Okay, you can start. There are two hundred people and they want to hear something
more about your project.
Hello everyone, from Armenia!
We are team...
That's not loud, the is not two hundred people. He will not believe us that
there are two hundred people. So, once more, hi!
Hi!
Yes, that's better, thanks.
We are team mLab, we are presenting project Clean H2O, which is about checking water
quality.
We designed and embedded platform which connects to different sensors that measure different parameters of
water and wirelessly sends it to wi-fi enabled devices.
The advantages of our system are that it is compact, it is cheap, it is
customisable and very easy to modify by adding or removing sensors. It has a user
friendly interface, it is wi-fi enabled and it also and analyzes the major data.
After extensive research, we came up with three alternative business models and divided our customer
group into three segments.
We have talked to prime minister of Armenia for collaboration in creating interactive water quality
map that will display the quality of water resources in our country in real time.
And finally, third segment includes population at risk, we have a dream to give them
solution to check water the quality that's decreasing the number of deaths, water bourne diseases
etc.
We have a great team of enthusiastic young people with the same vision that are
specialised in engineering, software development, organization and business development. We have many key business partners,
which you can see hare and we have worked on the project for more than
one year.
Thank you for listening and you're welcome to ask any questions.
Okay.
First segment include individual users, aquarium and swimming pool owners, aquaculture, food and beverage industries.
For example, imagine fishing farmers checking the chartability and oxygen quantity in water.
The second segment includes mining industries, irrigation centre, environmentalist and governments.
I have a few questions for you. Why did you choose this project? Why did
you start with Clean H2O?
So, the prior, initial mission, initial mission was to create some solution that would help
people who live in populations are already at risk, because they die everyday while drinking
polluted water. We wanted to create some affordable solution that would help them to check
the water quality before drinking.
So, that was our first mission and this is this is our final mission.
Okay, great. And the second question is that, what actually did prime minister of Armenia
tell you about your project? Is there, your government is going to really use your
software?
Yes, they told, the prime minister told us that they need side solution because monitoring
water quality in real time is something that is very needed for every country because
water problem is a great problem nowadays. And they told that they will be very
happy to collaborate with us for the further creation of that mat.
Okay, and last question for you. How how hard it is to start a company
in Armenia? Is it okay or do have many problem with the government? Does th,e
do the partners you have really support and in what way? How is it problematic
to start a company in Armenia?
The problem, the biggest problem is not the government. Biggest problem is just to get
the right business plan, because if you have wrong business plan you will just fail.
So I think the biggest problem it is in you, in your solution, not in
the other things. And our partners help us very much and our key business partner
is Microsoft Innovation Centre of Armenia. They help us very much with the marketing side,
because we are all engineers and software developers; we don't understand margin and marketing; they
help us very much. Okay, thank you, Narik. Thank very much. Thank you all, have
a nice day. Thank you. Bye-bye.
