This presentation illustrates how companies can boost their R&D capabilities by engaging with 3S Mobile to help generate and explore ideas.

1. 1
Innovation on tap

2. 2
Innovation and speed
Business in today’s world
We live in a dynamic time where innovation and execution speed
are rewarded more than ever while companies who fail to
innovate are left behind

3. 3
Sometimes a new idea
changes everything

4. 4
Finding that
elusive idea
Imagine being able to give your R&D
capabilities a boost whenever you
wanted additional ideas.
Think of 3S Mobile as an R&D extension
that can be switched on whenever you
want to explore emerging technologies.
We help ideate, prototype and create
minimal viable products (MVP) that
result in real market response data so
you quickly know which are the winning
ideas.
New ideas
3S Mobile brings a fresh
perspective and experience
with the innovation process
More innovation
Explore the feasibility of
multiple paths by
prototyping and market
testing the strongest ideas
Faster execution
Do more projects in parallel
by scaling up resources
only when needed
Quality
A Swiss approach to
building solutions that are
well designed and tested
No fixed costs
Extra R&D without the
permanent costs

Quality Software Development
The way it’s built matters
Architecture
The architecture greatly
influences how scalable
and flexible the solution
is
Quality Assurance
We build and test
software with a high-
quality approach at
every step of the
process
Code Design
How the code is written
determines quality and
maintainability of the
software over the long run

11. Case Study 1: Kilimo Salama
Award winning weather micro-insurance solution for farmers in Africa
Watch video: https://goo.gl/wJCsXd Watch video: https://goo.gl/HAKKPL

previously excluded from insurance due to the traditionally high costs of processing policies in rural areas. Innovative
use of Mobile technology enabled a completely different business model to be used and opened up a new market
while helping farmers to reduce their individual risks.

12. Case Study 1: Kilimo Salama
Award winning weather micro-insurance solution for farmers in Africa
• Won the Financial Times award for Technology in Sustainable Finance
• Has become the largest micro-insurance scheme in Africa
• Co-created a patent on the technology and business model for our client
• Various articles and books have written about Kilimo Salama as an innovative
example of how to solve the last-mile issues that often thwart micro-
insurance programs

17. Our Product: QuickTrials
A faster, easier way to collect and analyse field trials
Agricultural field trials are often labour intensive because of the effort required to record measurements, collect
records from multiple sites and then aggregate and analyse all the data. The QuickTrials solution streamlines the
process by enabling measurements to be collected on mobile devices which synced data directly to the cloud in a
format that can be immediately analysed.

18. Our Product: QuickTrials
A faster, easier way to collect and analyse field trials
• Field trials can be defined and distributed rapidly
• Improved accuracy and more consistent data
• A powerful hypercube is used to stored the data
• Trials can have any many dimensions and any number of parameters
• Data can be collected offline and synced whenever a network exists
• Results can be analysed as the data comes off the field, leading to earlier insights
• More info available at www.quicktrials.com
