Starting a business
- What types of business interest you?
IT business with Internet-of-Things (IOT) technology that will simplify the way we live and work.
- What plans do you have in starting a business?
My aim is to start an IoT business that integrates smart technology to make life easier for humans in the home/office automation industry. Currently, I am working on my own, but I aim to build a team that consists of software developers and electrical engineers with expertise in IoT technology and user experience design. My business model is about providing affordable, customizable smart home solutions that can integrate seamlessly with existing infrastructure. My goal is to simplify everyday tasks such as controlling lighting, temperature, and security systems, while also providing insights and analytics to help users make informed decisions about their lifestyle as well as their energy consumption. I am planning to seek funds from any investors and have a working prototype that demonstrates our innovative approach to home automation by 2027. With the growing demand for smart home solutions, I believe my business has the potential to transform the industry and improve the lives of millions of people around the world.
