SoGreen sigter mod at introducere en ny type tredjepartsverificerede carbon credits til det voksende internationale kulstofmarked. I partnerskab med førende civilsamfundsorganisationer i lavindkomstlande planlægger vi at etablere CO2-kreditter, der sikrer pigers ungdomsuddannelse. Vi er meget taknemmelige for Innovationsfondens støtte, og vi er overbeviste om, at det vil være med til at accelerere overgangen af denne vigtige og innovative idé til en økonomisk bæredygtig virksomhed. I dag er 129 millioner piger ude af skole globalt. Uddannelse er en kraftfuld klimaløsning, der øger modstandskraften hos sårbare samfund på frontlinjen af klimakrisen. Vores vision er en verden, hvor alle piger udlever deres ret til uddannelse, og hvor klimaretfærdighed er placeret i hjertet af al klimaindsats.

Our project tackles loneliness, a significant yet often overlooked factor in individual and population health. Loneliness raises the risk of premature death by 26%, equal to smoking 15 cigarettes daily. Globally, 1/3 of the population experience loneliness, with a 58% increase in Denmark since 2013. Young adult men are particularly vulnerable, with 38% avoiding emotional discussions due to fear of judgment and 29% unlikely to seek help when struggling. Our AI coach offers a personal, interactive experience for men to talk about their emotions without the fear of being judged. Our aim is to support self-reflection and the ability to open up, thereby strengthening everyday relationships. Our solution differentiates from other chatbots by using video interaction and emotion recognition technology with up to 80% accuracy. By analyzing facial expressions, eye contact, and tone of voice, our aim is to develop an AI coach with heightened sensitivity and an understanding of underlying emotions that users may be unaware of or struggle to express. We are placing ourselves in a new technology category that seeks to enhance human connections through AI coaching. Our aim is to reach 5 million users in the US by 2030 with a B2C paying solution—pursuing B2B2C partnerships as we mature. The InnoFounder grant will support the launch of our first available solution in app stores and our goal of reaching our first 1,000 active users during the program.

Soilex: Fertilizer granules leveraging novel viscoelasticity for programmable nutrient release. Soilex develops innovative, single-material fertilizer granules with programmable release rates, achieved through viscoelastic control of water-soluble polymers. Unlike traditional coated fertilizers, our solution eliminates the coating step—reducing production costs by up to 50\%—while improving impact resilience, dispersion efficiency, and nutrient use. This simplifies manufacturing and enables precise nutrient delivery based on soil and crop needs, reducing leaching, runoff, and environmental damage. Soilex granules are compatible with existing application equipment, requiring no extra investment from farmers. Our approach supports sustainable agriculture and aligns with EU Green Deal objectives. Backed by validated scientific methods, prior industrial experience, and the innofounder grant, our team aims to finalize 25 granule compositions, conduct greenhouse and in-vitro tests, and engage with scaling partners (e.g., Yara). The goal is to enter full-scale production by 2029, delivering a commercially viable, climate-smart fertilizer alternative.
