Our mission
Our mission is to connect user problems to designers all over the world: To create a platform where people can share their problems, be it local to their village, to their country, or worldwide; and where designers can pick these problems up with evidence of market and help solve them even from the other side of the world, while having the opportunity to build a business out of them.
Our challenge
Modern theories suggest developed economies have reached a stagnation point where further innovation appears impossible. However, someone down the street, or on the other side of the world, may have thousands of problems that need solving. The greatest challenge is incentivizing user adoption, as people can be hesitant to share problems that could produce profits, and can be too lazy to install and set-up an app just to post their problems.
Our solution
To create an app which not only connects users (and their problems) to designers, but also connect both of these to the final stakeholders of product cycle: manufacturers, connecting all three main stakeholders in products鈥� life-cycles. Manufacturers can then post their finalized products back on the app, in a 鈥渕arketplace鈥�, giving the app an additional purpose for typical users, incentivizing adoption. Allows for products to be developed collaboratively by stakeholders in different parts of the world.
The 黑料福利网 contest is a great way to help us develop an app that can potentially help all stakeholders of product design all over the world. Solving and sharing user problems, producing market for designers, and providing profitable design solutions to manufacturers; all while helping promote equality worldwide
