AdriaComm - Firewall adapter for videoconferencing
system to work with any device (phone, computer, tablet)
seamlessly

Mr. Krtolica has over 28 years of experience in software design and engineering. His early
training and experience was focused on business…
Ned Krtolica
CTO

With companies such as Microsoft and Cisco vying for market share, the lack of statistical information about market
size is almost academic from the standpoint of a start-up. The competition has taken to the airwaves, suggesting
that a broad consumer market exists, and that a demand for online meetings resonates in the corridors of
corporate America. The recent economic climate, although hopefully not a lasting malaise, also helps to make a
case for online meetings instead of costly travel. It is difficult to extract financial details from the financials of
Microsoft and Cisco as they relate to income from online meetings subscriptions and usage. Nonetheless, the key
question becomes: How does a fledgling organization muscle its way into such exalted company? The answer will
be: By making video conferencing and collaboration very easy to do and use on any device including big video
conferencing devices based on h323/SIP standards.
Challenge
AdriaComm is in the business of providing comprehensive and secure software for the purpose of conducting
meetings on line, backed by patented intellectual property that protects the company from predatory competition.
Revenue from licenses for the use of the AdriaComm patents is included in the business model. The idea is to make
a product that traverses all H323/SIP inherited boundaries regarding firewall restrictions and make a client that
works in any network environment without restrictions whatsoever.
Idea

We all worked together at my startup Cromerica Technologies. We were consulting with many technology
companies in the Silicon Valley developing software for them (including ATT Labs, Intel, Zip2 (cofounded by Elon
Musk - his first startup), and many more. Whenever we had extra time we were working on our AdriaComm project.
Story
The solution is "firewall adapter" developed and patented by AdriaComm LLC. It is easy to have any umber of
Polycom, Cisco and any other "big" and small professional video conferncing system work with any other device
(phone, computed, tablet) seamlessly.
What differenates AdriaCom from others that are addressing the same problem is that it will provide a maximum
security where you can control everything, the patented technology which will give a protection against legal actions
and a unique flexibility with every facet of meetings, all security measures and scaleable.

SoC design involves 15 billion Plus transistors on a die.
Most critical part in this process like architecture, design, debug and verification are manual.
This takes 2 + years to have chip ideas into silicon and involves heavy risk of being buggy and results in costly
respins.
Challenge
AI driven electronics system or system on a chip design.
Idea

We are creating industrial revolution 2.0 in Electronics systems/SoCs, Where we want to take it to market size of
more than $1 trillion+ from current $300 billion. We use AI as main tool to do so.
I am a techie with 21 granted patents and 7 pending ones in the area of chip design, multimedia, wireless and
security with lot of inventions in my mind (even at the moment). Have 17 years of IC design experience. I am always
curious about machine learning and AI. Prashant is my former colleague , where we worked in Transwitch wayback
in 2000-2. He did his MBA from ISB has been in many marketing roles. One day he asked "hello Technologist, have
any new ideas or plan to start a company". I said yes and asked him "Do you want to join?". So we are in together
now .
Story
We have a flow/setup where we can automate from Specification to GDSII through machine learning and big data
We give GDSII out in 5 days from the time spec is given in the
Format we have defined. It is a simple 1 or 2 page format of simple txt.
Currently we have spec to Top level net list in 2 days
Ultimately this venture and technology will reduce chip design to a simple query which can be integrated into
system companies or OEMs as an application interface .

No reliable discovery of home based services in the neighbourhood. Lack of standardization in price points, on time
delivery, and crowd sourced feedback on providers in services.
Challenge
Aurospaces is an elastic neighbourhood service(s) discovery platform with productisation of the prices, on time
delivery and a complete crowd sourced review framework to help customers select right provider.
Idea

After returning from US to settle down with my family, I found it extremely hard to find basic services to be taken
care at home. When I happen to discuss it with my friends about the problem, they acknowledged this and also
added that even if we can find the provider, prices and services are not uniform and service providers are not
reliable.
This was the culmination of Aurospaces (light in dark space). With my technology background decided to introduce
neighbourhood search with my patent.
Story
Aurospaces.com is an app based neighbourhood service availing platform with map technology, with a lazor focus
of B2B and B2C. We are uberizing the service experience in wellness, beauty and home care services with our
unique patent pending technology. Crowd sourced rating based on skills, behaviour, timely service and optimised
price allows customers to choose the right provider at right time. Aurospaces is into offering wellness, beauty and
home care services. We are currently operating in Bangalore and Hyderabad, Pune and NCR.
Founded by IIT-M alum with significant experience in technology startups in the US and built with passion. We

Medium and small companies have three logistic problems:
1. It is painful to plan and manage their fleets, workforces and delivery operation. Lots of calls and tedious planning
process. Traffic congestion and unstructured road in Indonesia contribute to the inefficiency of the delivery
planning and operations. Money and fuel wasted for the inefficiency is incredible.
2. In-house development and proprietary software available in the market used by established companies are not
affordable for SME.
3. SMEs don't have budget and time to hire Transportation planner, Fleet Managers or even Dispatchers. Trained
planner and dispatchers are also expensive and hard to find.
Challenge
We develop intelligent platform which helps last mile logistics startup and Small Medium Company(SME) plan and
manage their delivery and fleet operations autonomously with lowest cost and seamless installation.
Idea

We were working in technology company developing advanced software and hardware for transportation. It was
started when we were doing contract job for in-house fleet management and logistic software. There is no turn key,
affordable solution to manage, plan and analyze delivery, logistic and fleet operation for Small and Medium
Enterprise autonomously.
Available solutions are still very basic and need expertise of trained dispatcher.
The CEO has strong background in Computer Science (PhD in CS), the CCO has strong commercial background and
has started a home delivery business which failed due to unavailability of robust delivery management platform.
Story
1. Our platform applies AI (Artificial Intelligence) and Complex Event Processing to plan and track logistic operation
which will minimizes human intervention. The system will semi/full automatically plan and manage fleet dispatch
operation with defined business rules. Analytics also employed to monitor and improve operational efficiency.
2. It has open order management API (Application Programming Interface) which can be connected with any
location based apps, so it is easier to accept and manage ad-hoc orders from external apps.
3. The price is cheaper than competitors.

Serah Kanyua
CMO

For the everyday woman in an emerging economy, unemployment and inflation are on the rise while social
pressure and the need to keep up with trends is an everyday battle. Kenyan women, like most women in the world,
are only wearing about 25% of their closets. The rest are a combination of pieces they hope to fit into some day,
impractical pieces bought on an impulse purchase, or pieces that they have been seen wearing one too many
times.
Challenge
Closet49 empowers women to find confidence and style in affordable clothing while enabling income generation.
Closet49 achieves this through a web platform that enables women to sell brand new, gently worn, or vintage
clothing and accessories directly from their closets. Sellers can participate in the marketplace by simply taking a
picture on their mobile phones and uploading it for sale directly onto the marketplace. Buyers can find a wide
variety of affordable bargains anytime, anyplace, conveniently on their mobile phones or computers, and use one
simple checkout.
Idea

The co-founders met in a history class in high school. Fast forward to a few years after college graduation, Abagi
was returning home from study abroad with a suitcase full of dresses she could no longer wear because of a
different workplace environment. Serah started selling clothes out of her closet dorm room to her peers who often
asked her where she found her amazing clothes. The two discovered a need for affordable, but fashionable finds
amongst family and friends and led to an evolution of the Closet49 marketplace.
Story
Closet49 addresses the everyday woman's problem by enabling women to sell items directly from their closets
simply by taking a picture of it on their mobile phones. Buyers can quickly find the right item to meet their personal
tastes, budget, access a variety of styles, by using keyword search and filter options as well as contribute and
engage with our style communities. If a user finds an item that they love but has no idea how to wear it, the
Closet49 algorithm, curation and community can build entire outfits around this piece, pairing it with existing
staples in the users’ wardrobe as well as other items available for purchase from other women’s closets.

Group, LLC 2014 - Present Entity was organized for the purpose…

According to Fightchronicdisease.org, chronic disease is a $700B+ per year problem, and the number of people
chronic conditions affects is increasing, as the costs are skyrocketing. According to chronicdisease.org, more than
two-thirds of all deaths are caused by one or more of five chronic diseases: heart disease, cancer, stroke, chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease, and diabetes. Chronic diseases and conditions are among the most common,
costly, and preventable of all health problems (cdc.gov/chronic disease/overview).
Challenge
The startup is an innovative medical technology company. My passion in entrepreneurship and experience in
enterprise -level business is what sparked an interest initially. Having worked as a front-end software developer for
a diabetes management application is how the idea of medical technology came about.
The primary business strategy is a licensing revenue model. The company currently contracts with specialists in
respective disciplines to develop the medical device. The technical terminology for the device is referred to as a
non-invasive metabolic panel. The device operates two fold: 1) it serves a non-invasive blood analysis device,
eliminating the use and disposal of needles when performing blood work on a patient, and 2) the discriminatory
analysis feature enables the ability to screen patients for particular chronic conditions. The ultimate goal with the
device is better early detection capabilities within healthcare provider organizations.
Idea

The founder researched the opportunity, technology, and concluded its practical application. After the preliminary
work of consulting with physicians and healthcare provider executives, the feasibility and usefulness of the device
was determined. The founder then sought out engineers and advisors possessing the necessary skills required to
deploy the device. The founder employed the firms and contracted workers moving forward.
Story
The solution is preventative medicine. This means better early detection capabilities. The solution proposed is a
non-invasive metabolic panel with discriminatory analysis features. Our medical device is designed to detect blood
parameter levels non-invasively and screen individuals to indicate to the physician whether a patient should be
looked at more closely regarding a particular chronic condition. The main objective at this stage is to make the
physician aware of an individual's condition in order to determine whether additional testing is necessary.

Artists are good at art but not at technology. They can make a painting but not sell it or handle the hard work
associated with selling or even showcasing their work of art to a wide variety of audience Limited choice available to
art patrons at any one venue Artists do not get the due recognition.
Challenge
Please to introduce to you a concept called Curator of art we call it ”Rendezvous for artists and art patrons.”
One of the promoters being an artists herself is well aware of the difficulties faced by artists. Artists have a creative
mind which can focus on making art and have limited mind space for promoting or selling it.
It was during one of the messy times when her group was struggling to work on various aspects of organizing an
exhibition for their paintings, that we realized how difficult it is for them to showcase their paintings to even a
handful of people in a limited territory and organize each and everything by themselves. It was during these times
that an idea was born to create a platform where artists can showcase and sell their work of art to audience spread
over a wide canvas called “The world”
Idea

I ( Arvind Malick )and Mukesh had been running a digital marketing company for about two years. Mona is my sister
in law. During one of her pre show promotions, she approached us for helping her out to promote her event in
online space. During this interaction we realized, that this group of artist can be only good at producing the work of
art and not in organising events, exhibitions, promotions or any process that involves showcasing and selling their
art. Also they had very little idea of what technology can do for them and help them showcase their work of art o
the world. It is then this idea of curator of art was born.
Story
Taking the pain away from artists and allowing them to focus on what they are good at - that is making art. We take
the onus of showcasing their work of art on a global platform. A virtual gallery which is open 24 X 7.
Art patrons get a wide variety of art from different artists and art forms to choose from under one roof.
We promote artists along with art, giving then due recognition on global platform.

Illustrators and artists lack both the technical skills to build themselves a website or the money to hire someone to
build it for them. To show their work online, they end using services like blogger or flickr, or niche social networks
like behance. These sites are ok to show their work, but they are quite a poor option to build a personal brand and
to differentiate from others.
The portfolio website should be like a business card that makes the artist stand out, be memorable and build a
professional image.

Drawfolio is born from a deep admiration and respect for illustration and graphic artists. The road to success for
such a professional is though, and we love the people who fight to make a living out of their passion. Because of
that, and using our expertise on the Web, we set our goal to solve the digital pains of the illustration artists, helping

The automobile maintenance market in India is highly fragmented and lacks trusted service providers. Prices are
controlled by the service providers and this leaves very little scope for standardization. Most of the service providers
also lacks the skills to address the issues properly. On the other hand, it is very difficult for the people to do day to
day maintenance of their vehicle due to time, standard and price constraints. Also, during any on-road crisis there is
no option for the people to get their problems resolved.

Idea

Three founders have known each other previously while working at Rockstand Digital Pvt. Ltd. Jitendra is an old
friend of the founders who agreed to be part of the initiative after he realized the potential of the service. The idea
came to founders when they were travelling late from work and their cab faced a malfunction on the road. In the
middle of night they all felt that how great it would be if they could get a help just like they could book a cab
through smartphones. Later on they studied the various trends in this market and understood the problems by
interviewing cab drivers, vehicle owners and service providers. Research concluded that a lack of tech infrastructure
to streamline this vertical of service is one of the major problems faced by people these days.

The problem we aim to solve here is the lack of advertising opportunities for entrepreneurs especially the startups.
There has already been a monopoly in traditional advertising mediums and only big companies get to advertise
their products like in billboards.
Another problem we tackled is the ineffectivity of advertisements. We aim to raise the chances of ad viewers
purchasing an advertiser’s product.
Challenge
DropBy is a fun new way to explore what the world has to offer. We created a platform wherein affiliates can
advertise their business to gain market while end-users engaging with our affiliates gets a share of the revenue
from DropBy’s profit, thus creating a healthy supply demand chain. It’s the Uber of businesses!
DropBy is to launch first in the Philippines and eventually, will expand worldwide.
Why the Philippines? It’s because of Filipino consumerism. Demands are high for new products, information, and
even things we don’t really need. Filipinos love going to malls, commercial places and even in social media where
most of the information is placed.

Platform has been in the MLM industry for 7 years and decided to create an easier way to “network” a product

More and more people are dissatisfied with traditional way of reserving tables in restaurants via phone calls.
More and more people want to pay for the check using secured Apps rather than giving away credit cards or cash.
More and more people want to get information about restaurants from professionals: food experts, critics and
reviewers, food bloggers and food photographers together with others who love sharing impressions from visiting
their favourite restaurants.
Finding restaurants by location, time, and number of guests, cuisine, average bill and discount rate and many other
special features (early breakfasts or all day breakfasts, pet-friendliness, table games etc.) together with different
ratings and reviews.
Challenge
EATSMART is an online real-time restaurant reservation service. It takes only three clicks to find the best restaurant
in your city, to make a reservation and, moreover, to get a pleasant discount or a compliment from the restaurant.
Easy system of filters helps website and mobile app users select restaurants based on a variety of criteria. Only the
restaurants which we visit ourselves and which we can strongly recommend to a best friend can be on the list. We
offer: ratings of the best places, based on visitors’ reviews, must-visit lists by our experts, interviews with the field
opinion makers, restaurant news and gastronomic announcements of your city.
Idea

A team of 4 founders: Serhiy, Roman, Dmitriy and Oleg started developing the website at the end of 2013. On
March 2014 we launched IOS and Android Apps. One year passed and we attracted 110 Thousand USD from
Aleksandr Konoval. For the last year our team grew up to 12 people, we reached 700 realtime connected
restaurants, launched monetization (1,1 USD for a booking), were nominated as a«Startup of 2015» and on,
moreover, service reached the breakeven point on March 2016. Our next goal is to become the largest real-time
restaurant reservation service in 13 countries: Ukraine, UAE, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Russia, Moldova,
Belarus, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Qatar, Lebanon, Jordan.

Going out for a drink is the most common way of socializing. EinDrink® is an app that helps you find a new friend,
interested to have a drink with you, one click away.
Some of the challenges we are facing:
• Other companies (market competition against bigger companies).
• Marketing costs.
• Too focused app idea for such wide market.
• Other social media platforms.
• Market saturation.
Challenge
Since the beginning, company's main activity is software programs.
White Software won in June 2015 a grant of 25,000 euros in a European project. The company developed a mobile
platform (IOS and Android) for booking taxi services online. The components of the application Mercury (User and
Taxi Driver) platform are available on Apple Store and Google Play.
Currently, White Software team is working to develop a social media platform with name EinDrink.
Idea

Going out for a drink is the most common way of socializing. The Co-founders of the company considered that the
idea of ??developing a social app with new functionalities it’s a need these days. Whether is just a regular cup of
coffee, beer, wine,gin tonic, etc.., drinking has become more fun. We value people over profits, quality over quantity,
and keeping it real. As such, we deliver an unmatched working relationship with our clients.
Story
- Sometimes you just want to go out for a drink/or to go to an event, but you’re not sure who’s available and where
is the most suitable event around you. It would be difficult to call all your friends or to find a new person available
in terms of minutes.
- You’re visiting a new city and in the evening you would like to go out for a drink with a local or maybe with other
tourists and exchange impressions over a glass of wine.

All existing social media apps are two-dimensional platforms. On one hand, they let people build online
communities and on the other hand they drive people to distinguish themselves within a particular platform's
online community. The problem is that this type of distinction is brief and evaporates in just a few fleeting
moments... until your friend's or someone else's new post comes up eager for likes! In the existing platforms, no
one can capitalize on his interaction. No one can forever retain his legacy. Above all, there is no evident and direct
benefit for the community itself.
Challenge
Famedome is a social media platform. Based on the vanity of all human aspirations, it enables people to achieve
real fame and recognition, in this life and posthumously. At the same time, it reveals and strengthens the latent
bond between individuals and society and elevates users' ethical and material contribution by promoting
benevolent behavior and actions towards pure philanthropy!
Idea

Anthimos and I have been friends for over 25 years. He is also my son's Godfather! We've been talking about this
idea for almost a year now, as it represents our personal ideals and our stance towards life.
Story
In Famedome users also create online communities, they also try to distinguish themselves in every community, but
more than that, users may build their fame, something that is to remain forever and beyond the internet, even after
their death! People capitalize on their interaction with others to create a legacy, while at the same time they actively
support the society through beneficence.
Famedome transforms user's image into real value for him. Then, this value is converted to contribution for the
society. Coming full-circle, society credits the user's image within the platform, leading to a repetitive mutually-
rewarding cycle:
Image--> Value--> Contribution--> Image
ROI now has a new meaning... Famedome is the first three-dimensional platform!

According to statistics, in the operation of a variety of vehicles all over the world, on according to experts opinion,
10-30% of the fuel is stolen (i.e., the car’s tanks gets only a part of its intended fuel). Our method is not only simple,
effective and inexpensive, but it is also suitable for all vehicles (both models of vehicle and year issue). It is ideal for
logistic and transportation companies, with constructive and other organizations having their gas stations or used
networking filling stations. We solve problem of fuel theft using complex patented solution based on combined
technologies. Because only one technology will not give high effect.
Challenge
We offer effective way of fuel control against fuel theft using integration of both technologies GPS/ GSM of vehicles
and fuel filling stations. Why was such idea born? Because according our deep experience there is no ideal method
of fuel control. And only combination of 2 different methods allow us to achieve the best result.
Idea

We have met at project in Ukraine with agricultural vehicles such as tractors, harvesters. We accepted non-
standard way of fuel theft opening. So owners of customer's company were surprised of height volume of stolen
fuel. Our main idea of project was born that time.
Story
According to statistics more than 15% of fuel is stolen during operation by staff. So our solution avoids of fuel theft
and increases profit of companies.
The advantages of integration of Magellan GPS monitoring system and vehicle refueling Nafta POS.
• It is the cheapest, most reliable and most discreet way to control fuel theft
• If the customer has other GPS trackers, we use them without no additional fee.
• presence of fuel sensors (fuel level sensors , ultrasonic, reading information from CAN bus) only increase the

Kids content growth is fastest in digital as its consumers are native to the medium. While you and I are adapting to
the medium, they are born in the digital world and hence take naturally to it.
Currently kids’ content on digital platform is mostly on YouTube which has a few issues. Firstly, there is hardly any
premium kids content available in India, then there is a lack of character driven shows, and most of the content for
children is targeted at preschoolers leaving out a huge chunk of the audience.
Kids are increasingly consuming content online at the time of their convenience & parents are now more worried
about content quality and security , both these requirements won`t change in the upcoming decades , which are
adequately addressed via our platform.
Challenge
Funtuse" vision is to become a leading player in the children’s edutainment space , with the largest curated library
of content and a dedicated user base of millions of children. This will rival TV channels and shall make Funtuse a
necessary part of any children’s brands market strategy.

• It`s a curated platform , something that parents really value.
• Platforms such as ours has the ability to surface content that otherwise wouldn't be found.
The benefit of a platform designed for kids , is that we can build in the features specifically suited to their interests ,

The mobile applications developed by the companies for their customers are becoming more and more popular
along with the growth of number of mobile devices. In the case of catering establishments the development of their
own applications gives a possibility to take extra orders, optimize the work of the staff, promote themselves in order
to gain new customers and introduce different loyalty programs for the existing ones. The catering establishments
which have their own mobile applications have a higher percentage of regular clients and a substantial competitive
advantage over their rivals using traditional forms of marketing. Additional savings of the caterers are arising from
optimization of the staff work and product preliminary purchase and delivery processes.
Challenge
GoDining is a software as a service (SaaS) mobile platform for Android and iOS which has full functionality for the
clients of the food catering and entertainment establishments of all kinds: restaurants, cafes, diners, night clubs
and pubs. The catering establishment gets such services as table booking, menu that allows customers to pre-order
and prepay for their dishes, food delivery service, loyalty services such as coupons etc., instruments of new
customers' attraction, etc. within their own application. The design of the application is being finalized for each
specific restaurant, so it will look like an individual application developed personally for this restaurant from scratch.
However, the restaurants don't need to pay for the development as they get all the functionality on the subscription
basis.
Idea

The founders of the GoDining project have all graduated from the same faculty of Odessa National Mechnikov
University and met each other again in three years. After the meeting we have conducted an analysis of the
catering market and came to the decision that the development of mobile applications for restaurants can be a
well-timed decision. However the development from ground up costs more than the restaurant can afford. So we
came up with the idea of the platform containing all the features needed for catering establishment on SaaS basis.
GoDining project offers an elegant solution of the above mentioned problem. We provide catering establishments
with a technical possibility to get all the needed functionality without the necessity to develop an own application.
The caterer orders a subscription for the existing platform and gets a full range of instruments necessary for their
clients instantly.
Food catering is a kind of a business that appreciates individuality. Realizing this fact, we provide the
comprehensive technical engine which is common for all the applications, while the design may vary depending on
the tastes and the firm style of the restaurant or cafe. The catering establishment gets a mobile application, as
individual and complicated in terms of functionality as if it was designed from the ground up, though it costs only a
small amount of money on monthly basis.

It is estimated that each year more than 1.5 million people suffer from doctors’ handwritings and more than 7000
die. It is only in US. Just imagine what is going on in the rest of the world. In many countries (especially in former
Soviet Union or countries where compulsory medical insurance is absent) usually doctors write pharmacy
prescription by hand (it is almost impossible to understand what is written in that piece of paper as some part are
written in LATIN) in paper and nobody register this action. Many doctors do not ask patients about their other
illness or which medicine patient accepts current time. People have no idea what medicine they were written for
instance 3 months ago, who and when put diagnosis or wrote prescription, where they purchased last medicines
and etc. NO IDEA! But it is so important.

Idea

Jatinder working as a recruitment head in a mid-size company was always subject to tight and aggressive deadlines.
Half of my team's time was invested in calling candidates, interviewing them and making job offers, with the rest of
the time being spent briefing recruitment agencies, negotiating and screening resumes. This means that the time
spent both before and after the interview process significantly exceeds that of the interview stage. Another biggest
challenge was to handle SPAM. This suggested that under-qualified, under-experienced and culturally-misfit recruits
could have been avoided which could have serious implications on business growth and productivity. Jatinder met
Neha Kalra in a Startup fare in Delhi.

The majority of travel agencies, hotels, tour operators and transport providers in the Philippines are either offline or
simply rely on Facebook pages for their online presence. This is particularly true for the small-to-medium travel
business operators. Expensive IT employee or contractor costs limit those who do have their own websites to settle
for static, basic web pages which do not provide interaction with their customers nor collect data. As internet
penetration and income becomes higher in the 100 Million strong Philippine population enjoying economic growth,
the travel industry is ripe of a game-changing application that will respond to the needs of this market.
Challenge
The Nomad Travlr System is a complete front-to-back office system that handles website creation, bookings,
reservations, and customer relationship management specifically for the Travel & Tourism industry. Users like travel
agents, hoteliers, tour operators and transport providers key in packages specifying rates and availability. These are
then instantly published, ready-to-sell, on their websites.
Idea

The concept of Nomad Travlr began in 2013 while arranging a trip for our family, when my wife and I realized that
only larger and more expensive travel agents had an online presence; the smaller operators providing bargain
packages needed to be contacted by phone or spoken with in person, with documents still needing to be sent via
fax machine. This roused my interest in the potential opportunity.
Story
Nomad Travlr addresses this by providing a fully managed booking, reservations, and website creation platform
that is easy for travel agency, hotel, tour operator or transport provider staff to use. Beautifully designed websites
immediately display available packages to users, while back-office staff are alerted to new inquiries, reservations
and purchases. The solution accommodates facilities for both traditional and online payments

Currently Traditional Education does NOT provide sufficient amount of training on key skills (e.g. effective
communication, problem solving, concentration, emotional regulation, tolerance, critical thinking, team-work,
creativity and more). It rather promotes learning and knowledge but there is a huge gap between the knowledge
and practice.
It is not a new challenge and globally there is a focus on it. But the task of revolutionizing the existing education
system, overcoming its enormous inertia and natural resistance requires vast amount of time and resources, which
cannot be determined beforehand.
Challenge
PlayCraft is a starting Company aiming at securing the well-being and success of kids in life. We are doing it by
helping them from early age (4-6 years old) to develop cognitive, emotional and social skills through play. Creating
an educational game for tablets and phablets with a constantly developing narrative, where games and social
challenges are embedded.
Idea

The last couple of years, my passion was focused on three different topics - Innovations, Education and Coaching.
Deepening in these areas, working on my own improvement, I was shocked to find the gap there is between what
we need as skills in life and what we get from Traditional Education. Being a mother and following my child's
development in the kindergarten and his total unwillingness to go there I felt I deeply want to do something about
it. Thanks to my experience in working with methodologies for innovations somehow the idea came alone, taking
months to grow and take a shape. But this was it - children needed innovative, disruptive way of learning, while
having fun and developing their own skills through exploration rather than getting to learn what to do.
Story
We propose an innovative and out-of-the-box solution, which is outside and beyond the educational system:To
design, program, implement and further develop a Play & Learn Online Platform (PLOP) for training children and
youngsters between 4-15 years old on key skills. The platform will provide consistent and logically constructed
training with incorporated specific methodologies exclusively designed for learning through play.
