So here we have a little postcard station where this company is offering
to like sponsor a postcard that you send to a friend
So here for example you can
any one of your friends, invite them to something
Ya, it's really cute
This wall says "take what you need"
But everything is in German. So how am I supposed to know?
What does "mut" mean? "Hoffnung"?
I guess it's good to stretch a little bit huh? Is it?
So welcome back everyone. I'm here with Christian Hirsig.
He is the creator of...
Powercoders
Powercoders. And it is a coding camp that started in Basel or Bern?
Bern
I'm just off to a really bad start
That started in Bern.
and they're just like
What they created is that
you'll see the TED talk. When it's posted online, on their TED talk YouTube page, I'll link it below
But basically they teach refugees? Is it mainly refugees or all immigrants?
Refugees
Refugees to code and then help them find jobs.
And so welcome!
Thanks for having me here.
So I wanted to know. There's a lot of public bias against
refugees and I could assume that, that is one of the big hurdles for getting
people to open them doors. Like once they're at the door they knock they ask
ok but what is the
What is a way to fight the public bias when it comes to
offering these doors to people to open?
Yeah, so I think there are not so many
people who are really against like I think it's it feels like that because
that's what media is telling us. I think there are...
I would say there are 10% Super-pro, 10% super-against and 80% are just not experienced
So, I think if you can engage the 10% who are really pro and think that they want to do something
and want to help to then get the other 80% on board you have a huge
majority and the 10% who are reluctant to that change and who don't want to
be a help and not opening doors, don't care about them just ignore them.
Don't offend them but just yeah it's just their opinion and everyone can
choose who they want to support and not and maybe they support some great Swiss
people or they support pets or whatever like they they probably
do something good but they don't they are not needed. I think the 10% who are
already in your favor it's important that you have efficient ways how you can
find them okay that's what power quarters is about enabling these 10% to
then convince the other 80% okay what is like the business model like how could
you expand this because from what it looked like I don't know if it's a
social business like where it's a it's like self propelling but because from
from what from your talk it seemed like it comes from a good heart that like it
was planted from a good heart so how can you expand this sort of
business model like are you just relying on other people to have the same
motivations the same motives of you or is there sort of like a business model
in the background that could help it grow yeah so there mainly it is so when
I speak I speak to these people that I can encourage to do something so I think
they're half there it's important that there are people with good hearts you
want to make change otherwise it will just die then the big question is how do
you want it you want to buy them you want to pay them as much that they do it
and so I think this monetary incentive doesn't work it doesn't not even works
in business life so I think why should it work in a non-profit so like what we
are trying to do is that we can engage these people who have a good heart but
maybe don't know how they can act okay I think it's actually way more that there
are not enough good hearts around I believe there are enough good parts
around but the big question is how can we put our concept in a box that if
someone is unwrapping it that they find something they can immediately act on
where they don't make too many mistakes where they don't fall in every pitfall
that we have been and folding so that we just enable these
people and that's mainly the mission and the business model is quite easy like
there are so many stakeholders who profit from what we're doing so there
are the refugees who finally finally find a job we don't make them pay right
now but it could be that they give back at a certain time so when they have a
job they could give back to a nonprofit organization to enable the next batch of
people or the companies who have waken IT jobs so if they find a talent and
they don't have to pay a headhunter or someone who looks for them so they could
pay the organization we don't make them pay right now but then there is the
government so the government is supporting our state can save Social
Welfare costs so why not putting these costs they save on social welfare in
bringing people into jobs then they stay there for for the future and it like
especially in Switzerland there are many foundations around of people who made a
lot of money who want to give back and right now we are targeting mostly
foundations here in Switzerland I'm positive or I'm afraid that will not
work throughout Europe like because there is probably not that much old
money around but I'm very very positive that there will be government's who are
facing refugee issues and saying hey we can put a little bit of the money into
education and I'm very positive that their companies and refugees would be
open also to pay for what we are doing so I think that's okay
well thank you that was all my questions but I really appreciate you taking the
time to answer them and I really really like what you're doing I really like the
idea thank you so much
So this is a pretty cool concept. It's like an online
It's like an interactive grocery store.
Where you get information on this screen as soon as you point to what food you want to buy.
So I guess if you point at the oranges, on that screen you can see information about
All of the nutritional information about oranges
Where they're from, etc.
I have no idea what this is.
But now that I'm smiling it's not going to be fair.
My sad face looks like...
My laughing face looks
So I just finished at TEDx Zurich final thoughts of the day it was totally worth
it worth the application that I had to buy in order to be invited to pay for a
ticket lol I interviewed mathematician professor at Ithaca
and so her interview will also be up yeah
met some really cool people I really liked the there was a comedian that like
made fun of Switzerland and also tons of other places but he was really funny he
started off by saying I wanted to do stand-up
but I'm Swiss I thought that was funny other thoughts some presentations
actually I didn't find that interesting but the ones that I really liked when
they come out I will link them below ok I just tried to like recall the best
takeaways from TEDx and then I came home and I looked in my mint because half of
it is eaten and I almost died I thought there was a snake in it turns out it was
just a caterpillar anyway so I just fought off a ginormous snake with wings
okay Ted takeaways so I got this like Polaroid one of the volunteers she was
like oh would you like a Polaroid in front of the Ted side I was like yeah
sure so like I went in front of the Ted side
to take a poll right and then like some guy just came up and stood next to me so
this is the result of that just got me and some random guy in front of the Ted
sign yeah pretty good no but I want to quickly explain like the brainwaves game
so like you saw in the video like there's this one game that's like it
uses your brain waves to control it so basically what it does is like a clip I
think it's like some sort of like it like monitors your nerve here like it
just feels the nerve and then they feel the nerves like around your head and
basically what it does is like you have this little guy running and um sometimes
he's running on purple and sometimes he was running on grey and when he's
running on the purple section you have to really activate your brain so I was
literally doing like before I went up I thought of some integrals that I was
gonna solve and then when I was there like all I did was like I just did these
integrals in my head like you really want your brain to be active and then
but the really hard part is like on the gray part when your character gets to
the gray part and he's running like it's a race that's the competition like the
little video game when you get to the grey part you actually have to like turn
off your brain like you have to have try as hard as you can not to have an active
brain and like I don't know at least for me when I try really hard not to have an
active brain I end up having an active brain yeah it was really cool we had an
Apatow afterwards of course it would be Switzerland unless we had an app that oh
what is an apple an apple in Switzerland is like basically in the evenings after
any event its beer and wine and some appetizers
and networking that's an app it'll everyone has it in Switzerland yeah
that's what it's called probably called something different in other countries
