TAN August Event
Entrepreneurship in Africa has an opportunity to change global economies by focusing on
smaller businesses and local deliveries of products that can be networked to behave with
equal speed, agility and capabilities of any larger company because of instant globalization
and Android Smart Phones. End-to-end results for local manufacturing and/or distribution
can grow reliably while meeting the needs of upward growth into larger economies within
and outside of Africa. Building reliability into your product requires a strategic position to
build reliability into your company.
Incubators for local businesses and local products can produce ultra-capacitors, batteries,
recycling plants, bicycles, solar products, furniture, oxygen generators, or higher tech
products such as carbon fiber and nanotube technology using organic sources such as
wheat husk or other bio waste and bio fuels themselves can be also help building materials.
Even software tools for teaching provide local opportunities while reducing fossil fuel
consumption by 10% to 25% using local businesses. To build locally, one must reach global
reliability capability efficiently and effectively. Adopting and exceeding global standards
places you instantly at or near the top of the competition. Reliability and uniqueness are two
major differentiators for product success.
Finding a global or local social compelling problem will position you quickly as a leader
if you are lucky enough to have a solution. Changing the game or raising the bar using
standards is the easiest way to win over the competition! Creating innovative tactical
strategies for meeting goals require a creative and effective solution. Using an Ounce of
Prevention Strategy that reviews strengths, opportunities, weaknesses and threats is the
beginning of your journey to higher business enlightenment. Exploring Failure Mode and
Effects Analysis brings you to even higher grounds of analytics for good business and risk
management.
These solutions will be discussed at the TAN August 23 Networking event.

Entrepreneurship in Africa has an opportunity to change global economies by focusing on
smaller businesses and local deliveries of products that can be networked to behave with
equal speed, agility and capabilities of any larger company because of instant globalization
and Android Smart Phones. End to end results for local manufacturing and/or distribution
can grow reliably while meeting the needs of upward growth into larger economies within
and outside of Africa.
This example was illustrated why James R. Johnson pulled together engineers from around
the world to invent, develop and commercialize the first micro-interferometric array antenna
technology for re-shaping cell phone energy away from the users head. This stops the
head warming and gives twice the energy back for improving battery life, clarity and faster
data speeds to the handset. After taking the technology to the FCC he challenged telecom
industry exemptions and won along with the hard of hearing users throughout the world.
The hard of hearing represents 10% of all users. His Vortis antenna improves cell phones
for the hard of hearing and once fitted to a cell phone [by design] it will be the only antenna
for improving performance, distance and clarity while reducing energy wasted to the users'
head and increasing battery life.
After building a global presence gaining niche testing and market analysis, Johnson has
gathered his team to focus on Africa's emerging technology markets working with Green
Technology and will be building first working prototypes for immediate distribution. He is
now in early stage and working with partners in Africa along with discussions including seven
African Telecoms for the next seven generations. Africa is the first indigenous nation and we
are proud to launch Earth's First Green Phone to help do it right this time. They are calling
his release "Earth's First Green Phone" and will work jointly with local branding groups.
His technology inside a handset will reduce wasted energy loss by 30% or more thus making
it the greenest technology in the world [focused 4 billion cell phones]. This Vortis makes
other Green Technology Blue! His Ounce of Prevention Strategy for building reliability
into the Vortis launch will demonstrate the value of reliability out the gate to help his small
business take the strategic high ground as it has in China, Europe and India by working
with the standards and customer requirements and then exceeding them or causing
improvements and change to the standards.
