Workability

Workability is a web-based enterprise application empowering leaders to take responsibility for employees workplace welfare and employee follow-up, and allowing employees to be at work as much as their health allows. Sick-leave and workplace welfare is a problem escalating globally. As mental illness and complex health problems rise, new workplace challenges are created. Employers need new tools and practices to help deal with this adequately. Norway has the highest sick leave in the OECD, costing the state and employers over 50 billion kroner each year. 70% of sick leave is avoidable (NAV) and could be prevented through better employee follow-up and workplace facilitation. By solving structural barriers that exist today we help employers co-ordinate efforts with doctors, NAV and other stakeholders to keep people at work and prevent unnecessary sick-leave. Our tools help leaders follow-up their teams, create an open dialogue and an inclusive approach to workplace welfare and how they organise work, key factors in preventing sickness and workplace absence.

Andning Med

At Andning Med we develop smart intuitive inhalers that help patients inhale their medication correctly and deliver the optimal dose of medication into the lungs. Breathe with us! Every fifth person suffers from respiratory diseases like Asthma or COPD. Patients use an inhaler, but 90% make mistakes during the inhalation, leading to complications and breathless attacks. This represents a large market opportunity with millions of patients that we - a team of a medical doctor, a product designer and a business developer want to target. What we have accomplished 1 - We have a prototype - a fully functional add-on device that can be attached to the inhaler. It is ready to be tested in larger patient studies. 2 - We have tested and verified our solutions with 20 patients and 40 naïve users. 3 - We have spent 2 months of daily observing nurses, doctors and patients in the primary care centers. 4 - We secured 1 MSEK funding from Vinnova, Solna Stad, EIT Health and KTH and we are set to accelerate with larger investment and EU funding. 5 - We have developed the product and business in the KTH Innovation pre-incubator program. The journey ahead Our next step is developing the final prototype to be tested in a pilot patient study and prepare for manufacturing. We now accelerate our efforts towards finalizing the size, shape and usability as well as collecting measurements and handling data using our software. With the finalized product we will run clinical investigations to obtain a CE-mark. We plan to launch the product on the market in 2023. About us Andning Med was formed based on a clear need observed during clinical immersion. During the Clinical Innovation Fellowship program supported by KTH, KI, RISE and EIT Health the team got an unprecedented insight into healthcare challenges connected with COPD and respiratory diseases. Here the idea for a smart inhalation device was born. Our product is an add-on hardware device that measures the inhalation technique, giving live visual feedback every time. Our software collects data and enables tracking over time to motivate patients, involve family and inform doctors. Andning Med is currently supported by KTH Innovation and is exiting a batch in the KTH Innovation Pre-incubator program. The KTH Innovation pre-incubator program is a 12 month program to accelerate the development of promising startup projects from KTH Royal Institute of Technology. Startup projects receive extensive support from inhouse Business Development Coaches as well as additional support such as office space, community activities, access to industry, mentor and investor networks.

We envision a future where buying and selling used books is not only as common as buying new, but actually the preferred choice.

The current methods for selling used books, however, are overly complex for many. At Bookalista, we're redefining the buying and selling process of used books, making it as easy as shopping on any other online store. Our platform eliminates the need for improvised buying systems, arranging meeting places and times, or dealing with the dilemma of "who sends/pays first." We handle all transactions, ensuring sellers receive their payment promptly once the book is in the hands of its new reader. Listing a book for sale on Bookalista is a snap, taking just 10 seconds. We, the Bookalista team, are driven by our love for books and our faith in the power of technology to enhance reading. Our aim is to ensure that captivating books are readily available to those keen to delve deeper and learn more.

Visbok

It all started when I started my own limited company for the first time, I had a great interest in accounting but no knowledge. I started with an accounting course and tested most accounting services on the market and felt that it should be possible to make it both easier and smoother for self-employed people which was the start of Visbok. It has been a very fun and educational journey for me, with 18 hours working days for over 2 years. I did everything myself from requirement, architecture, development, testing, deployment, SEO to marketing in the beginning and started a team of accountants, developers and entrepreneurs with the vision to make accounting easy and efficient for small business owners. Today, the system is managed by the team and I help with the architecture, project management as well as sales. The program is widely used today and has customers from small startups to senior accountants. We are receiving amazing feedback from all of them.
