(ThyBlackMan.com) Young minds always wonder what unique problems they can solve and build the next big company. Entrepreneurship guides, motivational speeches and business gurus from almost all the industries suggest only one thing – solve a problem. It is true that almost 90 percent business ideas you get are already lying on someone’s table and someone, somewhere is working on the same idea. But there are still problems that need to be solved.
Some problems can be solved easily but some of them are too big that even the largest business groups in the world are failing to solve. If you have also found some motivation and from deep inside your mind you are being told to innovate, do something new, solve a problem you are most likely looking for some unique problems.
Here’s a list of 4 unique problems that need to be solved. You can consider them as a new business idea. Rest assured, none of these
problems require millions of people to work for you because if it that’s the case, it would be the worst business idea in the world. Check these out and share your thoughts in comments.
1. Anti-theft solution
Every day, we get to read or hear about events like someone has lost their mobile phone, laptop, vehicle or anything else. In this digital age, we are successful in controlling data theft and we have also accomplished the goal of sending and receiving money safely. But unfortunately, we still don’t have any strong anti-theft solution for our assets.
Some companies tried their best to develop anti-theft solutions for mobile, laptops and other gadgets, but we are still afraid of losing things. We can’t say that after losing our smartphone there are 100 percent chances of getting it back, not even more than 50 percent of chances are there.
If someone can solve this problem, the world will surely become a better place and it’s not something that’s impossible to achieve. All it needs is a killer business idea.
2. Free education for all
Many business models and ideas for free education have been proposed and some of them are getting good results. Many countries in the world are offering free education to some extent. In some places, primary education is free while in some places, authorities, through charitable trusts and taxation are running awareness campaigns.
The sad truth is most of these campaigns have no result tracking measurement in place. As a result, students are still dealing with problems like rising cost of education and burden of education loan.
If someone can build a global solution which is easy to implement, monitor and manage, the idea will not only solve one of the world’s biggest problems – illiteracy, but it will significantly cut down the unemployment rate and poverty.
3. Predicting Natural Events
We all hear news about natural events and most of the times this news occur when problems start knocking our doors. The world community of observers and seismologists take different sides at times.
Today, our technology is unable to predict earthquakes. We can just read the seismic activities and predict how much loss a particular region would be suffering. It is a complex problem but if something in this field can be developed by science lovers, it could be a million-dollar idea.
4. Wireless Power
Smartphones and smart wearables including fitness bands, smartwatches need power and this need will be there until everyone adopts the technology seen in the PowerWatch X. It’s not easy to use such solutions in smartphones. To embrace wireless technology, we have wireless chargers for smartphones and smartwatches.
Wireless charging works great when it comes to charging some of the smart devices but we still need power stored in power banks. It would be amazing if someone could just invent a universal solution that enables wireless power transfer for any device.
Remember, electronic vehicles are coming. This technology will not only reduce the need for wires, people will be able to charge their gadgets without putting them on any device. It will also revolutionize the manufacturing process of computers.
If you find these ideas useful and want to start building something, start exploring more about them. Even if you feel that you can’t just build an entire solution yourself, just focus and think of possibilities because a single idea can lead you to several other inventions.
