administration of fines. The target groups are sports teams, friend groups, food clubs, school classes etc.

Columbia Road is a digital growth consultancy challenging the old ways of running digital businesses. We exist to increase our clients’ revenue and help them get more customers in the digital era. Our team consists of business consultants who understand business-driven design, tech, strategy and growth. We believe in giving a lot of responsibility and freedom to our employees. There’s a common misunderstanding that happy and satisfied employees are automatically motivated employees. We don’t see things that way. Happy and satisfied employees are an important priority for us, but we think causal relationship is reversed: people are happy and satisfied when they have work that motivates them. For us, an employee’s happiness is the primary goal, not a tool for raising productivity or profitability. We want to empower our employees to become a better version of themselves and to have more of an impact on the world. We see happiness & satisfaction as end goals, not starting points. That being said we love to laugh a lot, play some tunes at the office and grab a few drinks after work. What kind of work is motivating in our context? People yearn for purpose in their work and want it to have meaning that creates value: purpose, for people and organisations, comes from making an impact on the world. Meaning & significance comes from providing value to someone else — in our case, clients. Clients (not us) define the value of our actions, always. Jobs at columbiaroad.com/careers

Archi Systems builds Archi Automate, the AI automation layer for architecture, engineering and construction. It connects Claude, GPT/Codex, Gemini or any MCP-capable AI assistant directly to the tools architects and engineers already use: Revit, Archicad, Rhino and Grasshopper, AutoCAD, SketchUp, Blender, QGIS, Tekla, Vectorworks, IFC/openBIM, Autodesk Forma and Autodesk Construction Cloud. The assistant reads live models, queries elements and parameters, and makes governed changes under a configurable execution mode (read-only, preview, or allow-changes) with every write audited. It validates IFC models against IDS specifications, runs clash detection, quantity take-off and embodied-carbon estimates, and can move entire projects between Autodesk hubs and regions, something Autodesk itself offers no service for. Since version 27.26, Archi Automate also renders AI imagery directly from a model view: a photographic or conceptual visualisation using the practice's own OpenAI, Black Forest Labs, fal.ai or Google account, with masks, multi-turn editing, print upscaling and a full provenance record (model, prompt, seed, cost) for every image. API keys are stored encrypted on the user's machine and are never shown to the AI assistant. One signed Windows installer connects every host application through a single desktop Hub. Architects get an AI assistant grounded in their real project data, not descriptions of it. Founded and built in Oslo, Norway.

Mova Design is a Copenhagen-based studio creating algorithmically generated, 3D-printed vases and candle holders. Each piece is designed using parametric, generative tools, producing organic, sculptural shapes that would be nearly impossible to achieve through traditional manufacturing. We're solving a problem rooted in how home decor is typically made today: mass production. Most decor on the market comes from injection-molded processes that require huge upfront tooling costs, encourage overproduction to justify that investment, and rely heavily on virgin plastics and non-sustainable materials that end up as landfill waste when trends shift or batches go unsold. Our approach flips that model. We 3D print on demand, which means no unsold inventory, no wasted material runs, and no need to produce thousands of identical units just to make the economics work. It also lets us use more sustainable, often biodegradable or recycled filaments, since we're not locked into materials chosen purely for high-volume industrial molding.

1. Short description RoboConnect is developing an independent, AI-supported platform that helps industrial companies turn tacit and fragmented process knowledge into a clear, decision-relevant automation case — before supplier dialogue begins. 2. The problem Many industrial companies know they need to automate, but struggle to define what should be automated, what is causing the problem and whether the process is ready for investment. The people closest to production often understand the process well, but this knowledge may be spread across operators, engineers and management, poorly documented or mixed with assumptions and missing data. The customer may therefore approach the market with an unclear problem description and incomplete information. System integrators then have to reconstruct the customer’s process understanding and collect missing data before a meaningful solution dialogue can begin. This creates uncertainty, longer clarification phases, weak or difficult-to-compare proposals and projects that stall early. The core problem is not a lack of technology or suppliers. It is that the knowledge needed to make a good early automation decision is often tacit, fragmented and difficult to transfer. 3. The solution RoboConnect starts by understanding the customer’s process, challenges and actual needs. The RoboConnect AI Advisor conducts a guided professional conversation that helps the company describe how production works today, what it wants to improve, which constraints matter and what information is still missing. The AI Advisor brings together information from different parts of the organisation, separates facts from assumptions and uncertainty, identifies knowledge gaps and risks, and turns unclear issues into practical next actions. The result is a shared and structured automation basis that can be developed into a supplier-ready project brief. Relevant projects can then be connected with suitable system integrators, technology suppliers and R&D environments. This gives the customer greater decision confidence and solution providers a better starting point. RoboConnect is not building a generic chatbot. The platform combines a domain-specific workflow, structured project data and knowledge from industrial cases, expert interviews and feedback from customers and automation partners. Over time, this strengthens clarification, project maturation and matching. The first focused area is welding automation and high-mix, low-volume manufacturing. The longer-term ambition is to expand across other automation categories and build a Nordic platform for early-stage automation clarification and matching. 4. Business model and commercial opportunity RoboConnect creates value on both sides of the market. Industrial companies receive a clearer and safer starting point, while automation partners gain access to better-qualified customer opportunities. The current model is based mainly on supplier-side revenue through fees for qualified matches and successful projects. Future revenue streams may include paid AI-assisted readiness reports, supplier subscriptions, premium access and category-specific products. The model is now being validated through pilots and early customer projects. Norway is the validation market, with Sweden as the first intended scale-up market. 5. Why I started RoboConnect The motivation came from repeated conversations with industrial companies, automation experts and system integrators. I saw that many projects became uncertain long before technology was selected. Companies needed a more independent and structured way to understand their own situation before entering a supplier-led process. With a background in research, data analysis and complex problem structuring, combined with further training in programming, databases and AI, I founded RoboConnect to bridge the gap between industrial process knowledge and automation delivery.

We are building an early-stage deep-tech startup developing advanced robotics, computer vision and laser-based systems for high-precision detection and response in complex environments. The problem we are addressing is the growing need for faster, more automated and scalable protection systems. Drones and other fast-moving autonomous technologies are becoming increasingly accessible, capable and difficult to manage with traditional methods. This creates new challenges for protecting critical infrastructure, sensitive areas, public spaces and high-value assets. Our solution combines real-time computer vision, mechatronics, precision control and a laser-based system into an automated technology platform. The goal is to detect, track and respond to relevant objects with high accuracy, while reducing the need for manual operation and making the system more scalable than many existing alternatives. We are working on this because we believe there is a strong need for intelligent, cost-effective and technically advanced systems that can help society respond to emerging security and infrastructure challenges. By combining software, hardware and robotics, we aim to build a platform that can create real-world impact in areas where speed, precision and reliability are critical.
