This time, we went too far.

As far as Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Lithuania, The Netherlands (and also Germany). We have been keeping the news to ourselves and we are thrilled to share with our community the ten teams who will take part in our accelerator program for the next six months.

We also went far when it comes to the range of topics the teams are addressing with their tech solutions (you will see it for yourself, below). And talking about diversity: we’ve beaten our own record and have the largest presence of female founders so far. Something we deeply care about.

Wait no longer and meet the teams from our batch 8:
