R & D (Research and Duplicate) - Why don't we do it?

[A121]

Takot? Maari siguro takot sa perang gagastusin. Hindi rin kasi biro ang mag-reverse engineering o mag-develop ng panibaging produkto. Pag-aaksayahan mo talaga ng panahon at pera. Tapos iisipin mo, tatangkilikin kaya ng publiko itong produkto ko.

Dati nag-sideline ako sa isang start-up company. Yung thesis nila ginawa nilang business. Medyo nahirapan nga sila dahil sa funding at konti lang yung client nila...

Pero on the other hand, may isa naman akong kaklase na nagtayo rin ng start-up company sa UP-TBI. Ginamit nilang pampondo eh yung mga naipon nila at yung napanalunan nila dahil sa RFID thesis nila. Nahirapan sila nung umpisa kasi nagbi-build-up pa lang sila ng pangalan. After 2 years, mukhang ok na yung company nila at marami na silang proyekto sa RFID.

tayo dami na utang pero karamihan sa bulsa napunta....

ang korea lang, yung korean won halos wala na value, kasi madami silang utang na pinampondo nila sa R & D, sinusuportahan ng government nila ang mga companies for R & D..

it all comes down to funding

you can have the most talented skillful creative people in the world but without funding wala mangyayari... hanggang kwentuhan lang

Internet to the rescue.

If you think you have an innovative invention or product but you lack funding, you can try your luck at kickstarter.com.

that's called crowd funding

wiki:

Crowd funding or crowdfunding (alternately crowd financing, equity crowdfunding, or hyper funding) describes the collective cooperation, attention and trust by people who network and pool their money and other resources together, usually via the internet, to support efforts initiated by other people or organizations.[citation needed] Crowd funding occurs for any variety of purposes,[1] from disaster relief to citizen journalism to artists seeking support from fans, to political campaigns, to funding a startup company, movie [2] or small business[3] or creating free software.

sa major universities sa pinas, mas ginagawang importante pa yung pag-file ng patent. it's kinda sad kasi mas kailangan yung pera na pagpopondo ng start-up.

marami kasing mga problema na community-level na pwede ipa-research sa mga state u. ayaw lang magparesearch kasi mas ok na gawing basketball court at waiting shed yung pondo. hehehe.

walang kasi gusto mag sugal sa R&D

sayang pera

matapos mo pondohan ng ilan taon ang pag develop ng isang produkto kokopyahin lang ng China hehe

Lahat naman ng technology related stuff ay prone to reverse engineering. Instead na dyan ilagay ang pera, eh ibibili na lang ng bagong Hermes na bag.

Cultural problem nga talaga kasi for 60 years, di man lang nag-evolve yung jeepney. Ayaw umisip ng ikabubuti tas ayaw pa maglabas ng pera. Parang sapat na yung bulok na kaisipan. LOL

Yan ang Filipino "pwede na yan" attitude. Basta umaandar at pwedeng pagkakitaan, kahit na 99% itim na usok lumalabas, sumusuka ng langis, coolant at krudo ang makina, kalbo mga gulong, dome light lang ang ilaw sa gabi, at kalahating dosenang bomba sa preno bago kumagat... "pwede na yan".

I think that "Filipino ingenuity" is overrated and many have already forgotten what it really means.. or rather, what it should mean.

like i said pinoys are leisure oriented, end-user consumption oriented

kita mo mga businesses dito sa Pinas -- puro malls, restos, bars, retailers

we are a nation of traders. bili-benta. hindi produce-benta

unlike other Asian economies that are goods producers for the world

money flows into their economies from selling stuff to the world

ang Pinas naman overseas labor ang source ng money flow (and service sector - BPO)

and the money doesnt get invested. it goes directly to end use consumption

asa pa tayo magkakaroon ng innovation and reverse engineering sa atin

wala naman pera napupunta sa ganyan venture
