| Abstract: |
| The basic idea behind Hydropolis is to provide an easily accessible laundromat service to hostel students. For our start-up, we’re designing a service that will allow students across Pakistan to do their laundry by themselves while they’re away from home. The self-operating laundromat business model is known throughout the world to be successful. |
| What is the unmet need in society that your idea will fulfill ? |
| Unlike many industries that have managed to automate and revolutionize their operations, Laundromats in Pakistan are still stuck in the past. Most laundromats in Pakistan require extensive manpower and have everyday operations. Hydropolis will change and address this flaw. |
| Who needs it ? How many would benefit ? |
| Hostilities that require laundry services for everyday clothing rely on either subpar services or wash their clothes by hand. The project's scope is within one hostel of Nust, but the idea can be expanded to accommodate multiple student residential areas. |
| How will the solution works |
| We'll be initiating our start-up model at NUST Hostel. A database of the registered customers will be made through which the timeslots and machine availability can be monitored easily. We'll be offering a subscription and a one-time-use user model. The former is when a customer registers to use the laundromat at a specific time. The machine will be controlled by using SMART Technology through an existing app that will control the machine's operational start and end time. |
| Who are your competitors ? How is your solution different |
| Laundry services follow the same procedure that was followed decades ago with no improvements. Unlike other countries, where the independence and convenience of users are given importance, this sector is still traditional and slow. With Hydropolis, Hostilities have convenience and privacy. |
