Today’s roundtable had the concluding portion of the presentations from Pakistan that I talked about last week.
Smart SurgiSol
First, Syed Hassan from Islamabad, Pakistan, pitched Smart SurgiSol, a training solution for surgeons looking to learn how to perform laparoscopic surgery and robotic surgery.
Energime University
Next Bill Sosinsky from Edmonds, Washington, pitched Energime University, a concept that is supposed to solve all the sustainability problems of humanity – food, water, air – in one shot. We didn’t hear anything about how a business was going to be built, except that it was going to be very profitable and high impact. N
Pivot
Then Sidrah Azmat from Karachi, Pakistan, pitched Pivot, a mentoring and investment network for entrepreneurs in Pakistan. Well, this is a pitch that we see every few months. Many attempts have been made to create scalable mentoring networks. By and large, they don’t work. This video will explain why.
