Design, Development & Dancing with the Devil

You know, starting a company is hard work. However, it is a lot easier when you get to collaborate with really knowledgeable, straightforward and fun people. That's where we are - we are now a week away from freezing the "skeleton" of the web platform. Now for completing the skeleton, one has to visualize what one wants in the end and then go backwards, into the deep end, into the details, where the devil is. This my friends, is the tough part of the journey.

Seed Capital & Core Team done!

In the past few weeks, majamba connected with over 25 people with diverse and interesting backgrounds. Thank you for listening to the vision. Some think that the idea is too ambitious. However, there is enough critical mass to move to the next phase of the project. I have scaled the business plan to fit the available seed. And the core team will be made up of freelancers. Majamba will start recruiting when the revenue starts to flow. Now the next challenge is to develop the "beta" version of the majamba service.

So in the past 3 months, I have gone from the decision to start the company, registering the company, developing the business plan, making the pitch to 25 people, securing the seed capital, securing the core start-up team in Lausanne, New York and New Delhi to starting the development.

Once again, I would like to thank you for your kindness and your support.

I pitch, therefore I am

I continue to look for two types of serious investors - the first type is made up of people who want to "do good" in Switzerland and want to be part of the start-up team. The second type of investors are people who want to invest in projects that do good.

Some of you have asked me - what is the project about? So here are the highlights - majamba is a social enterprise, focussed on bridging the "digital divide"; create about 800 new jobs; innovate continuously and help build a company that does good - good for the society, good for the employees; good for the partners; good for the investors; and good for the environment.

Ambitious, you say. I say - it's possible!
