      • pitchBeejli Technologies (formerly MobiSolar) mission is to bring cheap affordable solar energy to low­‐income households that are off the grid and currently rely on kerosene lamps for lighting. Our patent-­‐pending Solar and Wireless technology will enable the solar lanterns to be sold at 1/4 the cost of current competing products in the market. The onboard wireless chipset will allow tracking of these devices and provide effective collateral for banks or microfinance organizations. Beejli's short­‐term strategy is to focus on the Indian market that has about 100 million people off the grid. By making the solar energy affordable, Beejli will not only capture the market but disrupt the current kerosene market.

      • pitchOn a global scale, access to safe drinking water is an acute problem that causes more than three million incidents of illness and death per year. Existing technologies, such as chlorine and iodine, produce a distinct change in taste and odor. Working with populations in Cape Town, South Africa, we identified the taste and odor of chemically purified water a major discouraging factor in consistent use of water treatment. Amanzi is water purification product that neutralizes and enhances the taste of chemically purified drinking water.

      • pitch**Two Problems** _Culture of Shame._ During the Khmer Rouge regime, children were coerced to take part in the genocide of nearly 25% of the Cambodia population. While many demonstrated notable technical aptitude with machinery and equipment, that knowledge was used for one purpose -- to kill. _High Student Dropout Rates._ Now, 37 years after the genocide events, 70% of Cambodia’s population is under 30 years old. However, many children (potential engineers, doctors, and professional leaders), have their fate determined at the end of primary school, when parents pull them out of school to work at home. **One Solution: Connect Generations, Promoting Community Involvement** We will train ex-Khmer soldiers to teach rural project-based workshops for young students. We have developed lessons in collaboration with the Practical Energy Network (PEN) dedicated to equipping students in developing nations with the technical ingenuity to develop solutions to community issues (eg. solar-powered lighting). By using abilities learned from a military lifestyle for positive, community building endeavors, soldiers will be seen in a new positive role, enabling them to become local leaders and opening the door to seeking support. Upon seeing the impact of their children's projects on the community level, parents will be more likely to invest in continued education. **Thus, two problems, one solution: Design for Peace.**
      • intent
      • impact30-40 students will gain practical engineering skills in a fun environment by building items which will improve their families’ lifestyle. 5-8 soldiers will receive therapy and will been seen in a new positive role within the community.

      • pitch**PROBLEM** Many organizations design solar lanterns, water filters, and other life-improving essential technologies for homes in developing countries. However, these products rarely benefit end users at scale because the rural last mile lacks effective distribution, marketing, and service. Meanwhile, 90% of the 0B annual retail spending in India takes place in 14M small, low-margin, family-run retail shops. Retail shops don’t sell essential technologies because they don’t know about them, where to find them, or how to service them. _Essmart offers a solution. Essmart delivers the goods._ **SOLUTION** Essmart is an essential technology distributor with an embedded retail presence. We address three problems that local retail shops face: 1. Knowledge Gap: We amplify demand for “essential technologies” via a paper and mobile catalogue and appealing marketing campaigns. 2. Distribution Gap: We supply essential technologies to Essmart sections in retail stores. 3. After-Sales Service Gap: We provide training, warranties, and maintenance service on essential technologies to ensure long-term benefits. **TRACTION** After founding in October 2011, Essmart surveyed over 200 retailers in southern India during January 2012. In our pilot, two retail shops sold 17 Essmart products in one week in Pollachi, Tamil Nadu. In Summer 2012, Essmart will begin year one of operations, with the goal of establishing distribution channels to 65 rural shops by year end.

      • pitchBangladesh is located in Ganges Delta with a population of 160,000,000 and 80% of land in floodplain. It is the most flood-prone and densely populated country in the world. Frequent hazardous floods bring large losses of lives and properties to the vulnerable groups. 75% of Bangladesh's population live in rural areas and work in agriculture, fishing and agricultural laboring. In the project region around 40% peasants are landless, who land up in poorly-built slums with all kinds of affiliated social problems. The livelihood insecurity makes the landless peasants more vulnerable to flood. There is urgency to shelter the landless poor, to reduce their vulnerability to flood, as well as to enhance their livability. The project aims to design and build a few prototypes of low-cost, flood-resilient, sustainable and beautiful shelters for the landless poor in Kalapara Upazila, which is a cyclonic flood prone sub-district in rural Bangladesh. It emphasizes the community-based survey, micro plan and design approach. It also makes full use of the vernacular flooding mitigation, and keeps the harmony with nature and the memory of tradition. But at the same time it develops a modern adaptation that uses innovative technologies and design.

      • pitch**Problem** Although professional workers in Senegal have several options for work clothing, very few offer good value for money. Local stores are overpriced, charging between and 0 for a shirt, and up to 0 for a suit. Clothes sold in the open market are often used and outdated. Tailor-made clothes are cheaper and appreciated by middle class customers for ensuring perfect fit, but the whole process of having clothes tailored is a real hassle. **Solution** We will produce semi-assembled apparel kits of pre-designed and pre-cut business clothing, similar to an IKEA DIY furniture kit. The main idea is that people will easily be able to try on their loosely stitched clothing. The customer will then take the kit to a tailor who will finish sewing the garment. Within one day, the customer’s garment is ready and it looks exactly as it did in the catalogues. This will reduce the inconvenience of the overall tailoring process, dropping from 3 weeks, 6-8 trips and inconsistent results to 1-2 days, 2-3 trips and excellent, consistent results. **Context** Our plan is to offer free training programs for local tailors during which we will have one of our professional employees help train them to use our products and develop their technical and sales skills. Successful completion of the training program will lead to Fula&Style certification. Any tailor who successfully participates in these training sessions will then be referenced on our website and marketing material.

      • pitchThere is a shortage in skilled personnel versed in technical subjects in Ghana. This poses a challenge to sustainable development in the country considering the growing importance of environmental and resource management. Such tasks typically have to be outsourced thus raising the expenditure associated with related projects. Additionally, data collating is mainly the responsibility of the government and it is undercapitalized to do this comprehensively. Ghana is at a developmental confluence where sustainability has to factor into many aspects of its economy to make it competitive in the global setting. With the discovery of oil, the increase in water resource and other infrastructure development projects, growing mining sector and public health initiatives, it is evident that the effective use of GIS will touch on all areas of the Ghanaian society. Investing in the human capital stock will ensure the needed sustained technological growth, promote sustainable development and lead to job creation. Our scope is to educate Ghanaians to use GIS and GPS to a) provide advanced education opportunities & discover talents to fill the information and human resources demand of current energy market b) collect and provide important geographic data for local NGOs, government and private companies. Our solution is more than solving local employment issue, but also encouraging young adults to become leaders of their society by learning technology skills.
