A multi-layered business modelling tool for SME’s, Start-ups & New Ventures.
The business world is missing an important tool. Many other disciplines such as product design, architecture, system design, etc. have the benefit of 3-dimensional modelling, but business design currently does not. The team's product combines four interconnected views: The business model view, growth & capacity view, process view, and financial view. This results in a multidimensional visual model of the business that can be twisted and turned like a Rubik’s cube and analysed from multiple angles. In addition, the team is building a SaaS service around the tool which creates a powerful data collecting platform. The data can then be analysed and used for multiple purposes such as a giving benchmark information and design suggestions back to the user, thereby making the business modelling process feel like there was an expert with all the answers sitting next to the user. "You come with a good idea, and you leave with a great business design."

Enreport is building software solutions to decrease energy consumption and CO2 emissions for commercial and industrial companies. It focuses on predictable consumption and prices, digital twin and predictive analytics, and energy demand and supply optimisation. Enreport's aim is to make the energy transition process easier by gamifying the process. Enreport hears a common complaint: "why is it energy transition so complicated, and why should I spend any of my time on energy transition instead of my core business?". That's why Enreport proposes the use of a production process designer and a "phygital" (physical+digital) model of equipment works. Enreport's smart engine learns and looks for patterns in energy consumptions and equipment modes, resulting in an easy to use recommendation system that looks like a combination of Lego and SimCity, which finds the best ways to work and generates tips for selecting equipment and how much load to put on it.
Enreport was part of the Compass 1 Pre-incubator programme.

Origami seeks to introduce "TinyML" and "TinyML as-a-Service", running ML inferences on microcontrollers in IoT sensors, which won't rely on networks and the Cloud unnecessarily. This would enable new secure and energy efficient use cases of ML applications (e.g., military, healthcare, and maritime scenarios). Origami aims to solve the problem that current Machine Learning (ML) systems face, which is always run-on big Cloud GPUs that rely heavily on networks (latency, throughput, and reliability). This network dependency sometimes restricts potential ML use cases. Furthermore, moving sensor data from on-premises to the cloud isn't always ensured securely.

Silva-trace develops an app and a user customer interface platform for tracking wood origin. They aim to start the concept / customer interface using blockchain technology to trace the wood along the whole supply chain, therefore bringing added value to the consumer who is willing to pay a premium to get this type of data. The current wood supply and processing practices in the Finnish forest industry do not support the transparency of the tree origin to the end-user of the wood product (consumer). Silva-Trace considers that certain consumer groups are willing to pay a premium for pro-environmental (sustainable) origin data of these trees / wood and this could be authentically presented as being an exclusive service.

With unconscious cognitive biases, bounded rationality, and intention-action gaps, people and their choices are often irrational, which can often lead to societally detrimental outcomes. However, research shows that when behavioural science is introduced into the mix, certain small changes can be made to help address these irrationalities. For example, including information about how our neighbours consume less energy than us in our electricity bills has been shown to lead to reduced consumption. Similarly, by changing the organ donation system from an opt-in system to an opt-out system leads to drastically higher rates of organ donators. Globally, many governments and organisations have their own behavioural research units or employ independent consultancies to help them shape their policies to be more beneficial. Yet currently, no such consultancy exists in Finland. The team wants to address this market gap by founding their own firm and help create more behaviourally informed policies which help create a better society.

To fully deliver on their promise of doing good in their communities, socially engaged initiatives like NGO’s, cultural institutions, associations, and others need to be able to stand out and connect & communicate with the world. Yet many of these amazing organisations lack the tools and ability to do so and are underserved by existing service providers who do not understand their specialised needs & ideals. The results they deliver are bland and conventional, maintaining the disconnect instead of addressing it. Super Eclectic believes that diversity and creativity is the key to connection-making. By using multimedia, including digital design, podcasts, films, and experiences, they find connections among different disciplines to help build bridges between ideas and people. Through the new perspectives Super Eclectic brings, the activities of their clients find the world, creating bridges between different areas of knowledge & society and bring about new perspectives to build a better future.

Mental health problems are on the rise, and nearly half of the world’s population has, at one time or another, suffered from anxiety and/or depression. Luckily, Millennials and Gen Z are being more proactive in addressing these issues, yet still, from the first signs of an issue to the end of the healing process, an average of 11 years may pass. This is partly due to the early phases of the healing process being messy and confusing. Plenty of free resources exist to support those in the first stages of recognising they’ve got a problem and finding help, but they are often difficult to find and remain both underutilised and undermarketed. My Inner Monologue wants to address this by offering an online platform to give fast access to these free specialised emotional support resources and help people reduce the time it takes to initiate their healing process.

As power grids transition away from classic fossil fuel-based power plants towards renewable sources of energy like solar and wind, a new element of instability is added into the equation: at any given time, the power grid may be producing too much or too little with regards to consumption. If the balance between supply and demand is not addressed every second, the grid may collapse. Exaum is working on a power demand response which can bring stability to a transitioning power grid.

When making coffee, only 0.2% of the ground beans are used in the extraction of coffee, with the rest being discarded as waste. Yet these grounds are high in calories, free from impurities, and have a unique flavour, making them a great material for upcycling in a number of ways. Coffee Ground hopes to create a coffee recycling platform where people of all ages can take their dried coffee grounds with them and, for a fee, learn with experts how they could be turned into air fresheners, scrubs, compost, and more. The goal is to create a community around coffee recycling where those taking part connect with each other, share information on new ways of recycling coffee to educate and inspire people of all ages to think about recycling as a fun and joyful activity.
