Transparently NorwegianWe carefully select guaranteed Norwegian products, ship them via our own "digital highway of trust" to ourselves (in China) and sell them directly to end-users in the world (starting with China) through our own e-Commerce platform (and soon in our own retail stores). We are in business, we control the whole value chain, we do it differently and our concept can't be copied by big American tech or food companies. We also represent business opportunities for other companies.  Xuechun Zhang. Educated in economics and finance, 13 years’ employment at China Construction Bank.

Swapfiets started in the classic start-up way. A group of friends having a good idea and deciding to just try it out: For a fixed price a month you get a Swapfiets bicycle and we ensure your Swapfiets bicycle always works. It turned out to be a great concept. After a period of fixing up bikes ourselves, Swapfiets has now arrived at a point where it has designed its own bicycle and started spreading out the service to a growing number of cities. An epic service, made easy.

Fra fiber til ferdig vare.VARP & VEFT er en moderne ullvarebedrift tuftet på tradisjonsrikt håndverk og nøye utvalgte materialer. Vi kjøper råull fra dyktige sauebønder og jobber tett på råvaren fra valg av fiber til ferdig produkt.Norge har 12 nasjonale saueraser, 6 av dem er truet og flere regnes som sårbare. Mangfoldet disse rasene utgjør gir seg utslag i ulike ullkvaliteter. Dette er et mangfold som hittil har vært lite utnyttet. Industrien krever ensartet og hvit ull i store kvanta, mens gamle raser gjerne har todelt fell med bunnull og dekkhår i ulike lengder og i naturlige fargenyanser. Tilgangen på ull fra bevaringsverdige saueraser er begrenset. VARP & VEFT er en norsk tekstilbedrift, etablert i 2013. Vi tilvirker ulltekstiler basert på spesialplukket ull fra gamle norske og bevaringsverdige saueraser. Tekstilene designes og tilvirkes i Norge ved bruk av tradisjonelt håndverk og moderne produksjonsteknikker under merkevarenavnet Norway Cloth™. Vår første kolleksjon, denne basert på Grå Trøndersau, lanseres på utstillingen 100% Norway under London Design Festival 19-27 september 2015.Som første naturfiber i verden er norsk ull er miljøsertifisert med Svanemerket og er dermed dokumentert en av verdens mest miljøvennlige tekstilfibre. Dette er en "cradle to cradle" sertifisering som setter norsk ull i særstilling internasjonalt, i tillegg til egenskaper som overlegen glans, spenst og slitestyrke. Ullfiberen isolerer og genererer varme når den blir våt. Den er antibakteriell, vann- og flekkavvisende, regulerer luftfuktigheten og bidrar til et sunt inneklima. I motsetning til bomull og syntetfibre er ull naturlig flammehemmende uten tilsetning av kjemikalier.Det er stor samfunnsøkonomisk verdi i å bevare våre gamle raser sett ift mangfold i landbruket og styrking av norsk tekstilindustri. Per i dag blir mye god ull hevet sammen med den dårlige og oppnår derfor lave priser når den så selges på det globale råvaremarkedet.

FoodFarm is an integrated platform that allows companies to arrange food for their employees, and have it brought to their offices daily. It is an alternative to the traditional canteen. It offers users a selection of kitchens and food types to choose from ordered via the app. Companies can choose from a range of kitchens , change them when desired and individual employees can also unsubscribe. All these actions are automated, which translates to: high speed and efficiency. Food Farm is so much more than just ordering your lunch. What we offer is the world's first co-created food platform.In essence, this means that we strive to deliver food in the most efficient way possible by engaging with each user in our value chain. When we started, we wanted to make ordering food cheaper but in our efforts to do so, we realized we had started building a new system for food services. Our vision is to connect every aspect of the value chain from the person producing the food to the person growing it to the final consumer. In doing so and with better communication between these different actors, we hope to reduce food waste not just within Norway, but also on a global level. Our business model is very lean and we don't need a lot of resources to enter other markets and we know that that is where we would like to be to contribute towards addressing the larger issue of food waste.

Frank Founders is built for one thing: creating pipeline and growth for B2B SaaS companies through digital marketing. We work with ambitious SaaS teams and take ownership of the strategy and execution needed to drive real revenue. We’re part of the Frank Agency Collective - a group of small, specialized agencies that each operate in a narrow segment and focus on measurable outcomes in their domain. The goal is simple: be the obvious choice for a very specific type of client, and irrelevant to everyone else. Frank Founders is a micro-agency with 100% focus on B2B SaaS. That means you work close to the business: you lead strategy, drive execution, and stay close to the numbers. We expect people to take charge, make decisions, and treat client challenges as their own - and in return, we offer a high degree of freedom, trust, and ownership. Our culture is shaped by three principles: 01 Same side of the table - We work with clients as one team, with shared goals and clear accountability. 02 One size fits nobody - We use proven methods, but always tailor them to the company’s stage, priorities, and commercial reality. 03 Process drives progress - We rely on clear structures, frameworks, and testing to turn complexity into momentum and measurable growth. Day to day, that means a lot of sparring, open feedback (“frankly speaking” is part of how we work), and a strong focus on craft. We share knowledge, clients, and responsibilities across the team and are based in Talent Garden on Holmen in Copenhagen, surrounded by other startups and scaleups.
