METRINO – The Deal
Editor's Notes
The growing problem with no solution. Similar to the “horse shit crisis” 100 years ago – solved by the arrival of cars.
PRT is the only viable city transportation solution. GOOGLE driverless cars will not solve congestion.
PRT is a radical improvement over current city transport systems. In terms of impact, it’s equivalent to the microchip replacing discrete electronics.
The urban transport market is huge ant not susceptible to economic cycles, weather or fashion. ...Tony Seba lectured on this subject in Auckland last month.
We have PROVEN that cities will let us build the Metrino system. These LOIs were issued BEFORE we even had a prototype.
Genuine demand the is most important element of RISK mitigation.
Yes, it is possible to BEAT the competition on EVERY parameter. If I prove it ... will you invest?
There is no contest with existing dinosaur systems.
METRINO is far better on every measured parameter, most importantly – financial.
These are key members of the New Zealand Team, who will deliver this business and make it reality.
And these are people who will help on the global scene. We have the professional resources needed for world-wide success.
This is so big that I will only discuss it with genuinely interested parties, because it seems to be “too good to be true”.
So give me a chance to prove it.
In addition to the technology already in place, software is the most vital component. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity. Only some will see “the writing on the wall”.
This initial fund will be used to broaden our business base, raise the next level of capital and visit cities to renew their LOIs.
I hope that you will understand – and grasp this opportunity.
Invest now and get involved in software development/infrastructure. For a cornerstone investor is a DOUBLE WIN. Thank you
