ERP Software development

I believe the future of developing ERP software lies in an evolutionary design process rather than a planned design process. Businesses are constantly in movement and therefore changing software should follow and support this evolutionary process.

Old: design - build - use for x years
New: constant process of improving your software to support the ever changing business processes

Silicon Ink to generate power


Innovalight is working on a product called "Silicon Ink" that can be used to replace solar cells. According to the company the product is a lot more environmentally friendly and a lot more flexible than the current solar panels.

This invention has the potential to become an additional power source for mobile devices.

Key attributes of silicon nanocrystals:
Tunable (absorption and emission wavelengths)

  • Non toxic
  • Solution process capable
  • Stable and reliable
  • Low cost manufacturing
