Foosler: follow-up meetings with initial contacts to re-explore resistance and what $ value they need to collaborate

Seeing some unusual multiple postings on the blog? Gremlin?

Yes. Patient compliance is a HUGE problem across health care. Physio, drugs, everything.
-
enfinlay
Agreed, if they can solve the patient compliance problem the drug industry will beat a path to their door.

ZenithWind, how high are the kites? Is altitude a problem in locally? Back-to-grid has power quality req’s I think – Expensive Equipment?
-
adrienemery
Yes – If you stay <50kW peak production it is much easier though
-
adrienemery
but currently looking into regulations across country/USA
-
-
adrienemery
altitude is ~ 100m – 300 m (higher is better)

Does a farmer have the capital for something like this?
-
adrienemery
the idea of free power for free land would remove any cost to the farmer. But we have to run the numbers first

Going toe-to-toe with utilities with the farmers. Bold move.

Interesting TED talk on kite-powered energy generation, might be some useful info: http://blog.ted.com/2009/03/23/inventing_a_sup/ might be

Check out mining fly camps (exploratory drilling, surveying). Main power flow-in diesel. Very expensive; I have a report somewhere.

Liability and insurance in preventative injury – how can Axon identify the role and fit of these factors?
-
axon_Eoin
Agreed. We are looking at how liability, insurance and lawsuits fit into the broader story

@axon there’s some university clubs that are at high risk of concussions, but not really regulated. They could be interesting. MMA @ SFU
-
taggjefferson
I have a contact who has taught/trained at several MMA gyms; be happy to pass along her contact info if of value.
-
axon_Eoin
Thanks, that would be very useful!
-
-
axon_Eoin
Yes, in the US litigation is a strong driving force, in Canada it’s more gently on the preventive side

AXON – I know a lot of soccer coaches development programs. I am a soccer coach as well. Lets chat after.
-
axon_Eoin
Great, yes, lets chat after the workshop!

@axon , are there really that many concussions in soccer? My first instinct points to college level Hockey / Football.
-
taggjefferson
What about uni sports teams? Perhaps more an American thing, but US university football teams have money to burn + lots of injuries.
-
taggjefferson
Or, if you went to High School in Kentucky like me, you could check out HS programs that spend more money on football than math classes…
-
kylehounslow
Agreed.
-
-
axon_Eoin
Uni teams are on our radar, thanks.

All teams: look to Mamoptics’ example for visual sketches on customer workflow and purchase decision tree; now create your version and blog

Axon – have you moved away from Freemium? Or is it freemium subscriptions?

How’s this for a team name? eFarmony

adrienemery
love it!

adrienemery
maybe you could partner or connect with them? http://farmleaseconnection.org/
-
urbanfarming
Yeah I saw that too. :-S Looks like it was more of a joke and isn’t their business name. Hopefully no branding conflict.
-
urbanfarming
They’re on the list of groups to contact. … right after I find a few partners.
-
urbanfarming
They are focusing on rural partnerships and it looks like they aren’t doing urban. So hopefully no conflict there either.
