My opinion on few startups at HeadStart!



Curiosity of knowing the other entrepreneurs and the innovation they have been working on, had me stroll around the stalls at HeadStart. I thought may be I should also wet my beak in opining on startups ;) So here is my first take.

1. Artin Dynamics - Nothing major about what they do. But the time during which they are executing this is perfect. When focus is on companies going green, and when focus is on cutting costs, when the focus is on Saving! Good luck guys! Good Timing! 

Products I looked at are worth mentioning - they urge people to save on Phantom power( power that devices consume while they are off). The statistics they have put across are worth looking at. Return of Investment is good enough for companies to buy their products. But this is a market where, anyone can come in quickly. Entry barrier is not there. So beware of others barging into this domain. Good luck and speed up!! 

Artificial intelligence that is built into the software that automatically powers off the devices is where there is scope for scale  and improvement.   

Green Plug has also done similar products to save on phantom power. Also, they have made these plugs common for all. It works with all devices of different wattage requirements.  

All in all, interesting space to be stay tuned. Lets see!

Will post my opinions on Rangde in my next post!
