Project
Ignited by our ACT4 project, our team has created an easy-to-use tool for measuring carbon footprint that enables individuals to accurately determine their environmental impact. With verified data as our foundation, we have developed a measurement system that empowers individuals to be aware of their lifestyle choices and how to reduce their carbon footprint.
​
We are in the process of creating a carbon calculator specifically designed for corporates.
Objectives
-
Increase awareness of the footprint attached to our daily activities.
-
Enable pathways to support carbon-mitigating projects.
-
Reduce atmospheric carbon emissions.

Project
Through collaboration with leading project developers and on-ground organizations, we sell climate compensation certificates, also known as climate credits, which are based on verified measures that either reduce or eliminate atmospheric greenhouse gas emissions.
Objectives
-
Launch a platform that connects and offers greenhousegas-mitigating initiatives
-
Build and offer a carbon calculator designed for companies and individuals
-
Provide verified, certified, and traceable climate credits
-
Contribute to the conservation of key ecosystems, and reduce atmospheric carbon emissions.

-
Contribute to ocean- and coastal cleanup
-
Improve marine life habitats
-
Increase awareness of plastification and ocean pollution.
Project
We are creating a virtual reality (VR) ecosystem that enables a “play for impact” model, connecting and correlating activities from VR, with the physical world. Our objective is to create a platform from which we can share knowledge and increase impact through gaming.
Objectives
-
Connect impact activities from VR to the physical world
-
Develop a VR platform
-
Teach and share knowledge through games and entertainment
-
Create a VR carbon calculator

Project
Firsthand knowledge, know-how, and insights from our field of work give us the ability to share and “teach from experience” which we believe is key in order to spark interest in the ordeals of entrepreneurship. The project was an opportunity to enlighten young, bright, and curious minds looking to learn more about the concepts of a circular economy.
Objectives
-
Mitigating the gap between school and entrepreneurship
-
Teach and promote a circular economy
-
Teach and promote entrepreneurship.

In close collaboration with partners across industries, we sought to increase recycling and upcycling rates in the construction sector. Nordic Waves explored and mapped industrial waste streams with low risks and ideal use for recycling and upcycling within the framework of the construction sector's market requirements
Objectives
-
Mitigate industrial conservatism and lower GHG emissions
-
Increase recycling rates
-
Create cross-industrial and cross-border symbioses
-
Create products and roadmaps customized for the construction sector.

Project
Through a partnership with VeChain and the ToolChainTM platform, we sought to enhance traceability and transparency for businesses. Our solutions would integrate RFID/NFC chips, QR codes, and unique digital IDs for data authenticity, especially in documenting sustainability efforts.
Objectives
-
Enable traceability and transparency in industries through blockchain technology.
-
Combat counterfeiting and ensure product authenticity.
-
Enhance supply chain visibility and efficiency.
-
Empower consumers with access to verifiable information and build trust in products.
