A selection of ventures we support.
Water & Sustainability
Waterfountain
Waterfountain has developed an unmanned, modularized desalination system that produces clean water without chemicals and at a fraction of the cost and land footprint of conventional plants. The patented method has been proven and third-party verified by SINTEF, with patents approved in multiple countries. By dramatically reducing brine salinity and pollution, it offers a sustainable alternative to the over-extraction of fresh water sources.

SoWind
SoWind Power builds plug-and-play off-grid power stations that combine solar and wind energy with recertified EV batteries for clean energy storage. The K5 station lets people generate, store, and use their own reliable electricity anywhere — especially where grid power is scarce. By giving existing technologies like used EV batteries a second life, SoWind turns clean energy into a durable, practical solution.

Depo Solutions
Depo Solutions is a Norwegian clean-tech company with German roots, supplying state-of-the-art recycling technology that turns waste into a commercial asset. Its patented fractional depolymerization process extracts diesel and heating oil from plastic and waste oil, outperforming traditional pyrolysis. The modular, cost-effective plants let clients start at the right size today and expand as demand grows.

MeGether
MeGether is a social collaboration platform for making music together in a fully digital, AI-driven world. Upload a beat, invite your network, and layer melodies, lyrics, and vocals into one finished song — no studio required. From real-time jamming to cross-distance karaoke, MeGether brings people together so a beat from Oslo can meet a vocal from Lagos and become something none of you would have made alone.
Visit websiteDigital Identity & Ethics
DDNA
Digital DNA is a portable identity and consent metadata layer that attaches to any digital creation — text, video, image, audio, code, or documents — and stays attached everywhere the content travels, from social media and AI models to archives and databases. It carries core identity, consent, protection, AI-interaction, and traceability data, letting creators define allowed uses, set sensitivity and ownership flags, and track content lineage. Think of it as EXIF data on steroids, standardized for humanity, safety, and ethics — digital provenance plus human dignity.
BAY Philosophy
A Safe Harbor For Ambitious Ideas.
Nordic Roots. Global Journeys. Trusted Guidance.
Helping people, technologies, and organizations navigate the future.
BAY exists to help ambitious people, companies, technologies, and ideas navigate growth, change, and opportunity. Inspired by the role of a natural harbor, BAY provides a place to prepare, connect, gain perspective, and chart the course ahead.
Culture is family, country, human interaction, business, and trade — and so much more. But most of all, culture comes from people, and your organization, your customers, and your partners are people. We believe culture is the forefront and the keystone of the past, today, and the future — whether the headline reads AI, the internet, or quantum physics. Culture is rarely the headline, but it is almost always the deciding factor.
