If we ask you today to tell us a short story about your life in a metropolitan city, what are you going to tell? The 24/7 busy crowd, the uproar of the vehicles, the hassles, and the hecticness of daily life; aren’t these the traditional ingredients of our lives in a big city? Water clogging, traffic jams, daily banters with delivery boys, and amid all these, our constant struggle to maintain a quality lifestyle in a city that never sleeps. No matter how individual we are, this storyline will always bind us in one common thread.
The lives of city dwellers are rendered with different services to make their routine a bit more hassle-free. Service-providing companies have to face high competition to reach appropriate consumers and establish a loyal customer base. The faster you deliver quality products, the more you receive satisfactory remarks from their ends.
Nevertheless, the qualities of these services, which are supposed to offer you a good quality life, are often questionable!
So today, here we are, searching for effective and sustainable ideas to mitigate the daily life problems in metropolitan cities and offer our citizens a more easy-going lifestyle.
With this object, Black Brains is presenting you ‘Ideation 1.0’ with a motto of “Innovate to Elevate“
