Here's a brilliant notion: let college students pay back their college loans based on a percentage of their actual income. Lumni has figured out how to do this—while earning a profit for investors who make the loans—relieving students of the stress of making exorbitant loan payments after graduation and giving them some flexibility in how much they must earn.
Watch this Changemakers feature video about how Lumni does it.

As any idea gets its roots from another idea, to us that another idea was the Thought For Food Challenge’13. One pleasant morning, we all were surfing on Google, starting with as simple as Food wastage to as complicated as Sustainable Food Systems, etc; and after going through all the leading websites like fao, wfp, etc and wonderful blogs by different enthusiasts, we came across simple questions-Why do I have to go through various websites working for the same vital issues? Why aren’t some exploding-ly interesting blogs not able to reach out to people they should have? When I am ready to help, why do I have limited resources and options? Then we thought, are we capable enough to club? And the answer came YES, WHY NOT!

Elevator Pitch
The world is presently over-dependent on a few plant species. On the other hand, there are more than 7,000 plant species from the wild that could be eaten. This has lead into malnutrition problem that people face around the world. Mantasa works with edible wild plants to fight malnutrition.
Problema
Malnutrition is a complex problem hence need to be tackled in a holistic way. Malnutrition from lacking of vitamins and minerals are still affecting the world today, including Indonesia, and it has long-ranging effects on health, learning ability and productivity. Indonesia still suffer from micronutrient deficiency and this actually can be tackled with an easy and cheap way, using local resources and traditional knowledge.
Solução
Edible wild plants, although sounds very specific, actually covered many issues. Each plant brings its own wisdom and function, yet little consideration have been put into these plants and consider them as useless. Edible wild plants are nutritious and easy to find everywhere and locally and culturally accepted. Eating edible wild plants also helps to conserve biodiversity and traditional knowledge of local people. We will collecting and documenting traditional knowledge related to edible wild plants processing as well as educate people to increase their appreciation on edible wild plants and then willing to use them back in their daily life.
Exemplo
A group of village mother in Galengdowo village has long believe that getting food from market or shop is the only way to get nutritious foods for their family. Although this village is surrounded with forest and mountain, the knowledge about utilizing plants for food is almost gone for many reasons, one of it is prestige. Collecting plants from the wild for food is considered as an activity for the poor. Another reason is they believe that industrial foods offered them so much nutrients they need thanks to media advertisement. Mantasa enter this village and present wild plant's nutrient facts and also encourage the women to experiment with edible wild plants to make them into attractive foods that the children like. And it was successful.
Impacto
Impact to date: the sense of pride from local people about their local food, value added to edible wild plants from turning it into attractive food for everyone, media coverage also encourage local people to dig out more their local resources hence this has helped the biodiversity conservation and traditional knowledge are regained.
Future impact (quantitative): 1,000 edible wild plants identified from around Indonesia complete with its information about how local people use it and its nutrition facts. 200 wild food garden are set up as an educational means, information center as well as seed garden. And 5,000 from around Indonesia will be sharing with each other about their wisdom and knowledge about edible wild plants around them.
Future impact (quantitative): Increase awareness about the value of nature and traditional wisdom and also sense of pride of their food culture.
Mercado
Edible wild plants is not really an issue to look up to address malnutrition, but in the last 5 years some international movement talking about edible wild plants has grown and I've joined all the international meeting about this since I was a university student. What makes us different is because we make a holistic approach, laboratorium research to search for nutritional content, ethnobotany research to dig out traditional knowledge about plants and also education. We also do participatory research to empower people so they have power over their own knowledge and resources.
Plano de Sustentabilidade
People participation is always the main thing we want to emphasize in our solution. We give support in the form of information, trainings and workshops. Of course we need another support to organize trainings and workshops and we got it from grants, but we also have a shop where we sell food products made of edible wild plants by village women and also some merchandise, and so far it's been 2 years since we received last grant and we still exist.
Histório de Fundação
In 2002 I was doing my research project for my thesis. I studied Food and Nutrition Technology and I wanted something different to research other than industrial foods. After reading so many journals I found an old book about plants in Indonesia wrote by a Dutch. In that book I was amazed by diversity of plants that local people's use to feed themselves. Each community in each island have their own way to process some plants into food. I decided to research about mangrove based on Papuan traditional knowledge processing mangrove seeds for their staple food. Although I got some rejection from my lecturer and bad mark for that research, my passion had grown to search more about other plants and dig out their potential to combat malnutrition.

Resumo: Qual problema específico é que o seu projeto tenta resolver?
13.5 million Americans reside in areas with low access to fresh, affordable food, known as food deserts. The USDA defines these areas as census tracts where more than 33% of the population lives one mile or more from a major grocery store. In St. Louis, 14,000 children and 52,000 adults live in food deserts. The percentage of our city’s population living in a food desert if 233% higher than the national average. We have identified four central barriers to equitable food access: physical access, education about healthy eating, economic constraints, and inhibited community awareness about this issue.
Missão: O que o seu projeto faz?
St. Louis MetroMarket seeks to deploy a city bus modified into a one-aisle grocery store. Primary offerings include fresh, naturally grown fruits and vegetables, meat, dairy, and other staple foods. We are not simply aiming to alleviate symptoms of food deserts but rather affect meaningful behavioral change by breaking down the four barriers that perpetuate food insecurity.
O Modelo: Demonstre através de um exemplo específico como sua solução faz a diferença; inclua suas atividades primárias
With our mobile farmers' market, we seek to couple significant social impact with innovative financial sustainability. Using city bus modified as a walk-through store, we will sell and distribute locally sourced produce and staple goods to predetermined stops in St. Louis. The majority of our revenue will come not only from product sales, but also from membership sales. We will then reinvest in both subsidies for low-income members and in purchasing an additional 5 vehicles to expand to all 18 food deserts in St. Louis city within 5 years. We will couple increased access with practical lessons about meal planning, food preparation and nutrition.
Comunidade: Definir a comunidade que você trabalha em nome de. Que população é afetada? Há outras organizações trabalhando neste espaço?
Our central focus involves serving individuals who live in areas with low access to healthy, affordable food. In St. Louis, individuals living in these areas tend to have lower income and reduced mobility. Often, the nutritional value of their food is of less concern than simply securing food. In St. Louis, the population that we wish to serve is predominantly African American. A number of St. Louis organizations work to support these populations; however, the groups addressing food-related issues are working on hunger relief. We hope to supplement these existing efforts by focusing on access to healthy and affordable food.
História: O que inspirou o seu empreendimento? Por quê?
Co-founder Tej Azad was discussing the high rates of obesity and diabetes with his father. Unlike his father, Tej believed that macroscopic, structural issues contributed to these rates, in addition to any potential cultural or behavioral influences. That same night, Tej watched a special on “food deserts” on 60 minutes. A unique program, a Chicago-based mobile farmer’s market called Fresh Moves was profiled. From that point on, Tej has explored ways in which to bring a similar model to St. Louis.

In the next 12 months, we will define success relative to the efficacy of our pilot programs. Specifically, our ability to design, plan, and carry out the programs.
No longo prazo (1-3 anos)?
After obtaining the vehicle, we have set out specific goals. At the end of year 1 of operations (2 years from now), we should have completed 52,000 total food desert transactions, served 4,000 food desert residents, implemented a 10% subsidy for EBT users. At the end of year 2 (3 years from now), we should have added a second bus, completed 120,000 total food desert transactions, served 8,000 food desert residents, implemented a 15% subsidy for EBT users.
Como você vai medir o sucesso?
We will measure success in terms of the number of food desert transactions, food desert residents served, and the amount of EBT sales we are able to subsidize. Though corporate sales are part of our model, the true focus of our venture is to improve access to food in these chronic low access areas.

Como você vai nomear novos líderes e transferir a liderança quando os membros fundadores quer deixar o equipe?
While the venture is young, we will draw new leaders from existing volunteers and supporters. This will allow continuity of mission and vision. Due to our affiliation with both St. Louis University and Washington University in St. Louis, we will have a renewing pool of students to recruit to the venture.
As the venture matures, it is likely that the scale will require full time employees with significant management experience. As we approach this stage, we will work closely with our board to determine potential leaders.
Como você vai continuar seu projeto em seis meses ou uma vez que você gastou todo o seu capital inicial?
Our blend of corporate memberships, high-income memberships, and low-income memberships will enable the venture to remain financially sustainable following the front end capital. This is demonstrated in our financial projections.

HIV Education & Medication Adherence Application
Explique sobre o que trata a "inovação”; por exemplo, é uma idéia e/ou um modelo que você usa para concretizar uma idéia, ou talvez seria sua compreensão da população-alvo, etc?
HIV is a chronic disease requiring unremitting adherence to medication (antiretroviral therapy or “ART”). As the leading health issue confronting people living with HIV (PLWH), non-adherence costs the healthcare system between $500 and 1,500 per month per patient1, a figure much higher than the cost of non-adherence for other chronic diseases.
Multiple factors contribute to poor adherence in HIV: managing a complex regimen, medication side effects, lack of immediate evident benefit from taking daily medication, and lastly, staying positive and motivated to maintain lifelong adherence. One key challenge to ART adherence is the stigma associated with HIV; this can constrain PLWHs’ support networks and willingness to take medication as directed.
Traditional patient-provider relationships and adherence intervention models rely on face-to-face office visits. Relying on infrequent visits and ‘push education,’ these models neither provide ongoing support for the PLWH nor empower them to take proactive ownership of their adherence goals. Current mobile applications that support ART adherence rely on intrusive push reminders, and do not provide a data feedback loop to the provider.
These apps report struggling effectiveness and low uptake due to PLWH disclosure sensitivity, lack of patient retention in consistent care, and technology-only intervention points. In addition, existing apps have failed to demonstrate sustainable, scalable impact for the provider or patient populations, and linking this impact to tangible benefits within the HIV healthcare industry.
Descreva como o seu modelo de inovação é diferente de qualquer outra organização na sua área.
Technology alone cannot solve all of the ‘real and human’ problems that often drive non-adherence in HIV. However, if executed effectively, mobile technology presents a unique opportunity to help transform the traditional patient-provider relationship into an ongoing, confidential, and collaborative relationship as a foundation for increasing ART adherence.
Leveraging mobile technology to create dynamic education opportunities and positive feedback loops can establish the necessary patient empowerment to drive the core behavior change to increase and sustain adherence.

Os resultados positivos conseguidos pela Ciranda nos motivou a democratizar seus benefícios através da Oficina da Ciranda, criando um modelo gratuito às pessoas carentes, atingindo um número maior de crianças dEficientes e suas famílias.
As Oficinas foram idealizadas para permitir a apropriação das técnicas de confecção da Ciranda por todos os interessados tornando-se uma oportunidade única de envolver as famílias no processo de atendimento às necessidades de seus filhos. Os pais confeccionam a cadeira, em quanto seus filhos participam de brincadeiras inclusivas e ao final da Oficina a Ciranda é doada para seu filho juntamente com o manual de fabricação, com o qual eles poderão atuar como multiplicadores. O objetivo é atingir cada vez mais crianças promovendo oportunidades igualitárias que contribuem para diminuir as desigualdades.
Descreva como o seu modelo de inovação é diferente de qualquer outra organização na sua área.
A Ciranda, além de inovadora se comparada aos seus concorrentes internacionais, é o único produto desta categoria desenvolvido e vendido no Brasil. A Oficina, como Tecnologia Social se torna assim o único evento desta natureza com potencial para incluir todas as crianças que não se assentam autonomamente.
A Tecnologia Social gera benefícios além da participação e inclusão. A Ciranda apresenta soluções para saúde sendo um equipamento de retificação postural e no campo “sociológico” pois permite as crianças desenvolverem todas as eficiências não alcançadas devido suas limitações físicas,não interação com outras crianças agravadas pela falta de equipamentos para suprir esta carência.
Que tipo de ambiente operacional e fatores da organização interna ajudarão o projeto a ser bem sucedido?
Formalizamos um centro multidisciplinar de desenvolvimento e pesquisa que busca novas soluções para os problemas levantados, tendências de mercado, evolução da sociedade e um Conselho de Administração trabalhando em conjunto. Utilizamos um banco de dados de medidas antropométricas de 3.640 crianças por nós levantados em 28 escolas. Tabulamos as demandas advindas das dificuldades reais das quase 800 famílias participantes das Oficinas. Todos os processos são formalizados e atualizados e nossa equipe esta em constante treinamento em diversas áreas. O projeto é realizado com apoio de entidades parceiras como APAES, Prefeituras e instituições relacionadas à criança dEFICIENTE, centros tecnológicos dentre outros.
Como você garante que inova constantemente à luz de (potenciais) desafios externos, ou do seu plano de crescimento?
Temos por preceito a inovação em nossos produtos e serviços, a pesquisa e desenvolvimento tem como base o user-centred design. Equipes multidisciplinares são montadas conforme as especificidades de cada projeto, com profissionais da saúde, designers, cientistas sociais, administradores,engenheiros trabalhando de maneira transversal em cada projeto. Técnicas de estímulo a criatividade são utilizadas durante a geração de idéias para que o pacote de diretrizes não restrinja as potencialidades da equipe. Simulando o contexto de utilização, as soluções são analisados junto aos usuários finais de forma sistemática e controlada a fim de garantir uma solução eficaz e inovadora.

Sendo o objetivo da Ciranda e da Oficina da Ciranda incluir a todas as crianças que não se assentam autonomamente na sociedade, o Noisinho identificou a necessidade de se criar um modelo no qual a entrada de recursos financeiros seja constante, crescente e independente.Foi assim, que fomentou a criação de uma empresa social autônoma que têm por objetivo ser a principal mantenedora dos projetos do Instituto, através do repasse de parte do lucro financeiro obtido através da comercialização de produtos inclusivos do Noisinho,além de também impactar positivamente a vida das crianças dEficientes e suas famílias, alcançando também um lucro social.
As Oficinas da Ciranda são gratuitas,eventos itinerantes de dois dias, nos quais se brindam aos participantes alimentação, recreação, transporte, materiais/ ferramental e acompanhamento técnico na fabricação das cadeirinhas pelos pais. Simultaneamente as crianças dEficientes ou não e familiares não participantes do núcleo da marcenaria compartilham atividades lúdicas e inclusivas na Oficina Cultural sob cuidados de especialistas. Ambas Oficinas se completam, pois além da doação aos participantes da Ciranda - versão Oficina e o conhecimento, promovemos inclusão através da interação espontânea, intercâmbio de vivências, saberes e soluções compartilhados entre todas famílias e filhos, conscientizando-os da importância do papel como agentes inclusivos.
Qual é sua visão e objetivos gerais?
Nossa visão é :"Ser reconhecida como a principal provedora de produtos, serviços e tecnologias sociais em design inclusivo que geram oportunidades igualitárias para crianças dEficientes, em Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo e Brasília até 2016".
Como objetivos gerais trabalhamos para reaplicar as Oficinas da Ciranda e desenvolver novos projetos afim de impactar diretamente a vida de mais crianças e suas famílias e, indiretamente a mudança no olhar da sociedade para a dEficiência física, garantindo através da tecnologia social e do design aplicado para inclusão, condições mais igualitárias.
Qual é sua proposta de valor?
A proposta de valor vem a partir do binômio formado pelas duas instituições, o Noisinho experiente no P&D de tecnologias assitivas e sociais e a The Products detentora do conhecimento mercadológico, retroalimentando todo o processo. Ambas conjuntamente amplificam seus alcances no campo da saúde e inclusão, possibilitando o acesso as tecnologias e produtos por toda a sociedade . Engajando consumidores e mudando o foco para as Eficiências, chegando a todos os lares e espaços donde a falta de equipamentos para as crianças dEficientes físicas é notória. Nossos produtos e tecnologias sociais cumprem também o papel de influenciadores para políticas publicas.
Quem são seus clientes?
Nossos usuários finais diretos são as crianças dEficientes físicas, mas nossos clientes diferem.Para as Tecnologias sociais são as APAE´s e Prefeituras.Quanto aos produtos comerciais o principal cliente é o Governo em suas três esferas principalmente através de políticas voltadas para inclusão- ex Viver Sem Limites, O Brasil Carinhoso.Não menos importante temos a demanda privada proveniente de clínicas de reabilitação,escolas privadas e as famílias diretamente.Um cliente comum são as empresas que destinam recursos para o marketing de causa.
Quais abordagens você usa para alcançar seus clientes?
Nosso modelo dinâmico de trabalho se divide em quatro grandes grupos: mercado,visibilidade, redes e recursos.Para atingir o principal cliente – Governo, utilizamos o networking de nossas redes de contatos, amplificando suas potencialidades através da visibilidade advinda de matérias jornalísticas, prêmios,palestras etc.No primeiro momento trabalhamos com equipe própria e parceria com a empresa social Sustenta Projetos Socioeconômicos que executa o trabalho de prospecção na esfera pública. Para a Tecnologia Social trabalhamos na captação de recursos público e privado essencial para execução dos trabalhos, que serão somados com a transferência de recursos advindos dos resultados operacionais da The Products.
Quais sãos suas atividades principais?
Dentro do Instituto as atividades principais são as de pesquisa e desenvolvimento para novos produtos e tecnologias sociais além de realizar a Oficina da Ciranda. Participação em palestras e consultorias sobre tecnologias assistivas, design universal e inclusão. São de vital importância as atividades de captação de recursos através de subvenções, editais,prêmios e doações; mapeamento das crianças e famílias a serem beneficiadas e concretização de novas parcerias.No que se refere a The Products as atividades estão focadas no gerenciamento da produção, prospecção de novos clientes e a comercialização dos produtos desenvolvidos pelo Noisinho.
Quem são seus pares e concorrentes? Quais problemas esses atores poderiam representar para seu sucesso e crescimento?
Atualmente não temos concorrentes (escala industrial) no mercado nacional para a Ciranda comercial e Oficina da Ciranda, são projetos únicos na proposta de valor e metodologia.Para a Carteira Escolar Inclusiva existem produtos que possuem função análoga mas com limitações, entretanto em uma concorrência focada em custo levam vantagem sobre nosso produto.Tanto as patentes de inovação como as cartas de exclusividade chancelam nossas tecnologias. Um ponto a destacar é que ambos projetos foram desenvolvidos e são produzidos 100% no Brasil, fato que quando comparado aos concorrentes internacionais agrega valor e cria vantagem competitiva.
Quais outros desafios – individuais, organizacionais ou de meio ambiente – você atualmente enfrenta ou poderiam impedir o futuro sucesso do seu negócio e como você pretende superá-los?
A alteração no foco das políticas públicas é a principal ameaça, pois o principal "cliente" é o Governo.Nossa estratégia para minimizar os impactos, esta na velocidade comercial.Desta forma pulverizando ao máximo qualquer possível concentração além de nos tornarmos conhecidos como provedores de soluções viáveis e eficazes.De acordo com o IBGE o Brasil possui aproximadamente 1,8 milhões de crianças e jovens entre 1 a 19 anos que possui alguma dEficiência física e pouco mais da metade se encontra matriculada nas escolas.São números vultosos que nos obriga a planejar para otimizar as oportunidades e obter um crescimento consistente e sustentável.
Descreva brevemente sua estratégia de crescimento futuro
Intensificar a busca de apoio político em Brasília e Minas Gerais com o suporte de deputados que aderiram a causa, focando na captação de recursos para Oficinas e venda de produtos. Planejamos o incremento dos trabalhos em São Paulo reforçando as relações com patrocinadores privados.
Em quais dimensões de crescimento você atualmente está focando para sua inovação? [selecione todas que se aplicam]
Nova(s) região(ões), Novo(s) mercado(s)/país(es).
O que faz o seu negócio estar “pronto” para crescer?
A Tecnologia das Oficinas da Ciranda se encontra madura e pronta para ser replicada em qualquer lugar.Todos os processos e metodologias já foram testados e ajustados, estamos aptos para realizar eventos simultâneos em diversas cidades. A transferência da responsabilidade sobre os produtos para a The Products, possibilitou maior foco.
Quais são seus objetivos-chave de crescimento?
O objetivo chave é maior engajamento com as políticas e estruturas públicas, setor que além de ser parceiro importante para as Oficinas, é o maior mercado dos produtos. Desta forma conseguiremos impactar um número maior de crianças, jovens e famílias, tornando a sociedade mais justa e inclusiva.
Qual é o seu prazo para crescimento, no curto e médio prazo? Quais são as metas de crescimento e atividades-chave futuros?
No curto prazo, o Noisinho tem por objetivo o desenvolvimento de mais um produto durante os anos de 2013/14, com possibilidade de que se transforme também em uma tecnologia social além de executar 4 oficinas.
A The Products tem a previsão de comercializar 2.322 produtos com receita acumulada de US$ 800 mil no período 2013/2015 financiando diretamente 7 Oficinas impactando direta e indiretamente (colegas,familiares,professores etc) mais de 500 mil de pessoas além do público em geral influenciado pela mídia espontânea sobre o projeto e produtos.

Já foram realizadas 32 Oficinas da Ciranda em Minas Gerais, Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo beneficiando diretamente 760 crianças dEficientes físicas, 3200 familiares destas crianças que participaram ativamente da Oficina,construindo as cadeirinhas no núcleo da marcenaria ou nas atividades lúdicas no núcleo das crianças, além de pessoal contratado e voluntários, totalizando mais de 5000 pessoas que foram incentivados a se tornar agentes inclusivos. Mais ainda temos uma mídia espontânea constante devido a nosso trabalho, tanto em jornais como televisiva e digital que permite influenciar indiretamente um número vultuoso de telespectadores e leitores que nos permite estar presentes quando se trata do tema da saúde e inclusão de crianças com dEficiéncia física.
Foram entregues até o momento 180 Carteiras Escolares Inclusivas - CEI e 120 Cirandas comerciais o que representa um impacto direto em 300 usuários e impacto indireto em 6000 colegas, familiares, professores, comunidade escolar, etc.
Quais métodos de quantificação de impacto social você está usando (se alguma)?
Quantificamos como impacto direto o número de usuários de nossos produtos e as crianças beneficiadas pelas Oficinas, todo núcleo familiar que participou das mesmas, oficineiros,cuidadores,voluntários e todos aqueles que participam ativamente das Oficinas.
Como indireto para cada produto calculamos 20 crianças por sala de aula e 100 por escola além de 4 familiares.Com relação ao impacto indireto da mídia consideramos 10% do Ibope, da tiragem de jornais onde aparecemos e acesso as sites.Consideramos que são pessoas foram influenciadas de alguma forma para causa.
Sua solução poderia funcionar em outras locais ou regiões? Se sim, onde?
As Oficinas cumprem os requisitos de Tecnologia Social,podem ser reaplicadas onde houver necessidade ,os materiais são fáceis de serem encontrados e de baixo custo ,não exige instalações sofisticadas, podemos treinar mão de obra para reaplicá-la sem a nossa presença, toda metodologia esta descrita em um manual interno que servirá como guia.
As dEficiências físicas são similares em qualquer parte do Globo Os produtos foram desenvolvidos a partir de um banco de dados antropométrico de 3.640 crianças brasileiras, sendo uma amostra adequada para assegurar nossas soluções, portanto são aplicáveis para qualquer população que não tenha desvios significativos das medidas utilizadas.

O Instituto Noisinho da Silva até o momento desenvolveu seus projetos utilizando recursos advindos de emendas parlamentares e patrocínio das diferentes esferas governamentais além de concorrer em prêmios e editais.A partir de 2.012 iniciou-se a captação de recursos junto a empresas privadas, mas até o momento não representam uma parcela significativa dos recursos necessários.Em 2.013 manteremos esta linha de captação, mas estimamos uma maior participação do setor privado, pois os trabalhos de prospecção estão sendo consolidados e legitimados por nossos resultados.
A empresa The Products fundada em 2012, passa a ser detentora da utilização dos moldes,ferramental,patentes,experiência etc adquiridos durante os 10 anos de trabalho do Noisinho, trabalha com capital próprio até o presente momento sem ter assumido endividamento financeiro. Contudo esta prevista a necessidade de captar recurso no mercado financeiro quando formalizada a primeira venda a fim de equalizar o fluxo de caixa.

A principal fonte de recursos do Noisinho deverá advir da comercialização dos produtos, através da The Products, e, ocorre focada nos projetos tidos como prioritários pelo Governo em todas suas esferas, que com suas políticas de inclusão são demandantes de produtos que garantem este movimento nacional de defesa do direito a educação. A meta é que este nicho represente 70% do faturamento. Uma equipe própria realiza visitas segundo critérios econômicos geográficos com apoio da empresa social Sustenta. No mês de maio se inicia a venda direta através de E-commerce buscando com este nicho alcançar 30% das receitas.

Estratégias de filantropia que você usa
Estratégia diversificada.
Explique sua abordagem filantrópica mais detalhadamente
A missão da empresa The Products é a de ser a mantenedora de todos os projetos sociais e de novos produtos do Noisinho podendo este ponto ser interpretado como filantropia dos sócios, mas não reflete a realidade, pois foi fundada com este objetivo.Os sócios são considerados executivos não proprietários.
O Noisinho atrai verbas públicas e aportes privados devido aos resultados sociais e mudanças de perspectivas.O dEficiente físico passa a ser olhado por suas capacidades e não pelas diferenças, as famílias se tornam agentes ativos do processo e são formados multiplicadores do conceito de inclusão.Atraímos o marketing de causa.
Fale mais sobre os itens selecionados; explique como você vai manter o financiamento.
Segundo estimativas da The Products, a geração de renda será mantida através do atendimento da demanda dos produtos já desenvolvidos, Ciranda e Carteira Escolar Inclusiva. Somente no Brasil segundo o IBGE existem 1,8 milhões de jovens e crianças que necessitam destes equipamento.
No biênio 2.013/14 será desenvolvido outro produto voltado aos usuários com dEficiência e que ser transformado também em tecnologia social, mantendo toda lógica de retroalimentação do processo atualmente aplicado.
No que tange a captação de recursos externos pelo Noisinho, a exposição na mídia dos resultados alcançados consolida a eficácia e credibilidade de nossos trabalhos, respaldando nosso acesso a fontes público e privados de financiamentos, filantrópicos ou não.
A maturidade, dedicação, seriedade, experiência, repertório e resultados da equipe, adquiridas nos 10 anos de trabalhos contínuos, onde poucos se predispõe a atuar, nos habilita participar de editais e prêmios que são fontes vitais para novos projetos e ganho de escala para as Oficinas da Ciranda.

Can Game Software Multidisciplinar para o Tratamento de Crianças Autistas
Explique sobre o que trata a "inovação”; por exemplo, é uma idéia e/ou um modelo que você usa para concretizar uma idéia, ou talvez seria sua compreensão da população-alvo, etc?
O projeto consiste em um software que simula condições de jogos lúdicos, de forma que venha a intensificar o tratamento da criança com objetivo de reduzir a irritabilidade, desenvolver o cognitivo social e a comunicação pelo ato de brincar. Para tal o serviço conta com uso do Kinect onde por meio de movimento corpóreo a criança interage com o jogo que são atividades sociais, educacionais personalizadas. Ou seja o medico ou responsável organiza as atividades de acordo com a necessidade de cada criança, além disso todo processo de execução dessa atividade funciona por meio de um resgate de brincadeiras tradicionais (jogo de tabuleiro, charada e outros). No qual todo o processo é rastreável de forma que as informações coletadas entre erros e acertos sejam enviadas ao médico para análise evolutiva do tratamento. Além disso o sistema conta com aplicativos para Smartphone o que vem promover uma integração social por meio de uma agenda de atividades baseada no conceito PEC's. Todo sistema conta com um personagem escolhido pela criança que vai ajudar a mesma na realização das atividades, assim como o mesmo também apresenta recursos de tratamento das fricativas e onomatopeia muito importante para a terapia da fala bem comum em clinicas de fonoaudiologia que tratam de autismo. Todo sistema pode funcionar integrado (Kinetc + smartphone) ou individual depende da necessidade de cada criança!
Descreva como o seu modelo de inovação é diferente de qualquer outra organização na sua área.
Pelo fato de que hoje o tratamento de autismo acontece de forma isolada mecânica, no caso dos softwares não são multidisciplinar não utilizam tecnologias emergentes (Kinect, smartphone). No qual sua escolha se deu pelo fato de que, o mesmo atende diversas características da criança autista, Como também recursos de câmera para filmar a ação da criança, microfone capturar o áudio para tratamento fonológico entre outros. Permitindo que todos esses serviços estejam disponível por meio de informações coletadas para posterior analise dos médicos. Isso vem ser importante pelo fato de que é possível analisar a questão comportamental da criança na ausência do médico o que vem a contribuir para sua autonomia social.
Que tipo de ambiente operacional e fatores da organização interna ajudarão o projeto a ser bem sucedido?
Contamos com todo apoio de uma clinica de tratamento de crianças autistas, no qual permitiu que testes fossem realizados, Buscando assim aperfeiçoar o protótipo desenvolvido de forma que atenda melhor a expectativa da criança, contamos com apoio do centro de inovação microsoft o qual deu suporte técnico e infraestrutura para realização do projeto.
Como você garante que inova constantemente à luz de (potenciais) desafios externos, ou do seu plano de crescimento?
em nosso planejamento, definimos que parte do investimento e do tempo se destina a escalabilidade do produto e serviço tanto nesse projeto quanto em outros onde buscamos ver como o mesmo será em um período de 3 anos 5 anos e... A partir disso novas tecnologias, novos canais de comunicação, novas necessidades são estudadas, avaliadas, potencializadas os riscos e definido assim uma nova estratégia.
Nossa próxima meta é desenvolver um ambiente nas nuvens que atue como um ambiente virtual de diagnóstico de forma que diversos profissionais de saúde possam se comunicar, trocar experiência de forma que contribua para diagnósticos mais precisos como também contemple novas experiências, podendo pais ou familiares participarem.

O sistema consiste em um jogo (software), um aplicativo (smartphone) e um site. O site intitulado "Can Game" permite que o pai, médico da família, e outros, possam fazer o cadastro da criança e o download do aplicativo para seu smartphone. Mediante o cadastro o responsável, faz uso de uma agenda virtual com as atividades necessárias para a aprendizagem e interação social de forma independente. As atividades podem ser agendadas por dia ou por hora de acordo com o ritmo de
vida de cada criança. Todo o processo é rastreável, permitindo monitorar as atividades. Caso não seja executada a atividade em um período de três tentativas, o aplicativo por meio de um

Qual é sua visão e objetivos gerais?
Desenvolver o projeto por meio do modelo de compra cruzada, no qual será vendido licenças de uso do software, onde serão em três níveis básica intermediária e avançada. A medida que uma avançada é vendida ela financia uma básica para uma família, ONG, comunidade ... que infelizmente não tenha recursos para manter a licença.
Assim desenvolve-se um empreendedorismo social, que beneficia uma sociedade gerando receita para a star up. Dentro desse modelo ainda existe o plano de crescimento e inovação da star up!
Qual é sua proposta de valor?
Um aporte anjo de 25 mil reais
Quem são seus clientes?
Atualmente no Brasil temos 2 milhões de pessoas com autismos diagnosticadas e 70 milhões no mundo. Para tal essas pessoas necessitam de tratamento, tomando com exemplo o Brasil os profissionais que poderiam utilizar o projeto seriam: Fonoaudiólogos no Brasil - 35.953 (fonoaudiologia.org.br ) entre outros mercado em potencial: Curso oferecido de Pedagogia no Brasil - 2.268 (anped.org.br ), Associações Conhecidas no Brasil de Autismo - 78 (psiquiatriainfantil.com.br
), Clinica em Pernambuco que atende 400 crianças mes. Sendo uma pequena mostra de um mercado em expansão e de grande potencial uma vez que a curva do crescimento do autismo é ascendente uma a cada 70 crianças nasce com autismo nos Estados Unidos.
Quais abordagens você usa para alcançar seus clientes?
Utilização de canais de Comunicação (Redes sociais, email), Participação em eventos ligado: Educação, Saúde, Tecnologia, Empedrenimentos, Autismo e Parcerias estabelecidas com ONG's, Associações e Clinicas. Porém nosso melhor canal de comunicação vem a ser a repercussão que o projeto provoca nas pessoas que assistem seu funcionamento, gerando assim um network fantástico.

Sou dono e gerente do projeto;
Sou educador de escola técnica e universidade Federal;
Sou empreendedor e pesquisador por paixão.
Quem são seus pares e concorrentes? Quais problemas esses atores poderiam representar para seu sucesso e crescimento?
Não enxergamos problemas, até por que nosso projeto e inovador no segmento. dessa forma nesse mesmo segmento não temos concorrência, Apenas se configurarmos na questão de software todos são monodisciplinar e não oferecem os mesmo recursos nossos. E parcerias temos duas muito bem consolidada uma na área de saúde, uma na área tecnológica o que vem a contribuir para o bom resultado do projeto.
Quais outros desafios – individuais, organizacionais ou de meio ambiente – você atualmente enfrenta ou poderiam impedir o futuro sucesso do seu negócio e como você pretende superá-los?
Atualmente o principal entrave é recurso financeiro uma vez que estudo pesquisa teste, logisitcas ... apresenta um custo alto.

O teste foi feito com 50 crianças autistas, durante um intervalo de 6 semanas o resultado em caráter de usabilidade do sistema foi superior a 67% sob a ótica de aprendizado de acordo com TDAH foi um resultado bem promissor.Conclui-se que, através de jogos lúdicos por meio de um processo agradável, o sistema venha a promover o uso do software pela criança autista, fazendo com que essa motivação seja fundamental para a construção da aprendizagem, o desenvolvimento multidisciplinar de forma autônoma. Proporcionando uma maior consciência do que acontece em seu meio, fazendo com que o meio em que vive se torne um agente comunicador, de socialização e aprendizado. Desta forma, através deste projeto a intervenção pode acontecer em várias unidades de tratamento de autistas, bem como em casas e escolas, permitindo acima de tudo a inclusão social de crianças em ambientes comuns em suas vidas de forma diária. Esta preocupação se deve ao fato de que as alterações no ambiente para o tratamento ou a criação cenário especial são divergentes da realidade real de uma sociedade, o que não condiciona uma prática social. Com o uso do sistema, o cenário não estará presente no dia da mesma, mas na forma de jogos virtuais e aplicativos de Smartphone, sendo bem comum em crianças, adolescentes e adultos. Que por muitas vezes, essa mesma tecnologia são instrumento para a interação social. Permitindo com que a criança possa vir a fazer o seu tratamento, sem quaisquer restrições ou percepções de outras pessoas sobre o que acontece, evitando qualquer constrangim

Health is low political issue in India, poor health indicators IMR & MMR are still very high, High burden of Infectious diseases, rapidly Increasing chronic diseases and new emerging diseases like resistant TB, unregulated health care provider, high dominance of private (for-profit) healthcare provider, and very poor or negligible public health infrastructure; In India more than 75% of health care expenditure born by out of pocket lead to more than 30 million people below the poverty line every year, no preventive measures very poor immunization coverage and health literacy; It create the sense of urgency to bring some changes in a way healthcare accessed and delivered in India, I think patient education and delivery of care by innovative way is the key solutions for all this problem. empowerment of patient by providing the useful information to the patient and also working as a catalyst to improve the overall health care delivery is the key to change the behavior of population.
Descreva como o seu modelo de inovação é diferente de qualquer outra organização na sua área.
We think this is very innovative way of tracking health status and taking care of patient by using friendly technologies, actually on front end patient able to see only useful information which is very essential to improve health like tips on diet, information about the trimester,alert for time of medications, doctors visit, diagnostic test due, It's very innovative way of informing people about there health needs and also patient feels somebody is taking care for him
Que tipo de ambiente operacional e fatores da organização interna ajudarão o projeto a ser bem sucedido?
MATRUTVA our solution for safe mother and child health it's a application which placed in healthcare organization, information of patient about his/her health status during every visit is recorded using the application. then all this information is stored into our server our back-end team make possible for patient to see the essential information on his mobile or using desktop which has very different front end than the one with healthcare organization, basically our basic aim is to inform patient about what to do or don’t, we introduce patient about the trimesters with very simple and sophisticated manner, we inform her about next visit due, diagnostic test due, about diet, how to take care yourself also we have very interesting module on garbhsanskar, all this mechanism is very simple.
Como você garante que inova constantemente à luz de (potenciais) desafios externos, ou do seu plano de crescimento?
In India I won’t found this type of technology used for the maternal and child health care services there are some but not focusing on patient education, all those are simple public health solutions like in Gujarat E-Mamta which is actually only for tracking of mother and child health for the health care services, In our MATRUTVA we are addressing the basic issue of patient education and awareness, emergency management .etc. this is advantage we have today but as a entity which is interested in the improving the health of population we will ensure the new innovations and thinking in our future course.

FARMACOEDUCAÇÃO PARA TODOS
Explique sobre o que trata a "inovação”; por exemplo, é uma idéia e/ou um modelo que você usa para concretizar uma idéia, ou talvez seria sua compreensão da população-alvo, etc?
Trata-se de levar à população (crianças, jovens, adultos e idosos) informações sobre medicamentos.
Descreva como o seu modelo de inovação é diferente de qualquer outra organização na sua área.
Existem vários projetos de educação relacionados a saúde, porém a população ainda é muito carente de informações sobre medicamentos, não há conhecimento sobre o papel do farmaceutico na drogaria, sobre como tomar devidamente as medicações, sobre os riscos de automedicação, sobre como tomar anticoncepcionais de maneira segura e eficaz, sobre como e quando contactar a farmacovigilancia e como observar e relatar um evento adverso de uma medicação. Enfim, a ideia é levar conciencia sobre o universo farmaceutico de maneira simples, prática e que traga ganho de saúde a população.
Que tipo de ambiente operacional e fatores da organização interna ajudarão o projeto a ser bem sucedido?
O projeto será iniciado dentro de escolas, atingindo primeiramente os alunos, professores e pais, pois agir dentro de um ambiente educacional garante maior adesão.
Como você garante que inova constantemente à luz de (potenciais) desafios externos, ou do seu plano de crescimento?
Este projeto educacional focado em informações farmacêuticas sempre terá novos tratamentos a serem discutidos e novos medicamentos a serem explicados, a educação deve ser constante e permanente apliando cada vez mais o seu raio de ação. O plano de crescimento é treinar mais farmaceuticos palestrantes para aumentar o raio de ação para além da cidade de São Paulo.

Early Childhood Development - Scaling Reach
Explique sobre o que trata a "inovação”; por exemplo, é uma idéia e/ou um modelo que você usa para concretizar uma idéia, ou talvez seria sua compreensão da população-alvo, etc?
At least one in ten children has a developmental disability. Extrapolating from this India has 52 million children with a developmental disability. Ummeed at its Center provides transdisciplinary care for children with developmental disabilities through best practices developed in-house and recognised globally. Each year, Ummeed reaches out to over 1200 children through around 6100 visits through its Center.
The best practices developed by Ummeed also go into development of curricula of training programs which are targeted at building the capacities of community workers of other NGOs and building the capacities of NGOs working with children to address issues around Early Childhood Development and developmental disabilities. Each year, Ummeed serves an additional 25000 children and their families through these training programs imparted to other organisations.
Descreva como o seu modelo de inovação é diferente de qualquer outra organização na sua área.
Ummeed at its Center develops unique best practices which then form the basis of the curricula developed for the capacity building training programs.
In addition Ummeed develops training modules based on the needs of the organisation as assessed by Ummeed. The training modules are exhaustive in nature and comprise of both theory and practicals at the field level.
Que tipo de ambiente operacional e fatores da organização interna ajudarão o projeto a ser bem sucedido?
Ummeed at its Center provides transdisciplinary care for children with developmental disabilities through best practices developed in-house and recognised globally.
Ummeed has a team of highly trained and skilled professionals providing care and expertise to Ummeed's activities.
Como você garante que inova constantemente à luz de (potenciais) desafios externos, ou do seu plano de crescimento?
Ummeed's greatest challenge currently is the immaturity of the market and understanding of the need of early childhood development among organisations working with children and organisations working in the area of disabilities. Ummeed is now developing a competent team to create the necessary environment and build the "market" to be able to scale up its reach in the field of early childhood development.
Ummeed has also developed short term training modules to meet the challenges of manpower stretched organisations who may not be in a position to spare their team for the comprehensive training programs.

Por favor, descreva sua solução mais detalhadamente
Almost 15% of the children in India have or at risk of a Developmental Disability.It is a known fact that early detection and care especially during the age of 0-6 years helps a child attain his/her maximum potential. In India almost 65% of the population lives in the rural areas which would mean that around 35 million children who have or are at risk of a developmental disability, are from these areas and hail from low income families, with little or no access to information and resources on issues around Early childhood Development. Ummeed through its training programs builds the capacity of organizations working in these under-served communities to work in prevention & mitigation for children and families at risk while building resources for the care of children with a disability.
Qual é sua visão e objetivos gerais?
Ummeed helps children with disabilities or at risk of disabilities attain their full potential and be included in society. Ummeed endeavors to scale up its training programs and using this vehicle be able to reach out and change the lives of 40,000 children each year, by 2018.

Resumo: Qual problema específico é que o seu projeto tenta resolver?
My Venture addresses the issue of Autism Spectrum Disorder, which disables children all around the world. The way this problem will be addressed is through many different methods, such as fundraisers and volunteering at schools for children with Autism. Raising money towards Autism research helps, and so does helping individual children with autism. A way to help children with Autism, as I have found, is to use music as therapy for these children. I have played my instrument for children at a school, and it allows them to calm down or even to focus. My efforts have gone further than this, and I have donated iPods which are used for music and for audio clips used for learning. In the future, I look forward to gaining more technological devices to donate such as iPads and other devices.
Missão: O que o seu projeto faz?
My venture is geared to help children with Autism in any way possible. It will raise money towards Autism Research, the building of schools, and the supplying of school materials. As well as this, my venture stresses an importance on volunteer work, and it is crucial that I gain volunteers that are willing to help a child with Autism. The musical aspect of my venture will also be important, as I will continue to search for others who are musically inclined to volunteer at schools. As well as volunteering at schools, I will make it a goal to host benefit concerts, and to play at charity events for Autism. Although music is an important part of my venture, it is not the only part, and I also see an importance in allowing children with Autism to receive the best education that they can possibly achieve. I will do this through using raised money to buy supplies, help renovate and build schools, and create the opportunity for new technological advances at this school.
O Modelo: Demonstre através de um exemplo específico como sua solução faz a diferença; inclua suas atividades primárias
Ways that my venture will make a difference have a larger scale of impact, and a smaller, more concise scale of impact. What I believe to be the larger scale is the raising of money towards Autism research and the raising of money to benefit schools for children with Autism. These two ideas will be important, for once I raise enough money, I will be able to donate this money to more and more locations, therefore spreading my venture. On a smaller scale, volunteer work will also be one of the activities in my venture. Although volunteering at a school for children with Autism will not raise money to find a cure, it will positively affect the life of the child, who needs as much help as he or she can get when it comes to an education. As I have previously addressed, music will also be an important part of my venture. Whether it is through volunteering musicians visiting nearby schools, or benefit concerts, music is a crucial part of my venture. It allows for the raising of money, but also allows children with Autism to experience music while they are being educated. It is said that music is therapeutic to these children, and it allows them to focus, therefore helping them learn.
The Community: Define your community, local or international, that you will work on behalf of. What population is affected? Are there other organizations working in this space?
Initially, my goal will be to work on behalf of the area around me, and let my venture grow from there. The entire population should be aware of Autism, and by raising money for the cause, I will also be able to spread the world to communities around mine. As these communities become more aware, I am hoping that they will spread their knowledge to others. As this knowledge is spread, my venture will also be spread further, until it has reached a nationwide level. This may be wishful thinking, but I believe that with the help of difference makers around the country, I will be able to accomplish this, especially considering that Autism is an important topic that should be known about by anyone.
História: O que inspirou o seu empreendimento? Por quê?
The way I first heard about Autism was through a video that was sent to my email. This video affected me, and I thought that with my musical ability and willingness to help, I could make an impact somehow in the community. As I began raising money by playing violin at events, I discovered that there were other ways that I could still help the cause. I began donating the money I had raised to a nearby school, and after speaking with the school, they believed that I should go to the school to play for the children there. Going class to class, I would play music for the children, and I could see how it positively affected them. From that point on I have continued to find other methods of benefitting Autism research, and the education of children with Autism
What is your long-term vision for your Venture?
The long term vision of my Venture is to eventually see my venture spread outside of my community to around the nation. This way, people around the nation will raise awareness for Autism, donate money, and volunteer at schools in their areas. As my Venture spreads, I would also like any others to pitch in with their own ideas for ways to help children with Autism. This way, we will be able to find more and more ways to raise money, volunteer, or do any other activities that may benefit the cause.

The goal I wish to accomplish in my first year is to raise awareness in my community and hold many fundraisers to gain money for local schools. Another thing I wish to do is to host benefit concerts for Autism. While spreading the word, I also would like to search the community for others who are willing to volunteer at local schools. I don't wish to spread my venture too wide the first year, and I would rather establish a large amount of success locally before venturing out further.

Como você vai medir o sucesso?
I will measure success not by the amount of money I raise towards my cause, but by the amount of people which my venture affects. Although it is only aimed towards helping children with Autism, I believe that my venture will allow communities around the nation to come together in order to fight for a common cause.
Why?
I believe that money is important, but should not be the critical point of whether something is successful or not.

Campamento Urbano: modelo franquiciable de atención a niños con sobrepeso y obesidad
Explique sobre o que trata a "inovação”; por exemplo, é uma idéia e/ou um modelo que você usa para concretizar uma idéia, ou talvez seria sua compreensão da população-alvo, etc?
"Campamento Urbano" es un centro integral de tratamiento de sobrepeso y obesidad tipo 1 dirigido a niños de 6 a 12 años. En este espacio se les da atención nutricional, médica y psicológica para que logren bajar de peso, así como educación para que puedan adoptar estilos de vida más saludables y evitar que vuelvan a tener el problema. El tratamiento se lleva a cabo de manera lúdica, haciéndolo más fácil para los niños.
Los programas duran de 6 a 24 meses y requieren que los niños asistan por medio día, tres veces por semana. Se proveen dos comidas diarias y los niños también cuentan con un espacio para hacer sus tareas. Cada centro tiene la capacidad de atender a 50 niños de manera simultánea, con dos turnos.
El modelo es franquiciable, por lo que se garantiza su replicabilidad. Asimismo, combina una fórmula que involucra a sociedad civil, industria privada y gobierno, innovando en el área de alianzas multisectoriales.
Descreva como o seu modelo de inovação é diferente de qualquer outra organização na sua área.
A nivel de atención, el tratamiento es lúdico y no se percibe como una "clínica", haciéndolo más efectivo para los niños.
En cuanto a modelo de negocios, es franquiciable y se puede contar con la flexibilidad de situarse en zonas de diverso nivel socioeconómico, adaptando las tarifas que tienen que pagar la familias.
Que tipo de ambiente operacional e fatores da organização interna ajudarão o projeto a ser bem sucedido?
Los centros son operados por especialistas en obesidad infantil. Para la estandarización de procesos, se cuenta con estrictos manuales operativos y clínicos que guían el correcto funcionamiento de los centros, los cuales han sido desarrollados por expertos en sistemas de franquicias sociales, así como médicos especializados en el tratamiento de estos padecimientos. Entre los manuales se encuentran el de recursos humanos, códigos de ética, publicidad y tratamiento clínico.
Como você garante que inova constantemente à luz de (potenciais) desafios externos, ou do seu plano de crescimento?
Invertimos en investigación y damos puntual seguimiento a los cambios en el panorama del sobrepeso y la obesidad, logrando comprender los nuevos desafíos y así haciendo las adaptaciones correspondientes. Buscamos poder tener presencia en las zonas donde los índices son más elevados.

What are your organization's top three priorities in the next year?
In the next year, Move This World's top priority is to hire two full-time leadership positions to help to lead programmatic growth and operational strategy. These full-time positions will provide current staff with the support, resources, and expertise for Move This World to scale and enter new markets. Our second priority is to grow the number of classrooms we have in current program hubs. Thirdly, Move This World would like to pilot its special needs curriculum and identify potential new product lines in the next year.

Peer Benchmarking Analysis
Based on your first choice of the eight technical categories you selected above, what is your specific project need? Please be specific!
In February of 2013 Move This World underwent a re-brand to become the organization it is today. Formerly known as Dance 4 Peace, Move This World leadership decided to pursue a re-branding process to find a name that truly articulated our use of innovative practice using creative movement for empathy education. We also wanted to find a name that embodied our growth potential, vision, and mission more fully. While we feel confident that we have found that name in Move This World, we are working to embody the new brand across the organization and realize our growth potential not only through our current curriculum and training programs, but also through new product lines to distinguish ourselves from peers and become the standard among organizations offering innovative empathy education programs.
1.
Move This World prioritizes flexibility and responsiveness to the needs of partners, customizing programs and arrangements.
2.
Move This World prioritizes open communication between partners and MTW staff, ensuring we are available to partners.
3.
Move This World prioritizes cultural awareness, ensuring our programs are appropriate for diverse contexts.
Will support from American Express be focused on your organization overall or a specific product/service? Please describe.
Support from American Express will be focused on Move This World as an organization overall in order to maximize the impact of the support. In order to work on our strategic positioning as an organization, we must pursue processes that foster cohesive branding and messaging strategies, and help us situate ourselves in the civil society space in relationship to peer organizations.
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.
Move This World has worked with outside consultants before, including with consultants who advised us throughout the re-brand process. We have also worked with consultants to evaluate the efficacy and growth potential of Move This World's programs in certain markets. While individual staff members have dedicate some time to considering branding and messaging and a part-time Communications and Strategy Specialist is a crucial member of our team, outside facilitation will prioritize branding and messaging for all staff to ensure consistency and confidence.

Qual foi o impacto da sua solução até hoje?
The MTW curriculum transcends countries, socioeconomic differences, languages and cultures; it is being adapted and implemented in diverse communities worldwide. In the fall of 2011, aggregate data MTW collected indicated an 80% increase in student positive empathetic reactions to seeing an isolated peer after exposure to a semester of our programming. When given a situation involving bullying, there was a 48% decrease in violent responses. Survey questions to MTW students testing for appreciation of diversity showed a 15% increase in listening to others, 30% increase in liking group work, and 25% increase in likelihood to try new things. Suspension data in one school declined from 53 incidents to 16, after one semester of Move This World programming in several classrooms.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
Based upon our strategic scaling model and business plan, Move This World will have an annual budget of $1.7 million in five years and will have worked with 55,000 youth and educators. Move This World has already shown success at scaling from one classroom in Bogota, Colombia to serving over 9,000 individuals in 22 cities on four continents. Support from American Express will enable Move This World to take the next step in becoming the standard bearer in innovative empathy education practice. Our programs are already sought after by a diversity of partners, and undergoing a peer benchmarking analysis will empower us to identify growth areas and customize product lines based upon the market need and feedback from partners.

Estabelecido (estágios anteriores completos e com sucesso comprovado)
What problem is your organization committed to solving? In particular, share what is innovative about your approach.
In conjunction with existing resources, Exeko relies on cultural and intellectual mediation as motors of social change and vectors of citizen participation, prevention of crime, employability, identity reinforcement, school perseverance, social diversity. Its programs promote creativity as a measure of consciousness-raising and mediation but also as a strategy amongst dysfunctional youth.

Opportunity Analysis
Based on your first choice of the eight technical categories you selected above, what is your specific project need? Please be specific!
Exeko is now entering a new and major stage of its development. It is confronted with marketing challenges due to the diversity of its clients, fields of interest and aspiration towards Pan-Canadian deployment (begun). Its networks of sponsors has multiplied tremendously over the last few years and its capacity to communicate a clear message is essential to set up its various development plans (implantation strategies, financing, greater public awareness, positioning on the Market)
Its needs revolve mainly around revising the Exeko brand and signature while maintaining a clear message for all its different target groups.
Exeko’s development has led it to meet partners from all fields. It is seeking to update its image while preserving its dynamic and legitimate work ethics.
Exeko is presently developing a larger audience. Its message must be perfectly clear both to the public as to their participants (4500 people in need )and actors in the field.
Very few organizations such as ours have made it on the market. We intend to continue innovating and creative branding and development tools according to their contemporary image in the spheres of creative and market economy.

Non-biased and complimentary dialogue respecting individual skills
2.
Creativity and Communication

Humane exchange above all, according to Exeko value
Will support from American Express be focused on your organization overall or a specific product/service? Please describe.
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.
Yes, however Exeko has not called upon consultants to this effect. Exeko’s branding has been established internally by its team, stemming from the Arts, Engineering, Marketing and Commerce until now.
On the other hand, Exeko is presently working with consultants as to the creation of SWOT, Pan-Canadian Development Strategy, IT, economic, social, cognitive and inclusive impact evaluation of its different projects and is therefore very familiar with the former.

We won Best Song at the Hollywood Music in Media Awards, received a fantastic review from Billboard Discoveries, and were chosen to be in the Grammy and Oscar gifts to the nominees. The University of BC Education Department helped us develop lessons and activities for our series of books (K to Grade 3.) We test marketed The Magic of Think™ with teachers, homeschooling mothers, and grandparents. The testimonials have been phenomenal. The children in both public and private schools have been captivated by the stories performed “in character.” The children love the music and listen to it day and night. We have also been receiving enthusiastic reviews from parents with Special Needs and Gifted children. Children open up on issues that have not been discussed before. Eg. being bullied.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
Receiving support from American Express would greatly assist us in achieving our goal of reaching and helping every child in the world. Rich or poor, regardless of color or nationality. Long term, stronger children become stronger adults, who will be more equipped to make the world a better place.

Every year in the UK, over 250,000 accepted applicants miss out on higher education due to lack of funding. This results in social immobility, hinders innovation and economic growth and yields a body of professionals and leaders that represents but a small fraction of the UK's population.

Based on your first choice of the eight technical categories you selected above, what is your specific project need? Please be specific!
It would be of great value to us to receive help from high-calibre consultants and executives so that we may better articulate what we can do for our target groups and to relate to our stakeholders more effectively.
We have different stakeholders groups: we attract students directly but also through partnerships with universities (which help us provide students with additional support). We must rally partner organisations that have an interest in funding students and help students attract funders.
For instance, we make it possible for students to borrow from their own friends and family, university alumni, etc. to cover the cost of their education. This should not be described as an investment, but as a worthy allocation of "play money", as there is always a risk of default. We need to articulate that clearly, but also, compellingly.
We also help universities optimise and leverage scholarship funds. Through us, universities can turn scholarships into unsecured loans that can be repaid when and if the student is able, which recycles their funding so that it may benefit a student forever, turning one-off hand-outs into sustainable funding that builds up over time.

Allocation of resources to deliver results
Will support from American Express be focused on your organization overall or a specific product/service? Please describe.
Support from American Express could help us tailor our general communication but also design specific communication for our services: crowdfunding for students, "recyclable" scholarships and recruitment solutions.
It would also help us design a CRM approach to manage our relationships with institutions (universities, charities, businesses) and individuals (students, prospects, StudentFunder alumni).
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.
StudentFunder has not received support from professional consultants as such.
However, as part of Oxford's Skoll Centre's Emerge Venture Lab and the Startup Leadership Programme, StudentFunder has received plenty of advice, support and mentorship. Business in the Community (BITC), YPO and Hogan Lovells have generously provided support as well.

Quantitative:
Since October 2012, StudentFunder has helped two students fund their studies, two more are in the process and we will process 100 applications over the course of April for our first partner university and help 9 more students at a second partner university.
Each postgraduate student generates £5,900 per year in the economy (net, averge, according to the LSE).
Qualitative:
Our first student was fell into hard times. Abandoning his studies would have dragged his family into poverty; but we turned that around.
Two of the students supported by StudentFunder are peaceworkers Kivu, DR of Congo, helping end a conflict that has claimed over 6 million lives.
Another one of our students is creating a student-funding initiative to fight brain drain in Puerto Rico.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
Support from American Express would help us strengthen our communication and relationships with customers and partners to evolve into a growth venture that can market beyond a closed pilot, serving hundreds of students by year two.
That vintage of students alone could add around £350k to the UK economy each year! (not to mention the impact that our students would have through their careers).
StudentFunder would then grow to serve thousands!

Students login to Qlovi for an average of 20 minutes per session. And weekly average users are totally at least 2000. The schools we are working with have experienced academic growth larger than existed before Qlovi was in place. A closer dissection of usage and academic achievement is under way.

We admire the dedicated example and digital track record of American Express and think of no better partner for this very focused exercise. Reaching more parents/students with good marketing will directly translate into higher literacy outcomes across high-need and targeted communities. We are ready for the challenge and partnership to begin.

First we need key skill sets filled in the areas of mobile development, design and game/education theory. I see a staff of 4 being fully capable of building the initial 2013 apps that will prove these strong concepts with real and profitable products. With a small core team of awesome designers and developers, we will have all the tools necessary to build and iterate on some really amazing apps that will inspire young minds. We already have a great team of designer, developer and founder/executive, now we need a gaming and learning thinker and funding to support the staff full time to really kick things off.
Our first play + learning concept, Secret Agent Alpha, is a game that is oriented toward building strong penmanship, alphabet and word learning skills, as well as potentially foreign language learning eventually as we expand the concept. We hope the principles of competition and rich gaming based character shorelines will help children learn key skills while having a blast doing it.
2.
High standards and expectations on delivery

A deep belief in play/gaming as a vehicle for learning

Organization overall. We would need infrastructure support, marketing support, and all the relationships that a startup needs to fully succeed. We have a very agressive and serious goal, and we don't want to do this lightly or timidly, so we need exposure to the best people in the areas of gaming, learning and mobile design/development.
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.

We have had 92,000 paid downloads for our existing app My Story which is a rich story telling app that allows children in K-8 to tell their stories using rich drawings, pictures and audio and publish their books as assignments or to share with their family and friends. This app is very well received in classrooms, and we hope to build on those relationships as we move further into the concepts of play + learning. My Story also makes us profitable, which is a great place to be compared to other startups who have to raise seed or angel level funding first.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
We feel that with support from American Express, we will be able to fund the design and development of our first of two play based learning apps for 2013. It will not provide all of the funding needed, but the exposure and networking support will actually give us a lot to work with that we would otherwise have to build manually. The funds will also help pay for some expert consulting on the concepts of play within gaming so we can put a solid foundation behind what we're going to develop and put on the App Store.

We are at a crisis point in education today. Many teachers and children are feeling disconnected, stressed out and unmotivated. The pressures brought on by the new mandated instructional practices from both Federal and State Departments of Education are felt by all members of the school community. There is a decrease in pro-social skills and an increase in anti-social behaviors. Most answers to this problem focus on programming. My approach focuses on building a new consciousness within the school community.

The School of Belonging Learning Institute (SBLI), has evolved over the past 30 years into a unique and innovative culture building process. Institute creator David A. Levine has created authentic learning experiences which facilitate self-reflection and behavior change through his music, cutting edge books, meaningful dialogue, applied skills, and classroom demonstrations. The SBLI process has consistently created systemic transformational learning which has proven to be life changing for many teachers, leaders, children and parents. David wants SBLI to be a robust process that will make significant social change in our schools and communities. In the past year, he has established relationships with several foundations who are devoted to social and emotional learning and he is currently negotiating with school districts from a variety of socio-economic realms. As creator of SBLI, David needs help in branding his vision and marketing his work in such a way that schools from all over the world, who are in need of creating caring and empathic learning communities, will want to implement The School of Belonging Learning Institute for their teachers and students .

I would like support in my organization overall. I have been working on my own since 1992. After meeting several colleagues through Ashoka, I realized that I needed to scale up my work to make a greater difference in the world. Creativity, passion and belief do not always equal a sound business plan and that is what I need assistance with. In the past few weeks, I have been approached by three different school districts looking to establish a long-range working relationship with The SBLI process, and I now see the need to refine my focus on marketing, capacity building. and service delivery.
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.
I have always worked on my own, often thriving with minimal marketing or a strategic plan. Whenever I thought of scaling up, I wasn't sure how to do it as my work was so uniquely connected to my personality and expression. Last October while speaking with the Novo Foundation about social and emotional learning, I was told me how much in alignment they were with me but that I needed to move my work from being "boutiquey" to being "robust". This wasn't exactly a business consultation but it did help change my thinking in terms of what was needed to scale up The School of Belonging process.

Student bullying is epidemic across industrialized nations worldwide, involving approximately 30% of students. It causes its targets physical, cognitive and emotional distress, marginalizes diverse youth and leads its targets to commit suicide and school shootings. Unless schools intervene promptly and effectively, the result is student disengagement and long-term mental health challenges, which impact school performance and impede students from ever reaching their lifetime potential.

Scaling solutions to bullying
Selecione o estágio que melhor se aplica à solução
Crescimento (seu piloto está em andamento e começa a se expandir)
What problem is your organization committed to solving? In particular, share what is innovative about your approach.
Student bullying is epidemic across industrialized nations worldwide, involving approximately 30% of students. It causes its targets physical, cognitive and emotional distress, marginalizes diverse youth and leads its targets to commit suicide and school shootings. Unless schools intervene promptly and effectively, the result is student disengagement and long-term mental health challenges, which impact school performance and impede students from ever reaching their lifetime potential. Students who habitually bully tend to engage in delinquency, alcohol abuse, anti-social behaviours and crimes in to their adult lives. Unchecked, bullying creates unsafe school environments and leads to greater violence in our communities.
What are your organization's top three priorities in the next year?
I. Deliver the No Bully System to schools most at need across the United States. We will create a team of No Bully trainers available to train school districts how to implement the No Bully System starting in the Western US States.
II. Create strategic partnerships to deliver the No Bully System at low or zero cost to schools. In order to scale our program rapidly, No Bully will secure corporate sponsorships and foundation funding for No Bully trainers to work with schools at low or zero cost.
III. Establish the No Bully System as the best practice in how to respond to student bullying. In the age of evidence-based programs, we will demonstrate the success of the No Bully System through gathering and publishing quantitative evidence of its effectiveness.
Need #1
Staffing Capabilities
Need #2
Performance Management
Based on your first choice of the eight technical categories you selected above, what is your specific project need? Please be specific!
No Bully is poised for growth. Six months ago we had just one employee - the ED - and operated our trainings through independent contractors. Now we have three employees, having brought on a development director and trainer. Our goal over the next twelve months is to increase our staff to eight.
In order to create a high level and effective team, our project need is to create a detailed staffing plan that defines how we will advertise, recruit, interview and create job descriptions for new and existing hires.
If the coaching process can extend to two needs/goals, we would highly value American Express guidance on performance management as we move from a virtual office to a physical office in San Francisco.
Will support from American Express be focused on your organization overall or a specific product/service? Please describe.
This project will review all our staffing needs and in that sense will cover the whole organization. Here is our staffing plan - the full team that we are aiming to create over the next twelve months.

Qual foi o impacto da sua solução até hoje?
Over the past thee years we have trained educators at nearly two hundred California schools in the No Bully System and so helped support bully-free campuses for an estimated 60,000 students. Two independent studies have shown that educators trained by us are solving incidents of student bullying in at least 80% of cases, and this held true three months later, making No Bully one of the most effective strategies available for ending student bullying.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
Support from American Express will enable us to scale up our impact to reach more schools. Our goal is to partner in depth with a hundred schools over the next school year and train them how to implement and sustain the No Bully System long-term. Our three year goal is to expand our work from California to the East Coast, hire more trainers and increase our impact to two hundred schools a year. The project impact is preventing the lives lost or forever changed by student peer bullying.

Unlike children from more affluent communities, children who live in low-income neighborhoods don't have much access or exposure to a wide variety of professionals. Therefore, they have a limited vision of the careers towards which they can strive. This career day program seeks to change that by helping such children, at an early age, identify what they love to do and explore careers that reflect their passions. Students have an individual interview yearly, during which they tap into their interests, learn about 40-50 careers, and then choose two careers to learn about for Career Day.

Students have an individual interview yearly, during which they tap into their interests, learn about 40-50 careers, and then choose two careers to learn about for Career Day. By 5th grade, each student has had 7 interviews and met 14 of these role models, experiences which will be invaluable to them as they make choices in their adult lives.
What are your organization's top three priorities in the next year?
Business Plan
Creation of Accountability and Evaluation tools
Replication of the program in other schools.
Need #1
Peer Benchmarking Analysis
Need #2
Customer Relationships
Based on your first choice of the eight technical categories you selected above, what is your specific project need? Please be specific!
Need #1. I need to develop tools to evaluate the effectiveness of the program short-term and longitudinally. My research on the web cannot find a single child-centered program geared to the individual elementary school student. Consequently, I have no standard, accepted tools of measurement for comparison. I need to build measurement standards, not just for accountability to funders, but because the feedback will help me to build in a continuous process of improved effectiveness. #2. I have chosen to serve a NYC public school in the poorest Congressional district in the country. The children's education is compromised, as school staff, students and their families feel pressure to test well in order to give the school a good performance grade to avoid being shut down. The pressure to meet immediate testing needs deters administrators from investing their limited time on extra non-academic programs such as mine, that focus on long-term career goals.We need a strategy to become more effective in working within this stressed educational system and in getting administrators and teachers to “buy in” to the notion that our program can be complementary to their mission.
3.
Empowering individuals through the finding and recognition of their strengths.
Will support from American Express be focused on your organization overall or a specific product/service? Please describe.
I will need overall help in the following areas but can choose just one to focus on during the internship. I would like help with any one of the following areas: the creation of a business plan, create accountability measures, the replication of our program to another school and with fund raising.
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.
I have not worked on any of the above areas (except for creating accountability measures) with an objective outside consultant. I met with a researcher for a year the first year we were up and running in 2009, but was not convinced that he had a clear understanding of the programs objectives.

1.
Students will have access to community role models who discuss the discovery of and educational path towards their career.
2.
Students will use the skills they learned from the program to make informed and meaningful career choices as adults.
3.
Replication of the program in other schools to create a national program.
Qual foi o impacto da sua solução até hoje?
1.) A large number of students report in post career day interviews that they can see themselves having the career they learned about on Career Day. Students are overwhelmingly enthusiastic about attending career day and love being interviewed. The Principal said it is their favorite day of the school year. 2.) Children often come to the interview with preconceived notions about the careers they would like to learn about but once they have tapped into their talents and passions and learn about a wide variety of careers, their choices often change. We have not seen the long term effects of the interview process but would like to create a longitudinal measure of the effectiveness of our intervention/interview. 3.) I have not begun working on a solution as of yet.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
I am hoping that the consultations will help me to see if the post career day interview is a good measure of the effectiveness of the program. I am hoping that I can secure an effective strategy to work with very stressed clients, (the NYC public schools) to facilitate a greater collaboration in my present school and in future schools.

Kinderchat is dedicated to fostering a global dialogue among the Early Childhood community. Educators are often stressed and isolated both from each other and the larger educational community. Kinderchat creates a joyful global community space for those working with Young Children.
Open, constructive and engaging dialogue is a simple and yet continually overlooked strategy for improving education, schools and the teaching practices of those working with Young Children. Through Kinderchat, Early Childhood educators have the opportunity to connect with other innovative and creative educators, researchers, parents, companies and policy makers, keeping our vibrant community at the cutting edge of innovative educational practices and Professional Development.
What are your organization's top three priorities in the next year?
1. Formalize operations, grow and develop more positions and responsibilities within the community, seek financial support and advice to insure stable future of the community.
2. Expand, deepen and strengthen connection to more in the Early Childhood community, including policy makers, organizations and the public.
3. Continue to develop and support our teachers. Professional Development credits for participants, develop teacher leaders and localized chapters, continue to connect classrooms through high and low tech, increase overall reach and impact.

We need help understanding the reach of our organization and the challenges we face as we move forward. We need help to identify the strengths and weaknesses of our community and where we can improve and further scale the project. We need help creating specific roles that adress the needs of the community and a set of outside eyes to help us think about where we realistically want to be in five or ten years both financially and structurally.

Support from American Express would be focused on the overall organization of Kinderchat. Working with a company like American Express would be more than we could ever have dreamed of for this labor of love we call Kinderchat!
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.
While we have been operating for three years, have stayed true to our goals and continue to grow at exponential rates, we haven't received any formal advice or structural help from any organization or company. Our mentors and friends include iEARNUSA and various individual researchers and educators. We work to continuously craft the community under the "form follows function" mantra. Kinderchat is a grass roots, flexible, creative, dynamic and continually evolving community, firmly committed to the structure and function of an organic network.

Qual foi o impacto da sua solução até hoje?
Increased job satisfaction among Early Childhood Educators, a deep sense of community leading to global classroom exchanges among classrooms of Young Children. We've developed teacher leaders and community moderators who give passionate testimony that the community has revitalized their teaching, saying they couldn't imagine us not being there. In three years, we have become a key hub for those in the Early Childhood community, creating global databases of Early Childhood blog directories and an accessible library of resources for the public.
We've hosted Raffi and Ellen Galinsky, been mentioned in Forbes magazine, academic publications, research papers and community directories. Kinderchat is considered an outstanding example of an educational online community.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
Streamline "work flow" and know what jobs are of high priority and how and where to focus efforts moving into the future. It's hard to choose only two of the supports as there is a little of each that would be incredibly helpful! I am just grateful to have the chance to apply to work with American Express and to dream of the possibilities of making this labor of love something that will live into the future for teachers, classrooms, young children and the public.

Young people have great potential to become life-long change agents after a single successful experience. Yet many lack the training and tools to get their first idea off the ground. Further, university students, often inspired from travel abroad, long to create meaningful impact in the world around the issues they are most passionate about. So called "Do-It-Yourself" philanthropy is often impulsive, conducted without alignment with a local community's needs or participation, and thus unsustainable.

Young people have great potential to become life-long change agents after a single successful experience. Yet many lack the training and tools to get their first idea off the ground. Further, university students, often inspired from travel abroad, long to create meaningful impact in the world around the issues they are most passionate about. So called "Do-It-Yourself" philanthropy is often impulsive, conducted without alignment with a local community's needs or participation, and thus unsustainable. Global Grassroots' uAcademy for Conscious Change integrates mindfulness and conscious leadership practices with social entrepreneurship skills in a 40-hr social venture incubator. The uAcademy catalyzes compassionate and sustainable ventures designed and led by students here or abroad.
What are your organization's top three priorities in the next year?
We have piloted our first uAcademy program for 22 students at Dartmouth College in 2012 and will begin a second program at the University of Virginia in May. Our top priority is to scale our uAcademy program as an earned-income strategy for our organization by: (1) building a client-base of 3-5 new schools across the US university market, (2) better packaging, pricing and positioning the uAcademy for greater economies of scale as we establish the infrastructure to support the program long-term, and (3) building visibility and branding around the program and its impact on youth's capacities as empathetic and conscious change agents.
Need #1
Consumer/Audience Acquisition
Need #2
Message & Brand Strategy
Based on your first choice of the eight technical categories you selected above, what is your specific project need? Please be specific!
We need assistance building a client base of university or institutional clients that are willing to partner with us to bring the uAcademy to their campuses. The ideal partnership would (a) deliver revenue for our general operations on a fee-for-service basis, (b) enable us to offer a permanent program annually, such as a 1-2 week social venture incubator over each January term or spring break, (c) collaborate in conducting monitoring and evaluation or academic research on the individual and societal impact of the student ventures and test our metrics for social-emotional learning + conscious change leadership, and (d) raise visibility for and validate our efforts to advance a more conscious approach to international development and social entrepreneurship.
1.
Alignment of or shared missions to guide the collaboration.
2.
Willingness to experiment with and then thoroughly evaluate and learn from innovative approaches.
3.
Authentic communication and desire to achieve mutually beneficial outcomes.
Will support from American Express be focused on your organization overall or a specific product/service? Please describe.
Support from American Express would be focused on the uAcademy, one of several Global Grassroots programs that support grassroots change agents globally. The uAcademy is our primary US-based program, which adapts our proven curriculum that we have been using in Africa for 7 years with undereducated women survivors of war. The uAcdemy was designed to support young people in developing themselves as conscious agents of change, while earning income for our developing country work and bringing greater academic research, visibility and validation of all our programs.
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.
We have worked in a limited capacity with consultants to help us develop a general fundraising strategy and to identify strategic partnerships. We have also worked with graduate students from MBA programs and PR programs who have offered pro-bono consulting over an academic term. However, due to budgetary limitations, we have never had the opportunity to work with a professional consulting team or firm to help us fully develop these interest areas. Given the uAcademy is a brand new endeavor, we have not yet had the opportunity to pursue a client acquisition, branding or scale strategy.

Qual foi o impacto da sua solução até hoje?
Our Academy for Conscious Change in Africa (Rwanda, Uganda and Liberia) has trained over 400 change agents, who are operating or in the process of developing 47 social ventures. Those 25 that are operational serve over 25,000 women and girls every year. Our first uAcademy program at Dartmouth College supported 22 students in designing 12 organizations, including an educational program for the children of migrant workers in Beijing, a venture using theater to fight teen suicide among Inuit youth in Alaska, and a campaign to ensure pregnant students can continue their education. We then took 6 students to Liberia to design a future exchange program in collaboration with our Liberian change agents. We will repeat our program at Dartmouth this fall and pilot a new program at UVA in May.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
If we are able to establish 3-5 new university partnerships, each offering the program to 25 students annually, we would serve a potential 175 students each year. Among these student participants, we would target the launch of 25-50 new social ventures each year that would be designed through our uAcademy incubator. Most of our African ventures go on to benefit 500 - 2500 people annually, so when students follow through on their implementation, their work could potentially reach 12,500 - 125,000 others.

Queremos saber mais sobre seu momento “A-ha!”. Compartilhe a história sobre onde e quando o(s) fundador(es) viu(viram) o potencial desta solução para transformar o mundo.
In 2006, Johannes Allesch and his girlfriend came back from an informed consent explanation for a complicated, major surgery. Although the doctor took his time and explained the surgery in great detail, the given explanation was just not informative enough. Right after this incident, Johannes decided to dedicate his education as a 3D-artist to medical explanation procedures. AniMedical was born.

The AniMedes-App for mobile devices replaces outdated paper based informed consent methods by using short 3D-Animation movies. Our movies explain interventional procedures in a schematic and easily understandable way, but they are medically correct and detailed. The movies and the corresponding app are available in different languages, thus giving doctors the security that their patients really understand the procedure, even if they speak another language.
The additional utilization of a short animated film can facilitate informed consent explanations, save time and induce a clearer understanding of medical procedures with health care amateurs. This is key to patients coping with their sickness and their compliance with their chosen treatment options. The utilization of digital informed consent software can and facilitate talks between doctors and patients the overall administrative process and provide additional legal security for all participants.
Our app can completely replace the paper based informed consent in hospitals, while providing more security and information, saving time and resources. This is why AniMedes also features questionnaires about possible risks and the patient's own questions. However, the app was neither designed to replace the direct conversation between doctors and patients, nor is this a desirable effect anytime in the future. The integrated, digital approach of AniMedes uses the latest trends from tablet technologies and informational media to ensure an innovative, unprecedented product for healthcare purposes.
Descreva como o seu modelo de inovação é diferente de qualquer outra organização na sua área.
The specialty of AniMedes is the focus we put on 3D-animations as an information source. AniMedical is an animation studio that focuses on medical content. While others also have that focus, the majority of patient education media is produced by conservative print publishers. Animation studios mostly work as subcontractors, with focus on doctor-centered solutions, or they don’t specialize in medicine at all. Looking at existing patient education software, most solutions are digital versions of the paper based forms that allow for no innovative, user-friendly interaction. The possibilities of modern touchpad technologies are simply omitted and ignored. AniMedes is the first app to combine validated 3D-movies with interactive questionnaires on tablet computers for both, doctors and patients.
Que tipo de ambiente operacional e fatores da organização interna ajudarão o projeto a ser bem sucedido?
AniMedical and teamworx media management run the AniMedes project together, each providing their unique networks and skills of marketing, media, animation and software development. Our combination of designers, programmers, marketing specialists, and a large advisory group of doctors form a highly flexible network of skillful employees and external specialists. This allows us to develop the app fast and highly adapted to respective workloads. We keep close contact with universities to recruit well trained specialists early on. All media is created with doctors and major hospital care providers. AniMedes is getting certified, tested and cleared for hospital use, so doctors can rely on security and legal validation of any information that the app delivers to their patients.
Como você garante que inova constantemente à luz de (potenciais) desafios externos, ou do seu plano de crescimento?
Since AniMedes is an app on digital devices, it is subject to constant change. This means that it is of the utmost importance to always keep the product up to date and fresh, not least because the medical data needs to be accurate at all times. AniMedes is updated continually in constant collaboration with leading medical experts and according to medical guidelines.
Furthermore, the included movies and 3D-animations as well as text contents of the app are being varied to customary standards and legal requirements of each clinic or country the app is sold to. To keep the product at the cutting edge of innovation, the company will be present with branch offices at innovation/university hotspots in Austria and Germany.

Medical patient education has come to a deadlock through the extensive use of standardized methods. Officially, verbal informed consent explanations between physicians and patients are the fundament of patient information. Educational pamphlets add information with texts and pictures. In practice, these pamphlets consist of way more information on risks and side effects than on the actual treatment, therefore also being called "waivers".
Complex medical content cannot be conveyed comprehensibly by using outdated methods. Medical texts are hard to read, while increasing numbers of illiterate people will pose a big problem to doctors in the future. At the same time, doctors increasingly less time per patient. Additionally, lawsuits are increasingly expensive for primary care providers.

Por favor, descreva sua solução mais detalhadamente
AniMedes is a completely digital system that is able to handle the complete process of informing patients prior to their surgery, including the informed consent signature. It presents information using short movies and 3D-animations. It features questionnaires with the patient's most commonly asked questions and can admin a patient's anamnesis. It displays everything the patient saw and submitted for the doctor, providing a coherent frame of issues or dangers that concern the patient, hence providing a good outline for their personal talk. The app logs and stores all the information typed in automatically, everything can be easily commented on by the attending doctor. This saves valuable time in the conversation that would normally be needed for excessive handwritten documentation.
Qual é sua visão e objetivos gerais?
The ultimate goal for AniMedes is to completely substitute all standardized paper pamphlets that are being used by almost all hospitals around the world. Every patient education procedure can be improved by using modern tools. Our approach is designed to be scalable, so that in the future, most surgeries and major treatments will have an according movie to explain them to patients in multiple languages. This is a systematic improvement to the quality of the informed consent explanations, a large step towards improved legal security for both medical personnel and patients. It is a role model application for realigning an outdated system and adapting it for the digital future of medicine.
Qual é sua proposta de valor?
Using animated movies and software on mobile touchpads to explain complex medical issues to patients offers multiple benefits.
A lot of time can be saved due to the automatic documentation of every information that goes out to, or comes back from the patients. Doctors would normally need this time to manually document their discussions with their patients. It improves the legal security of the whole patient education process. Saving the finished documentation digitally saves space and resources. The app delivers audiovisual information in any language, so every patient has a chance to understand their treatment and to actively contribute to a better outcome. Digital patient education also offers a constant data source for improvement of quality, effectivity and a minimization of mistakes.
Quem são seus clientes?
Relevant customers are mainly hospitals and private clinics, respectively hospital operators as well as general practitioners and specialists. In countries with healthcare systems that are largely funded by state or regional governments, these political bodies have a high influence on the decision making process within hospitals and need to be addressed as possible clients as well. Private clinics and smaller hospital groups often have a special interest in being very technologically advanced and have more compact decision-making structures. This makes them a more ideal and easier approachable customer for the product, while large hospital operators, have a demand for much higher quantities and therefore provide more scalable sales possibilities.
Quais abordagens você usa para alcançar seus clientes?
Regarding clients such as hospitals, hospital operators, private clinics, general practitioners and specialists, AniMedes will be sold using a direct marketing approach. Hospitals can be covered easiest by signing long-term service contracts with their operating companies and the regional governments that fund them. Other doctors as well as the private sector will be covered by attending medical conventions and by addressing medical associations. Reaching customers for AniMedes is not as hard as convincing them to change a system that has widely been accepted as a standard over the last few decades. This is why every movie pack sold within AniMedes will be cleared by leading physicians and in the best case scenario be approved by nationwide medical associations and the health ministry.
Quais sãos suas atividades principais?
AniMedicals primary activities as inventor of the app are to represent the product in front of customers and connect with key decision makers.
Other activities: development of the product, programming and design, text and media creation. This includes producing 3D-animations and legal texts, as well as translations and sound recording in various languages. Also, AniMedical creates and maintains the overall product design with website, logos, advertisements, folders and flyers. The responsibilities of teamworx media management are to promote the app via public relations, find and cultivate new customers and stake holders and to sell and distribute the product, which is a task they are well fit to accomplish due to their vast network within hospital organizations and medical officials.
Quem são seus pares e concorrentes? Quais problemas esses atores poderiam representar para seu sucesso e crescimento?
In Europe, the Thieme corporation, a medical publisher, is the main competitor.
Thieme currently produces almost all informed consent forms on paper, used by doctors in our target countries, therefore being the current "gold standard". However, their digital product line is lacking larger amounts of provided informational movies and 3D-animations.
Thieme already has all the customer relationships that AniMedes needs to start up. It is a larger competitor and can react to almost any competitors by simply outbuying/underbidding them.
Once AniMedes is on the open market, the app could be imitated or competitors could denounce the app for technical reasons. This is the reason why AniMedes needs to be spotless regarding legal conformity, data security, certification and standardization.
Quais outros desafios – individuais, organizacionais ou de meio ambiente – você atualmente enfrenta ou poderiam impedir o futuro sucesso do seu negócio e como você pretende superá-los?
AniMedical and teamworx media management combined are not very large companies. Financing and developing the app is a task that needs to be backed up by other sources of revenue from both companies. The smaller the company, the harder it also is to develop a notable market presence that is sustainable. Additionally, many decision makers in healthcare did not grow up with mobile applications and therefore have a natural tendency to distrust digital products. This challenge pairs well with the general precarious situation of computer programs that deal with patient data, as many examples of computerization in healthcare have shown lately. Most of these challenges can be overcome by strategically growing the business without overstretching it, and by responsible product development.

What started as a little project to bring some new form of media into patient education became increasingly bigger over the last two years. At one point, just adding an additional tool to the doctors portfolio in form of providing them with a movie, was not enough. The movies alone could not substitute any existing part of the informed consent explanations. With creating the AniMedes-app, AniMedical has taken a huge step towards professionalization and the creation of a well-rounded product that really makes things easier in every day clinical life.
Over the last few months, we have started a larger scale discussion among our partnering hospitals, the Austrian government, the Austrian patient advocacy and most of the major government supported hospital operators, about the current state of patient education. This discussion was very successful and will undoubtedly lead to a series of innovation projects and hopefully to an improvement of the situation of patients in hospitals in the long run. Some of our movies have already been tested in clinical situations in a private clinic as well as a general hospital in Salzburg. Both test runs have shown that patients accepted the new media very well and actually enjoyed this part of their hospitalization. Although AniMedes needs to be thoroughly tested, the outcome of those early tests and the response by the medical community in general was overwhelmingly positive.
Quais métodos de quantificação de impacto social você está usando (se alguma)?
AniMedes is subject of a randomized prospective patient study at the department for urology at Paracelsus Medical University in Salzburg. This study is conducted by OR Dr. S. Hruby and the Chief of Medicine, Univ.-Prof. Dr. G. Janetschek. In the study, AniMedes is used to explain two surgical procedures of varying complexity to test any influence on patient education. The primary focus is the patient's knowledge and comprehension of the upcoming surgery, secondary points of interest are the patient's fear and satisfaction with the system, as well as secondary effects for the hospital, like time and effort needed to run the app in a clinic. The study will start in May and run for six months. First results are expected as soon as August, due to the frequency of the less complex surgery.
Sua solução poderia funcionar em outras locais ou regiões? Se sim, onde?
AniMedes is principally adaptable for any language, country, medical and legal demands. 2D-movies can depict any surgery or treatment that people can visualize in their own thoughts, so there is basically no limit to what can be shown or explained using an 3D-animation. The app can be implemented a lot easier in countries where the medical standards are high on average, because it massively benefits from existing infrastructure such as wireless networks, internet and docking stations or tablet computers that are already being used. The technical requirements make it logical, that the most important markets for AniMedes are Europe, the Middle East (especially the UAE), North America, Japan and Australia, followed by China, Russia, Southern America and African countries.
Qual é a sua expectativa de impacto para os próximos 1 - 3 anos?
Since AniMedes is a fairly new product that has not proven itself in the "real world", it is hard to project the possible impact it will make on the market. First tests have shown great potential in the concept and our extensive test runs of the app in 2013 will deliver the data needed to create a great product. Over the last few months, we have dedicated a lot of our time to finding clinics in Austria and Germany that eagerly accepted our offer to test the app in 2013. Our best case estimate of a possible market coverage projects a possible home market share (Austria and Germany) of up to 30% after 5 years, given the proper resources. This means 100 clinics in Austria and 1.000 in Germany alone. This can roughly be replicated in any similarly developed country.

AniMedical has received substantial financial aid from 2010 to the end of 2011, by a state-funded accademic incubator and a small national funding project, to finance a very early-stage prototape of the app. Since then, all of the money spent on the app has come from the company's own financial reserves. Since 2012, the companies teamworx media management and AniMedical share costs and income on the AniMedes project. Currently, the companies are financing the development of the app through their regular income. For AniMedical, this means commissioned work from pharmaceutical companies or medical institutions. The teamworx media managment GmbH generates their revenue from selling medically relevant videos to online newspapers and medical publishers. The normal cash flow dedicated to the AniMedes project is reflected in the current annual budget and currently reaches about USD 50.000,- per year.
AniMedes will also be submitted to various forms of external beneficiary financing, especially nationwide funding initiatives by the Austrian government as well as local (state) economy funds.
Additionally, AniMedes was submitted to various partnership programs by leading hardware/software companies. Those companies offer financial support and partnering strategies that will leviate the costs of product development for AniMedical enormously. Currently, there is an ongoing enquiry for AniMedes at Microsoft Austria and Western Europe, to fully fund the migration of AniMedes to Windows8 software and hardware combinations.

AniMedes is sold as a service that includes initial installing, updates and maintenance. Customers will pay for the service and the provided movies in yearly licenses, prices increase by the number of licensed movies and tablet-PCs. The movies will only be available in packages of at least 5 movies, those packages are created according to medical specialties. Apps can be updated over the internet, which ensures that customers always have the latest version and AniMedes can provide location-independent maintenance and update service. Due to the license-based system and the language-independency, the business model is extremely scalable and easily transferable to new markets.The licenses will add up and enable AniMedical to develop the product using a steady and predictable cash flow.

Estratégias de filantropia que você usa
Estratégia diversificada.
Explique sua abordagem filantrópica mais detalhadamente
Austria and Germany offer many ways to bring in funds from philantropic sources, as well as state or nationwide competitions and government fundings.
We will submit AniMedes to various funding programs by initiatives such as the Austria Wirtschaftsservice (Austrian Economy Service) and the Forschungsförderungsgesellschaft (Association for Research Funding). In addition to programs that support the development of the product itself, there are some initiatives that support the export of products to different markets, such as the ITG (Innovation and Technology Transfer Association Salzburg).
Depending on the success of our appeals, the estimated income from such sources ranges from EUR 10.000,- to EUR 70.000,-.
Fale mais sobre os itens selecionados; explique como você vai manter o financiamento.
Since AniMedes will be sold using a licencing fee model, no clinic will have to pay for the full production costs of the 3D-animations or the app and AniMedical can sell to any number of clients. The current system of paper pamphlets works just the same way: Clinics pay an annual fee to gain rights to use and print the paper pamphlets used in patient education. Our strategy works just the same. The current projected cost of a fully functional product with 2 tablets, about 7 movies that represent the majority of the concerning medical speciality, and technical support is about USD 7.000,- per year. These costs can be varied according to clinic and order size. These fees add up, while the steady cash flow enables AniMedical to update and perpetually improve the software.
Until the point is reached where this steady income exceeds expenses and product development costs, the current strategy consists of the aforementioned funding strategies: Own cash flow from commissioned work outside of the AniMedes project, cooperations with and funding by external partners and government funds, which mostly run for durations of over a year in any case.
Another strategy involves the cooperation with pharmaceutical partners that could have a strong interest in the app as a showcase tool for marketing purposes or sales staff. The app therefore also acts as a use-case for pharmaceutical marketing, which can create further revenue for AniMedical in the future.

Resumo: Qual problema específico é que o seu projeto tenta resolver?
The Careers addresses the issue of unsatisfactory educational performance, especially in students grades 5-10. It targets the students' side of the issue often called "accountability" through emphasizing inspiration and instilling a sense of purpose in youth. Accountability is the idea of giving schools, districts, and educators the responsibility for student achievement, and my venture aims to improve student accountability through raised awareness and motivation of the relevance of education (hopefully inspiring them along the way). Struggling students often lack a sense of purpose at school, feeling stupid and discouraged which only makes improving even more difficult than doing well in the first place. The Careers targets these students and aims to give them a brighter perspective toward scholastic achievement and a sense of purpose as to why they should put effort into education.

The Careers will provide information about industries and careers, explaining the importance of education in each, with the intention of inspiring students to choose and pursue a goal, thus giving them a personal reason to put more effort into their academic performance. In terms of accountability, schools are responsible for building a solid curriculum, districts deal managing schools and setting standards, teachers are charged with educating, and students with learning. Students are the only branch not receiving an income for the fulfillment of their responsibility, and often lack an explanation to the teacher-hated question "why do I need to know this?" Students receive no universal or standard incentive to even try in school; each is driven by some combination of parent influence, fear of authority, fear of failure, personal goals, or has no drive at all. My venture will offer "proof" as to the relevance of education in relation to careers, and motivation to succeed in school.
O Modelo: Demonstre através de um exemplo específico como sua solução faz a diferença; inclua suas atividades primárias
Alex is a freshman at a public high school is South Florida. She has three C's, a D in English and Science, and an F in her low-level math class. Her younger brother also has poor grades and her parents do not push her or punish her. She is uninvolved in activities and spends her time at the mall with friends. Alex doesn't do homework or worry about her bad grades, crediting them to the fact that she is "bad at school, and school is stupid anyway." She loves fashion magazines and idolizes the design team behind Proenza Schouler and the editor in chief of Teen Vogue Amy Astley. While on stumbleupon.com, Alex comes across TheCareers.com and browses around, looking at pictures and reading about jobs that look exciting. She finds the fashion industry page of the site and reads about the job descriptions of designers, magazine editors, stylists, and writers, among others. Interested that many professionals in the industry have gone to universities and design schools, she discovers that Amy Astley has a degree in English Literature and designers behind Proenza Schouler have degrees from Parsons. Alex reads about many other industry successes and finds that they praise the value of knowledge of many disciplines, including art history and fashion history, social sciences and anthropology, and foreign languages. This experience ignites wishes and hope inside Alex, and she begins to take more of an interest in school. She sees that the people she admires, and people like them she didn't even know about, are well educated and have proven the value of knowledge.
The Community: Define your community, local or international, that you will work on behalf of. What population is affected? Are there other organizations working in this space?
Because my Venture, at least the central project, is a website, my community is essentially global, although I can target my efforts in my local community. Access to the website will be free to users, and the user needs only access to the internet. The youth population is mainly affected as I am targeting students in grades 5-10. As with all ventures, my audience will be small and centered around my community upon the initial website launch. By hosting career days or presenting at schools in the three South Florida counties (Miami Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach county), I will be able to spread the word and promote The Careers in my community. Miami-Dade county is the 4th largest district in the country and Broward is the 7th (roughly 350,000 and 260,000 students, respectively), so targeting these areas to work on behalf of will enable me to make a large impact with my voice and venture. There are many career books, a few websites dedicated to describing careers, and organizations targeting youth in terms of education improvement, but there are not organizations trying to improve academic performance through means of "career awareness."
História: O que inspirou o seu empreendimento? Por quê?
It all started with my best friend. Eden is kind, generous, and a great friend, but I have always been worried about her because she has never seem academic success nor liked school at all. She went to a speech therapist for phonation issues as a child and has gone through three years of tutoring, but her low grades have never improved because she has no drive to put forth effort. In my own school, my friends are frustrated with the amount of work we do, without anyone telling us "why." I have often wondered what sets my good grades and willing attitude apart from Eden's poor academic performance and my friends' skepticism toward the value of our education. I realized that it is the influence of inspiration- I see the connection between knowledge now and acceptance to my "first choice" university and the opportunity to have a "cool" job as an adult. I came up with the idea for this website as a means of enlightening teenagers about cool jobs that exist and how education plays a role.
What is your long-term vision for your Venture?
My long-term vision is that middle and high school students will visit the website based on word-of-mouth, a teacher recommendation, or coming across it on a discovery engine. I intend to create a website that students will find inspiring and entertaining, which will be enhanced in certain communities with career day presentations at schools and community centers. I aspire to explain and convince youth that putting effort into their education is worthwhile while helping them establish a sense of purpose. Eventually spread the message of The Careers through other means of media, possibly as a software application, social media pages, or a television commercial.

leia mais↓↑ ocultar↑ ocultarO que você quer realizar em seu primeiro ano?
In the BIG PICTURE of the first year, I see four categories of key activities to develop. 1) There is the creation of the website itself which means want to write and organize all of the content for the initial launch of the website, and produce and launch the website itself. 2) There is the promotion of the website- I want to market my venture and figure out how to get the website in the loop of discovery engines like StumbleUpon (over 25 million registered users), SpinSnap, and Pinterest (48.7 million users). Through this accomplishment, I plan to find other means of popularizing the website. 3) Within the first year I would like to look into supplementary website activities- such as blog posts, feature articles, establishing a scholarship program, or creating competitions, among other ideas- and accomplish selected ideas for the website. The boldest and most effective supplementary activity would be running small-scale career days in schools (starting with public middle schools in my area). There is no better way to teach and persuade than in person, with spoken words and live presentations. While the website is more of a passive approach to the issue, career fairs are an aggressive method of ensuring that my message is heard, not to mention gives me and my team a better opportunity to evaluate the influence of our ideas and discuss the status of academic performance in the schools. 4) Funding: I want to find sponsors to contribute to the project.
* The 6 month milestone will not allow me to type more than a line.
My six month milestone is:
Create, launch and promote the website and establish related projects, especially the career days in schools across Broward, Dade, and Palm Beach counties. The careers days are an optimal time to track growth- presenters can have discussions with groups of students and administrators to evaluate the impact of The Careers. The Careers, first and foremost, is meant to serve struggling students; and so we should mainly focus on the percentage of students who moved from below to at or above standard proficiency levels. Academic improvement of students with learning deficiencies should be taken into account, along with students of ethnic minorities, children learning English as a second language, and economically disadvantaged students.
In twelve months, I would have like to accomplished the following:
The website should be completely created structurally, with new pages being added easily each month. Additionally, we should have an established list of schools for which we plan and host annual career days. By the twelve-month mark, I would like to have shifted some focus to activities beside the careers days (such as the idea of offering scholarships or having online competitions of sorts).

In the short term, the first priority is creating the content, which involves research, conducting, interviews, writing, and organizing media on the website. Thus, my Venture defines success as completing this within seven months.
In the long-term (1 year?)
The definition of long term success for this Venture is acquiring readers, inspiring them with goals of fascinating careers, and proving that education has merit and is vital to having one of these dream-inducing careers. Success will also come in the form of keeping certain elements of the website current, possibly including keeping up with a weekly or monthly featured career, posting questions for readers, adding new industries and career entries to the website. Success is being in a state of constant improvement.
Como você vai medir o sucesso?
Initially our success will be whether or not we have a website to launch. Long-term success is mostly a function of how many readers we acquire, how much we influence them, and how much they like the website and its features. I can measure the "how many" with a website hit counter and the subjective measurements will be made by user comments, questions, and concerns from the "Contact Us" page. Additionally, I can post surveys and evaluation questions on the website specifically asking users how (if at all) the website has motivated them to improve their grades and if it has given them previously inaccessible information they wanted. Our goal is to improve proficiency rates through providing students with a source of inspiration and a sense of purpose- evaluating annual proficiency rates based on standardized testing or looking at academic improvement of specific groups of struggling students (students with mental/physical disabilities, ESOL students, economically challenged students, etc.) can potentially measure our impact on our target students.
Why?
Reading individual testimonies, analyzing trends in academic performance & status of meeting standards will enable us to improve

What problem is your organization committed to solving? In particular, share what is innovative about your approach.
Kidsbridge created the Kidsbridge Tolerance Museum located on the campus of The College of New Jersey (TCNJ) in Ewing, NJ. It is the only 'evidence-based' youth tolerance museum in the U.S., and we would like to replicate our successful 'learning lab' model on other college campuses. Not only do we have statistically significant attitude improvements for visiting youth and college student docents, but this program improves teaching and motivation in the areas of character education, diversity appreciation, victim empowerment and UPstander behavior for teachers, counselors, anti-bullying specialists and principals as well. Most innovative about our approach is the committed partnership among Kidsbridge, TCNJ's Education & Psychology departments, and the college students themselves.
What are your organization's top three priorities in the next year?
1) Pilot our youth tolerance museum model on other college/university campuses.
2) Create a mobile youth tolerance museum -- a.k.a., an outreach program on wheels that travels to schools and organizations unable to visit our tolerance museum.
3) Expand our reach to educate more kids, youth, college students, parents and educators (teachers, counselors and principals).

Message & Brand Strategy
Based on your first choice of the eight technical categories you selected above, what is your specific project need? Please be specific!
Kidsbridge needs assistance in creating a business and communications plan that will strategically assess our resources, capabilities and challenges to export our successful museum model to other college campuses, tolerance centers or children's museums. Our 'evidence-based' model does not exist anywhere else, and we believe the time is right to replicate this program that teaches strategies and promotes discussion about: anti-bullying; diversity appreciation; respect for all persons; empathy & victim empowerment; UPstander behavior; peaceful conflict resolution; youth activism and aspiration to college. A successful collaboration includes: involved Education and Psychology departments of the college/university, college students trained to be volunteer docents and retired educators who also volunteer their time. It is the foundation on which this successful 'learning lab" format is based, as such can be easily replicated given a commitment to youth education, empathy and tolerance. Expert consulting will strengthen our analysis and guide us in the next strategic steps. More than 160,000 kids avoid school each year in the US because they fear being bullied. We can't wait any longer.

Honesty and no hidden agendas.
3.

Will support from American Express be focused on your organization overall or a specific product/service? Please describe.
In addition to business acumen, a business plan and strategic thinking, financial support would be used to work with a museum design company to: 1) Accurately assess the cost to replicate the museum to other venues, 2) Brand the Kidsbridge name and tolerance museum for other venues and 3) Create a marketing/communications plan to pilot a replication of the tolerance museum – including the critical steps of recruiting committed partners and choosing the right setting. The museum program is the jewel in the Kidsbridge crown. Other Kidsbridge programs could be reviewed for replication as well.
Have you focused on the above area previously? If so, please explain, including whether you have worked with outside consultants before.
Kidsbridge has not had the resources to replicate our 'evidence-based' museum program. We believe the time is right to clone this model. Our museum program is strong; since opening in 2006 we've educated more than 15,000 youth and 300 educators (2500/year). With the focus on bullying and cyberbulling’s daily threats to kids, educators are looking for more effective answers. Our museum program provides them.
Kidsbridge has worked with many consultants before including; special event planning companies and those focusing on strategic planning, branding, social media and database management.

Qual foi o impacto da sua solução até hoje?
Assessing since 2007, our 'evidence-based' program has created statistically significant improvements in youth outcomes for: 1) empathy, 2) stereotype knowledge, 3) aspiration to college, 4) religious diversity, 5) moral reasoning and 6) empowerment. Each year 300 college students are trained and volunteer as museum docents to lead small group discussions with visiting youth.
This is significant for two major reasons: Empathy is precipitously dropping for our youth and bullying/cyberbullying are on the rise. Educators indicate they have noticed recent changes in the core values and ethics of young students. This new generation is driven by materialism and an increasing addiction to technology – leading to declines in interpersonal skills and lack of empathy for their fellow classmates.
What is your project future impact after receiving professional support from American Express?
Our ‘evidence-based’ program will be effective in creating empathy, empowerment and other positive attitude characteristics – yielding more youth, college students and adults who are practiced and empowered to stop bullies, intervene safely in potentially dangerous situations and stand up to make their schools and communities safer, better places to thrive.
Creating a learning lab on a college campus will allow that university to nurture a culture of empathy and empowerment for students, professors and administrators. For example, Penn State would be perfect for a tolerance museum. Sources state that this University has not moved forward in an impactful way to change its “football first” culture. A new safe place on campus could serve as a culture changer for those who need it most.

Resumo: Qual problema específico é que o seu projeto tenta resolver?
Our Venture addresses the lack of interest/availability music education in schools. According to DoSomething, a 2009 report done by New York City reports that only 33% of students take music classes. Out of 160 middle schools in Brooklyn, 26% of schools don't even offer music education! According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, school budget crunches have been a trend over the past couple years and span the entire nation. The main reason why arts programs are being cut is because of the budget deficit. Thus, there'll be more and more students in need of music encouragement.
Missão: O que o seu projeto faz?
We will stop clicking incessantly on the pause button, and press play! Through our program, we will open the eyes and senses with vivid music, and illustrate the various connections, which will be directed towards a segmented market.

Imagine this: You have just come home from school, and you plop your backpack in front of the computer. You boot up your computer, log into your account, and click on the first link in your bookmarks. The page starts to load - a jumble of interesting, vibrantly presented links. There are stacks of interesting music and cooking articles to the right. There are discussions to join in, and your teammate has just asked you, "What's up?" Play On! will be mainly constructing a networking model. We want our costumers to feel good! Thus, we will arrange a network of support in a time where music recognition is falling. Play On! could also incorporate a social networking spin to it. Moreover, Play On! will help members discover how the world is interwoven. Cooking and music are two topics that are not often linked together. will explore this angle to make the subject of music sound more lively. We will introduce apps, articles, and discussion questions. Our primary activities are networking and nurturing a love for music. We would also love to engage in many conversations. This is a place where everyone can share ideas and experiences. Play On! is a family, and everyone is welcome.
The Community: Define your community, local or international, that you will work on behalf of. What population is affected? Are there other organizations working in this space?
Our group will be working in our local community. In the community today, there are many select ensembles - orchestras, bands and choirs. However, they all appeal to the experienced music student. Take, for example, the Western Connecticut Youth Orchestra. It has an audition process, and promotes music by having everyone play pieces. However, what happens to the person who is interested in music, and wants to go further? They could get a private tutor, but there is no organization. This is where Play On! comes in. Also, we recruit students with culinary experience who are interested in music.
História: O que inspirou o seu empreendimento? Por quê?
When the local music programs were about to be cut from my school, I was irritated. The news was first announced by my Orchestra teacher. Emotion sang in his arguments, and I found myself getting more and more annoyed. Our school had already cut out one year of Orchestra - and now it was going to limit it further? I pitied the fourth graders who were robbed of a chance. My brother had been eagerly anticipating fourth-grade Orchestra, and playing. Now, his dream would be cut short. I remember it was in fourth grade that I truly fell in love with orchestra. Fourth grade was one of the happiest in my grade school career, because I was learning with people who really loved music and orchestra; I wanted my little brother to experience the same.
What is your long-term vision for your Venture?
My long term vision for my Venture is a forum with discussion questions and assignments - the teams will share experiences and draw conclusions on these two topics. The forum will also have various articles and videos for people to reflect on. A website will be constructed with a list of products.
Do you own an Apple device? I bet you do! In a 2012 NBC article, it was shown that half of America's households own at least one Apple device. The market for apps is huge; Play On! will design games with music and cooking in them. We will sell these for $4.99, and promote using periodic discounts.

We would like to recruit members and establish 10 teams of two. Also, we would like to have people in my town to be familiar with this concept. This can be accomplished with advertising. We would like to have the district's music teachers know of this project, and at the very least, promote it. They can even as far as to be a member. Money would not be as big of an issue, as this was supposed to be a nonprofit organization. However, by the end of the first year, we want to have a way to secure revenue funds. This might be in the form of an e-book collaboration, or a real book. But, we will definitely make a series of apps, for $4.99, that will have music and cooking in one game. Our goal is to have the first batch out for the group to try.

Play On! will define success by the number of people who have joined and have posted at least once a week, which would determine interest in the idea. We will also define success based upon our participant's feedback. We can give out monthly surveys to evaluate our business model. The questions will range from the team, to the discussions, to the materials and assignments. Our aim is to create a community, and we want to make sure that happens.
In the long-term (1 year?)
Play On! will start to define success by the amount of new members we get, as well as how much revenue we generate. The more new members we get, the faster word is spreading. It tells us that idea is out there! Moreover, we hope to have some source of revenue drafted by the end of the first year, so we can start to benefit from those sales. The profits from these sales can go towards paying guest speakers and hosting bigger, splashier music events.
Como você vai medir o sucesso?
We will measure success by how many positive reviews we get. Play On! is all about costumer satisfaction. If the music student doesn't like this program, then they're not going to benefit it. This, in turn, will detract from our mission, which is to nurture the love of music in the participants. Every month, Play On! will release a survey. Another format we could stream the surveys in is to send out SurveyMonkeys. They will be short answer or multiple choice questions, and will not remain anonymous. That way, our Venture can get a truthful assessment of our plans. We can collect each participant's e-mail address as part of the sign-up process, and then send them monthly newsletters that will garner more publicity to the site. Moreover, we will measure success by how much new, interesting material we can get. For example, if we can secure the help of a prominent musician, either to be part of the Venture or just be a guest speaker, then our Venture will be doing very well. This support means that we are doing something right; people actually have heard of it, and know what it's about. Furthermore, they are interested in it, and like the idea enough to volunteer some time to contribute to it. This stamp of approval will also boost advertising - like how famous athletes and celebrities often endorse products. However, this other way of measuring success will no doubt come later, as we have to build up our Venture first.
Why?
Our Venture is all about community and piquing people's interest in music!
