Enterprise Training
One central theme is how we add value so collaborators continue to contribute to a pool of knowledge so everyone benefits. Ie - retention so that movement swells, as opposed to high turnover. Specifics that we could optimize are:
- Feedback loop - venue for getting answers to your questions from the community. Technical community manager on the enterprise side. Forums - one for users - one for developers. Developer communitu is view only, unless you qualify.
- Annual conference - great community and vision building time
- Webinars - 2-way accessible only to members, 1-way by everyone else
- Enterprise webinar - open to distributive entreprise enterprise/tech developers only on specific roadmap only
- Coaching - on business problems, dedicated by staff

- Product development - all of us swarm on summer-long prototyping sessions. We teach skills, and we shift mindsets. This will be added as a part of the Summer of Extreme Design/Build
Basic Numbers
Intro
- We involve people to solve the housing issue for everybody: participants are expected to contribute know-how and experience
- We involve entrepreneurs as movement entrepreneurs solving Pressing World Issues
- The lowest-cost, most efficient, replicable housing that can be built DIY
- $50k for 1000 sf, built in one week. Disclaimer: builders spend 2-8 hours each weekend preparing for the week build by producing modules that are then assembled rapidly into place
- House is beautiful
- Focus on Seed Home - build a small core, then expand as your needs grow. Starting module is 1000 sf, but it can be as small as 256 sf for a complete system.
- Off-grid PV option
