Haji Palli is a small village in the southern Indian state of Telangana. This model village today is a buzz with activity as it welcomes guests from far away lands. Walking in its biolanes are people from an amazing number of countries. Libya, Ethiopia, Mauritius, Tanzania, Iran, Tunisia, Bhutan, Ghana, Zimbabwe, Afghanistan, Jordan, Nigeria, Sudan and Vietnam are all represented here in Haji Palli today. Inside the village school, language is no barrier to communication quite clearly. As the school children in their honor sing poems in Telugu, the local language, Francis from Ghana happily sings along while the others observe intently. Why? You may ask. How? You may want to know. Whatever for? You may even inquire. You must mention that the technological acumen here is of great importance. It's very high. It will surely benefit me and definitely benefit my country. I actually came here to improve my specialty on oil flow, measurement and calibration. When I started reading the information, I really, really wanted to come here. I've been selected from the Mauritius Police Force to attend the admins, fingerprints, science. I'm proud that I have performed my MTech from IIT Roorkee. I get to know that there is an ITICS scholarship for the whole Sudanese officers and I was very lucky to apply and got the chance to make the interview and finally here doing my MTech at IIT Roorkee. Well, these young men and women belong to a multitude of professionals who visit India year after year. They come from 161 countries to share India's experience of development under the Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation Program or ITEC. Coming here, I have seen that the Indian government will have been opted that I wouldn't waste my money to train other people because there are people in India who still need these small monies but the Indian government has said that no, let us go and bring people from outside and come and train them. It's a very wonderful recommendation I would do anywhere I get a platform. ITEC No Doubt is a unique endeavor. However, it is only one strand of India's Developmental Cooperation Initiative. Extension of concessional lines of credit, assistance to help build infrastructure, humanitarian support and relief when disaster strikes, deputation of experts and provision of consultancy services on request, complete India's Bokeh of Assistance. Importantly, India's Development Cooperation Program is firmly rooted in the belief that the best way forward for developing nations is to learn from one another's experience and to grow together. This indeed is the best way to embark on the developmental journey. When we started in 1964, the philosophy was to be responsive to the needs of other countries, to be open to sharing experiences and to trying to work with a sense of solidarity with other developing countries. Perhaps the sense of solidarity is natural because of a shared struggle against colonialism. In fact, even as a newly independent nation realizing the importance of South-South cooperation, India, along with others, had sought to create a new world order, which would counter the stark dichotomies inherent in the North-South model of development. A world order in which all nations of the world would develop involuntary partnerships based on mutual trust and dignity. A well-established truism which holds good till today. It was to provide a framework for doing so optimally that on 15th of September 1964, the then Indian Cabinet formally announced the Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation Program. And after 50 years today, its global footprint and impact on building national capacities is keenly apparent. In fact, I have to say this. I'm very much appreciative of what the Indian Government has done, has done and is doing regarding imparting knowledge and experience to friendly countries because it's not because India is the richest country or it's not because they have nothing else to do with their money, but it has been a very good gesture. And I happen to think that the experience of India is very relevant to the Ethiopian way of development because India started from humble backgrounds and has gone quite far now. India has implemented a number of projects in infrastructure, hydroelectricity, power transmission, agriculture, industry, education and health, notably in the neighborhood and other regions of the world including Africa, Latin America, South Asia and the Gulf region. Actually, we have many common issues, particularly in the developing world. It goes beyond just India's understanding. It's a mutual interchange of ideas, of experiences, so it enriches both the nations. Equally importantly, India's Development Cooperation Program is an expression of India's commitment to share her expertise, learning and resources to help build national capacities of other countries traversing the same developmental pathways. Nobody runs in one day. Nobody runs in one week. No way. Yes, no doubt. No one learns in a day. And India too is still learning each day how to cope with the unique challenges she faces as a nation, but there too lie many are learning. They have the courage to succeed and to achieve their dreams and to improve their situations and to be educated. It's an example to be followed by the other villages in our countries. I learned about the planning of rural areas, especially from the village people. People living in Afghanistan are so poor, so I could understand from here and to plan for them for good development projects for them. Interestingly, each and every participant in the IITEC courses comes from a different nation, a diverse background and also professions. However, they all seem to be familiar with one aspect of India for sure. I really do enjoy now Bollywood movies. Because I've been a fan of Indian movies. We used to know other men since we met a budget. Imagine the delight of the IITEC trainees at Seedak Mohali when they were invited to act in a Punjabi film. But on a more serious note, what is common to all the participants is their desire for knowledge and learning to upgrade existing skills and learn new ones. Actually no, but I had the passion of knowing. Because I want to enhance my English. One aspect is the use of the biogas that we've learnt. It's simple technology. We can be used in our various villages to improve their lifestyle. Perhaps the opportunity to learn hands-on that these courses provide are what increased their value for the participants. We are lucky we came here to this election here in India. So we visit some centres, see the photo, I see the machine, how it works, what they are doing. It's really interesting. Actually there were many things that I liked about IITEC programs. But maybe the best thing I liked was that being an interactive learning experience and being in very international and diverse environments. That's really very unique about IITEC programs. Whatever they learn in India is however not limited only to further their individual careers but is a means to contribute to their societies in a purposeful manner. In this course I think I will catch more things, more experience from here to carry out it in my country and to do it in my poor people in the rural area. And what we have learnt here is really appropriate what I'm doing here. So the chance that I've got to improve my knowledge in many aspects. I think it will benefit us and we work for the people of the subcontinent. Not only for the country, Bangladesh, it will benefit us to work for the people of the area also. For most newly emerging nations to achieve economic growth and independent decision making seems to be a tall order under any circumstances. And India from experience learnt that national sovereignty and integrity are an imperative for achieving both. Therefore, unlike most nations, India willingly trained personnel from friendly nations in matters of defence. I'm very grateful to the government of India for this exchange program because without it definitely we wouldn't be advanced or we wouldn't copy what we are supposed to copy like what I'm doing here now. Which in turn would not only enable them to strengthen their national boundaries but also achieve developmental goals. I'm Squadron leader Marzia from Bangladesh Air Force. The instructors in AFTC, they are really friendly and it will help me in my professional ground after completing this course. To build capacities which could help safeguard national sovereignty in times of peace and war have been an important component of India's development initiative all along. I think ITEC is a very good platform not only to learn from each other but also to establish people-to-people contact. India on her side without hesitation opens the doors to some of her best and finest institutions for all of those seeking to upgrade their knowledge and skills. Really it's a very favourable place for studying very environmentally friendly places for study specifically this institute Roki where the prestigious one. Perhaps the circumstances under which India's development partnerships with other nations were born lend them its uniqueness. The diversity of initiatives which are offered by India for assistance in terms of structure and content are unparalleled quite simply because they reflect a range of development needs of many countries which articulate their needs for assistance from India. I think India is competent to hold such ITEC programs and from my experience I found out that India Government is very selective when choosing the institute that will participate or hosting people for ITEC programs and it's really an old sharing it's really an effective mechanism for non-sharing between India and other developing countries. It is not just what they learn but also how they learn is what is important for the participants course after course year after year. I heard that the English and foreign language university is one of the recognized universities in this region and as well as in the world for developing English professions in methodological way. That's good. A university is known for its expertise in the area of language teaching and therefore they are well equipped to train nationals from any country and what they do is they modulate the courses every year for every program based on the learner's needs so it's a need based kind of a course. The teachers are very good at teaching and if I serve as an officer in my category and I will not have this chance this is the chance that I got to learn English. Apart from the regular courses participating countries also benefit immensely from the specialized courses offered which are tailor made to suit their requirements. All these help their officials upgrade skills helping them reach globally accepted standards in their own fields. The training that they have given me have opened my eyes to the possibilities of cyber access, hacking they teach you a lot of information that you would not get in the Caribbean or I have not gotten a chance to really come to know these things that I've taught here. Actually I have learned a lot, I have learned a lot. As a network administrator I didn't know about cryptography I didn't know about even firewalls I'm seeing firewalls in my windows or something but I used to turn it off. India's plurality and multiculturalism just add myriad dimensions to her status as the world's largest democracy. As every Indian eligible to vote, votes freely India is only too happy to give others free lessons in democracy. The election commission of the India and the ITEC has done a very big task to other countries to educate people like us. Actually I was so amazed by this experience I didn't know that you were that developed on many levels on the IT level maybe the voting machine is the first time we still use ballots so I was amazed by this by the high level of democracy of transparency you have your people are civilized voters no problems, no disputes I was so amazed by this experience. All these few skills, knowledge and experience that we have it's at the disposal of the world so one of the organized connectivity to share what we have and to help build others capacity if they want is the ITEC course. It was really an appreciable thing that most of the participants were African countries so the Indian commitment to capacity the African parliament to make them to be in a similar row or in a similar line to be too strong than the parliamentary function is really an appreciable commitment it helped the parliamentarian to understand better to have better knowledge and the skill to implement in irrespective countries as the whole world faces environmental challenges it becomes even more important for developing countries to find optimal ways to ensure that the aspirations of their people are met while at the same time the available resources are used in a prudent manner and therefore India freely shares knowledge gathered in energy access and equity and use of water resources with other developing nations to help them meet the development versus environment challenge effectively This Rurki University previously it's a very well known university and it has been established by British only for the irrigation system so it's a very nice thing to get up what they are having here from the Indian mentalities and applied in my country Sudan which ultimately is the very essence of South-South cooperation to share experiences for equitable development India's expertise in IT related fields is far too well known across the world and therefore obviously in great demand not only has India helped set up many centres of excellence including the Kofi Annan Centre for Excellence in ICT in Ghana the India Tanzania Centre for Excellence in ICT at Dar es Salaam and the India-Vietnam Advanced Resource Centre in ICT at Hanoi India also offers scholarships to many participants for undergoing similar courses in India as well As the participants learn to create their own virtual realities it's not just the techniques but also the intricacies of the craft which are acquired alongside I am in the web design technology and as I have learned many things about the web design technology I got that experience and the confidence that I will be able to make world-class websites with the help of this course I work with these subjects before I work in the university and the Agahan school and there I use it but now here I learn new for example before I used HTML4 now here I learn HTML5 It is the flexibility of India's Development Cooperation Program which constantly allows for innovation and endeavors to meet the requirements of partner countries to satisfy their expectations and so even as ICT turned 50 this year it continues to attract an increasing number of participants to India such as these first-timers from Rwanda who came to learn some very specialized skills very aptly they are learning about making fragrances in a part of India which has been producing them since the time of the Mahabharat Actually this training is based on upgrading entrepreneurship in the youth of Rwanda and through this training we've learnt a lot right from cultivation, processing, managerial status and up to the level of entrepreneurship so I look forward to use the knowledge I got here to enhance entrepreneurship in Rwanda We are training them for the management skills, soft skills entrepreneurial aspect so that the moment they go back these 19 Rwandans should emerge as the Indian Fragment Ambassador in Rwanda A new world order would surely require a new breed of leaders and managers and for developing nations it becomes imperative no doubt to have trained decision makers The most complex principles of management amazingly can be learnt quite simply almost like child's play or so it would seem We have a lot of participation, proactive learning methodologies it is not a one-way learning, it is a give and take they are talking about leadership skills they are talking about inner governance they are talking about ethics and values in the leadership styles they are talking about various aspects of financial management also There is a lot of focus on leadership and management of the team of the projects as well that's why I believe that this will really help me to improve the way I work Be it enhancing spoken English skills or learning about fragrances as new skills acquired build their confidence no gold seems out of reach In the future yes I am aspiring to be if not even the Director General in charge of the CID headquarters then one of the top most so I am very interested to become a very good manager in the near future Another chance to improve my knowledge so that I can create my own company about the essential oils or the fragrance or the fragrance I was like recently appointed to General Manager and actually when I took the course I was a Senior Economist so it has helped me a lot in my career For participants who come to India or experts who go out of India to other nations it is no surprise that the cultural dialogue and the social interaction fostered creates lifelong bonds The teachers are good, they know how to pass their knowledge they are high skilled I have formed a Facebook group and I am the admin of that group and we still keep in touch, we talk we exchange a lot of family events and occasions and like a lot of Indian celebrations we keep in touch through that and one of the trainer actually is one of my friends on Facebook and I still keep in touch with her I will call my trainers my mother my father my brother, my sister they are definitely loving people I don't have anything bad to say about these people that have changed me for the past five weeks Perhaps the most unique aspect of India's Development Cooperation Program is that the learning is at various levels be it mastering the intricacies of yoga ascents I don't remember many good memories about India but maybe yoga classes were the most thing I still remember now because that was the very first time to have an intensive course for every day, every morning about yoga classes with a professional yoga trainer so it's something I still remember Or then savouring the many flavours of chat unfamiliar yet tantalising on the taste buds Foods are a bit spicy but I like them I like also in India I like Indian foods but especially vegetarian foods I feel that I am in my home and I have taken all the foods and this is very good for me Nor is it only about getting to eat Indian food for the first time but also an opportunity for cooking your own national food for your batch mates and introducing them to the flavours of your unique cuisine Some of the participants from Iraq they cut salad they said that they are very fond of the salad Oman participants they prepare the barbeque and then it was a gathering of around 15 or 20 odd ITEC participants they and that was my batch in 2002 which made me emotionally attached to each and every participant Not to forget the time a football match was played with a unique team comprising of players each one of whom was from a different country No we put things together and we definitely had a good game Right now I am sweating here but very happy So obviously it's not restricted to learning work skills or about getting to know India better but much beyond India in fact becomes a gateway for many of the participants to meet people from so many countries of the world at the same time, at the same place for the first time in their lives to live and learn with people from so many nations is not only a rare opportunity but also an education in itself Well of course with all those friends from 90 countries it's not like of course being in India is one aspect but to get the opportunity to be together with them as if like we've been to all those 90 countries different countries, their cultures it can be clearly seen the way they put on their dress the way they talk, how we share things together so I think it is amazing In this program we have given a lot of opportunities to exchange our ideas with other students those who came from different countries The maturity level has gone I've come together to see different views of people and I mean you would not say that everybody has the personality you have people with different personalities because we have different minds we come from different backgrounds but through it all we have gained the maturity the understanding that we can be as a team we can be as a group that will come together to make this a good experience The most interesting aspect of interacting with participants from different parts of the world is that you understand that while there are a lot of differences in terms of culture, in language, food at the end of the day we are all human beings and we like the same things In these times when we frequently find communities and countries in conflict India's development cooperation initiatives are helping create an environment conducive for international cooperation and understanding And I think it's a very good starting point for peace creation in the world because the more you learn about your brother you know his differences then you can live with peace And also it's not only the Indian experience but the experience among different countries as we were in 23 countries it was an important commitment to make those parliamentary groups to come together and to share experience on how each of the countries are working We are in touch with my classmates from different countries and different cultures from Argentina, Brazil, Sri Lanka, India and also Latin American countries One of the most striking features of this that there are actually bridges of actual personal experience that are created and I think that is as valuable an asset as we have And the learning never stops Even as they leave their classrooms the entire country seems to become a classroom for them The colours, sights, sounds smells and foods of India her culture and diversity her history and monuments they all seem to teach them something So 50 in the classroom, 50 outside So I'm going home with 100%, about 98% We always hear about the Taj Mahal for example but we didn't know there were many other different places which are beautiful as Taj Mahal also We went to Gwalior, it was amazing the Red Fort, everything we saw was amazing I didn't expect India to be like that It's a very beautiful country With each developmental milestone achieved India obviously has more to share I think India is in the position for this knowledge transfer for this technology transfer Perhaps a perfect example is when just after the success of her green revolution India helped set up a rice research institute in southern Vietnam assisting Vietnam to become a major exporter of rice in the world today We share common problems where economies are at similar levels or people also experience similar problems whereas the western world is a different world where they have nothing much to compare whereas India has gone through this cycle of development we are ahead So the developing world would like to emulate India rather than the western world It is indeed amazing what dimensions this cooperation has acquired over the years What began as 70 scholarships for students from neighboring countries today has a global footprint and reach Our main concern is technical exchanges and mutual support and south-south cooperation is something on which we are strongly there It's not as though India is a perfect country but then we can learn from them they can learn from us The substantial growth in India's external development assistance program in the past few years has resulted in an ever larger number of projects and countries getting covered under its ambit It has also resulted in a felt need to more effectively handle India's projects right from the policy formulation stage through the implementation, handing over and monitoring in close cooperation with the partner countries of the projects In January 2012 to streamline the delivery and effectiveness of India's external development assistance the Development Partnership Administration was established in the Ministry of External Affairs to effectively handle India's development assistance program and to build in-house technical, financial and legal expertise required for effective project implementation A small hub in the Ministry of External Affairs the Development Partnership Administration ensures that all these diverse strands of developmental assistance extended by India are expeditiously implemented We don't believe that we are like a donor which we are supposed to give out something to other countries But in a South-South cooperation the idea is mutual benefit and mutual learning too And as India gives she too receives an abundance She too is enriched with the unconditional love she is given Because I'm falling in love with India I really want to come back and do my master's here Every person in the world should visit India once in his life I wish, I wish if I had the opportunity I would come, I would come because learning there's no end I intend to be back to India another once time again once again At least at most 100 times if the chance permits I bring thousands of my colleagues to come and learn so that we can develop our country back up This is the most valuable thing which we acquire and that is the friendship of foreign participants Perhaps which is why lessons learnt with friends are so special They envelop you not only in knowledge but in love and bonomy They have the ability to empower illiterate poor grandmothers with solar electrification technology to light up their homes and lives They help build roads to prosperity They enable young professionals with new skills to help them translate their aspirations for a better life into reality But most importantly they help build bridges which transcend distances of language, colour, creed and nationality Helping one to understand, accept and celebrate the other as a friend forevermore Thank you


Hello, I'm Emilio Othano. Hello, the workplace solutions. Can you go to the next slide please, Adrian? Okay, apologies for the amount of information I put in here, but this is the summary of our sprint. We committed 47.66% of the points we, sorry, completed 47% of the points we had committed for this sprint, but we still have one day left. And there are many tasks that will be completed today, especially everything related with upgrade to 4.1. So this velocity will change at the end of the day. And for the composition of this sprint, we again focused on backfixing. So more than a third of our issues for backfixes and not including all the tasks involving the upgrade to model workplace 4.1, to model 4.1, sorry. There are a number of pieces that are still waiting for peer review or especially in peer review or integration review that will be completed today. So as I said, this velocity will increase. Can you go to the next slide please, Adrian? So these are the goals we have for this sprint. The main goal was the advanced tenant appearance settings, which has been completed and I'll explain it shortly. And the other big topic we have for this sprint was the model workplace 4.1 release, including these new dual version approach that we're starting with 4.1. This is ongoing and I'll also update you shortly. And from the discovery point of view, we completed the short midterm feature prioritization within the PEG. So now we have everything that we need to come up with an update roadmap for the next six to eight months that we're working on right now will be published shortly. And we'll continue with the learning catalogue discovery and now we're in the user story analysis and feature and casual team prioritization with the PEG. But something that we're planning to complete during the next sprint. So for the next increment, we have a third definition of what is an MVP of the learning catalogue and we can start the prototyping. So can you go to the next slide please? So the first big thing we have, or the main big thing we have completed in this sprint is the advanced tenant appearance settings. Basically in 4.0, we simplified the tenant appearance settings just basically to reduce the reserve of non-accessible core combinations to be set by tenant admins. So we tried to simplify this primary configuration to avoid the situation while we hid some of these features. So only partners or only developers could, not really developers, but they could be changed using CSS. But partners and other stakeholders requested us to bring them back because they wanted to be able to do this. So we found a way of doing that without compromising the site accessibility. We brought them back and this is how we did. So next slide please. Again, so basically what we did is adding, so we added back two settings to the tenant branding configuration, basically the navigation bar background color and the primary root and color and also move the CSS setting to an advanced section. So basically what we did is creating a new section in the branding page which is advanced and we moved all these new features to that section. Can you go to the next slide please? And we also introduced a new capability to define who is able to edit this advanced branding. So before this capability is only the site admins have it. That site admins can run this capability to tenant admins. So in summary, these features will be available to this advanced branding configuration will be available to site admins only, but they can give this permission to tenant admins if they think it is okay. So we just add it back in a safer way. Next slide please. And of course, we take off all the upgrade strips from previous versions. So another thing we did in this spring was adding the tenant allocation rules instead. Space is a bit technical service, but I'll try to simplify it. So in workplace we have dynamic rules to allocate users to tenants. And these dynamic rules have both conditions to check if a user, whether a user is in a tenant or not, and actions to allocate users to a tenant if they need to create the dynamic rule. These conditions and actions were not available in the service space, which is like a special tenant we have in workplace to create things that are served among all tenants for some permission restrictions, basically because we couldn't show details of certain rules to users who have no permission to see all the tenants and things like that. So in order to add these tenant allocation rules to the service space, we had to implement, we have to do some changes in the dynamic rules API so conditions and actions can mask or hide some sensible information for users who cannot see that information. So by doing that, we have been able to add these tenant allocation rules, which are very useful because they allow to create, allow admin to create automations in the service space and things like if the user, if the email domain of this user is at Moodle.com, then allocate this user to the Moodle tenant. And we can do that in the service space instead of creating this rule in all tenants. So this is something we have added to this screen. There are some small bits that are still in progress, but we're planning to add that into 4.1. Next slide please, Adrienne. And the other big topic of this release of this screen is the workplace 4.1 release. So the upgrade to 4.1 is being completed in this screen. So between today and probably there's something outstanding tomorrow. We'll finish with all the upgrade tasks and we'll be in the position to start with the QA test. So in the next screen, we're going to do the QA testing for 4.1. That this week, we're going to release 4.1 beta to partners. So partners will have 4.1 features available based on Moodle LMS 4.0 instead of Moodle 4.1. And at the end of this screen, we will release both the stable and rolling final versions of workplace 4.1, just after the QA cycle. Next slide please, Adrienne. We have added a number of other improvements. This is just a highlight. So we added a department to a department filled to the user profile condition in dynamic rules. We didn't have it before because in dynamic rules, we have organization extracted department and could be confused with the profile, the user profile department. But we have added it by request. We completed the migration of core report builder, custom report. That's something that was completed the last screen, but the review was massive. Part of the review of this issue and integration has been done in this screen. And we have introduced some settings to disable the program cover page if partners don't want to use it. Next slide please. And we also fixed a number of bugs. As I mentioned at the beginning of the update, it was a third of the points we have committed for this screen. So this is just some selected bugs that we can fix that have been reported by partners because we have been focusing on bug fixing, but especially on bugs that have been reported by partners or Moodle LMS. Next slide please. And last but not least, we are working on some improvements of our development workflow. Paul Holder has been working on this from the workplace team. So basically we want to introduce some, so formalize more the integration and integration review process in the workplace. So we start to introduce some changes in our workflows so we can clarify the state of the development. And basically adding these transitions, these new statuses and transitions for waiting for integration review and integration review. So formalizing it in a way. And also we're formalizing the review process to ensure the quality of the reviews is even. And it meets the standard that we have defined with the checklist. And we're also requiring more formal testing instructions as part of the acceptance criteria. So in some way we're moving towards the direction of what Moodle LMS team is doing. But the process is a bit like, this is something we focus on quick wings in this screen. And in the next increment we will introduce some deeper changes in these workflows. And next slide, I think this was the last one. Oh no, of course discovery. And finally, from the discovery point of view, we are refining the user stories for the learning catalog. We have a list of almost 500 tasks. We're trying to summarize it in a list of user stories around 50 or 60. And then we will use that to prioritize these user stories with our partners so we can come up with a roadmap for the learning catalog feature. This is something that is ongoing. This is intentionally small, just to show the amount of user stories we have. This is just like a small portion of them. And from the discovery point of view also, we're working on the workplace roadmap for the next 6 to 80 months. We have the priorities, the partners, both in the last priority session round. And now we need to create a roadmap, taking all the things into account and adding everything into the mix. Like dependencies or things that we need to in the workplace roadmap because are related with features that we want to release after. So with these combinational features, we will play the roadmap in the next weeks and we'll say shortly with partners. And I'm public, not only with partners. And I think that's all, next slide just in case.


It was present where I appeared to have a further discussion on the campaign against drug abuse. A number of these things we've discussed before, there is a special statement in front of us and particularly I think it is to put you in a position where you can discuss this matter today first with the Republic of Leadership which is exceedingly concerned because of what they see as an anti-drug abuse policy which are listed in the discussion paper there in terms of drug free workplaces, schools, expanded treatment programs, expanded international cooperation, strengthened law enforcement, and increased public awareness and prevention. I think the purpose today was to discuss some of the things that will follow on from the basic program we are announcing today and to get some views of different cabinet members as to what we should be doing. Let me ask Carlton with that glass level kind of thing Yes, I think that was the thing To do that, what the name is going to be You know, if you bad enough in an executive system to do that kind of thing name calling the plan on I think Well, that isn't what you came here about, is it? In fact, a lot of you didn't get here I'm sure we'll be holding a meeting on the 14th Street Bridge So, we better come here and discuss The most obnoxious position paid by anti-ideologists have been sent We didn't get any time Well, Mr. President, if you could move on Yes You're going to imagine some kind of a rough time thinking homosexuals are not normal Well, listen, thank you for coming down here to talk about an issue of extreme indulgence, I think During my first press conference in this job, I said the fighting drug abuse would be a major goal of this administration During the last five years we've worked together to take unprecedented actions to combat drug abuse and we've expanded drug law enforcement to strengthen international cooperation and the the Nancy's leadership created a nationwide drug abuse awareness effort to strengthen public attitudes against the illegal drugs We set out to reduce drug abuse in the military forces I'm pleased to say that our military involved in mandatory testing has got drug use by 67% since 1981 And more than 20 federal agencies are now actually involved in fighting drug trafficking as a result of legislation as part of all of you the military is assisting the drug enforcement activities also And the organized crime Drug Enforcement Task Force has since 1982 won indictments against more than 9,000 drug traffickers Five years ago there were less than a thousand parent groups working against drug abuse and this was one of the projects of the main project that took on when she started with, I say, only 5,000 such groups now there are 10,000 over 10,000 local groups and the Just Say No clubs working to fight against this crime I don't know if you're aware or not but that Just Say No came out of a little talk she was giving to some high school kids in Oakland, California and one of them asked her a question What could they do when she said Just Say No and now the date is 10,000 Just Say No clubs but I've been meeting with the cabinet we've discussed the double federal elected wills to clear the general on the bridge I was there, go by your side we're talking about drugs and I believe the time is right and we I think of all of us who have discussed this the cabinet and the state have established a drug-free nation and to really create a crusade in this nation-wide involving everything business, education, everything else and the immediate goal and I'll say it here but we're talking about at least a 50% reduction for the next three years but I think publicly we want to go further and just simply say the goal is going to be the eradication of the use of drugs and this is means to mobilize every second of our society against illegal drugs and we'll get the message to the drug user that illegal drugs will no longer be tolerated in our society I know that you all have been working on this probably too so I'm interested in your thoughts and your approach to this because this is one where I think we're working together well we have a task force on the house side Bob you and I see you I hope we get a sister now we better have our little mocky crew this is favorite if that is the case, wake up for this I think Katelyn got tired of waiting oh she's ready for the camera did you see that well why don't we come in here if you're in the middle I think it'll be pretty how about you thank you thank you oh hey you're in luck thank you very much bookmark for you and I know what's coming next this is a jar in here jelly beans with the seal disengraved on it and that's for you she'll take a good pass there what do you say honey and then this is just a sample before they get home there's two I'm on the way for them this is a sample of what's in the jar thank you very much I appreciate this very much thank you thank you again makes it all worthwhile we'll save this one goodbye Mr. President hello nice to see you all the important things good to see you hello there that's a good idea one on one don't forget don't forget see you I hope you won't forget us sir I hope you'll come and go to the festival I remember hearing you talk about free enterprise in communist countries when we were in Geneva for the summit Hungary has more of it than any other I was just reading the evidence some later before the summit they that's right a lot of interesting things they loved having them George Schultz came back to the story I was with him but now I'm not sure which Joe I have two friends the young man that the one was a Russian the other one was a Hungarian and they were walking I haven't said to the other one always said to my friends wonderfully said let us like two true communist comrades get by this between us and out of your hands say goodbye to the 50th thank you very much Mr. President it's a pleasure to work under you hello hello hello hello hello how are you? I'm fine how are you? what you meant was what you meant by this? I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine I'm fine further we have successfully concluded our negotiations on multi-fiber agreement overriding my vehicle I think that this protectionist legislation would have the effect of shattering these important agreements and our hopes for broad participation in the new GAT round where we would like to significantly broaden access to foreign markets for U.S. goods and services now let me ask the specifics of the agreement that he and his people negotiated and then I'll ask Jim Baker to give us his overview of the trade legislation situation in the context of his vote on the textbook bill and the owner of some stocks from Trent Hughes we'll have your chance also I'd like to ask if you would I'd like to ask if you would I'd like to ask if you would be on the sacrifice of Jim Baker for that oh Mr. President how are you how are you I miss you I I knew what you were going to do I was just going to say how are you why don't you take that chair over there gentlemen find yourself places and I know I should I thank you for saying this because we feel that this is extremely urgent and even dangerous we've run into a point down there with the military budget where we have to knock on because you're not going to like and I'm not going to go through all of them for example a manpower and personnel we would have to reduce the requested pay raise reduce military personnel to below $84,000


And hi. Hey, this is JF at Bot Factory. We're in New York City. We're a startup. And our vision is for a future where every single electronic device you make is going to be made with one of our products. What we have here is a desktop PCB printer. Our machine is capable of inkjet printing, nanoparticle silver, and insulating materials to build multi-layered circuitry on flexible or rigid materials. So right now it's printing a PCB in there? Yes. Well, right now it's in demo mode. But yes, if you were printing a board, you'd be printing something right in there. The whole goal of our product is to make it easy for someone to make a board. So we also have separate heads for dispensing and pick and placing components. Each head can be hot, can be removed in the process for dispensing, for example. Let's see if I move here. There's a dispensing tip here, and we can dispense onto all the pads, solder paste or conductive glue. And then of course we have a pick and place head here, which you can swap out. There are magnets and a connector here to hold the whole system in place. And we have a setup for holding components and chips and a camera for recognizing the center of each component, so we can place them correctly. So in other words, we've kind of miniaturized the PCB factory. We've taken all the elements you see on the factory floor and somewhere in Southeast Asia and condensed it into a device that can sit on a simple table like this. You can have it sit right next to your electrical engineer so you can design the board and then develop it and test it before ever having to think about making an order from somewhere else online or having to assemble it yourself by hand. What's happening with larger boards? Is this a different machine? Yeah, so this is an industry project we're doing with Airbus. So Airbus has an ongoing project called the Factory of the Future. You can find out about it online. Their whole goal is to fabricate and automatically all the processes for making aircraft. One thing they want to do is they want to use printed electronics in their aircraft. They liked sort of our vision and felt like there was a good idea to partner up. So we're developing a larger format system for them that's going to be able to print on flexible substrates and rigid substrates so you can kind of do more production kind of level fabrication. So the airplane of the future is going to be printed out of one of the machines? Is that going to happen? How much of the world is going to be printed? I think we can print everything. Printing anything with electronics. Printing electronics just allows you so much more freedom and flexibility, literally flexibility of electronics. You can print inside, let's say, the inner parts of a rocket so you can get higher density of circuitry for small payloads. You can use it in things like disposable cups. There's a possibility of printing little LEDs so they can tell you how hot your coffee is or printing flexible chips in here or displays. And there are booths and companies at the show that are doing all these things. We're kind of trying to be the touchstone for bringing it all together. Not only can you fabricate a board like a rigid board like one of these, but you can also print flexible boards using some of the materials and techniques you can see at the show today. So let me show you this. This is a four-layer board. It took me four hours to make that. Now, had I assembled it, it would probably take around five hours. The assembly process is relatively quick compared to the printing process. So there's two layers for signaling and two layers, one for ground, one for power. These are two-layer boards, and they have sort of edge connectors for connecting to USB, and it's actually a sound meter. Over here we have, I'm not sure how well it's going to work out, but these are LEDs that are being turned on and off by Arduino over here. And I made that in two hours. That was fast. You made which part? I made the whole thing in about two hours. So that's the kind of rapid fabrication that you can do. With the LEDs on? Oh, the LEDs are pick and placed. By hand or by the machine? By the machine. So you can do that? Yep. Which part can it pick? Which part can it place? How much can it do? So the only thing I did by hand was the plated through holes, and we need those for components. So we have a tool that you can plate the inner parts of a hole if you choose to for like a connector or a solderable component, like a large capacitor. The interconnects between the different printed layers are actually printed with the machine, so you don't need to plate anything for the vias. So you've been working on this stuff for a few years already, right? How's been the adoption in the market? Adoption has been strong. Everyone sort of recognizes that fabricating a board quickly is difficult. Getting sort of exactly what you want from an existing process, traditional process takes too long, and it's not going to get faster. It doesn't matter how many factories you build, you still need labor costs, you still need to get them to do it the right way. So getting it in-house is better. It's also a great way for a company to avoid having any IP issues. They can protect themselves better by having all the fabrication process in-house. And so a lot of companies are recognizing that and going with that. So it's great for prototyping. But it's also good for people who want to do different things. Like, you know, often we have companies who are just trying to get their feet wet with printed electronics. So they want to do flexible electronics, they want to do things, and they don't really want to spend a lot of time making mistakes and spending a lot of money. They just get one of these machines and they're done. So how much of printed PCBs is going to be for prototyping versus mass production of the future of the world, you know? So I think 100% of all boards in the future are going to be printed. And there's several reasons why. Customization of electronics because of complexity is going to become more and more important. And generally speaking, you want to have the same prototyping techniques as you do want to have at the same mass production so you can kind of compare apples to apples, right? And it's easier for you to understand how you can take a design that makes it on this machine and scale it to large scale. Printed electronics is faster, but it is different from regular PCBs that are made today. So, you know, electrical engineers have to think about how to maximize and take advantage of all the potential uses of printed electronics so they can really maximize the capabilities of it and provide better products. But there's just so many uses for print electronics both on an economic scale as well as a design envelope scale where it expands that possibility that it's no brainer. It's a no brainer that print electronics is going to be everywhere in the next decade. How do you eventually make one machine or bigger machine that does both the PCB and all the case and everything in one go? I think that's definitely a possibility. I'm seeing a lot more people doing that. There are challenges because you need to make the materials play with each other. And you need to think about how you do it at scale. In my view, there's an acceleration because everyone recognizes that integrating all the elements into one machine or one process or one machine that uses several processes would be advantageous. Principally, it's a lot of R&D companies who are trying to cut costs and trying to make their process of iteration faster. But it's also manufacturers who are like, we're trying to do things that you wouldn't necessarily do by traditional means. But as I said, it's a long road for various reasons. But I believe it's going to be very, very common soon. It's called like Kinkos or something like that, right? Those places where people go to get stuff printed a little bit more professionally. There might be a bunch of those in every city where they have big machines. People can get it printed and stuff. But I mean, flex 3D hybrid electronics where you're combining printed electronics, the object creation and the final bit, the chips. It's very hard to print chips. There are some people that are printing chips, but the size of the transistors on each integrated IC is massive compared to what you get out of an AMD Intel or like factory or foundry, right? So they still need to get the chips. They're not going to be printed for probably a lot longer unless there's some sort of magical new technology that comes along. So for the Kinkos guys, they still need to order those chips. But at the same time, the fact that you can get systems on the chips that have almost everything in one chip, you just have to combine the different sensors. You pick in place. There you go. You just add on the, it's hybrid. But you still need to get those chips from somewhere, right? Like you can't just, like only Kinkos has this ink and paper. So they don't have the material on site. You know, if you have a Kinkos style, you need the material and you need the ink, conductive ink, you still need the chips. You still need those components that give that, that really make the electron stance like this guy. So I mean, like I bought those LEDs. Those are neopixels, the resistors and everything. We could print the resistor for sure. I think that's possible. The capacitor could have been printed. But the only other elements like this is an integrated neopixels. So neopixels have integrated drivers in them. So I just had to send serial data power on the ground and the whole thing will blink at any color I want. However, to make the semiconductor, printing semiconductors at the future size that I want, that's, that's not easy. You can use it for basic displays. There's a company called Wine Visible that does stuff like that for printing displays. But high power LEDs, like very specific color ranges, like, oof, you need a foundry for that. And of course this is running off an Arduino, which, you know, has a lot of other elements. But I think that, for example, if you're working with system on chips where the chips kind of have almost everything and you have the ability to print the resistor and the capacitor, you may be able to do quite a lot of complex technology where almost everything except for the chip is printed. But that's still far off. We still have to think very long about how we can do that. And how much, in the next two, three years, how much of the world and IoT and everything could be very, very suitable for this kind of customization? Because it's about customizing for every use case, right? And there could be billions of different kind of devices. Is there a way to, what are your thoughts about this? So the great thing about our technology is that you can do low volume, high mix. And embedded in IoT technologies often require a lot of that because sometimes they're just solving one specific problem. And if you can rapidly iterate it and test it in the field, you don't need to make large quantities. 3D printing is, like, plastic printing is great for that. There's probably, you know, small use cases where people are only printing a hundred of something. I find that this kind of technology will help out, at least expand the IoT and embedded electronics world because then they can actually tackle, let's say, smaller market problems which may actually, you know, generate just enough sort of income and justification to fabricate a here instead of sending it out, that kind of stuff. I see, as I said, I see this a lot with 3D printing. For example, we use a lot of 3D printing for all the bits on the components on the machine because we're still at the start-up stage. Had we not had that technology, we would have had to order injection mold pieces. That would have taken too long. So to be honest, I find that's very important that we take the approach of, you know, allowing customers to kind of do more and more with less and less by having a product like this here. So what's this machine? And can people buy it now? This is SB2 Pro. This is our new product. We've encased our SB2. So it has an enclosure, different printing heads so we can do sort of a wider variety of print heads. Is it safe to open it now or not? No, right now it's printing so I can't open it. It will stop. So we're just going to leave it as it is. But yeah, this is our new product release. And so how can people buy it? Oh, they can give us a call and we'll give them a quote. We're shipping this version in March, but we're still selling our original SB2s. It just doesn't have an enclosure, but it has some of the basic upgrades that I mentioned. So we're looking at a couple of new things like we're researching how to integrate a Piazzo print head. We're looking at new materials for dispensing onto flexible and rigid substrates to have a higher bond. But Piazzo is going to speed things up quite a bit, we think, also allow you to print thinner traces and things like that as well, hopefully. What kind of customer do you have? Is it like a university? We have a lot of universities, a lot of research labs that are focusing on print electronics. We're doing prototyping as a good dual use case there. We do have a significant number of companies ranging from aerospace to automotive to industrial applications where lightness, new materials matter, printing conformally to structures matters a lot. Or they just want to rapid fabricate stuff. It's always a mix of those two types of companies. And then there's sort of our, I'd say our fastest growing market, which is the small companies that want to do pure prototyping, that's it.
