Generally, part of the reasons entrepreneurs are accorded respect is that they possess the ability to diversify. In the business world, we are witnessing a high rate of collaboration among different industries.
Co-operations like this are admired because it brings diverse ideas and resources from both industries. Also, customers receive a more comprehensive range of products to satisfy their insatiable wants.
Recently, we noticed a merger of the hospitality and health sector to produce a brilliant firm. The company responsible for this unique collaboration is Valetudo Systems. The company was founded by Debashish Talukdar, a young and innovative entrepreneur who saw the need for cooperation among these sectors.
Valetudo Systems is a cooperative company that creates products to eliminate viruses, bacteria and prevent deadly diseases.
Their first product, Helios, comes in the shape of an oven, and it uses UVC and magnetron to sanitize food. It also comes with an in-built camera. Once the food is prepared, the chef puts it into the Helios device. First, the UVC works on decontaminating the surface of the food; it doesn’t get into the core. UVC is a form of ultraviolet light and is germicidal.
So what happens to the germs inside the food? Well, that’s where magnetrons come to light; what does a magnetron do? Magnetrons generate microwave energy. The microwave energy travels through a waveguide and is distributed into a metal cavity where the food is cooked. The waves are absorbed by the food and excite water molecules in the food. This heat then transfers throughout the food cooking it.
During this process, a video is recorded using the inbuilt camera, the oven generates an OTP, and when the waiter serves the food, the customer gets this OTP and can use this to watch a video of their food being sanitized on Valetudo Systems’ website, This is achieved using blockchain. The whole process helps stop the spread of germs and foster trust between restaurants and their customers.
The second device, Phalion, is a self-driving sanitary robot that helps hotels and workspaces meet up with government rules and protocols for COVID-19. It does this by sanitizing a space of 120sqft in just 5 minutes. It also has a GPS attached to it which helps to know if a room was sanitized. The same blockchain technology used in UVC helios to establish trust is used here too. Phalion can be applied to hotel rooms, meeting spaces, and workplaces.
Why is the Valetudo System collaboration important?
The need for cooperation among companies in various sectors cannot be overemphasized at this time. Presently, the world is experiencing challenges with tackling a global health menace that has adversely affected other industries as well. The ease of doing business is impossible, and making a profit from business ventures is not guaranteed, especially for peculiar sectors like the hospitality industry.
“Most of us come from a marketing background, mainly focused on the hospitality industry. Covid knocked the industry to rubble, and our companies were no longer an economic option. So we needed to think of ways to help bring our industry back to life,” Debashish said in an interview.
As a company, Valetudo Systems makes it better to work together by joining resources and skills that are essential to achieving the common goal of doing business in a safe and healthy environment.
“At Valetudo Systems, we build products that focus on humanity and the global immune system, this is Valetudo’s uniqueness. Our main principle relies on a healthier world that creates a stronger global economy,” Debashish says.
When Debashish Talukdar set out to create this cooperative company, the goal was way beyond profit-making. The picture was bigger than making extra cash because it extended to the welfare of other businesses, their customers, and the public in general.
“The business has its unique ecosystem, it is not just for profits and loss. You have to look at the whole picture that is involved. We looked at humanity more than the product and I think it is paying off,” He says.
This collaboration will have a long-term impact on the industries involved in relation to the public. The device creates a global immune system that helps to keep the world healthier.
“We are building global immune systems to help keep the world healthier. Our products focus on the new expectations of sanitation while being transparent. Therefore, we create a product for today that strengthens tomorrow,” Debashish says.
