One thing that I started following since long time Our mind is great in having ideas but not in holding them, so I started marking them all down and brainstorm as much as I can. You'll be surprised to know the result of this 'good' habit. I started getting answer to all my growth and community related problems, even I got the best way to pitch the vision of engineerHUB on which I was working since last two weeks. #habit #startup #pitchdeck #growth #community #building #engineer #engineering

🎉 Exciting Announcement! 🎉 I am thrilled to share that I have been awarded Stage 2 of The Norman Esch Awards Intake 25 for my project EV-Mob! 🚀 The Norman Esch Awards, facilitated by the Centre of Engineering Innovation and Entrepreneurship at Toronto Metropolitan University, provide invaluable support and resources to students in the Faculty of Engineering and Architectural Sciences to explore Entrepreneurial Ventures. Despite being away on vacation during the announcement, the recognition and support from the Esch Awards and the opportunity to incubate at Innovation Boost Zone are instrumental in advancing my business idea within the vibrant Toronto startup ecosystem. This achievement marks a significant milestone in our journey towards revolutionizing urban electric vehicle charging with EV-Mob. Despite the brief gap between Stage 2 and Stage 3, we have remained dedicated to advancing our Innovative Business Model with EV-Mob and I am eager to share the Strategic Pivot we've been working on in subsequent updates, which promises to Elevate EV-Mob to new heights of success.   The experience gained through thorough market research during this stage has been invaluable. It has provided deeper insights into market needs, guiding our resource allocation and strengthening our business model. As International Graduate students managing multiple commitments, we are optimizing our Time, Funding, and Market validation efforts to drive Innovation and create Impact. #NormanEschAwards #EVmob #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #Sustainability #TorontoStartupScene #EVs #funding #Grants #strategy #marketvalidation #marketresearch #startupecosystem #motivation

What makes an entrepreneur's life exciting despite all the uncertainties, risks and doubts? I say, the excitement of building things from scratch and solving problems for their customers. Last year marked the genesis of Bracketworks.io, our brainchild - a dynamic D3 (Design, Data, and Development) solutions provider catering to businesses in the Middle East. The initial steps were undoubtedly challenging, but fast forward to today, and we're elated to share a major milestone: our inaugural project with none other than Hisense ME - a major multinational appliance and electronics manufacturer. What makes this project special for us? Well, it wasn't just about entering the market but also competing against the best and, securing a renowned brand as our first Middle East project and WE DID IT! On that note, If you're on the lookout to build your tech stack from the ground up or give your existing one a transformative makeover, let's connect. Else, a simple like/share would be appreciated too :) Here's to new beginnings and the exciting road ahead! #Design #Data #Development #Technology #Websitedesignservices #Datainfrastructure #Startups #Hisense

Reflections from Venture West: Just returned home from a great Venture West in San Francisco, organized by BuiltWorlds. Xpanner’s session on Automation was well received and many participants came to our booth for a chance to learn more about us AND to try their hand at remotely operating a machine located 400 miles away! Here are a few takeaways of ours from the conference: 1. GTM: Change in the construction industry is slow. Elapsed time for a potential customer to move from concept-to-pilot to rent-to-purchase can take 2~4 years. Thus, rental is a critical offering to drive trial and adoption. Get enough capital to build a rental fleet to enable success. (Caleb Carr, Vita Inclinata Technologies) 2. GTM: For a Contech startup trying to get into a GC, convincing architects to inject the innovations you offer into the project’s design/specs can be a much easier thing to do than going directly to the GCs to take on your technology. (Maxime De Scheemaeker, JUUNOO) 3. Exit: Broaden the scope on potential exit strategies. Don’t get singularly focused on the big IPO. M&A can/should be an attractive option. To keep that option viable and valuable, early planning is required. 4. General: Be ready to explain your startup in 15 seconds. Even your mom explaining to your favorite aunt wants only one line to explain what you do. And she loves you the most in the world! (Daniel Dart, Rock Yard Ventures) Beyond the sessions, we enjoyed meeting many of you who approached us after our session to compliment our solutions and to explore ways that Xpanner might support you. We would enjoy collaborating with you all. On that note, we’re off to sending a “Looking forward to continuing our conversation!” message to friends we met there: Louis COTTIN, Dan Howard, Dai Ohama, Yuji Doi, Akihiro MANDA, Mihir Somalwar, Victor Muchiri, Viviane André, Erin Khan, Simon Ryschka, Derrick Morse, P.E., Shuntaro Kano, Leila Banijamali, Lisa Dunmeyer, Amy Shen, Yuki Takemoto, Kaustubh Pandya, Yusuke Nishikori, Yusuke Tanabe, Jun S H., Paul Michielin, Brad Ruffkess, Hammad Chaudhry. #BuiltWorlds #VentureWest #ConTech #Constructiontechnology #Constructiontech #Construction #Xpanner

Last week, we started our first Business Investor Readiness course, taught by the Lead Instructor, Nathan Lillegard. Nathan has curated a 12-week curriculum where the start-ups will learn the important aspects of running a business, the art of storytelling, and how to pitch their innovations to potential investors. We believe these classes are important tools for the start-ups that they may not already have, propelling them to their next stage.
