 Project objective

Most people spend about 90% of their days indoors, especially in cities. Vast majority of commercial and residential buildings’ windows do not transmit enough natural light to homes and offices. Reduced exposure to natural light results in Health (increased blood pressure, stress and anxiety, weaker immune system, worse sleeping cycle), and Workplace (decreased focus, reduced productivity, worse task progression, reduced energy level) issues. Increasing window surface comes with a cost. On the other side, functionality of spaces is one-sided – you can't have a shared workspace and private office in the same room, and you can't have bathroom without walls separating it from living room. Or can you? Intelligent Glass is a patentable hi-tech glass panel that turns around the way people use natural sunlight in their homes/ workspaces. It enables transparency adjusting, creating multi-functional spaces, has intelligent automation options, and cuts down energy costs. Also, its innovative in-house-built technology brings heat and UV protection, dimmability, usage as touch- or presentation screen, and allows accessible end-user price for luxurious design. The company envisages commercial and residence buildings as key targets, while also offering Intelligent Glass to internal renovations of apartments and offices. With inbound marketing serving increasing demand, outbound direct sales and industry events channels, Intelligent Glass can reach 600 clients and realize 4,4 mio EUR revenue in 5 years. Willingness to buy was already validated in projects with house builders, and individual installations on Slovenian and Croatian market. In feasibility study we want to (i) analyze further product development requirements and prepare its development plan, (ii) assess market demand, commercialization strategy and IPR protection options, and (iii) validate economic feasibility of the business model.
