Red Bull Mobile — Creating a data roaming service that won’t drain your wallet
Hintergrund:
Boliga Group, a media company that runs multiple online portals in the housing market, attracts approximately 1.9 million visitors monthly to its Danish websites. www.Boliga.dk, the country’s largest and most established real estate listing website, has operated since the early days of the Internet.
In 2015, some of its UX patterns needed to be updated, and the UI design started to feel out of place in the modern era. So, they tasked us with redesigning and rebuilding the website to propel it into the next online era.

Ziel des Projekts:
After we successfully prepared the Horizon 2020 proposal and the Phenolexa project was funded, we became responsible for its management and coordination. We handled logistics, coordinated work packages, organised meetings, and managed external communications. Additionally, we managed financial matters. Our senior consultant was responsible for financial reporting, collecting information from our partners, and ensuring project compliance with future audits.
We also had to oversee the ethical aspects of the project. Our responsibility was to gather data from the consortium detailing studies on various cell lines that our scientists plan to use. We had to ensure that we addressed all the questions the European Commission expected to be answered.
Right from the first steps, the Phenolexa project wasn’t shying away from the big challenges our team had to solve. Good thing we love puzzles! For example, we often needed to ship materials in solid or liquid form between partners, but the COVID-19 pandemic wasn’t making it easy for us. Even now, we still encounter similar issues because some materials contain 70% alcohol, which exceeds the allowable limit for air travel and could be mistaken for a security threat by airlines. Fun fact: once, we had to prove to the airlines that our package was meant to make a massive BOOM in the scientific world, not their plane. For reasons like that, we were constantly looking for the best ways to dry and ship out materials in solid form.
The most challenging part of the project was figuring out the optimal amount of waste needed to make the final product financially viable for establishing such factories worldwide. We are still exploring the best solutions in this area.

Ausgeführte Arbeiten:
- Assisting with the preparation of the initial proposal for the Horizon 2020 funding program.
- Drafting amendments to the grant agreements.
- Coordinating and managing the project.
- Handling the financial aspects of the project.
Ergebnis:
The Phenolexa project, which commenced in 2021, is approaching its conclusion. Over the past few years, our consortium has found a way to transform dry agricultural waste into value through an innovative biorefinery process. Functional polyphenolic bioactives can be used for a broad range of applications, such as bakery, dairy-based or functional foods, beverages, supplements, traditional medicine, and cosmetics.
