Quotes and Highlights
- About technology and education. I really think you need to be educated in I.T to really be effective in today’s world. But when I got in I was a neophyte, I didn’t know anything about technology but I always had that interest in technology since my childhood. I was lucky that when I went to Boston I received 2-months training in IT before starting my career as a technical recruiter, it was very intense and I learnt a lot about different aspects of technology. In a way I was forced to have to learn technology to be a good recruiter. I then learnt that being savvy in technology is critical for most jobs today.”
- First steps in blockchain. Since 2016 I have been working in the Blockchain arena, and bought my first Bitcoin in 2015. I believe Blockchain will have a significant impact on the World, and I am humbled and excited to be part of that.
- Understanding blockchain. I am focused on helping companies understand the value that Blockchain can bring, and putting together a strategy that will enable them to integrate Blockchain, or build new custom applications to realize its value. Helping companies understand Blockchain, the best value proposition, and working to develop MVP/POC projects to demonstrate that value. We have assembled a world-class team and great partners that help us provide our clients with turn-key solutions.
- About blockchain and AI.: demystifying the myths. With blockchain and AI, they are actual enhancements integration to technology, so when blockchain better works when it is integrated in existing systems as an enhanced functionality and makes those systems better.
- About Covid-19 and new solutions. Accubits actually has a biotech research arm that has virologists and microbiologists, so when COVID-19 hit, they stopped all the research they were doing and jumped in on COVID-19. This is a major problem and maybe we can help, they said. And through this research they found a molecule that they thought could potentially be a key to a cure. Unfortunately they didn’t have the resources to move forward with that discovery so they open sourced it so other researchers could use it.
- About RebuildTheChain. As the team at Accubits saw this disease was going to be hard to treat they understood that the only way to kind of have a tool that governments could use to effectively manage people, help with social distancing, create the ability for the people to see where hot spots were, etc. With this tool, which also features a health card you can get issued to prove you have passed the COVID-19 and are free. It is a truly helpful tech solution.
- About Future Tech. Future Tech is a joint venture between my company, Accubits and Cybermate infotech and the focus of the company was basically combine all of our capabilities together to provide one tech solution to different problems efficiently.
