How do you help the mining industry keep track of precious ore shipments worth tens of millions of dollars?

Mining is a trillion-dollar industry and is one of the major employers around the world. 

No matter where you may be, mining has a hand in your daily life.

Despite being a centuries old industry (and even before that), mining industry is technologically very archaic. Most of the processes are still looking back in time and are extremely manual. 

From procurement to production to delivery – each of these steps takes months.

In the mining industry, profit margins are razor-thin which has led to intense competition among mining companies. 

There are many challenges faced by miners in the areas of inventory management, purchase orders, and logistics.

When you're hauling hundreds of millions of dollars worth of ore from one part of the world to another, even an hour's delay can be costly. 

Given the fact that there are so many suppliers, warehouses and delivery services involved with a typical shipment of mining ore, it would be easy to argue that there are more opportunities for things to go wrong.

Mining companies would love to speed things up and increase profit.

Enter enterprise blockchain.

A specialized supply chain solution based on blockchain was constructed for the mining industry. 

The goal of the project is aimed to reduce risk and errors in the mining supply chain.

The solution is used by a consortium of global mining giants to develop trust between existing systems and stakeholders by reducing costs and errors. This technology addresses well-documented issues identified in supply chain management to track the provenance and quality of goods using a distributed ledger technology format.

Early adopters of the technology include names like BHP, Capstone Mining, Wheaton, ING, and many others.

How do you use artificial intelligence and computer vision to help relieve joint pains for millions of patients, when no medication works?

We all have feet.

Yes, feet. 

They carry our weight and give us the ability to take one step at a time. We all have them. And we’d be pretty crippled without them.

But rarely do we stop to ponder the greatness of our feet. The way they carry our weight, they act as shock absorbers when we walk over different terrain.

7 billion pairs of feet exist in this world.

But no two feet are alike – even your own left and right foot are slightly different. 

They have similar roles, but they’re not the same. The right one has a more significant role in gait. It can take the visible burden and hidden work of the left one on less publicized occasions.

Footwear has not changed much in thousands of years. 

Neither has mass production of shoe industry succeeded in convincing us all that there are only 10-15 sizes of shoes needed to protect 7 billion pairs of feet. 

And as we know...the right size and shape of your footwear go a long way towards the comfort and well-being of our own four feet.

Constant pain in your knees, hips, back, and feet can completely ruin your life if your feet are not supported well. 

Enter additive manufacturing and 3D printing.

Using advanced technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, computer vision, and 3D printing - I invented custom-fitted wearable products for feet of all sizes and shapes.

I invented patented technology which could take some pictures from your mobile phone. Measure your feet within 2mm of accuracy.

Then feed those measurements into a complex manufacturing and supply-chain process. I designed and implemented this process in consultation with various industry experts.

The result was a custom manufactured product. Personalized to your exact requirements. Manufactured and shipped to your home within seven days.

No more chronic pain.

No more joint aches.

How do you help millions of travelers share rides and enjoy a long road trip together?

For anyone who has lived in a major metropolis, there is an acute understanding of the need to step out of your house every once in a while. 

Whether it's to stop yourself from going stir-crazy, to appreciate the variety around you, or simply to let off some steam, exploring your city is the best way to get to know it. 

There are numerous arts, music and fun festivals, and popular community events occurring around the globe. 

Community events are always a good time. Not only are you supporting your community in a wide array of ways, but you’ll meet new people and enjoy the company of those you already know.

There are many festivals celebrated every year in different areas of the world. And when there is a celebration, people from all over the local community will gather to enjoy and participate in various cultural activities and entertainment. Generally, you need to drive to remote locations to attend these cultural festivals unless you are lucky enough to live in the area itself.

While it may seem like everyone looks forward to these events, the only problem is that most of these cultural events and festivals are held in far-flung locations that do not have adequate public transportation. 

Enter a unique ridesharing app.

It allows the travelers to connect with other groups of travelers going to the same event. They can pool their time, money, and resources to go to the event together and connect along the way.

Implemented a unique search engine for local events. One-of-a-kind payment system which divided the transaction amount between multiple parties based on very dynamic business rules.

If you get out of the ordinary way of traveling and share resource, one can easily cut down their expenses, and actually see what they were always looking out for.

How do you turn 100,000 households living in large concrete buildings into friends and a community?

A concrete jungle is a term that generally refers to urban environments, usually with large skyscrapers and towering buildings. 

When people refer to concrete jungles, the surrounding environment is often crowded, soulless, and loud due to the many people and cars. 

The term may be applied to cities, such as New York and other major cities.

A certain amount of intimacy is lost when we spend our lives surrounded by strangers in these jam-packed buildings.

Neighbors, by definition, live in close proximity to each other. They may share a wall or even share the same roof! In theory, they could rely on each other for help, but in reality, that rarely happens.

Many of the residents feel lonely even when surrounded by acquaintances or friends. 

Moreover, the building systems are still paper-based, slow and error-prone. These systems consume lots of time for accounting, plan checking, verification, financing, and monitoring. 

Want to book an elevator? Send an email or fax to the property manager.

Want to book a common room for your kid's birthday party? Fax a request.

Want to get a leak fixed? Well, good luck with that.

Just like the residents subside and forget that they live in a building with longstanding maintenance problems, property managers involved in the building management also blot out their own inability to run the building properly.

Enter a unique social media platform and essential utility for the residents of these multi-dwelling buildings.

It connected the neighbors.

Allowed them to organize weekend parties. Find sports partners. Share rides.

Above all, it combined the massive purchasing and bargaining power of hundreds of residents to find better deals on essentials like insurance, groceries, and much more.

Partnered with some of the largest real estate developers in Canada.

Onboarded more than 100,000 households on the platform.

MY STORY
I grew up in a small town. A friendly child, my home was troubled. I withdrew into my shell, becoming aloof and angry. At age 15, I started working in a factory. I worked 12 hours/day with only $2 as a daily salary.

In 1995, a new computer institute (Aptech) threw its doors open in my town. Tuition was greater than a year’s salary, but I scraped together funds for the first class where I found my passion: Computers and Programming. I met my wife there, and we fell madly in love. Our marriage was disapproved of by my family… 

Ultimately, I had to run away from home with only a suitcase full of clothes. After our marriage, we traveled to Canada and started a new life.

While in Canada, I had to overcome enormous challenges. Today, I am excelling and inspiring others to pursue their dreams.

Going from $2/day to the boardrooms of Fortune 500 reinforced my belief that anything is possible.

No matter how far you go in life, never forget your roots.

That’s what I was reminded of during a heartfelt conversation with 

𝗠𝗿. 𝗠𝗮𝘀𝗮𝗸𝘂𝗶 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝗴𝘀𝘂𝗻𝗴, 

Consul General of India in Vancouver.

We were both invited to speak on a panel 

about the future of human intelligence, 

AI 

and technology. 

Around us were bright minds, 

complex ideas, 

and high-powered discussions 

about data, systems, and innovation.

But when Mr. Rungsung spoke, 

the room went quiet.

He didn’t talk about algorithms or automation. 

He talked about 𝘩𝘰𝘮𝘦. 

About the teachers, 

neighbors, 

and small communities that shape who we become. 

And how no matter where life takes us 

to a new city, 

a new career, 

or a new stage 

our roots are what keep us human.

What struck me most wasn’t just his words, 

but his calm presence. 

You could feel decades of wisdom 

and experience behind every sentence 

the kind that doesn’t come from titles, 

but from 𝘵𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩.

So today, 

I want to take a moment to celebrate 

𝗠𝗿. 𝗥𝘂𝗻𝗴𝘀𝘂𝗻𝗴 

not just for his accomplishments, 

but for the quiet dignity with 

which he carries the spirit of India 

everywhere he goes.

If his story inspires you even a little 

drop a few words of appreciation in the comments below. 

Let’s fill this thread with gratitude 

for those who remind us of where we come from.
