Diagrid

In 2020, metergrid emerged from a simple yet powerful observation: while 53% of Germany's population lives in multi-family buildings, the potential for solar energy in these spaces remained largely untapped. The founders recognized that tenant electricity (Mieterstrom) projects were unnecessarily complex, legally complicated, and economically opaque for property owners. So they built metergrid - a comprehensive SaaS platform that makes decentralized energy simple, profitable, and legally compliant. Since launching, metergrid has grown to over 60 employees and now supplies more than 53,000 residents with clean, locally-generated solar power. The company's end-to-end solution handles everything from profitability calculation and billing software to tenant acquisition and project implementation. Property owners earn 8-15% returns while tenants access affordable green energy, creating a true win-win-win for owners, residents, and the environment. With backing from investors like 468 Capital and partnerships across the energy sector, metergrid is accelerating Germany's energy transition by bringing clean power directly to the buildings where people live.

In 2005, Jack Momose founded Degica with a vision to bridge the gap between global businesses and Japan's complex digital commerce landscape. What started as a video game publishing company helping international software vendors succeed in the Japanese market has evolved into a pioneering fintech company that powers cross-border payments across Asia and beyond. The company recognized early on that navigating Japan's unique payment ecosystem - from konbini convenience store payments to mobile wallets like PayPay and PayPay - was a significant barrier for international merchants. This insight led to the creation of KOMOJU, their flagship all-in-one payment solution that enables businesses to accept local payment methods through a single, unified API. Today, Degica stands as Japan's first global payments company, trusted by some of the world's largest platforms including Steam, TikTok, Shopify, and Wix. The company has grown from a small team to over 80 employees, with approximately half being non-Japanese talent, reflecting its truly international DNA. Headquartered in Tokyo with a Canadian founder at the helm, Degica has built a bilingual engineering culture that uses English as its common language. The company continues to expand beyond Japan into South Korea, China, Southeast Asia, Europe, and Latin America, helping thousands of merchants unlock new revenue streams while ensuring compliance with local regulations and consumer preferences. With a commitment to excellence underscored by PCI DSS and ISO 27001 certifications, Degica has become an essential partner for organizations looking to succeed in the complex world of Asian digital commerce.

In 2015, Gorgias was founded with a clear mission: to revolutionize customer experience for ecommerce brands. The founders recognized that traditional helpdesk solutions were failing online merchants - support teams were drowning in repetitive inquiries, customer data was fragmented across platforms, and valuable sales opportunities were slipping through the cracks. So they built Gorgias, a customer support platform specifically designed for ecommerce that centralizes all conversations into one unified inbox while leveraging deep integrations with platforms like Shopify to give agents complete customer context at their fingertips. Today, Gorgias has evolved into the Conversational AI platform for ecommerce, trusted by over 15,000 merchants worldwide. The company's AI Agent resolves 60% of support inquiries automatically while increasing conversions 2.5x through tailored, brand-aligned conversations. With 400 employees across offices in San Francisco and beyond, Gorgias continues to innovate at the intersection of AI and commerce, helping brands turn every customer interaction into a relationship that's personal, seamless, and intelligent. From its beginnings as a two-person team to serving both SMBs and enterprise merchants generating $20M+ in GMV, Gorgias remains focused on one vision: making conversations the #1 way people shop online.
