skinuvitaWhen Jan Elsner was diagnosed with psoriasis 25 years ago, a long search for the right treatment began. Light therapy helped him the most – but regular visits to the doctor's office were time-consuming and difficult to integrate into his daily routine. Medications with severe side effects were not an option for him. This need for a more flexible form of therapy gave rise to a vision in 2019: light therapy that adapts to life, not the other way around. Together with Maria, Till, Jens, and Janina, Jan founded Skinuvita as a spin-off from the University of Bremen. Their goal? Light therapy that works flexibly from home – without the stress of appointments, but with medical supervision. Today, exactly that is possible. Skinuvita brings proven light therapy directly to your home – simple, safe, and medically supervised via our app. This allows you to integrate your treatment into your everyday life without sacrificing medical quality. Our team is constantly growing, with one clear goal in mind: rethinking skin health – so that therapy finally becomes as flexible as life itself.

LutendLutend: MeetFirst. Date Mindfully. Love Deeply.

Lutend is an innovative matchmaking platform solving the biggest frustrations of online dating with a Meet-First approach. Instead of endless swiping, we directly match users for anonymous, scheduled virtual blind dates. No more “doom-swiping” or superficial profiles, our model is built on authenticity, safety, and a commitment to helping people find serious, lasting relationships.

We only charge for successful matches, guaranteeing a timely connection.

With a clear roadmap for growth, Lutend is poised to capture the growing market of daters tired of superficial connections.


Transforming Dating into Authentic Connection

Lutend turns dating from a game of chance into a journey of meaningful experiences by addressing every pain point:
• No Swiping, Only Matches: Our algorithm directly connects users based on preferences and mutual availability.
• Blind-Date Focus: No pressure to craft the “perfect” profile. You meet authentically, before seeing photos.
• Built-in Accountability: Meetings are scheduled in advance, eliminating ghosting and awkward first chats.
• Pay for What You Get: Users only pay for matches they actually meet, with a full refund guarantee if we don’t deliver.
• Unparalleled Safety: Strict government ID and video verification stop fake profiles. Meetings are monitored, with strong reporting and permanent bans for harassment.


How Lutend’s Matchmaking Works
1. Direct Matching, No Swiping
Our algorithm matches you based on preferences and availability by removing endless swiping and decision fatigue.
2. Anonymous Profiles
Once matched, you’ll see an anonymous bio and can share optional voice notes or Q&A responses. Photos remain hidden.
3. Scheduled Blind Dates
Matches agree on a time for a virtual blind date, replacing small talk with real, in-the-moment connection.
4. Safe and Monitored Meetings
Video calls are partially monitored and logged, ensuring a safe, harassment-free environment.
5. You Decide What’s Next
After the meeting, both participants give feedback and choose the next step: reveal profiles and chat, pass on the match, or report misconduct.


Lutend transforms online dating by making it intentional, safe, and authentically human.

Cats LifestyleCats Lifestyle will manufacture solidly constructed scratching furniture suitable for every cat species, size, and age, and tested to a load capacity of 120 kg. The furniture is characterized by exceptional durability, backed by a 20-year manufacturer's warranty – virtually indestructible for cats. In addition to production, we also offer on-site assembly. Our goal is to revolutionize the market with high quality, sustainability, and unprecedented service. Our scratching furniture leaves behind 0% waste and thus 0% CO2 when it has reached the end of its lifespan or is no longer needed. In Germany, more than 800,000 tons of waste are generated annually from worn-out scratching furniture, resulting in more than 3 million tons of CO2 – which corresponds to, for example, one-quarter of the annual CO2 emissions of a city like Bremen. With our scratching furniture, cat owners save around 50% of their scratching post costs over the lifetime of a cat – which are incurred by constantly replacing standard scratching posts. Cats Lifestyle will set new standards and become the new standard in the field. After eight years of research and development, the product and service are ready for market.
