Overview

Objectives:

D&A Experiences Oy is a Finnish SME, founded as an Innovation Design Agency with focus on consumer electronics, electric boats and bikes. Our vision is to create beauty and value by implementing the most advanced technologies into form and function that make the world a better place. We specialise in creating novel user experiences based on both advanced design and tested technology.

We have created G-Boat™, the World’s smartest and most iconic electric boat for the metropolitan water front market. G-Boat™ contains many innovations in the waterborne transport industry, including hydrodynamics design, environment friendly lightweight materials, battery technology, navigation technology, ownership models and maintenance requirements.

By commercialising G-Boat™, our vision is to become the market leader in smart electric boats, in an industry that is worth over €20 Billion. We foresee that our innovative solution will generate over €10 Million to our annual revenue by 2023, increase our annual profits by 25% and grow direct and indirect employment. Phase 1 of this innovative project is to carry out an elaborate Feasibility Study and Business Plan to get G-Boat™ from TRL6 to TRL9 and commercialise it.
