Using AI-driven automation, it provides real-time updates on real estate, sports, and weather, enabling newsrooms to deliver timely local coverage. By freeing journalists for in-depth reporting and enhancing reader engagement, United Robots optimizes editorial workflows and boosts revenue for publishers.
Since its founding in 2016, United Robots has grown steadily, expanding across the Nordics, Benelux, the UK, the US, and Canada, with the US as its fastest-growing market. In 2021, Spiltan Invest became a strategic investor, reinforcing its industry position.

The ideal candidate should have experience in finance and sales, along with a strong background in media and digital media. Expertise in AI, machine learning, and SaaS is also highly desirable.
Interlinked
Interlinked is a Swedish MedTech company founded in 2016, specializing in innovative medical device solutions. Their flagship product, ReLink, is a patented breakaway connector designed to prevent dislodgement of intravenous (IV) and nephrostomy drainage catheters. By enhancing patient safety, reducing nurse workload, and lowering hospital costs, ReLink offers a unique and scalable solution in the healthcare industry.
Interlinked has demonstrated strong traction, with clinical studies showing a 73% reduction in IV dislodgements and CE marking secured for IV therapy and drainage. Over 2,000 devices have been used across six countries, and the company has signed a €3M distribution deal in Italy. Early sales include hospital orders from Ireland and Sweden, with FDA clearance for IV therapy expected in 2025. With a global market of 16B IV lines and expansion into veterinary care, Interlinked is well-positioned for growth.
Interlinked is raising €1.8M at a €8.8M pre-money valuation, with €1.62M secured and €180K available for CVX investment. Funds will support operations, manufacturing, and commercial growth. With €850K in cash and a €110K/month burn rate, Interlinked has a runway until November 2025 and aims to break even by Q1 2027. Acquisition interest from BD, Whitebridge, and ICU Med suggests a strong exit potential once 100K+ units are sold.
DrainDane
DrainDane, a Danish company, specializes in sustainable drainage solutions that prevent water damage in precast concrete elements. With a patent-pending innovation, DrainDane enhances efficiency by reducing claims, minimizing rehousing costs, and streamlining workflows. As the first fully designed solution for this widespread issue, DrainDane not only allows tenants to remain in their homes during drainage but also provides digitalized, real-time data access for installers and management. This ensures that critical insights are available when needed, rather than relying on delayed manual reporting.
DrainDane has built strong traction in Denmark, with over 200 B2B customers actively using and repurchasing the product at DKK 590 + VAT per unit (costing DKK 130 per unit). Growth has been primarily driven by referrals, achieved without a dedicated sales team and with minimal marketing efforts. Recognizing this potential, the founder has decided to further invest in the Danish market. The development has been entirely self-funded, and the founder is now committing full-time to the company after divesting his property service business. As part of this transition, a new company with 100% ownership was established in August 2024, holding all rights to the DrainDane solution. – Expected Revenue this Year: DKK 400k – Revenue last Year: Pre-revenue
The ideal candidate should have experience in go-to-market planning, sales strategy development, market entry, and channel strategy, along with a strong background in international expansion.

Sonisto is a Danish music tech company offering a marketplace for audio production software. It provides a built-in management tool for audio plugins, enhancing workflow efficiency. The platform allows users to source, manage, and subscribe to high-quality plugins. A desktop app, Sonisto Access Manager, was launched in 2024. The company operates in both B2B and B2C segments, targeting music creators and plugin vendors.
Sonisto generates revenue from plugin sales and a Pro subscription model (€9.99/month). The platform has 500 paying customers and 50 Pro subscribers with minimal marketing. There are 9,000 free users, presenting a strong conversion potential. Reseller relationships with audio plugin vendors continue to grow. Expansion strategies include targeted marketing and AI-driven user recommendations.
Sonisto is raising a €200,000 bridge round at a pre-money valuation of €2.5 million, with €70,000 already committed by existing investors. The founders hold 66% equity, the board 4%, and private investors 30%. CVX has allocated €150,000 for this round, with a minimum investment ticket of €15,000. The company has a €25,000 monthly burn rate and €15,000 in cash reserves, targeting EBITDA profitability within 18 months and a runway extending to Q1 2026 if fully funded.

Launched in Sweden in 2021, its lineup includes frozen, grain-free, and protein-rich pizzas, pizza crusts, and tortilla wraps, available in both retail and foodservice.

With a distinct product offering, For Real Foods is positioning itself to establish and lead this emerging market as demand for healthier convenience food options continues to rise.
In 2024, For Real Foods’ revenue grew 44% to €300K, driven by new product launches and expansion into Finland. Now in 250+ retail stores, cafés, and restaurants, they project €400K in revenue this year. The company has raised €1M for growth and earned top industry recognition, including Fast Food of the Year and finalist spots for Entrepreneur of the Year and the Impact Maker Award.
