QR-home's updateable and reusable information tags, equipped with QR codes, make it easy for anyone to access contact information and quickly reunite lost pets or other lost items with their owners.
The idea was born when some young guys, in Wilma's home area, tried to find the owners of a lost puppy. It took them several hours, and when they found out that the dog was microchipped, they had no way of reading the chip without professional help.
The guys couldn't take the dog to either the police or the fire department to read the chip, as they didn't have a car. Their only tool was their cell phone. That's when the idea of using QR codes to quickly and easily connect owners with their lost pets was born.

The team started QR-home as a JA company. After winning the Startup of the Year award at the annual JA fair for Fyrbodal this spring, they were offered a place in our incubator as part of the prize.
- "We see the incubator as an opportunity to get our business off the ground, get support and advice, make new contacts and get help to get into fairs and be connected with relevant companies for our business," says Oscar.
