Idea Napkin No. 2

I am a college student who thinks safety is very important. I am hardworking and want to solve the issue of the lack of blue emergency lights on campus. My idea was to come up with a blue emergency light app where you can download it on your phone. You would install the app on to your smart phone device and it would work exactly like the blue emergency light button. This app would be linked to the closest police station, including the university police right when you click the emergency light on your phone. It would send the police a tracker of your current location for when you are in the dangerous situation. This app offers an additional safety feature to anyone who has it especially students who are walking through campus. I think everyone would like this idea, including students, faculty and parents. I believe safety is very important especially with things that occur on college campuses when you are found in a situation alone. You never know the situation that will occur or what can happen to you, and that’s why this app is so beneficial because if you are found in that situation this app will help! The benefits for this service include, help if needed, and allows you to walk around alone feeling much safer in case something happens.

            Based on the feedback I received, I decided to keep the app and the ideas the same. The two students, who responded to this loved the idea and explained how having the app would make students feel more comfortable. They explained how many students are walking alone on campus especially at night so this app is beneficial and it does help one of the current issues on campus. I did however explain my value proposition a little bit more in depth as well as explaining the benefits of the service for college students.
