We are proud to announce ZeroCash SDG Funding and Trimark Technologies LTD as some of the first socially-enterprise projects to also have joined forces with DAIA.

These partnerships represents our core value that AI technologies can be developed to help our societies fight poverty, hunger and achieve other Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as well. With ambitious plans to solve some global challenges through technology, our synergies are deeply shared.

For Dr. Fazal, the brain behind those two projects, decentralization and Artificial Intelligence are meant to be and in his own words:

“Every human action carries a potential worth that can be monetized to a value that a given economy can support”.

With this reasoning, there is huge potential for the underutilized or of human activities to be converted into blockchain resources for the eradication of poverty. He continues:

“Those possibilities made me realize the duty we all collectively have towards humanity of empowering the impoverished, and the obligations we owe to the coming generations by eradicating extreme poverty and achieving sustainability, which otherwise look impossible to achieve.”

ZeroCash SDG Funding

For ZeroCash SDG Funding, there are no excuses for leaving willing talent and capital sitting on the sidelines unused when billions face extreme poverty and millions still go hungry.

The project relies upon a new decentralized platform that incentivizes equitable sharing and monetization of influence between peers. The objective is to raise funds for innovative projects without anyone actually having to pay for it. By capitalizing on the influence of peer networks to fund projects, ZeroCash SDG Funding reveals a new generation of crowdfunding platforms that do not involve risk, cash or investments of currency.

David Bell, ZeroCash SDG Funding Co-founder sees a lot of potential in this partnership with DAIA:

“In today’s society, startups have an uphill battle when it comes to funding. With ZeroCash and SDG1, funding becomes much easier for projects that have the greater good in mind. We believe that with DAIA, a much broader scope can be achieved in impact investment. ZeroCash tech will afford the opportunity to any bright mind with a desire to achieve overall good, to have funds in place to propel the idea forward and all while not taking money from anyone. We look forward to a collaborative effort between ourselves and DAIA.”

Trimark Technologies LTD

Established in March 2018 by young entrepreneurs from Xi’an Jiaotong and Xi Gonda Universities, Trimark Technologies LTD provides disruptive solutions for emerging markets. As a consulting and an advisory firm, their solutions are focused on making a difference in the world for a healthier and sustainable future.

Trimark Technologies LTD has a lot of potential in the Chinese market. Their services include strategic planning, production, marketing as well as licensing and research and development. They are also organizing the ambitious Influence 2030 forum in Xi’an later this year which aims to bringSDGs back on track and change the world.

As TTL CFO, Pavan Reddy shared with us:

“China is bullish on blockchain and AI, both of which are the primary focus of Trimark’s alliance with DAIA in addition to our mutual interest in SDGs. Any global initiative on decentralized AI with sustainability emphasis, therefore, cannot ignore China. our strategic location in Xi’an, the city which hosts history’s biggest sustainability project — “Silk Road” — places us in a position to be a significant contributor to DAIA.”

He continues:

“Besides our product portfolio that includes several devices makes us perhaps the only technology company that has multiple products in the pipeline that use both AI and blockchain. Nothing can be more exciting than getting connected to a forum that offers access to state-of-the-art AI and blockchain resources and influencers.”

How can you get involved?

Our vision is to foster a world where AI technologies and associated data are made open with decentralized, democratic control for the benefit of all sentient beings.

The immense potential of AI means that it can either increase the inequalities of our societies or liberate us from numerous sufferings. We believe the best way forward is to come together and work practically toward creating a better future. We see a massive potential for evolution in the established centralized corporations. We believe tech giants can contribute immensely toward making the vision of DAIA a reality.

We are welcoming the participation of those corporations that are sincere about their aim and goal of democratizing AI. The open access networks that have come together to form DAIA, such as ZeroCash SDG Funding and Trimark Technologies LTD are the enabling layer for such a democratization process.
