Fischer Lighting is a sustainable front-runner who has developed a unique circular business model where waste is transformed into new beautiful lamps that make buildings more sustainable and people healthier. In 2023, Fischer Lighting saved more than 53 tons of discarded lamps from being thrown away, and with the concepts ReUse, ReDesign, and ReCreate, unique lighting solutions are created in a beautiful and industrial design that meets all the requirements of a new lighting fixture. In addition to environmental sustainability, social sustainability is also an important part of the concept. Therefore, all the old lamps are separated and assembled by people on the edge of the labor market in Denmark. At the same time, the lamps are equipped with the latest technology, which, among other things, enables circadian lighting, which can stimulate the production of hormones in our body and create better well-being for people in buildings.

At Norlix, we are building a digital insurance and pension brokerage from the ground up. The industry is still defined by manual workflows, legacy systems, and advisory services that only happen periodically. That creates friction and means coverage and risk often lag behind how companies actually evolve. We are building a different model. By combining integrations, structured data, and continuous analysis, we make advisory proactive instead of reactive. In practice, we focus on: • Automated and continuous data collection • Ongoing assessment of risk and coverage • Systematic monitoring of the market • Data driven optimization instead of periodic reviews Our ambition is simple: To make insurance and pension advisory more precise, more transparent, and far less dependent on manual processes. We have raised 30 mio. DKK at the start of 2026, grown to 25+ people, and are building fast with a strong team that genuinely enjoys working together. We are still early, but that is exactly the point. What we build now will define how insurance and pension should work going forward.

Edgy Systems AB – Making Energy Systems Work Together Overview Edgy Systems AB is building a hardware-agnostic monitoring and management platform for distributed energy assets such as solar panels, batteries, heat pumps, and HVAC systems. The platform provides a unified interface that allows installers, service companies, and multi-tenant building owners to monitor, analyze, and optimize the performance of their installations, regardless of manufacturer or protocol. By integrating all assets into a single ecosystem, Edgy Systems helps installers save valuable technician hours each week, prevents asset downtime, and builds trust with customers through transparency and actionable insights. The Problem The transition to electrified and distributed energy systems is accelerating, but the digital management layer has not kept pace. Today, both installers and property owners face major inefficiencies: For Installers: - They must use multiple OEM portals to monitor the assets they install, one for heat pumps, another for solar panels, batteries, EV chargers, and so on. Switching between these platforms wastes several technician hours every week and complicates workflow management. - Lack of central alerts: Installers often fail to notice when a system is underperforming or has an active alarm because there is no unified feedback mechanism. - Scaling limitations: The installation business is inherently resource-intensive. Growth depends on the speed and efficiency of teams, which are limited by manual coordination and fragmented digital tools. - Customer dissatisfaction: Since installers cannot easily share transparent performance data, their customers (typically tenant-owners’ associations or small industries ) may lose trust or perceive the investment as opaque. For Tenant-owners’ Associations and Industrial Users: - They often lack visibility into performance metrics of their solar, HVAC, or storage systems. Reports, when available, arrive monthly or yearly. - There is rarely a clear cost-benefit analysis that shows whether their energy investment delivers expected savings. - They want to optimize energy use and manage assets efficiently but struggle to find service providers capable of analyzing heterogeneous setups. - Tenants or residents don’t see real-time results, which reduces engagement and the perceived value of sustainability initiatives. The Solution - Edgy Systems offers an open, AI-assisted platform that connects all energy assets into a single dashboard. - Unified monitoring: A single pane of glass for all assets, independent of vendor or protocol. - Automated alarms and reports: Intelligent notifications ensure no downtime goes unnoticed. - AI-powered integration: Machine learning helps create and validate data connectors faster, reducing the engineering effort required to add new device types. - Transparency for customers: Real-time dashboards and cost-performance analytics increase trust and demonstrate tangible results. - Scalability for installers: By centralizing monitoring and automating reporting, installers can manage more installations with fewer resources. Why It Matters The energy industry is becoming decentralized, but the tools used to manage installations remain siloed and inefficient. Installers lose time and revenue potential, while customers cannot verify the value of their investment. Edgy Systems bridges this gap by providing the digital backbone for the modern energy ecosystem. It enables: - Faster, data-driven maintenance and installation scaling. - Lower operational costs through automation. - Smarter decisions for property owners based on transparent performance data. - A foundation for AI-driven energy optimization and predictive maintenance.
