About The Customer
SpokaneTechJobs is designed for the Spokane tech startup scene. It caters to both job seekers and employers in the tech industry. Job seekers can use the app to discover local tech companies that are hiring, create profiles to highlight their skills, and apply for jobs. On the other hand, employers can claim their business listing and start posting job vacancies. The app provides a unique view of the community using a map, which helps users feel more connected to the city. It also fosters a more open and knowledgeable tech community in Spokane.
The Challenge
Adam Parish, a longtime member of the Spokane startup scene, identified a gap in the local tech job market. He noticed that global sites like LinkedIn and Indeed made it challenging for job seekers to learn about their local tech scene and discover who was hiring. The lack of a dedicated platform for local tech job listings was hindering the growth of the tech community in Spokane. Additionally, Parish wanted to create a more open and knowledgeable community, but he didn't have the coding skills to develop a traditional app. He needed a solution that would allow him to create a user-friendly app without having to learn to code.
The Solution
Parish turned to Bubble, a no-code web app builder, to create SpokaneTechJobs, a local job listing and company directory app. He spent a month learning Bubble's platform 'inside and out,' which enabled him to build his app quickly and without any coding. SpokaneTechJobs offers a unique view of the community using a map as the primary view, making visitors feel more connected to the city. Job seekers can create profiles to highlight their skills and apply for jobs, while employers can claim their business listing and start posting jobs. The app is built as a single-page app to make the user experience feel lightning fast. Parish also used a bit of custom CSS to enhance the app's design.

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Digital Transformation of Atlanta Grout & Tile: An IoT Case Study
Atlanta Grout & Tile, a Tile, Stone & Grout restoration company based in Woodstock, Georgia, was facing challenges with its traditional business model. Despite steady growth over the years, the company was falling behind the web revolution and missing out on the opportunity to tap into a new consumer base. They were using independent software from different vendors for each of their department information and workforce management. This resulted in a lot of manual work on excel and the need to export/import data between different systems. This not only increased overhead costs but also slowed down their response to clients. The company also had to prepare numerous reports manually and lacked access to customer trends for effective business decision-making.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.
