INTRODUCTION
                                                                                          BACKGROUND

                                Bipper is the story about a young mother of three with a big heart for the most important
                                things in life. Founder Silje Vallestad is a true idealist who planned for a career in
                                international peace work but who ended up starting up a mobile venture when she
                                found herself shocked to learn that children as young as 6 years old were mobile
                                phone users. Realizing that her own then six year old daughter soon might want her
                                own cell phone, she started doing thorough market research only to conclude that
                                none of the products on the market satisfied her need to provide her daughter with a
                                safe and secure solution.

                                Motivated by wanting children to be ”safe while mobile” she founded Bipper
                                Communication in 2007 to develop an innovative and safe mobile communication
                                concept for children. She had no knowledge of either technology nor
                                telecommunication, only a vision of the product she wanted for herself and her young
                                family.

                                Within few months she managed to secure the interest of respected investors and a

                                      A GENERATION OF MOBILE KIDS
                                          Children everywhere are getting their first mobile
                                          phone at a younger and younger age. The mobile
                                          penetration among children is increasing drastically,
                                          and it is estimated that all school children will have a
                                          mobile solution by 2015.

                                          IDC analyses has predicted that the 9-and-under
                                          market will increase to nine million users in the United
                                          States and $1.6 billion in revenue within few years.

                                          Market research has identified five issues relating to
                                          children’s use of mobile phones:

                                          •    Mobile bullying:
                                               Nearly 20 % of kids are bullied through mobile
                                               phones

                                          •    Contact with strangers:
                                               For 8 of 10 parents contact with unknown adults
                                               is their greatest fear!

                                          •    High bills:
                                               Content is expensive, and 70 % of kids purchase
                                               content

                                          •    Stress:
                                               Being available 24/7 causes stress symptoms

                                          •    Radiation:
                                               Parents fear radiation, but they still purchase
                                               phones

MARKET
RESEARCH
           PARENTS’ 4 NEEDS
           For three years Bipper has continuously carried out market research. Hundreds of parents
           have participated in market surveys, focus groups and interviews, and in addition, Bipper
           has had access to several international surveys and reports. Four main needs were
           identified:

           1.  Communication & safety
               Parents want to be able to communicate with their children. This makes them feel safer,
               and their everyday lives easier. Cell phones makes this possible. International surveys
               conclude that parents’ own need for safety is the main reason for buying a mobile for
               their child (nearly 80 %).

           2.  Control
               Parents view cell phones as ‘adult’ products not suitable for kids, but they are the only
               available option for easy communication. Parents want to be able to decide how the
               phones can be used. They want to be responsible parents in the new digital world.

           3.  Location
               Parents want to be able to locate their children.
               Either by calling/texting them to find out where
               they are, or by location services. Over 70 % of
               parents are positive to location services.

           4.  Family plans and cool phones
               Parents are concerned about the phone bill.
               They often prefer family plans. Parents are also
               concerned about their children fitting in. They
               want to give their kids the ‘right’ phone. If the
               phone is un-cool, it will be left at home!
MARKET
RESEARCH
           CURRENT SOLUTIONS
           A small range of services to make mobile phones safer for children or enable tracking, are
           available:

           •    Kiddy phones
                A number of companies have developed mobile phones for children. All of these
                products have in common that they resemble toys. While most of these companies
                failed because they did not realize that kids don’t want childish phones, Firefly Mobile
                is still around.
           •    Children only Operators / MVNOs
                Operators or MVNO only serving the child and teen market offering phones and plans
                with safety features. US based Kajeet launched in 2007, and Danish Wigomo
                launched in 2009.
           •    Operator services
                Very few operators have targeted children, and Wireless analysts believe this is
                because they want to avoid looking like Joe Camel and preying on children. Two
                solutions existing now are Telenor’s ‘Bullying filter’ and AT&T’s smart limits
           •    Location Services
                LBS-based location services are offered by several providers to locate mobile phones

            BRAND BUILDING IN FOCUS

            Bipper targets the global market with its safe and innovative
            communication solution for parents and children. As there are currently
            still only a handful of extensive solutions for children available globally,
            Bipper has an early mover advantage. Furthermore Bipper is the only
            known solution flexible enough to serve both the end-user, the operator,
            the handset manufacturer and the AppStore.

            Still – the main advantage of Bipper is not the technology platform or
            software. The number of competitors will without doubt increase rapidly
            over the next few years, and any technology concept is easily
            reproduced once publicly known.

            Bipper’s main advantage is the story, and through its idealistic and
            inspiring founder as the front person Bipper will build a strong and
            credible brand.

            Bipper is about safety, trust and community involvement. It’s about the
            story of a young idealistic mother with a highly profiled network who
            gave up her career in international peace work to create what her and
            other parents needed.

            Bipper aims to build a brand that parents identify with. A brand that
            speaks to them and offers safety. A brand that is not corporate but
            speaks from the heart to the heart.

            Bipper is unique!

                   In 2004 former professional footballer Tommy Nilsen travelled
                   to Rio de Janeiro to say goodbye to soccer. His career as a
                   top division player in Norway had suddenly come to an end
                   due to a serious knee injury.

                   He fell in love with both a girl and the country, and has since
                   devoted his life to giving over 200 poor young boys from the
                   slums of Rio a new life. He provides food and soccer practice,
                   but demands that his boys stay away from crime and drugs
                   and attend school. It’s about social training!

                   His dream is a large soccer center for poor boys and girls
                   providing safety, food, education and soccer practice.

                   Bipper and our DoGood foundation will help make this
                   happen. $ 1000 per DoGood project carried out and

              THE FOUNDER

              Silje Vallestad is a young mother of three, and highly educated within
              economics and management. She was voted the Economics Student of the

              Vallestad has since the age of 14 been a driving force within several
              volunteer organizations both on a local, national and international level.
              Innovative thinking and conceptualizing new ideas has been a central part
              in all her engagements. She developed an extensive international network
              while she was studying at United World College of the Atlantic (1995-1997)
              which has played an important factor in her work.

              In 1997 she and Jonathan Robinson founded an International organization
              called World Voices and she received the coveted Ole Vig’s Award for her
              work with the book “Do you have a moment?” which was one of the
              organizations initiatives. In 1998, she played a vital part in establishing
              Students Forum 2000 (Prague) under the guidance of President Vaclav Havel.
              She has participated at several prestigious international conferences as a
              youth delegate and through her engagement has had the opportunity to
              collaborate with people like The Dalai Lama, Hillary Clinton, Fredrik Willem De
              Klerk, Arne Naess, Vigdis Finnbogadottir and Anita Roddick.

              Silje is an entrepreneur minded innovative thinker by nature, and has
              extensive experience as a communicator and project manager. She has
              repeatedly proven that she can successfully execute on the projects and
              initiatives she starts. Silje was appointed Female Entrepreneurship
              Ambassador for Europe by the European Union in October 2010.

              More information about Vallestad can be found on: www.vallestad.net.

Company presentation, january 2010

  • 1. COMPANY PRESENTATION January 2010 © Bipper Communication AS Strictly confidential
  • 2. INTRODUCTION BACKGROUND Bipper is the story about a young mother of three with a big heart for the most important things in life. Founder Silje Vallestad is a true idealist who planned for a career in international peace work but who ended up starting up a mobile venture when she found herself shocked to learn that children as young as 6 years old were mobile phone users. Realizing that her own then six year old daughter soon might want her own cell phone, she started doing thorough market research only to conclude that none of the products on the market satisfied her need to provide her daughter with a safe and secure solution. Motivated by wanting children to be ”safe while mobile” she founded Bipper Communication in 2007 to develop an innovative and safe mobile communication concept for children. She had no knowledge of either technology nor telecommunication, only a vision of the product she wanted for herself and her young family. Within few months she managed to secure the interest of respected investors and a •  !"#$%&'(#)*+# small team of industry experts, and the team has since grown stronger and stronger.

  • 4. MARKET RESEARCH A GENERATION OF MOBILE KIDS Children everywhere are getting their first mobile phone at a younger and younger age. The mobile penetration among children is increasing drastically, and it is estimated that all school children will have a mobile solution by 2015. IDC analyses has predicted that the 9-and-under market will increase to nine million users in the United States and $1.6 billion in revenue within few years. Market research has identified five issues relating to children’s use of mobile phones: •  Mobile bullying: Nearly 20 % of kids are bullied through mobile phones •  Contact with strangers: For 8 of 10 parents contact with unknown adults is their greatest fear! •  High bills: Content is expensive, and 70 % of kids purchase content •  Stress: Being available 24/7 causes stress symptoms •  Radiation: Parents fear radiation, but they still purchase phones Source: MobileYouth, 2008 report
  • 5. MARKET RESEARCH PARENTS’ 4 NEEDS For three years Bipper has continuously carried out market research. Hundreds of parents have participated in market surveys, focus groups and interviews, and in addition, Bipper has had access to several international surveys and reports. Four main needs were identified: 1.  Communication & safety Parents want to be able to communicate with their children. This makes them feel safer, and their everyday lives easier. Cell phones makes this possible. International surveys conclude that parents’ own need for safety is the main reason for buying a mobile for their child (nearly 80 %). 2.  Control Parents view cell phones as ‘adult’ products not suitable for kids, but they are the only available option for easy communication. Parents want to be able to decide how the phones can be used. They want to be responsible parents in the new digital world. 3.  Location Parents want to be able to locate their children. Either by calling/texting them to find out where they are, or by location services. Over 70 % of parents are positive to location services. 4.  Family plans and cool phones Parents are concerned about the phone bill. They often prefer family plans. Parents are also concerned about their children fitting in. They want to give their kids the ‘right’ phone. If the phone is un-cool, it will be left at home!
  • 6. MARKET RESEARCH CURRENT SOLUTIONS A small range of services to make mobile phones safer for children or enable tracking, are available: •  Kiddy phones A number of companies have developed mobile phones for children. All of these products have in common that they resemble toys. While most of these companies failed because they did not realize that kids don’t want childish phones, Firefly Mobile is still around. •  Children only Operators / MVNOs Operators or MVNO only serving the child and teen market offering phones and plans with safety features. US based Kajeet launched in 2007, and Danish Wigomo launched in 2009. •  Operator services Very few operators have targeted children, and Wireless analysts believe this is because they want to avoid looking like Joe Camel and preying on children. Two solutions existing now are Telenor’s ‘Bullying filter’ and AT&T’s smart limits •  Location Services LBS-based location services are offered by several providers to locate mobile phones Location solutions are typically priced at $ 10 per month, while the safety filters offered by Kajeet and operators are priced at $ 5-10 per month (positioning not included)
  • 7. MARKET RESEARCH MEDIACLIPS Save the children has discovered that children view mobile phones and computers as adult free zones where grown ups do not know what is going on! 40 % of children state to have been contacted by strangers while using digital technology. When phone numbers are distributed online, there is a low barrier to personal contact.

  • 20. MARKETING & PROFILE BRAND BUILDING IN FOCUS Bipper targets the global market with its safe and innovative communication solution for parents and children. As there are currently still only a handful of extensive solutions for children available globally, Bipper has an early mover advantage. Furthermore Bipper is the only known solution flexible enough to serve both the end-user, the operator, the handset manufacturer and the AppStore. Still – the main advantage of Bipper is not the technology platform or software. The number of competitors will without doubt increase rapidly over the next few years, and any technology concept is easily reproduced once publicly known. Bipper’s main advantage is the story, and through its idealistic and inspiring founder as the front person Bipper will build a strong and credible brand. Bipper is about safety, trust and community involvement. It’s about the story of a young idealistic mother with a highly profiled network who gave up her career in international peace work to create what her and other parents needed. Bipper aims to build a brand that parents identify with. A brand that speaks to them and offers safety. A brand that is not corporate but speaks from the heart to the heart. Bipper is unique!
