Roadmap

Year 1 - Clément Ader

Company Formation, Team Assembly & ICO

Company Formation, Team Assembly: This foundational step is pivotal across all solutions, especially for the Dedicated Blockchain on Avalanche and the Decentralized Urban Air Mobility Platforms. Establishing a legal and operational structure enables the strategic planning and execution of blockchain innovations. Assembling a team with diverse expertise ensures that the project's vision—spanning from technical blockchain challenges to aviation-specific solutions—is well understood and executed.

ICO Funding, Brand Strategy: Securing initial funding and developing a strong brand strategy are critical for the successful launch and sustainability of the Innovative Ticketing and Loyalty Solutions and the Green Aviation Launchpad & Ecosystem Support. These resources allow for the aggressive development and marketing needed to introduce these novel solutions to the market, laying the financial and perceptual groundwork for future expansions.

Strategic Partnership, Infrastructure Planning: Forming strategic partnerships and planning the necessary technical infrastructure are essential steps for all solutions, particularly for the Aviation Blockchain Asset Tracking System and the Blockchain-Enabled Credentials and E-Learning Marketplace. Collaborating with aviation entities and technology providers ensures that Kepler Digitals' solutions are built on a robust, secure, and scalable platform like Avalanche, and are compliant with industry regulations and standards.

Prototype Development, Community Engagement: The development of prototypes, such as for the Innovative Ticketing and Loyalty Solutions, and active engagement with the community are crucial for refining and validating Kepler Digitals' offerings. Feedback from these initial developments informs improvements and adjustments, ensuring the solutions meet the needs and expectations of users and stakeholders. This iterative process fosters innovation that is aligned with market demands and sustainability goals.
