[METADATA] SDG rating

Goal 9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation

9.4 - By 2030, upgrade infrastructure and retrofit industries to make them sustainable, with increased resource-use efficiency and greater adoption of clean and environmentally sound technologies and industrial processes, with all countries taking action in accordance with their respective capabilities

[SOLUTION] Please describe your proposed solution.

Add Bigger Office

• We will expand our current office resources and add another, larger office that can accommodate 40 individuals in one seating. This expansion will enable us to attend to more students simultaneously. These offices will be located near our existing 7 Gold Reef City small office.

Purchase 20 PCs and 20 laptops

• To enhance our operational capabilities, we plan to increase office equipment and reduce the costs of outsourcing marketing resources. Specifically, we will purchase a multi-function color printer, increase the number of PCs from 10 to 40, and raise the number of laptops from 10 to 40.

2 Full Staff Members

• Additionally, we intend to increase our full-time core staff, as part-time staff may not be available for services when needed the most.

5KV Solar Inverter

• Considering the challenges faced by unemployed IT graduates in South Africa, such as electricity load shedding, limited affordability of internet data, and issues with their PCs/laptops, we will increase in-person office training and work, while reducing remote work. To ensure continuous power and internet access, we will also invest in a 5kv solar/inverter system.

Establish Community Reps

• Furthermore, we plan to offer various online and in-person Cardano work activities in collaboration with effective communities such as IOG development groups, Gimbalabs, Snapbrillia, Atala Prism, Aiken, Helios, Stake Pools, Catalyst Townhalls/hubs, Wada, Mesh, and local work activities with Tobb Technologies, Municipalities, the Security industry, Government, and Education (we have 4 high schools for WIMS-Cardano Girls).

Research, Development and Events

• To expand our reach, we will offer walk-in research and development Cardano activities, accommodating both technical and non-technical individuals interested in Cardano. We will also engage with prospective Cardano enthusiasts.

[IMPACT] Please define the positive impact your project will have on the wider Cardano community.

Promote Cardano Products/Services

• This promotes Cardano, Cardano products, and services among tertiary students who are the country's future leaders.

Partner with Tertiary Institutions

• It makes it possible for tertiary institutions to partner with the Cardano Education System, making Cardano one of South Africa's mainstream blockchains. Students will migrate from web2 to web3 using the Cardano blockchain.

Cardano Communities Collaborations

• This will also create a future market for Cardano's current and future products and services and enable collaboration among international and continental Cardano communities.

Increase Cardano Developer base

• It will increase Cardano's developer base, marketers, and other staff. Since this will contribute to the national solution of reducing unemployment, Cardano will be regarded with high esteem.

Promote CIP-1694, Midnight, Hydra technologies

• This type of engagement creates long-term sustainable results and increases Cardano use cases. Additionally, it will promote CIP-1694, Midnight, and Hydra, as students will learn about these Cardano innovations.

[CAPABILITY & FEASIBILITY] What is your capability to deliver your project with high levels of trust and accountability? How do you intend to validate if your approach is feasible?

We have run Cardano Summits, Events with our own finances before. No reason to be unreliable as we are on Cardano communities growth path

• Approximately 90% of the financial operations at Cardano Centre Johannesburg are attributed to Tobb Technologies Pty Ltd and Women In Move Solutions Pty Ltd. These operations include rentals, equipment expenses, and event costs (e.g., Cardano Summit 2023 Johannesburg) as well as student stipend payments. The Catalyst will support these initiatives, aiding the move towards long-term sustainability and the onboarding of more individuals in South Africa.

Proof the approach will work is we have managed to run it at a small scale for at least 12 months

• From 2015 to 2023, we have dedicated ourselves to developing and operating web applications focused on government/municipalities. These applications encompass tasks such as water and electricity meter reading, disconnections/reconnections, pretermination notice deliveries, and meter location and verification systems/applications.

We successfully produced commercial applications used nationally and have successfully assisted graduates with employment

• Through Tobb Technologies Pty Ltd, the IT software development company, we have successfully produced and implemented web applications. These systems have been thoroughly tested across more than 20 districts, resulting in the generation of over 5 million rands in revenue.

We have a reputation to keep with high schools and tertiary institutions we have partnered with e.g. Richfield, Phoenix, Forest, Hope and we have mastered various programming languages

• The team is composed of full-time and part-time qualified and experienced individuals, working with over 15 different programming languages.

We have been trained in Various Cardano skills

• We took part in Plutus Pioneer training led by Dr. Lars, received training from Gimbalabs, Haskell certification from Luxembourg University, and completed courses on Atala Prism 1 and 2.

Success in running events: Summits(2022,2023), Haskell Hackerthon, CIP-1694, Onboarding

• We are actually using our own finances and resources to build and grow our Cardano communities because we believe Cardano has the best future in crypto communities.
