Opportunity
The opportunity that I'm addressing is the need for a shift in our diet and the inevitable food scarcity that will be occurring by the year 2050 with the rise in our population. There are not enough avenues educating the you on healthy eating choices and my venture concept intends to provide that. Additionally, my concept addresses the issue of food scarcity in inner cities (and beyond). The potential customers are schools and school boards. The product is geared towards students but the school board will be the one purchasing it. This means that I have the challenge of appealing to both the kids and the school board. This opportunity is huge. Every single kid can benefit from eating healthier. The focus of my direction will be to inner city schools because I feel they need the exposure to healthy food the most. That being said, that is not where my initial profit will come from so I will have to start off with targeting schools with more money to spend.
Innovation
My innovation is a school program that combines a vertical plant watering system with an online engagmenet platform to get kids engaged with eating healthy.

ReplyDeleteHey Emily,
ReplyDeleteI was reading over your post and I am very confused about what exactly you are trying to achieve.Your opportunity focuses on food scarcity and how that healthier eating is essential. The innovative part of your venture sounds intriguing with a hydroponic system with the online education. I am missing out on the third element which is the venture concept itself. I think this post has some great ideas in it, just missing the last piece to bring it together for me. I think it is a awesome idea for kids though. If you'd like to check out my blog, it is http://entreprenue-whaaat.blogspot.com/2016/04/venture-concept-no-2.html.
Hey Emily I think you have a great idea mainly because I am a great supporter of healthy eating, although you have a great innovative idea I fail to see the venture concept itself as well as how the needs for this specific product are being met right now while your product is not out in the market. I wish you had gone more in depth in this concept since its such a needed app/software.
ReplyDeletefeel free to checkout my venture concept and keep up the good work:
