As a team member, сan you tell us about your role in the ICO project?
Since 2014 I've been working as an Educator w/ Ala and others within an African consortium and upon several creative initiatives, including NewAfricaRadio.Net (co-founder); to empower, unite and teach blockchain and crypto education through local African communities. The PLAAS project and Roadmap is the maturation of such ideas towards one such initiative, some of whose roots began in the communication forums, and team assembled based on continued networking of these early efforts.
As an Advisor on this project, I'm already planted on the West Coast conference circuit and I participate in representing and sharing the PLAAS project solution and Alakanani's vision with numerous investors (and investor groups) influencers and like-minded individuals within my social and business circles and co-opt Events/ Conferences throughout (mainly) California. Additionally, the project is given airtime on www.NewAfricaRadio.Net.
What do you think about idea?
I've had the privilege of both following and being friends with Alakanani in the crypto space for over 4 years now. She demonstrates excellent and visionary, yet humble, leadership skills and is renowned and respected throughout Africa as "The Bitcoin Lady Botswana." I've had the pleasure of seeing her idea of Satoshi Centre Pty., Ltd. come to fruition, thereby executing her vision and giving school children and young entrepreneurial minded students a place to learn blockchain coding, website and Dapp's building, very early in life. Her love for teaching is only outshined by her motivation to create and implement real-world solutions in areas which can be improved using the blockchain.
PLAAS project robustly elucidates a brand new farm-to-market, supply chain management application model by incorporating several time-tested technologies (such as RFID and other sensor utilization) along with novel solution efficiencies (such as improving compliance and reporting capabilities, as well as mitigating any various "chicanery" along the way, through clear accountability, unreservedly, throughout the process).
Together, via blockchain and through the PLAAS Token approach (which also includes its own "Proof of Extinction" and "branding" standards), a brilliant new recipe is created for timely and transparent context into entirely new economic channels. These channels now incentivize broader participation across the agricultural operations: from farmer, to government to consumer, to investor, etc. This management system and its Token become the catalyst for a whole spectrum of outside stimulus - encouraging stronger and more unique cooperatives, Govt. grants, Public or Private loans and even family-budgeting enticements via simply "tuning in" to the PLAAS blockchain!
I love that Ala and her Team have chosen and articulated so well a cost-effective method and means to streamline an advancement for farmers and in finance by placing a system overview for doing so right in the palm of everyone's hand who stands to benefit from it. Particularly Africans!
