ColouReef

We are a new social startup named ColouReef and we are going to rethink and innovate the fashion industry. As you probably know, the fast fashion industry has a more negative impact on our environment and society than it does good. Being one of the most polluting ones, the industry emits more CO2 into the atmosphere than international flights and maritime shipping combined. Moreover, it is a water-consuming giant that is responsible for 20% of all industrial water pollution worldwide. Additionally, fast-fashion companies that produce garments in the global south, are profiting by exploiting local labour and nature. Fast fashion is the problem. Ever changing trends, consumerism and the fear of being left out, affects people psychologically, as fashion collections’ frequency jumped from 2 to 4 per year in 2000 to 12, 16 and sometimes 24 different collections per year in 2019. As a result, in 2014 to compare with 2000, on average people bought 60% more clothes and kept them just half as long. Consequently, this behaviour created another major problem of the industry – waste. Around 85% of the textile ends up in landfills or being burned, while barely 15% are recycled. In 2017 – 16.9 million tons of textile was produced, and only 2,6 million tons were recycled. The problem is, that many consumers in the global North are being held as hostages by the fast fashion trends, without many, if any, sustainable alternatives. This is our solution to the problems above: • To create a fashion rental service based on a circular economy, that allows customers to own different garments by paying a monthly subscription. In this way we will be able to reduce the impact of the fast fashion while allowing people an opportunity to change their outfit and style more often. • We will offer clothes ONLY from sustainable companies, which care about our planet and everyone living on it. Meaning that clothes will need to be produced sustainably and ecologically and/or contain recycled fabrics, as well as not to exploit labour within their supply chain. • Damaged and worn out clothes will be returned back to the clothing brand to upcycle or will be recycled and/or upcycled locally by ColouReef. This way we will fight together the problem of enormous waste caused by the industry. • We will change the habits of the consumers, by providing an alternative to own and wear sustainable clothing for a period of time instead of owning cheap and vastly produced fashion garments. At the same time, we will educate our customers about the damages that the textile industry is doing to our environment. • As the name of our company implies, we want to help to protect coral reefs that are on the verge of extinction. Coral reefs are a vital part of the whole underwater ecosystem. Warming ocean and ocean acidification are two of the main reasons why corals are bleaching and dying around the world. Besides our effort to transform the fashion industry into a more sustainable version of it, we will also support selected NGOs that are fighting against coral extinction. We are looking for people thinking in the same way, seeing the problems and wanting to solve them by disrupting the fashion industry.

Healper

Healper a game-changing booking platform that matches people with mental health issues such as depression, anxiety, and addiction with the psychologist who fits their needs. Problem: The cumbersome booking of the wrong psychologist In Denmark, mental disorders account for 25% of the disease burden and cost society 55 billion DKK annually with more than 2,000 people receiving therapy from a psychologist every day. Further, too many individuals do not receive timely help as they cannot cope with the draining 5-hour process it takes to find and book a psychologist. At the same time, U.S. experience shows that only 20-40% of people find a psychologist they trust and have ´chemistry´ with. This is tragic, as just one bad experience can cause a client to completely drop out of or postpone his/her therapy. The ineffective booking process and the risk of a poor patient-therapist match mean that many people continue to struggle with mental illness who could otherwise be treated. This has major consequences for individuals whose mental illness markedly impairs their quality of life, but also largely affect their family and friends. Furthermore, this is a major problem for society, which is negatively impacted by lost labor and growth and must shoulder the high costs associated with mental illness. Solution: A simple approach to booking the right psychologist Healper is a friendly guide and a booking platform that matches clients with psychologists. We have designed a comfortable, simple, and transparent user journey, that takes the client by the hand and helps him/her through therapy to mental health. Clients fill out a short questionnaire and are then matched with the best results from our database of more than 1,700 psychologists. Here, we find the psychologist who can statistically give the best treatment. Clients are presented with a prioritized list of three psychologists along with the reasons for the match. From this list, clients can choose which psychologist they like best, book a session, and pay. The platform continuously facilitates feedback from clients and their psychologists to improve the processing and precision of the matches.
