Over the course of our four-month stay at MassChallenge we will develop our first prototype and focus on our entry-to-market strategy. So far, we’ve been lucky to meet some great mentors and advisors who share our vision and have helped us immensely through this process. And while we are primarily focusing on our short term tasks we have tried to stay true to our long term goals, namely, to provide fresh drinking water to remote areas across the world. We think we can incorporate a social aspect after testing potential commercial markets in the U.S.
We’re excited to see what the future has in store for our project. The resources that have been given to us at MassChallenge have been tremendous so far and we think they will be critical for our success. We especially encourage individuals with a background in clean tech or water to reach out to us. You can also reach us via our website. Lastly, we continue to look forward to seeing which new startups will grow from our vibrant community.
