- 5. Journey from Heaven to Hell – The Change of Perspectives • As a consequence I have lived a rather decent life, with an ok living in Sweden, a house in Spain, an apartment in a greek paradise island… • … apart from one year there was no paradise, but refugee children from Syrian war being washed up on the beaches, and 1700 people without home, food, clothes • I cried. My woman cried. We just had children, two gorgeous twin boys, and those kids on the beach could have been ours
- 6. The First Stumbling Steps to Doing Good • At the same time, I had been accused of being one of Europe’s best digital strategists • So why could I not use that insane power to not only help Mercedes sell more cars, and Samsung sell more phones, but actually do good? • So I went home, started a FB-group • Within 1 week I had 2.000 members, within 2 weeks our apartment was literally filled with donations (luckily I had two ☺) • I went down with 43 cases, spons- ored by airline, helped by rock climbing friends for distribution at the local ground
- 7. Scaling Up the Good - Offline • But Kalymnos was not the only place with refugee children starving and freezing, so once started, you cant stop • I started an NGO with 17 excursions, from Croatia, Slovenia to Syria & Iraq • In total help to 70,000 refugees • My life changed, and I wanted to do more :-/ • I started by writing a letter…

- 11. AIAR EdTech Ltd AS THE ANSWER TO THE GLOBAL SKILLING CRISIS AI and automation is killing a lot of jobs • 70 million young people are already unemployed in the world • Now over 75 million jobs are expected to disappear during Globalization 4.0 and its transition from man to machine in the next few years. But AI and automation also means a lot of jobs are created • But, yes, more than 130 million jobs are also expected to be added in areas where there is not enough competence today • Especially in technical skills (STEM), but also a lot of "human" skills, in total more than half of the people in the world will need reskilling of 1-12 months within the next year
- 12. AND THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING • The Scope: And so far we only talked about the people that need to reskill, where the total market of education includes 2,5 billion people • The investor: Regarding doing well for investors, this is an industry worth $6 trillion – twice as big as the car industry. • The society: Regarding doing good for society, this is the most powerful weapon to change the world
- 13. SO WHO SHOULD SOLVE THIS PROBLEM? The analogue world • Has not provided sufficient solution, so far they didn’t even succeed in helping the 260 million children in the world without access to school • Adding to that broadly reckoned to prepare people for life, while not sufficiently preparing people for jobs. The digital world • But like many other major world problems, such as in the climate crisis and distributed wealth, both the problems and the solution in skilling, are to be found in modern digital technology. • AIAR: solves this by using by not using new technology to repair old processes, but actually innovating new ones

- 20. • The rule of the game: if you solve a small problem you get a small business, if you solve a big problem you get a big business. In line with this AIAR regards nothing but the biggest “business” possible. • Best-in-Class: In all modern online verticals we have an hourglass structure with 2-3 “gorillas” dominating, a lot of local initiatives at the bottom, and nothing in between → i.e. winner takes it all. Disclaimer:Thisisamodelcalculationbasedontheassumptionofthewholestrategywillbesuccessfullyimplementedwithfullattractionofthemarket.Actualresultsmightdeviate. But Didn’t We Forgot Something? What About Doing Well for Investors? I can not talk for SID and Dope Card (or I actually could, I would invest in them any time, probably will ☺) – but can only talk for myself: AIAR will not only do good for society, but also for investors - € 2000000 000 € 4000000 000 € 6000000 000 € 8000000 000 € 10000000 000 € 12000000 000 € 14000000 000 € 16000000 000 € 18000000 000 € 2 018 2 019 2 020 2 021 2 022 AIAR Estimated Revenue 2018-22 • Cashflow: With an aggressive attack for dominating market, this will give a negative cash flow -$20M in 2020, and a healthy profit margin with cash flow of $3B in 2023 • Solid unicorn potential: Googles highest ranked futurist claims that the biggest Internet company 2030 will be a digital school – Given the right implementation the ambition of AIAR is nothing less than becoming this digital school! • Penetration: In line with this AIAR will become one of those 2-3 gorillas, with 30 million users by 2020 and 1 billion users by 2023 • Revenue: with a modest ARPU of $1 (USD) in 2020 and $10 in 2023, the revenue will be $30M in 2020 and $10B 2023.
