Hi everyone. A huge thank you for your presence today.
It's incredible for us.
When we booked the room, the condition was to bring 500 people.
People asked us : "Are you confident you'll get 500 people?"
At first, we said "yes we are confident".
Back in the car, we weren't so sure anymore!
We really wondered if we would have enough people.
But, thanks to you, we are sold out.
It will be a beautiful evening and we thank you so much for coming.
It's really appreciated.
Ok let's start. There is a simple reason why you're here.
It's for the launch of a company, Solios.
The first idea for this project was 18 months ago.
In 18 months, we realized the proof of concept
and the development of a product way more complicated than it looks,
we'll explain why.
And this brings us to today where there is even a company structure behind.
Basically, Solios
it's more about the mission we aim
than the only product itself
What's the mission of Solios?
We want to disturb the fashion industry
and show that it's possible to dress with style and elegance,
at a good price and easily accessible,
while having a little thought about our planet.
Too often, we see "fast fashion".
We buy clothes that we only wear a few times.
This is what we want to stop
and show that it's possible to have one product
that's really durable, adapts to your style and is not ephemeral.
It's a change of mentality.
It's not because we want to change our style
or change the message that we want to show with our clothing
that we are forced to pollute
and encourage ephemeral and disposable products
and never care about the history behind the product or the company.
So, what's special about this watch?
The style is really simple, really elegant
It's behind the conception of the watch
that hide our innovation.
The solar technology. How is it special?
You'll never have to change your battery.
It may seem insignificant to never change battery,
but each year, if all battery-operated watches
were to function with solar technology,
it would eliminate the need for 300 millions batteries per year.
On top of that, another good reason for solar movement
is that the first reason why people change their watches
is because their batteries die.
So, this is another way to reduce overconsumption.
Each part of the watch was selected
according to our mission :
be eco-friendly, durable
and good quality.
So, the strap. You have seen some colorways in this room
to give you some inspirations.
The leather strap is not real leather
but is also not so-called "vegan leather".
The "vegan leather" is really trending,
but is actually made of plastic,
which is not eco-friendly because it uses petrochemicals.
So, this is why we came up with the first strap made out of silicon,
looking really similar to leather.
Actually, this silicon is made without chemicals wastes
that can pollute air or water.
It's recyclable
and more durable than a real leather strap.
The other strap material is in stainless steal.
We can see that stainless steal usually in smartwatches, like the Apple Watch.
These straps are usually really useful, easily adjustable and look good.
However, most of them are made of cheap stainless steal.
For us, it's important, an eco-friendly smart buy
is not only the material used, but also the way it's produced,
and its lifespan.
For the packaging, we took
a recycled and recyclable material
wrapped by a paper
with basil seeds inside.
So you can seed it
and herbs will grow.
Now, let's speak about the indirect impact.
It's really a change of mentality.
I'll explain with a short story that really touched us.
Early september, we were in Honk Kong for
the biggest watch fair on Earth.
This is where people meet and develops their watch businesses.
We were there to get a particular part
made of recycled material. It's really important for us.
This material is supposed to be recyclable
so we thought it would be easy to find.
We were asking people "do you have any recycled stainless steal?"
They were looking at us without knowing what "recycled" meant.
We had to gestualize what is recycling!
We realized that if they don't know that word,
it's because companies never ask for it.
We think it's really important that everyone know that word.
Someone who recycles, who makes compost, who has eco-friendly habits
It's not written in his face, nobody knows.
But with a watch, a fashion accessory, it's the perfect object
because it will be written on your wrist
that you encourage these values,
that you encourage responsible consumption and
that you show it's possible to develop eco-friendly products without sacrifying
quality, design or price.
So this is the indirect impact we want to have
and why we chose a fashion accessory.
To recognize your support,
only the watches sold during the kickstarter campaign
will be numbered from 1 to 1000.
All the watches afterwards will not have a limited edition number
We don't want to hold you forever,
we want you to have fun.
Here is the video that mark the official launch of our company.
The kickstarter campaign has officialy launched!
You can support us, if you want,
by buying a watch
on the kickstarter.com website.
You have to create an account and select the desired package
It's important to notice that those are pre-orders,
so you don't choose the model today, you choose a package
and we will contact you to know which model you want.
The watch should ship, in theory, at the end of January.
For those who wish to offer a gift for Chritmas,
we got you.
We'll send you a certificate of authenticity
to make sure that you have something to give.
So, this it it, thank you so much for listening.
We are available to answer all you questions or to simply discuss.
