I fully realize that the vision is too great for one person or a small start-up like New Development. I need your help to fulfill our mission through the various projects. You or your organization/company can choose to support New Development in general or to invest (time or money) only in specific projects that best fit your area of expertise or interest.
We are currently looking for the following:
- Contractors: If you are an individual, passionate about our vision and have any skills that you believe can be useful in making it reality, please contact me. Your skills could include engineering, wildlife management, being a missionary, farmer or other entrepreneur (e.g. with expertise in marketing). As such, you could contract on a part-time (or later full-time) basis and bill me for either hours worked, or work completed.
- Partner non-profit organizations: If you are a non-profit organization or company who share our vision, and who have expertise in one of the disciplines needed to make our mission into reality, I would like to partner with you. Contact me to partner on one or more projects or activities.
- Investors: If you are an individual or company who can invest expertise or money into one of our projects in exchange for shares or profit-sharing in the project's eventual profits, please contact me. However, keep in mind that I would like all New Development intellectual property (IP) to be eventually Open Source and profitability will need to come from being first to market and/or staying ahead of the innovation curve (by keeping new developments as a trade secret until it hits the market). While having our IP as Open Source will mean that anyone can use it to manufacture our products, the licensing will also prevent them from improving our designs without also sharing the IP of the improvements with us.
- Joint venture companies: If you have a company who would like to partner with New Development as a joint venture in one of the new projects, but without actually having shares, you can also contact me. This would be a better fit for those companies who do not want their part of the the project's IP be Open Source.
- Volunteers: If you are an individual who wish to help us reach the New Development goals by donating time or expertise, please contact me.
- Donors: If you want to donate money to specific not-for-profit projects or activities, you can contact me, or use paypal.
- Prayer partners: If you commit to pray regularly for the work and would like to be kept up to date with the progress, please contact me.
