Afya Partnership 12/16/2009
Season's greetings from the VertiGrow team! It is certainly a busy time of the year, and we at VertiGrow have been working hard on the project's next phase back home in Cambridge. We are extremely excited to announce our partnership with Afya, the newly formed social enterprise branch of Medicine in Need. VertiGrow will be Afya's first project "adoptee," granting us access to their office spaces in both Cambridge, MA and Pretoria, South Africa, as well as expertise and guidance in business planning, prototype and commercialization support. This is such an honor and tremendous opportunity for VertiGrow; certainly the best holiday gift ever! With Afya's support, we have been designing an initial US market survey and are in negotiation with local manufacturers to produce our new Vertigrow (beta) prototype. We hope to gather as much info as possible from potential Vertigrow users in the US in order to better tailor the development of our new prototype. Stay tuned for more exciting updates! ~Tina Add Comment |
