Fading of social cohesion in local communities. Modern technology isolates people from their local environment.

Finance Forward Academy

Financial education is still not taught on a large scale, even if it is of fundamental importance. Schools don't teach it. Universities don't teach it. The job won't teach it either. One's own financial knowledge depends heavily on influences from family and friends, and / or the resources that can be found online. But do family members and friends really know everything? Are online resources on that topic not mainly coming from the US? These are not applicable here in Europe! Does a beginner truly know how to distinguish between what is useful information and misinformation or even fake or a scheme? From what I saw in my courses, nope.

Brains meet Business

We see a challenge for entrepreneurial tech students start a start-up. They don't have knowledge in all the required fields. On the other hand, business orientated students lack the technological knowledge to find technical business opportunities. We discovered that there is a missing link between entrepreneurial minded tech students and business students to learn from each other and exchange valuable knowledge.

FutureProof

The problem I am addressing is the significant gap in understanding and implementing AI technologies among established entrepreneurs, particularly those over 40 years old with businesses generating over $1 million in revenue. Despite their success, many lack awareness of tools like ChatGPT and how these can streamline operations, cut costs, and enhance efficiency and performance. This disconnect hinders their competitive edge and growth potential in the rapidly evolving digital landscape. My service aims to bridge this knowledge gap, providing tailored AI integration solutions that transform their day-to-day business processes for the better.

Samaritance

Time is the most valuable resource each of us has in life, yet one misstep can put this time, and its quality, in jeopardy. Traffic accidents cause 20 to 50 million people annually, to face this grim reality, making it the leading cause of death for children and young adults aged 5-29 (source: WHO, 2023). In these accidents, the difference between life or death is decided by mere seconds, but many of those crucial seconds are lost due to inefficiencies in the call for and subsequent help. Individuals could find themselves injured in isolation, bystanders may hesitate to act, or critical information needed for aid might be unavailable.

Match Point

International students who aspire to participate in (especially collective) sports collectively often face challenges due to a lack of connections and networks within the local sports community. This limitation inhibits their ability to join teams or find opportunities for organized sports activities.

Awakened Society

In today's society, individuals are often conditioned to follow predetermined paths dictated by societal norms and expectations, limiting their ability to realize their full potential and live authentically. This conformity stifles personal growth and inhibits individuals from defining their own reality.

Customr AI

Traditionally they face challenges such as high waiting times, lack of personalization, and increasing costs due to the need to employ and train agents a as result of high employee turnover.
