Reusable packaging worldwide is continuing to increase, but the infrastructure to match this trend is currently lacking. To help change that, Cuploop’s mission is to make the return of reusable packaging as simple and convenient as possible, with the end goal of creating a universal network for reusable packaging.
Cuploop’s focuses on providing reverse vending machines for reusable packaging with light-speed collection and deposit refund. When you buy food/drink in reusable packing, you’ll be able to return it to a conveniently located Cuploop machine and you’ll receive a refund on your deposit. This packaging is then washed and can be reused multiple times. An easy choice to take to make a big difference.

Dynelectro is a talented team of scientists and engineers that are committed to accelerating Power-to-X solutions. Through their strategic partnerships and patented green energy technologies, Dynelectro creates equipment for the Power-to-X market that enables energy developers to produce hydrogen at scale with much higher efficiencies than those used today. Their technology offers a unique method for extending life expectancy of solid oxide electrolysis cells from two years up to ten years.
Dynelectro’s advancements can unlock significant cost savings and enable green hydrogen to compete with natural gas- based alternatives. This allows us to decouple sectors such as transport, fuels and manufacturing from their reliance on fossil fuel extraction.

Our mission is to make it easy and cost-effective to analyze and monitor energy consumption of every building on the planet with scalable machine learning systems and help drive decarbonization of the built environment.
Building energy use causes around 28% of global greenhouse gas emissions and are still rising due to slow and expensive energy optimization processes. Using data and machine learning we can solve many of the inefficient steps in the process, including robust identification, prioritization, collaboration, verification, and monitoring of energy optimization efforts.
We work with many public and commercial building owners and partners. Our building network includes several thousand buildings and our platform monitors terrawatt hours of energy consumption. This has already led to large energy and CO2 savings, but we’re just getting started.

Aarhus-based grums is on a mission to promote a more circular economy and change the perception that spent coffee grounds are waste. In Denmark about 30,000 tonnes of coffee is consumed every year, creating a significant waste stream from spent coffee grounds. When brewing a cup of coffee, less than 1% of coffee’s health-enhancing benefits are leveraged – the rest remains in the spent coffee grounds.
By upcycling spent coffee grounds, grums creates effective skincare ingredients and products that leverage the high content of antioxidants and fatty acids, that have substantial skin and health benefit, while reducing waste streams and without increasing land utilization.

Klimate enables responsible businesses to compensate for unavoidable emissions through portfolios exclusively using carbon removal. Not all methods are the same, with distinct strengths and weaknesses as well as a significant difference in cost.
Uniquely, Klimate combines different methods, allowing companies to tailor their carbon removal investments to their targets and abilities.

LastObject is a Danish startup that provides the world with sustainable alternatives to everyday single-use items. Massive amounts of resources are used to produce single-use products, and in the end, they end up in landfills or nature. LastObject wants to challenge this industry and design and develop substitutes that can be used, washed, and reused, over and over again. LastSwab, the world’s first reusable alternative to cotton swabs, was born and launched on Kickstarter in 2019.
LastObject aims to create products that are 10 times better for the environment, with compostable materials or Ocean Bound Plastic that gives waste a second life. All to make the planet and its people a little happier. The ambition is to eliminate the need for single use-ing. By creating reusable, high-quality, carefully designed products, living a sustainable life becomes easier and more fun.

SemperCycle is on a mission to enable a low carbon, circular economy for plastic waste fractions that cannot be recycled today. More than 260 million tons of plastic waste is generated globally each year, but only around 12% is recycled into new plastic products. Plastic which is unable to be recycled technically or economically can end up being incinerated, which can be a source of additional carbon dioxide emissions.
By converting these non-recyclable plastic waste fractions into a liquid chemical that can be used as a feedstock for new plastic production, SemperCycle aims to divert plastic waste from incineration and thereby reduce carbon dioxide emissions.

Beyond that, the entire product range is based on a circular design framework, meaning that all individual parts can be replaced to prolong the lifespan of the interiors and old features are remanufactured and recirculated.

søuld produces high performing building materials, specifically acoustic mats, that combine high acoustic performance, safety and durability with sustainability and modern aesthetics. The company was founded on a simple idea: to use eelgrass – a ‘forgotten’ sustainable material – and revitalise the 400-year-old eelgrass tradition to create high quality and environmentally responsible products with a significant CO2 storing ability.
By reintroducing high-quality eelgrass into the build environment, søuld introduces an alternative to carbon-intensive materials and demonstrates how circular thinking can be translated into functional solutions with industry leading acoustic performance.
