This is my bicycle: a “recumbent” Attracts lot’s of comments: “Nice bike!” “Awesome!” “Mommy, is that man paralysed?”
“The Showcase Recumbent Team” A racing team of recumbent bikes Amateur riders Turn heads, bring out smiles Promote: Out-‐of-‐the-‐box thinking InnovaTon Healthy lifestyle Be daring A bit of fun!

“There is no excuse for people starving.” “There is more than enough to go around, if only people share.”
SKA and Big Data -> Big Opportunity Big Data is already happening It’s not all rocket science! Plenty of societal and business issues to address.
