Hive is a Physical AI company building the intelligence layer for industrial machines — a "silicon brain" that lets excavators, wheel loaders, forklifts and haulers perceive, decide and act as one coordinated system. Rather than requiring new equipment, Hive retrofits the fleet a customer already owns, installed in days, so operators move out of the cab and into a control room while the machine handles the work.

Every deployed machine hour feeds a single reinforcement loop, so capability compounds across every machine and every site. Hive is founded by Christoffer Jørgensvaag, who previously co-founded Red Rock Solutions, building autonomous remote lifting for marine and offshore environments, acquired by Ocean Infinity in 2021.

Parahelp builds AI support agents that resolve customer issues end-to-end — not just answer questions, but take action.

The product is two agents working together. The Customer Agent handles complex issues across email, live chat and Slack, securely using the company's own tools to actually resolve them. The Internal Agent builds, tests and continuously improves the Customer Agent from plain-language instructions, so support teams configure their agent by chatting rather than by filling in decision trees. If a tool has an API, it can be connected. Teams go from connecting their context sources to a live agent within hours.

Parahelp is used by some of the fastest-moving companies in software, including Bolt, Cursor, Replit and Framer, and is SOC 2 Type II audited and GDPR compliant, with no model training on customer data.

Stendr is a Norwegian defence technology company building an AI-native platform for the rapid development and deployment of defence software and hardware.

The nature of warfare has changed. Drones are cheap, autonomous, and everywhere, and defence systems built for a previous era cannot keep pace. Stendr is developing AI-driven multi-sensor technology embedded in cost-efficient hardware platforms — full-stack, vertically integrated, with AI at the core — to find drones, track them, and give defenders the information to act, fully sovereign to Europe. The initial focus is drone defence.

Stendr is founded by Aleksander Leonard Larsen, co-founder of Sky Mavis, which he built to a $3 billion valuation with its Axie Infinity platform. He is joined by Robin Alexander Holm Pedersen (CTO) and Markus Leonhard Hansen (Head of Hardware).

Riff builds AI agents that take on the operational work behind every order — quoting, procurement, planning, logistics — and replan the moment something changes. Rather than drafting suggestions, the agents act on a customer's real data through deterministic, controlled tools inside guardrails the customer's own team defines, so the same input produces the same auditable result every time.

The team comes out of Cognite, Norway's first unicorn, where they ran large-scale industrial digitalisation programmes and have been building autonomous agents since 2023.

Sanna is an accounting firm with the technology built in: complete accounting powered by AI, at a fixed price, quality assured by authorised accountants.

Every company in the world is required by law to keep books, file annual accounts and report taxes. Demand is set by statute rather than by budgets, which makes this one of the largest service industries there is, and it is still priced and delivered by the hour. The work itself is what software could not do before: unstructured documents that have to be read, judged, mapped to the right code and reconciled. Rules-based tools never got there. AI can.

Sanna does not sell software to accountants. Sanna is the accounting firm, which means it captures the full gain from what AI takes off the table. That shows up directly in the price, a fixed fee instead of an hourly rate.

Enode is building the orchestration layer for the next grid — one platform for energy retailers and the teams that trade on their behalf. It connects assets, giving retailers a single integration to the electric vehicles, chargers, batteries, solar inverters and heat pumps their customers already own, and coordinates them to one plan: raising self-consumption, hitting time-of-use rates and shifting load to the cheapest hours.

Homes can then be aggregated into dispatchable flexibility, turning thousands of households into a single tradeable resource. The platform is deliberately composable rather than a finished product, so retailers build only the parts that differentiate them and rely on Enode for the connectivity and control underneath.

Starflow is building a platform that brings solar panels, home batteries, EV chargers and the grid together as one system. At the core is a smart hybrid inverter designed to be the central control unit of the modern home, monitoring, managing and optimising energy use automatically.

Advanced hardware paired with an open software architecture lets the system adapt to each home in real time — lowering energy bills, making storage worthwhile, and pulling everything into one intuitive interface. Easy to install, built to last, and ready for the energy needs of tomorrow.

Starflow is founded by Jonas Helmikstøl, co-founder of Easee, together with Ola Stengel and Nikolai Konopelko.

Space Lab is aiming to become Norway's first orbital launch service provider, developing reusable rockets that give Norway and Europe sovereign access to space. Its rocket, Draken, is designed to launch from the ocean rather than a fixed launch pad — removing the ground infrastructure that constrains where and how often anyone can reach orbit, and drawing on offshore and high-risk operational expertise that already exists in Norway from oil and gas.

Space Lab is founded by Daniel Cau Varming and Jørgen Narmo Hammervold, who have together designed, built and launched four rockets from the Norwegian coast. Their ambition is to turn Norwegian engineering and offshore operational culture into hardware that flies and competes globally.
