“I care more about not cutting myself
than a close shave”
“Affordability is everthing”
39. Understanding the user + their
context changed the product
◉ Only 1 blade
◉ Sold for 15 rupees (30c)
Gillette became 50% of the market
in six months
42. What’s the problem?
Politicians rely on short public memory and
a lack of transparency + citizen engagement
to escape accountability
43. Solution
An open platform that encourages citizen
participation and makes it easy for anyone
to see if their leaders are following through
on promises
44. Who needs it the most?
Activists
NGO’s
Journalists
45. Who needs it the most?
Activists
NGO’s

46. Create an ideal user persona
to guide decisions
◉ Not just demographics
◉ What do they do that makes
them a good ideal user?
◉ How are they solving the
problem now?
These are assumptions. Edit as you
