38minutes

Sirs; I`m your average Shmoe tickling the keys on laptop with an idea inciting me to post this blog!! I found this forum whilst trawling numerous sites and blogs hoping to uncover a network within geographical access with strength and depth in app i-Phone development, I think this may be it? I`m hoping I`m not wasting your precious time reading this? I`m currently working for a Global hardware company shifting tin mainly ISS. I have little knowledge in i-Phone software, developing sophisticated computer software, or development and bear only a genuine curiosity into your expertise on taking an interesting and absurdly useful app idea from seed to harvest. I`m hoping (desperate) to gather information in key areas including set up costs, proof of concept, intellectual property and route to market. So? Where do I start? Where can this lead?

Much appreciated

Greig

Hi Greig,

Where are you based?

We may be able to help with all four.

Setup costs and basic route to market are pretty straight forward with iPhone Apps.

We offer various services, one being a feasibility study which investigates your idea and could involve creating a proof of concept development.

We have carried out a number of iPhone development projects to-date and would be happy to help, be it with advice and guidance or getting our hands dirty on the dev side.

We are currently geographically tied to Scotland so if you're in Alba no problem. If not get in touch anyway and we'll see what if there is anything we can do.

Regards

Gordon

Hi Gordon, thanks for reply really appreciate you taking the time out to respond, I`m central based 20 mins from City Centre (Glasgow) As mentioned, I`m a consumer, user of i-phone & - i-touch 3G technology and have a genuine interest in taking an idea/concept further. I`m not a corporate and dont have a huge budget just an idea which may be a great opportunity to fly? Advice and guidance would be great at this stage, would it be possible to meet and discuss more?

Regards

Greig

No problem Greig,

We can certainly give you advice and guidance and the great thing for you is it's free!

The feasibility study's are match funded but match funding can be in-kind (i.e. your time and effort).

How's the week of 2nd of November for you? Our office is in the Glasgow Science Centre so should be pretty handy for you.

If you need to get in touch my email address is gordonl@ictthatworks.org

Regards

Gordon
