Changing the world, 18 minutes at a time

If last year’s TEDxPetalingStreet was a harrowing first time experience, this round at TEDxNUS it was slightly better.

Spent the Saturday attending TedX talk in NUS, where aspiring speakers from different background come together to share their vision and dream. Jiin Joo once again sharing the vision of drones in agriculture, where technology is actually most needed but neglected because of the lack of awareness.

Not exactly because it’s in English – turns out that the subject matter is the hard one to tell, regardless of language – but primarily because the story is “getting real”, and I could project further and further into the future.

1.5 years have past between November 2015 and March 2017. We built a more stable team, have a productive operations team for plantations, launched Garuda Plex for our users, and have a whole slew of agriculture focused innovation lined up for the year.

So while things get busy with existing use cases, as illustrated in these 2 TED talks, it’s time to invest more effort into making the future happen.
