Participant teams

  1. Pharmaly (Camnodia)
  2. Pharmily is the first specialized service company to provide the solutions to all existing local pharmacies in order to solve all their challenges such as stock management and other pharmacies system development. Pharmily was born with the passion to innovate and conserve all local pharmacies with the new pharmacies system development, allowing all general public to experience a better health care service.

    Unlike other businesses who establish pharmacy stores, Pharmily is not competing with those existing pharmacies as we aim to improve the quality of all pharmacies to provide a better healthcare service to the public. Healthcare Service is considered as a vital need for every human beings, and Pharmacies play an important role as a primary care service provider. In Cambodia, more and more people started to seek for medical care in neighboring countries as they have lost the trust in local healthcare services due to some bad experiences and the exaggeration of some unethical medias. As a primary care service provider, pharmacies are also facing huge problems in building trust for local people; most existing pharmacies are family-run and traditional businesses with poor medicine storage, improper stock management, and worse than that some pharmacies do not even have standby pharmacist. Proper consultation can rarely be provided, and poor management results in extreme uncontrollable crowd in traditional pharmacies without private spaces for patients with sensitive health issue. If there is no measurement on this, primary care and pharmacy market will also be taken by neighboring countries which affect not only the country’s reputation but also the economy. Therefore, we, Pharmily, are committed to work with all pharmacies to prevent this huge disaster by offering pharmacies system development and human resource with the vision of improving all existing pharmacies for better health.

    However, it has never been easy to prove the effectiveness of our services throughout the whole pharmacies market. Therefore, pharmily first decided to provide them benefits through rebate program of products they purchase from suppliers, which simply mean same order, better price, and more benefits. Besides, it allows pharmacies to purchase anywhere, anytime, and get up-todate promotions and schemes provided by Pharmaceutical companies. Later, pharmacies have full rights to choose more services and systems provided by us to upgrade their businesses.

    Solving Healthcare problem is a huge task and responsibility and it is required more efforts when it comes to persuade all pharmacy owners to choose our services as they are so comfortable with their old traditional style within their places; thus, we believe the key starters would be people from 3 different backgrounds: healthcare, IT and marketing. It is the right time for the new innovation of our local pharmacies or it is too late while many international franchises are hitting
    the local market in many sectors such as coffee shops and restaurants. That is why Pharmily is established to keep all local pharmacies as the signature of the country.

  3. Cambodia Luxary Arts (Cambodia)
  4. In Cambodia, during the Khmer Empire period, our culture was at its peak with the Angkor Wat as the evidence. Today, it is far off its formidable state and it’s been declining gradually that we must take actions to save our culture.
    As Cambodian youths and new generation of artists, we came up with the idea of creating Cambodia Luxury Arts Centre (CLAC), which will establish in June 2020 with the facility of 787 square foot located at the center of Phnom Penh city. This is a second stage from our small ongoing start since January 2017 as it was started substantially on service department. Mainly, this business is aimed to strengthen our culture and in turn find profit to feed our operation. This business plan is written to ensure maximum profitable growth which will increase within 3 years.
    Keys to success and critical factors are, in order of importance:
    * Penetration into the daytime market for art lessons.
    * Providing various design services
    * Showcasing uniquely crafted design products
    * Making sale of art supplies an additional profit source.
    VISION: Cambodia Luxury Arts Centre (CLAC) is the assembling of innovative ideas and cultural arts aim to enhance the lives of people by our creativity, quality and uniqueness of the products.
    MISSION:
    § To Preserve and promote identity of Cambodian arts § To gather all traditional Cambodian styles § To build Cambodia Artists § To bring Cambodia culture innovative products to the world.

  5. Ptas Sophak Mongkol (Cambodia)
  6. Phtas Sophak-Mongkol is a laundry service which provide a very comfortable and convenient service with acceptable price, safe & high technology system. Phtas Sophak-Mongkol also believes our future laundry service should gain more beneficial through saving water by recycling waste water to reusable water and saving electricity by conveying energy through Hydropower plant. Phtas Sophak-Mongkol can save even more Environmental polluted.
    Our strategy will focus in 2 different categories which one is about retail laundry service and another one is selling system as franchising. However, in the first 6 months in first year, we will run only retail laundry service as Show-Room to show by action to future franchising.
    Profits will initially be repaid to the business to finance any overhead costs related to purchasing inventory, then to the rapidly expanding photovoltaic recharging shop and mechanic ‘s laundry, then to pay off the initial investments. Inventory will be purchased in advance to stock. Their savings earned by Phtas Sophak-Mongkol’s high-tech system will spread by word-of- mouth, attract more customers, and bolster future growth at the same high rate of 50%.
    Not only will the retail laundry service is be the success of our company, but also franchising is the limit in terms of our potential market dominance as well. All of these profits can then be feedback into research and development opening the doorway to a secondary market role for Phtas Sophak-Mongkol.

  7. Scan Siev Phov (Cambodia)
  8. Because of the printing cost of colorful books, all student books in Asia are using only black ink. As a result, all the pictures in the books are black and white pictures which makes it hard for student to see. Therefore, my team created an app that scans the black and white pictures in Khmer high student books and links to the internet resources such images, videos, and 3D models for student to see in their phone in front of them. After we build our first prototype, we showed it to students and they always reply these back to us. “Wow it looks so cool !!! what is the name of the app?? I want to download it”. This means our app has the high potential of becoming viral easily in Cambodia.

  9. Padaek Nakai Factory (Laos)
  10. Padaek is a traditional Lao seasoning, since we, young generation don’t know the real history of its existing, who and how it was made in the past until present days.
    Padaek is produced by fermenting fish with rice bran or roasted rice powder and salt fermented in a closed container for at least six months.It is mostly found in southern Laos as an ingredient, or as a raw food.
    Previously, people usually made Padeak for their ownconsumption when they have fish more than the need of the family, in the past it wasn’t a problem to make Padaek at home but nowadays the situation is changed, many people have no access to the raw materials or there is not enough fish as in the past and the environment is not permit them to do by themselves. Therefore, the only one easy way is to buy it.
    Padaek is the main ingredient for Lao cuisine, Lao traditional dishes use Padaek over 80%, thought there are many substitution products like fish sauce or shrimp paste but still half of Lao population preferred Padaek. Furthermore, as we can see Lao people since kid of three years to adult ages consume Padaek.
    As many foreigners who travelled to Laos said that “When we think about Laos we think about a land of million elephant and the taste of Padaek”.

The type of game they liked the most were house-designing, and they wished to make their dream come true. However, the real-life interiors market in Vietnam was diverse and cost them a lot of time, as well as effort, in finding and choosing the perfect items for their dream rooms.

Each styling cases is considered a “task”, and we strive to make it as realistic as a serious real-life interior design case. Each task has its certain theme, and we offer guides on styling according to the task’s theme for green/ amateur designers. Users can also upload pictures of their room and style it.
