Executive SummaryVaccinat
2、ion spoilage at the provider site is a major problem throughout the world. In the developing world, this is due to unreliable power grids, untrained and overworked personnel, and lack of resources for vaccine purchase. With the limited resources of NGOs in the developing world, vaccine spoilage redu
3、ces the ability to vaccinate against easily preventable and sometimes deadly diseases. In many cases, this leads to the administration of spoiled vaccines, which gives the illusion of protection or, worse yet, can be toxic to the patient. We have designed a refrigerator accessory that will prevent t
4、his by minimizing power consumption and cold loss during regular refrigerator use as well as informing against the administration of spoiled vaccines and maintaining a simple inventory system. This will be a cost effective solution because even a reasonable reduction of 10-30% in energy consumption
5、would allow the user to make up the cost of the product in energy savings within 1-3 years. The potential for our product to save both energy and lives is great motivator for our team.Green Dot Technologies is made up of five biomedical engineering students from Columbia University. Wc have acquired

Our sensitivity to the needs of the developing world make us particularly capable of tackling these difficult problems.We intend to market th

We would like to partner with these groups to give them a reliable method by which to maintain and dispense vaccinations. In the developed world, we hope to market versions of our product to
8、 healthcare facilities including pharmacies and hospitals and in the future to refrigeration companies who will market it to individuals for home use.since the results from the pilot study will provide further support for the use and development of our product. Wc plan to make our first sales in 201
9、1, most likely to NGOs operating in areas near the pilot study locations. We expect to keep 30% of sales profits, with the other 70% going to our refrigeration partner. Research and development costs will continue to rise in 2010 through 2013 as we continue our pilot study and then develop the two s
10、ubsequent product models for the developed world. These costs will flatten out in 2014, after the release of these new models, and will he used to improve components of existing models.Break Even AnalysisBreak-Even AnalysisVanaote um cm：Total wiu* cosu S240 000Fteod cwt 20000Total o al costs S260.00

This puts our product in a particularly favorable position to profit from the movement toward reducing our reliance on energy while also providing reliable vaccinations in the developing world and alleviating a portion of the global health crisis.II.
