1. Executive Summary
As smartphones begin to grow rapidly in the mobile phone industry, most smartphone users face a common issue: short battery life. The constant connection to wireless network has greatly reduced the battery life of these phones to a day or less. To overcome this problem, companies came up with external battery charger to extend battery life. However these external chargers require charging beforehand and more importantly, they still limit the battery life to an extent. In the current market there are portable solar chargers for smartphones but nonetheless they are separate devices that are bulky and expensive. Our product, iSoleil, is an organic solar film that charges portable consumer devices such as smartphones, laptops and tablets. It is embedded into the screen of the device with a thickness of 0.1mm. It gives users access to limitless battery life as long as users are under ambient light. Additionally our solution supersedes the present ones at a fraction the price and provides an environmental friendly option to consumers. Q.cell is a B2B company engaging directly with mobile device makers. Embedding iSoleil into mobile devices will be done during manufacturing stage, making it infeasible for consumers to purchase and install our product themselves. Our marketing team will approach major mobile device companies to promote iSoleil. Promoting iSoleil to these companies will be based on three main features: non-existent, green technology and affordable. Initial year will be focused on selling our product as contracts to smartphone makers at bulk quantities of 100,000 for S$50 per piece. We will expand to laptop and tablet PC makers, selling them at 30,000 for S$100 per piece and 40,000 for S$75 each respectively in the second and third year. To sustain competitive advantage, we will adopt the four strategic approaches. Firstly iSoleil, at a technological forefront, will be the first of its kind to be available in the market. The ingenuity of iSoleil is that it allows smartphone users to be able to use their devices and charge them at the same time. Smartphone manufacturers can then reduce the size of phone batteries, relying on iSoleil to partly charge the phone and thus minimizing the weight of smartphones. Secondly, iSoleil will be sold at an affordable price of S$50 a piece to smartphone makers. Next, we will patent this technology to have exclusive rights. Lastly, as opposed to existing chargers that are made for specific mobile devices, iSoleil integrates itself into all devices. This gives us the ability to capture the entire smartphone market share. In the first year, Q.cell will require an office to base our operations. Next, research and development will begin concurrently with filing of our patent. Production of iSoleil will begin shortly after and at the same time we will market iSoleil to seal our first and second contract. On account of our expansion plans, we will focus on three areas namely improving the efficiency of our organic solar films, tapping into laptop and tablet PC markets and securing
Q.Cell Page 1

more contracts with smartphone manufacturers. A major share of our profits will be directed to research and development to improve on our current technology. As of 2008 laptop sales exceeded desktop for the first time and with the encouraging growth of tablet PCs, these two markets poised to be major markets for consumer devices. In the second and third year of setting up, we will start producing solar films for tablets PCs and laptops respectively. In year 1 we plan to sign 2 contracts with 2 smartphone manufacturers to integrate iSoleil into their phones. As part of our expansion plan, we will want to clinch more deals with other manufacturers. As a local start-up, we value Q.cell at S$5million seeking for an investment of S$500,000 from interested investors. Contracts with smartphone manufacturers will bring in sales but high start-up cost required for research and development and production result in negative cash flow of S$276,804 for the first year. However, second and third year post positive cash flow of S$2,047,006 and S$3,727,114 respectively due to robust sales from smartphone, tablets and laptop contracts. Similar to cash flow, return on investment will post negative returns for first year and positive returns for second and third year. Return on investment for first, second and third year are -8.593, 7.645 and 12.256 accordingly.

2. Value Proposition and Innovation


Value Proposition

Problem Having iSoleil, the issue of short battery lifetimes will be settled. Although we know that mobile phone consumers have chargers for their smartphones, most of them choose not to bring them because of the weight and the long wires. Having a non-existent charger without wires will create more convenience for smartphone consumers in terms of weight and problem of dangling wires. Opportunity With iSoleil, the problem of a battery running flat outdoors can be solved. Having a nonexistent charger without wires will create more convenience for smartphone consumers in terms of weight and problem of dangling wires. For the first year, our company will focus on developing our product for smartphones. In the next two years, new designs of solar film will be launched for laptops and tablets. According to the research studies done by International Energy Agency (IEA), the needs of solar power will rise, representing up to 25% of global electricity use. Nowadays, people are starting to change their silicon electronics into solar power electronics since silicon harms the

Q.Cell

Page 2

environment. In a longer term, solar power electronics may make a significant contribution to the company as its use becomes more widespread. Innovation iSoleil is different current ones in the market that it is directly integrated into the smartphones, and so iSoleil is non-existent to the end user, eliminating the need to charge the device as long as there is ambient light.

3. Market Identification and Analysis


Market Opportunities Looking at the current market condition, we conclude that smartphones have a rising popularity among mobile phone consumers. Driven by the huge demands from the markets, gadget producers are actively developing new device models and systems to their brands. With developed systems, complementing applications and features for the gadgets are readily available as well. In order to keep up with ever increasing smartphone capabilities, we need long lasting power sources. However, the battery may not last as long as the users need it to last, and carrying chargers everywhere creates inconvenience in term of portability and simplicity. Thus, there is a need to have another power source that is possible to be integrated directly in the gadgets. Target Market We will be a B2B company dealing directly with major consumer device manufacturers. Major smartphone, tablet PCs and laptop makers form the base of customers. By using our product, these manufacturers can cut down on the need for bulky batteries and rely on iSoleil to provide power to their devices. As iSoleil requires integration into mobile devices as part of the manufacturing process, the inability for consumers to incorporate iSoleil into their own is the main reason for us to target consumer device makers. Also raising awareness may pose some difficulty as consumers may shun away for an almost intangible item. In the first year, we will like to focus on the integration of solar films into smartphones. The following year, we will like to have laptop producers as our partners. In year 3, more gadgets such as tablets will be targeted. Competitors The presence of competitors offering the same value proposition in their products poses a risk to our company. Some competitor products include laptop cases, roll-up thin films, and flat foldable panels, all of which offer portable solar charging. The difference in our product is its portability in terms of size, having thickness of 0.1mm. The competitor products mentioned
Q.Cell Page 3

above may be portable, however, they are bulky or take up a considerable amount of space when unrolled or unfolded. This differentiation of our product creates a competitive edge compared to other similar products. One major direct competitor in portable solar charger packs is Eton Corporation, which recently introduced Mobius, a solar-powered iPhone charger case. The Mobius boasts a slim and lightweight design, with dimensions 61.9 x 129.5 x 22.2 mm (W x H x D). Yet, in comparison to our product, the Mobius still adds extra bulk to the iPhone. The difference in size will be obvious especially for consumers with smaller hands, who may find difficulty in having a good grip of their devices. On the other hand, our product is placed at the screen side, which enables the solar cell to work even when users are using it. An indirect competitor in organic solar technology is Konarka Technologies. Currently, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory has certified that Konarkas solar cells have achieved an efficiency of 8.3%, the highest recorded for organic solar cells. This reveals an opportunity for research for our company as any efficiency higher than 8.3% would present a competitive advantage.

4. Marketing and Sales Strategy


Marketing Execution 4Ps Products Key selling points of our product include the use of green technology, being non-existent and affordable. Using green technology can help mobile device manufacturers promote their product as being environmental friendly, thus placing them in a better position to promote their products. With the continuous improvement of solar cell efficiency, we will be able to tap even more sunlight to power our devices. iSoleil is also affordable compared to current products on the market, like Mobius portable charger which costs about SGD$100. Our product costs SGD$50 and this affordability is derived from the use of organic photovoltaic technology which is cheaper to manufacture than regular solar cells. Place We will mainly conduct product prototype demonstrations and sales pitches to individual mobile phone companies. Our office building is located at Singapore Science Park, together with the Research and Development facilities. The customer service team is readily available to help if a representative from companies requires more information. Besides our physical presence, we will also provide complete information about our products, offers, and promotions in our website. For convenience of customers, our representative may go to the customers offices
Q.Cell Page 4

or plants directly to discuss further about the contracts. Upon the completion of the contract, our team will do delivery of the integrated screen. Price We will sell iSoleil in bulk to the companies in order quantities of 100,000 at SG$50 each. Later on in year two and three, laptop solar films will be sold in bulk of 30,000 at SG$100. Tablet solar films will also be sold in bulk of 40,000 selling at SG$75 each. Promotions We would market directly to our potential customers. Here is our tentative plan for promotion: Hold a company tour and invite representatives from mobile developers to join Hold seminars in business district area and invite our Research and Development team and other related speakers (about solar technology) to engage representatives from companies Do a direct sales presentation of our prototype in our clients offices Maintain the information and friendliness in our website for the convenience of customers SWOT Analysis 3.1 Strengths This is a new technology in the market, which satisfies the market needs. The usage of solar films is highly beneficial for mobile consumers, as it will enable their gadgets to perform at full potential for longer periods of time. Furthermore, it will be integrated directly into their devices. End users do not have to worry about the hassle of an external charging device. Thus, we expect more device users to switch to this new technology, and this shift will result in more profits for our clients. Furthermore, the price of $50 is affordable compared to other products in the industry, which make our product value for money. 3.2 Weaknesses As a start-up providing new technologies, we will have to turn non-existent demands toward latent demands. Proof is essential because our potential customers would probably like to see our credibility. Because we have no previous history in providing this solar system in mobile devices, we will make prototypes to exhibit its effectiveness. 3.3 Opportunities In a globalization world, communication is essential. Therefore, many devices are actively produced to support the ease of communication. This growing consumer communication industry provides a good base for us to tap into the market pool by introducing a new, value, and useful technology. 3.4 Threats Solar technology is not new in the market. We have numerous competitors who are offering a similar value proposition like us. The existence of our competitors could be a threat for us, if we could not offer a competitive advantage. Thus, our simple and light model of solar film
Q.Cell Page 5

and our chargers efficiencies will be maintained by our Research and Development team. Further discussion about competitors and risk analysis will be elaborated in the chapter to come. Risk Analysis/Competitor Research Our company recognizes the risks involved in the product venture. The risks and mitigation will be discussed in this section, in addition to ways of keeping ahead of our competitors. Market Risk Our company may face market risk, in which the product may not be well-received by companies when the product is first released. As organic solar technology is still relatively undeveloped, companies may not have absolute confidence to purchase our product. This may be overcome through our market strategies to increase awareness of the product. Compatibility The next difficulty we may face is compatibility issues of the chargers with the gadgets. Due to the wide range of gadgets we endeavour to eventually cater to, much research has to be done. To ensure compatibility of the chargers with their respective gadgets, it is vital that proper outsourcing is carried out for the Research and Development department of the company.

8. Operational & Expansion Plan


Our main growth strategy is by selling contracts of smart phone solar charger to major mobile phone companies, like Samsung and Apple. We will offer our contract to the highest bidder after our prototype demonstration to all these companies. Our expansion strategy would be to produce portable solar charger for tablets and laptops. At third year, we plan to increase the number of contracts of our products as more people get to know our products over time. Continuous technological improvements to our products will sustain the demand of our consumers. To do this, another factory and warehouse will be rented to accommodate our expansion. Administrative, manpower and utility expenses will increase accordingly to accommodate the expansion. The purpose of our expansion of business is also to attract potential companies to buy over our company as an exit strategy after three years. We foresee that at the third year, the demand of our product will reach its peak, and that it is an optimal time to sell away our company.

In the first year, we expect that we can manage to get two contracts which are worth 5,000,000 each. We are planning to sell 100,000 units of solar cells, which costs 50 dollars per unit, in each contract. Our main product in this year is solar charger for smart phone. But, we will suffer a negative profit of 424,571 dollars because high fixed and sunk cost occurred in the first year. In the second year, we predict that our sales increase rapidly by selling contracts of 30,000 units of laptop solar cell charger with 100 dollars per unit and 40,000 units of laptop solar cell charger with 75 dollars per unit in this year. Two of such contracts will be sold during this year. Our main product is still portable solar charger for smart phones and general hand phones. Hence, the sales of smart phone solar cell charger will remain the same. Therefore we will get positive net income of 4,101,724 dollars after tax. In the third year, we forecast that we get four laptop solar cell charger contracts which are worth 3 million each and five smart phones solar cell contracts which are worth 5 million each. Total quantity sold for smart phone solar cell charger is 500,000, while that of laptop solar cell charger is 120,000.

As shown from above figure, our firm will expect a sum valuation of $ 5,524,316 by Year 3. Since there is no debt from second year , we have evaluated our company with a total valuation of $5.52 million. Q. Cell is requesting $500,000 from our investors over three years in exchange of 10% equity open to public. Q. Cell will issue 1 million shares in total. Only 100,000 shares will be sold to public and 510,000 shares will be issued to CEO, while the rest will be divided equally to others of co-founders.
Q.Cell Page 22

Price Per share = S$500,000 / 100,000 = S$5.0 Pre-Money value = S$5x 1,000,000 = S$5 million Post Money value = S$5 million + S$500,000 = S$5.5 million. Use of proceeds The money raised from our sales will be used to offset operational costs. More importantly, the proceeds will be used in our eventual expansion of the company in the third year. Care has been taken set aside equity so that investors will gain by investing in us. Funding required and equity offered In the first year, our initial start-up capital would amount to 10,270,567 dollars. Due to large amount of capital required to set up our business, especially in the first three months, we need to apply for bank loan in addition to the initial investment. The management will borrow 1,400,000 dollars, shared equally among the individual members. This amount will be paid off by the end of the first financial year, when we would have already made 10,000,000 dollars in sales. In the second and third year, we would have made enough to self-sustain our business purely by sales and current equity. Exit Strategy Our main exit strategy is to let an acquisition company buy over ours. We are planning to start find the suitable acquirer from the end of second year. Once such a company is found, we will start our expansion strategy so that the company will remain appealing for the company taking over. If in the case at the end of third year we are unable to find a suitable acquirer, then we will plan to merge with a reputable company in the industry, such as 3M.
