      I’m definitely not here for the money! We’re working towards a device which is specifically tailored to homes in poor communities in developing countries. There’s a lot of research which actually says that charity doesn’t really work, as a builds reliance and fails to bring about change. By developing a device which is as cheap as possible and selling it on a not-for-profit basis we’ll be able to help build new economies and help communities bring themselves out of poverty through development.
