 Mae gweithio'n ddweud. Rwy'n ddweud. Mae'r unig fyddiad o'r gweithio, a gwybod o'r newid ymdrygiadau sydd wedi'i ei fod yn bwysig. Felly bydd yma'r gweithio'r ffordd i'r gweithio'r gweithio. Yn mynd ymddir yw, mae'n mynd yw'r mynd, mae'n mynd i'r ysgolwch, oedd ymdarlunau o'r cyfnodol, a'u gweld hwnnw'n gweithio of, first of all, a database in which technology providers can upload environmentally sustainable technologies and make them available for licensing to other parties and in which persons or enterprises may also upload their needs and specify what it is they're looking for, what the problem is, what they need assistance on and how technology can be useful to them and associated with that technology exchange we have certain other activities designed to build capacity really in the area of environmentally sustainable technologies. Why is this particular facility, which I've just described, important? Well, I think we're all acutely aware of the challenge of climate change and of the need to adapt our whole economy first and society secondly to environmentally sustainable technologies and environmentally sustainable lifestyles. How are we going to achieve that objective? Well, technology and innovation are the major instrumentalities. Innovation is absolutely needed to develop, well, better sources of energy, alternative sources of energy, technology to save the use of energy to new forms of transportation, new and green forms of agriculture or forestry right across the economy and absolutely everything we do technology can assist us in reducing our carbon footprint and in obtaining carbon neutrality. Technology marketplaces in general are perhaps not as transparent as they should be, meaning that it's more difficult to find technologies perhaps than it should be or than we would like it to be so this particular exchange contributes to the objective of innovation in the field of green technology by adding a dimension of much greater transparency for the technology marketplace. It also contributes to the diffusion of technologies that have been developed. Once you have innovation you need to get it diffused across the economy. We would underline that it is a multi-stakeholder program. It's multi-disciplinary and it's multi-entity in the sense that if you look at the partners who are associated with this you will find public enterprises, private enterprises, universities, commercial companies, small and medium enterprises, start-ups, enterprises from developing countries and enterprises that are extremely advanced from the developed countries. I would like to record our special thanks to the Japan Intellectual Property Association, which is an association of companies in Japan which has in particular helped us in putting this facility together. So perhaps I'll stop my remarks there. Thank you. Questions? I was just wondering when exactly it was started this new project and how come it is so little and I would expect much more companies joining it. This is the launch, so it's official start date is today. Up until now we've had a prototype because in order to encourage companies to participate we have to show them what the beast looks like, how it is going to operate. We have been very pleased with the rate of addition of new companies actually. Yeah sure, we've got a long way to go but you have to start somewhere and this is the start and we notice that we're getting at this stage in the last week a new company per day. My apologies for being late. Very quickly, so how would you see this operating? I mean basically I'm a small company, I want to have more information or I'm a large company, I want to do something on the ground. Could you perhaps explain this? So what I was saying earlier is that really there is perhaps less than optimal transparency in technology marketplaces and this is a contribution to improving the transparency of technology marketplaces. So that means that if you're a seller of technologies, if you're a provider of technologies, it is going to assist you in making your technologies better known and to a wider audience. If you are looking for technologies, it is a place that you can go to where you can search to see what is available and where you can also specify your needs and a provider can come in and make suggestions as to how they can satisfy your needs. So you'll have a team, sort of an online team which will give suggestions and be putting people in touch with each other? That's right, so we are the facilitators only. So we're the facilitators, we're the connectors, if you like, of the buyers and the sellers or the providers and the suppliers and the users. And so to a certain extent it should act on its own. People should come as to any marketplace and look for what they want. I mean, we'll just come back here. I mean, for example, bamboo bikes, now what would they, what would they, bamboo bikes initiative in Ghana? Were they going to be speaking this afternoon? They will be, Phil, who is from here. Phil, come, come, enjoy this. Thank you. I'm just trying to visit. Please do, yeah, yeah, no, no, please. My name is Philip Stevens, I'm on the team that helped establish this initiative. So bamboo bikes, for example, is a small enterprise in Ghana that has quite an interesting product. It's a bicycle made out of bamboo, so that qualifies as being environmentally sustainable. Obviously being in her particular situation, it's difficult to reach a wider market. I think she thinks that many more countries would benefit from this product. So what Waipo Green can do will allow her to upload her particular technology to the database, which will then be accessible to people in other countries other than Ghana. So what it's essentially doing is giving her a much greater platform than she would have by herself. Do you have any more examples, just interesting little quotes? At the moment we're at the prototype stage, so we're still amassing technologies. I can't give any specific examples off the top of my head, but there's some quite advanced technologies, particularly from Japan, and then to the other end of the spectrum we have quite new products like the bamboo bike. If I'm not mistaken, we're over 1,000 uploads, technology uploads already. As of today, we hope to expand that considerably over the next few months. Bamboo bikes are speaking this afternoon, right? They are, yes. Bernice Dapras, the Managing Director of Bamboo Bikes, will be at Waipo Arcade Bosch Building available for interview if you'd like to speak to her. There's also a small exhibition showcasing some of the technologies that have been included, including the bamboo bike. I believe we have a bamboo bike. We do, yes. We have the bike itself in attendance. I think it's leveraging the power of the internet to expand the marketplace and to give providers a much broader audience and a much bigger platform on which to get their products out there, and also to enable consumers or users to have much better access to worldwide technologies. Well, thank you very much for coming and hope you'll join us across the screen at 3 o'clock today. Great. Thanks very much.
