At Medis, our core philosophy is, first of all, to be pragmatic. (Figure 2) To be pragmatic is to be cost effective, because we need to compete with existing battery technology which is widely available, with good technology and it's very, very cheap technology. To be cost effective, we need to be simple. And to be cost effective and simple, we need to be innovative. And of course, if you want to achieve commercial level, you need to be green. And this is our core philosophy. Business history of our innovation. (Figure 3) First five years, our company was concentrated on research, development, design, building prototypes and testing them. In 2005, first ever publicly represent our current product, which I will describe for you a little bit later.
