In response to Who does your solution serve, and in what ways will the solution impact their lives?

The off grid element and high insulation are attractive. Would be useful to know, from a material perspective, of potential rebound effects from wide scale application of this approach to housing. Also interesting would be to know if such an individualised approach to housing can be supported by zoning and available construction land in Pakistan.

What's great about the technology is that it delivers more sustainable and energy efficient homes at a lower cost in comparison to conventional homes in the country. This is not just attractive for end users but helps save a considerable amount of energy and water for the country.

Moreover, the houses have received building code approvals from all relevant authorities and sit well with local zoning laws.

Intermesh system sounds very exciting, as can also be easily applied to disaster areas.

In response to What is your business model?

lot's of listing here without clear explanations

Nabeel Siddiqui

This listings show our business model canvas. Essentially we are a technology provider that outsources manufacturing and conducts direct sales to organizations working in affordable housing. The outsourced model is by far the most scalable way to deliver homes quickly and also creates employment in the country.
