HOW I SERVE
Great People Innovating, Inventing, and Doing Great
Things
I search for emerging companies, technologies, disruptive technologies, innovations, start-ups and up-starts. I’ll look to match potential problems - e.g. “plastic pollution” to solutions e.g. "3D Printer for recycled plastic waste" - for venture capitalists, angel investors, and online funders. I’ll also highlight a variety of topics including funding success stories, the environment, housing, artificial intelligence, science, medical, aging populations, disabled populations, social entrepreneurs, philanthropy, and topical news. I’m always searching for great people innovating, inventing, and doing great things.
Can a Home Be
Built for $4000?
“3D Home Printing For The Developing
World"
"We
(New Story) have worked with our
partner, ICON, to build a 3D printer specifically for the
developing world and have successfully printed the first home. In El Salvador
for the first community, this innovation will mean:
●
$4,000 for one home
●
12-24 hours to print the home
●
Better quality for families
One
billion people live without a basic human need: shelter. Linear improvements
will never reach this market. We need a quantum leap
in affordability, speed, and quality to reach families exponentially
faster.
Our
goal is to print homes in El Salvador in 2018 and finish the community of
homes in 2019. Then democratize the technology to other non-profits and
governments to scale around the world.”
I don’t endorse. Only disseminate
(Opinions are my Own).
My
Opinion: Could this be scaled in the United States to reduce homelessness and
the unaffordability of homes for people who earn a decent wage?
