BuddyUp Social

BuddyUp Social is a social discovery platform helping adults in Denmark—especially expats and newcomers—find meaningful connections through shared interests and real-life events. We’re solving the problem of adult social isolation by making it easy to create, join, and engage in hobby-based meetups, all through one intuitive app. Making friends as an adult can be surprisingly difficult. Whether you're a Dane moving to a new city or an expat starting fresh in Denmark, it’s common to feel socially disconnected. Many adults don’t know where to start when it comes to meeting new people outside of work, dating apps, or closed social circles. This problem is widespread and well-documented—especially in Denmark, where surveys consistently show that many internationals struggle with social integration, and even locals describe it as awkward to make new friends past a certain age. We’re tackling this head-on by making socializing more accessible, interest-based, and low-pressure. BuddyUp Social is designed to break down the barriers of adult friendship and create opportunities for spontaneous, real-world connection. Whether it’s joining a hike, hosting a board game night, attending a ceramics class, or finding a casual pub quiz crew, BuddyUp is all about connecting people who are "up for it"—with no pressure, no awkward messaging phase, and no algorithms getting in the way. Unlike traditional social platforms focused on digital interaction, BuddyUp is built around real-life meetups. Users can explore and join events happening near them, or create their own. Events can be public or invite-only, recurring or one-off, and are always centered around shared hobbies or interests. The app also welcomes collaborations with local businesses, allowing them to showcase open community events, bringing even more variety and accessibility to users. We’re launching in Denmark first—starting with Copenhagen and Aarhus—before expanding to similar cities across Europe. The idea behind BuddyUp was born from personal experience. As someone who returned to Denmark after years abroad, and with friends struggling to meet people after relocating, it became clear how socially challenging adulthood can be. We kept hearing the same story: “I’d love to meet new people, but I just don’t know how or where.” Instead of settling for outdated forums, clunky Facebook groups, or apps not designed for platonic connection, we decided to build a better solution ourselves. BuddyUp is more than an app—it’s a movement to make adult friendship and community-building normal, easy, and enjoyable again. We’re passionate about creating a product that helps people feel less alone and more empowered to take the first step toward new friendships. We believe that real-life connections are essential for personal happiness and social wellbeing—and we’re here to make those moments happen.

Enabler bolån

Enabler är ett bolåneinstitut med tillstånd från Finansinspektionen med rötterna från KTH i Stockholm. Vi jobbar för FNs globala om socialt ansvarstagande och finansiellt inkluderande. Vi fokuserar på att hjälpa unga vuxna in på bostadsmarknaden. Enabler har utvecklat ett anpassat framåtblickande kreditregelverk som fokuserar på anställningsbarhet och potential istället för historisk lön (som traditionella banker) och kan därför låna ut lite mer och med lägre egen kontantinsats. Skillnaden blir att en ung vuxen kan köpa en etta i Stockholms innerstad med en lön om 27,500kr/mån och utan krav på kontantinsats till skillnad från en traditionell bank där kravet blir närmare 42,000kr/mån och en egen insats på över 400,000kr vilket nästan ingen ung vuxen har hunnit spara ihop själv. Med 30-års kö på ett förstahandskontrakt och en andrahandshyra på i genomsnitt 17,000kr/mån är vår lösning flera gånger billigare än andra alternativ. Vill du vara med och göra skillnad och kanske själv ta dig in på bostadsmarknaden? Vi väljer noggrant ut en handfull utav landets största change makers som vi ödmjukt och gärna önskar ha med på resan. Om du tror att det kan vara rätt match så hörs vi gärna på ett 30 min möte! 🏠 🏦 🚀

Divly

Divly is a cryptocurrency tax calculator built for the Nordics. There are an incredible number of cryptocurrency exchanges and transaction possibilities. Without a tool such as Divly, calculating your cryptocurrency taxes can be incredibly daunting. We experienced this struggle firsthand when we wanted to declare our cryptocurrency transactions to the Swedish tax authorities. Hence Divly flew into existence. The focus of our team has been to be the best cryptocurrency tax calculator for the countries we support. As opposed to the one-size-fits-all approach of most cryptocurrency tax calculators, Divly's tax reports are built around local tax regulations, allowing us to provide more comprehensive help to our users. Providing a hyper-localized service continues beyond providing tax reports suitable for local declarations. We also focus heavily on building features that complement your country's unique tax system. For Sweden, for example, we've built an optimizer tool that demonstrates which transactions you can make to lower your taxes. And for Finland, we help you with the deemed acquisition cost rule, which allows taxpayers to reduce their taxable profits when their cryptocurrency prices skyrocket. Join us as we continue to fight against complacency and build the best cryptocurrency tax calculator with your needs in mind.
