The Center for Applied Innovation Announces $10,500 in Funding Allocated Toward 14 Campaigns During the Invent for Humanity Technology Transfer Exchange Fair

May 2nd, 2012 | Author: Jon

Chicago, IL (PRWEB) March 02, 2012

The Center for Applied Innovation, a Chicago based 501(C)3 non-profit organization, announced today that $ 10,500 in funding was allocated during the first-ever Invent for Humanity Technology Transfer Exchange Fair event in Geneva, Switzerland on January 23-25, 2012.

Invent for Humanity is a community, a marketplace and an event focused on harnessing technology for social good. Hosted by the Licensing Executives Society International (LESI) Global Technology Impact Forum, the first Invent for Humanity event supported enterprise-creation campaigns all across the globe.

This effort resulted in the presentation of fourteen campaigns during the event, which were developed in partnership with Kopernik, Solar Sister, Q Drum, California State University, Los Angeles, and Global Research and Innovation Technology (GRIT).

The marketplace aspect of the event enabled the campaigns to receive funding from the Invent for Humanity fund onsite through the allocation of microfinance credits (MFCs) by event attendees.

Each of the 150+ attendees was given MFCs that they could distribute during the two-day event. Attendees interacted with campaign representatives to learn more about the respective details of each campaign, in order to better inform themselves as to where their MFCs would have the most impact.

Once all of the MFCs in circulation were allocated, the Center for Applied Innovation was able to calculate the total amount of real money each MFC was worth, allowing them to assign a monetary value to each credit slip and determine the dollar amount that each campaign had received.

MFCs allow financial contribution and subject matter expert participation in the market process, said James E. Malackowski, LESI President. As the market matures, it is expected that MFC allocation will extend 360 degrees to include needs organizations, ensuring that their unique insight regarding what is mostly likely to succeed will be reflected in overall funding allocations.

The Center for Applied Innovation is pleased to announce the following funding results of the first-ever Invent for Humanity Technology Transfer Exchange Fair:

1.????$ 1,961.45 to the Solar Sister Girl Empowerment Program, which provides school-aged girls in Uganda with science, technology, engineering, business and math education. (View Image: Katherine Lucey, Solar Sister Founder, accepts MFCs from LESIs Alan Lewis)

2.????$ 1,259.04 to Koperniks Take a Load Off campaign, which will provide 90 women and their families in the Matungu district of Kenya (over 500 individuals) with the ability to transport water using Q Drums. (View Image: Alison Kuhlmann receives MFCs for Q Drum and LESI members make use of the Q Drum)

3.????$ 755.42 to Koperniks Make Some Noise for Children in Vietnam campaign, which benefits more than 300 children who suffer from hearing loss by employing solar-powered hearing aid technology combined with the support of teacher training.

4.????$ 609.64 to GRITs Manufacturing Mobility in Romania campaign, which seeks to deploy the Leveraged Freedom Chair technology in Transylvania. (View Image: GRIT founder Tish Scolnik showcasing the Leveraged Freedom Chair)

5.????$ 198.80 to the Kopernik When a Child is Born campaign, which provides midwives in Timor-Leste with labor and delivery equipment in the form of Maternova Obstetrics kits.

6.????$ 159.04 to the Kopernik Whats Cookin campaign, which enables Indonesia women to sell biomass stoves on consignment. (View Image: Kopernik Co-Founder Ewa Wojkowska discussing this campaign with LESI member Paul Germeraad)

7.????$ 145.78 to Koperniks Check-Out a Light campaign, which benefits rural Peruvian children with no income by enabling them to check out solar lanterns from their school libraries, allowing them to study at night.

8.????$ 132.53 to Koperniks Drinks Are On Me campaign, that works with an existing network of womens groups across Indonesia PEKKA in order to provide 250 women with training and water filters to sell on consignment.

9.????$ 119.28 to the Kopernik Give Safe Drinking Water to Rural Nigerians campaign, which, utilizing the Tulip Water Filter, provides more than 500 people with safe, clean water.

10.????$ 79.52 to the Kopernik Smarter Cooking for Indian Women campaign, which impacts 150 tribal households of Bairagarh and Shankarpura, India by allowing them to harness efficient biomass stoves. (View Image: Ewa Wojkowska, Co-founder of Kopernik, receives MFCs for a clean cookstove campaign)

11.????$ 53.01 to the Kopernik What Knowing Can Do campaign, which allows for expansion of computer resources and training in the Rachuonyo district of Kenya.

12.????$ 26.51 to Koperniks Bring Clean, Bright Light to Atauro campaign, which enables fishermen in Timor-Leste to purchase sustainable solar lanterns for night fishing, rendering the disposal of used batteries and flashlights unnecessary.

In addition to the twelve campaigns receiving a total of $ 5,500 in funding above, the Solar Sister Business in a Bag campaign was fully funded onsite in the amount of $ 5,000 by Ocean Tomo, one of the 2012 event sponsors.

This campaign has the ability to impact more than 20,000 Ugandan people with access to clean energy technology through establishing ten female entrepreneurs. These sisters will receive a complete business in a bag, enabling them to create sustainable business ventures in their local communities by selling solar lights, lanterns and mobile phone chargers. (View Image: Solar Sister founder, Katherine Lucey, discussing Nokero solar technology with LESI members)

“It was so exciting to be part of the first Invent for Humanity Technology Fair. It was a lively approach to exchanging information about new technologies that benefit humanity and an interactive way to build support for the innovations, said Katherine Lucey, Founder and CEO of Solar Sister. The Microfinance Credits will provide immediate and lasting impact in the lives of women and girls by supporting Solar Sister’s solar technology enterprise programs.”

The fourteenth campaign featured at Invent for Humanity the Q Drum Manufacturing Campaign is an ongoing project still in early development stages, and will be eligible for funding at future events.

Nucanoe Is An Angler’s Best Friend

Posted: Jul 17, 2010 |Comments: 0

]]>

Want to take your fishing to the next level with added ease and mobility, without spending much money? Want to catch more fish and enjoy the experience? Meet your “Nu” best friend: The NuCanoe!

Problem #1: I Have To Get To The Fish To Catch Them

“I purchased a NuCanoe about a year ago. I am absolutely delighted with the handling of the NuCanoe as a fishing vessel. I have caught many nice smallmouths in places that I would not have been able to wade and get to.”

- Joel Gonzalez In Illinois

Fishing from the shore can be a relaxing experience, but is not always the most effective way to catch the most fish. Sometimes you need a way to access those just out-of-reach calm pools and overhanging trees where the fish love to hide, as well as the ability to move from place to place to follow the fish. This is where the versatile NuCanoe comes in. Kayak fishing in your NuCanoe puts you in control of your location, without sacrificing stealth. NuCanoe’s superior steering is in part due to its V-shaped hull, which reduces drag and makes the boat easy to control. Catch more fish with a NuCanoe!

Problem #2: I Need Room For My Fishing Gear (And My Beer)

“I just purchased an Adventurer NuCanoe 2 weeks ago. I have already caught more fish from this kayak than I have the past 2 years from a bass
Boat. I love it.”

- G.M., Knoxville, TN.

You don’t have to sacrifice high-tech sport fishing gear for kayak fishing convenience. Your NuCanoe can be outfitted with all the best fishing gear: tackle box, rod holders, anchor system, fish finders, and more. You can add a trolling motor, or choose to silently paddle or row through the water. The versatile NuCanoe Sport Box makes a great fish box, live well, food & beverage cooler, and storage box – it even has two cup holders to keep your drinks safe. Enjoy all your gear and your beer in your NuCanoe!

Problem #3: I Need To Be Comfortable

“I bought a 12? Tandem NuCanoe a few weeks ago and just took it out for the first time. Fantastic! My wife and I fished in great comfort – our OLD kayaks were wet and uncomfortable.

- Sam Joseph In Greensburg, PA

Unlike many fishing kayaks, you can outfit the NuCanoe with upright, supportive seating for 1-3 people, enabling you to stretch your legs and change your position as needed. You can safely stand to stretch and move in the boat. You can choose swivel-mounted seats for additional comfort and maneuverability. An optional bow water shield gives added protection to you and your gear in choppy waters. Relax and fish in comfort in your NuCanoe!

Problem #4: I need a safe, stable boat I can stand in

The NuCanoe is stable enough to permit standing, whether to cast a line or to obtain a better view of the fish lurking below.

- Paddler Magazine

The NuCanoe excels at ensuring your safety. This fishing kayak is wide, stable and hard to tip. The stability of the NuCanoe enables your focus to be on fishing, not on operating the boat or maintaining balance. You can even stand in this boat to stretch, cast, or reel in your fish – it’s that stable. Rest assured that if you do capsize the boat, it will not sink. A sealed hull design provides high internal flotation and allows the NuCanoe to float even if capsized or full of water. Launch your NuCanoe without worry on lakes, rivers, salt water or fresh water – wherever your passion for fishing takes you. Stand up and reel in the big one in your NuCanoe!

Problem #5: I Need A Nucanoe!

Ask your local dealer about the NuCanoe Adventurer and Angler packages. They offer the most versatile, stable, and portable fishing platform of this style an angler can find. All kayak fishing packages come with seat(s), rod holders, paddle holders, and an anchor system – some also include the custom sport box. They can accommodate a trolling motor, if you choose. They can be transported on the roof of a vehicle, the back of a pickup or stacked on a trailer. No other fishing kayak, canoe, or small watercraft gives you this much flexibility, stability, comfort, safety and ease of use. In a word… FISHABILITY!

Among the recent and continued struggles with YTB ( Your Travel Biz) and YTB Outdoors, many of the current and former Directorâ??s and Leaders with YTB, now Zam Zuu are jumping from the sinking ship. The problem with YTB, now Zam Zuu started two years ago when the Attorney General for the state of California slapped a major lawsuit against YTB. Months later, the Attorney General for the state of Illinois filed a similar lawsuit against YTB. The presence of these pending massive lawsuits, sent many YTB Directors and leaders running for the hills. In the months that followed, membership began to drop by the tens of thousands each month and now with membership well below 100,000 reps, the few remaining leaders have found a new home with Letâ??s Get Fishing. The most recent blows to YTB (Zam Zuu) is the recent changes to the â??copyrightedâ?? compensation plan and the new business name change Zam Zuu. YTB has been a travel MLM with its main focus was on creating home based travel agents. YTB travel agents or RTAâ??s (referring travel agents) were allowed to book travel directly through a slew of travel vendors and group cruise bookings. Zam Zuu (YTB) now is shifting its focus away from travel and venturing into new ventures in an attempt to right the ship.
