What problem do you want to solve?

"At Neo, we optimize the working conditions for technicians and volunteers in the event industry. The products available on the market today are outdated and come from a time when the user was not considered. At Neo, we shift the focus back to the user by using new innovative and complete solutions.

Setting up stages and scenery needs to be fast and efficient. Therefore, a way has been developed to quickly build strong and modular constructions. This was a brilliant solution 25 years ago, but the assembly method has not been optimized since. The Neo Truss System is a rethinking of this assembly method. It requires no tools, is silent, and reduces the number of loose parts. These optimizations not only improve working conditions for technicians and volunteers but also reduce the time it takes to complete a given task."

This effort has now received well-deserved recognition. Neo Truss System ApS has been awarded the AAU Startup Grant – a support of 250,000 DKK from the Obel Family Foundation. The grant will contribute to further developing the product portfolio and ensuring that Neo Clamp reaches the market in the new year.

It feels completely surreal, and we probably haven't fully realized it yet.
