Improving Lives
Business Model
6 years ago, siblings Ian Hao and Ing Le Seng were eating at a hawker centre when they noticed an old lady drinking coffee with a walking cane leaning on the side of the table.
As the table surface was smooth, the cane fell to the ground. When the old lady attempted to retrieve the cane, she lost her balance and fell, injuring her head in the process.
From then on, the siblings decided that the walking cane should not be a hazard, but a benefit to the user.
Thus, the Qanemate was born.
The Qanemate is a patented smart walking aid holder which aims to empower walking stick users, especially elders for smarter and safer mobility with a vision to a fall-free Singapore's aging population.
Today, Qanemate Pte Ltd is a social enterprise which will be donating 100% of its profits to its philanthropic arm Qares Ltd. The Qanemate holder has been granted patent rights in Singapore by the IPOS. It also has patent rights pending in Europe and countries in Asia.
Qanemate Pte Ltd envisions an intellectual property driven philanthro-enterpreneurship journey to empower the last, the lost and the least.
