Hi Mr. Botha,

Yes, BYGGOS is still at the idea stage. However it will be ready to hit
the market in approximately 3 to 4 month after the financial injection.


Thanks
Jonathan

Hello Mr. Botha,

My name is Jonathan Teklu, and I am a student at the University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC) majoring in International & Global Studies. Aside from being a student, I am also an entrepreneur with an idea to revolutionize the management of knowledge and information flow through the internet for academia and businesses.

I am the founder and managing owner of Go Hit IT - Success Solutions
for Students, LLC which is the parent company of "BYGGOS - strive to collaborate to innovate".
"This company intends to break down inter-disciplinary and inter-cultural barriers in current academic and professional
environments. BYGGOS places social and professional networking at the center of global eLearning, thereby encouraging inter-disciplinary and inter-cultural involvement and collaborations among students, professors and companies."
The purpose of BYGGOS is to enable academia, industry and businesses
to engage with one another in a collaborative and participative approach
to share, learn, improve, and strive for innovation in science,
engineering and all other disciplines. Using real time collaborative and social software applications, BYGGOS will be able to aggregate information
and distribute this information to the matching knowledge seeker on the BYGGOS network. Whereby the user can create content and add it to the information pool which will be available to everyone that seeks for this
knowledge. By encouraging users to create and access content, BYGGOS enables its
users to administer and sustain their education in a formal as well as in an informal context. BYGGOS also enables industry and businesses to simplify the management of their knowledge and information flow within the organization's
operation framework. By providing a platform that supports real-time communication, full collaboration, 24h business lifecycle support, document/file sharing applications and etc. Wherefore, industries and businesses can communicate and collaborate with ease and high pace with other businesses on one
platform, which will help to reduce communication and administration costs and increase efficiency and productivity.

I am at the point of time where I need funding to further establish
this start-up company. I have attached a business plan to this email, and if
I have successfully peaked your interest in this project, please contact
me.

Thank you


Sincerely,

Jonathan Teklu]





The second investor I identified is a bank;

Name: Erika Clore
Type: VP Business Development Manager
Organization: Sandy Spring Bank
Focus/Industry: Small Business Loans
email: eclore@sandyspringbank.com
Website: www.sandyspringbank.com




First, I wanted to apologize, because I had mistakenly identifies Mr. Moritz as my financier. Somehow I mixed up Mr. Moritz with Mr. Botha. I had contacted both financiers to ensure that they are within my industry, Mr. Botha form Sequoia Capital and Ms. Clore from the Sandy Spring Bank.
