"It was not in the outer space of the galaxy, it took place on our earth. Tony Dyson creator of the world’s most famous robot R2-D2, one of the most beloved characters of the Star Wars saga created iBot2000, the new generation of avatars. Little is known about Tony Dyson’s second passion and expertise - that of being an internationally acknowledged online expert, holding lectures all around the world. Via foundercontact international, Tony Dyson met LXX PortfolioHouse, which introduced him and iBot2000 to me as foundercontact member. This link was the start of a partnership. We developed iBot2000 further, from a virtual teacher, which is actually tested in US-schools to a virtual co-worker for corporations. This spring is the start of the worldwide marketing of iBot2000. The media is delighted by iBot2000 and there is no doubt that iBot2000, as the partnership of Tony and myself, which started in foundercontact international, will have a promising future.

"It sounds very clichéd, but time indeed is money. We know that our core-competences will eventually win us deals, but one wishes for a talisman that makes things possible quickly. Founders’ Contact has been just this talisman for me. I am amazed at the speed it has added to my professional dealings… this is apart from the joy that comes with bumping into one’s old professional contacts and friends! An old friend and I bumped into each other here, and soon found ourselves signing an MOU of technology cooperation that is slated to convert into meaningful business. Another cliché, but Foundercontact is surely a ‘win-win’ situation for all !!". Ajay Mahajan, ceo and founder of SmartTECH, New Delhi - India.
