Anecdotally I know 3 adults in 3 different states who tried weed for the first time during the pandemic and all of them developed new-onset panic attacks and disassociative symptoms within less than 6 months of regular use and had to stop. Not sure if it was better than alcohol…
Yeah, I played around with it before the pandemic started and found it meh. When the pandemic was in full swing, I tried it again as an alternative to alcohol and found that it made things far worse. I think it just hits me differently than people that like the stuff. I have zero desire to ever use it again because all it makes me do is feel paranoid and nervous.
My name is Naren Keshav. I’ve built a product & built the legal structure for the company. It is a Canadian Incorporated startup. The product is iOS application with potential for scale & ride the next s-curve. On the face value, it is an augmented reality product.
## About me
I’m passionate in what I do. With Master’s in Computer Video Games, I’ve worked in domains that would use three-dimensional geometry such AR, VR, Intel RealSense etc.
Moving forward, the company would need a two-pronged approach. The company requires a technical & business-oriented team.
### Business oriented
Person who is passionate with a new product introduction & figure GTM strategy with the understanding of technical roadmap of the product.
### Technical oriented
The product uses live sensors, camera & GPS to provide the value. Currently, it is built on top of Unity game engine. Person who is passionate with machine learning on mobile is preferred.
### Investment
So far, I have deferred investment to have a solid product, product messaging & a team. Once the initial team is in place, with the team - we will have to build a roadmap & subsequently a pitch deck. I have built channel(s) to have us introduced to VC’s.
### Finally
I am also looking for people who might be interested in working on this product & in-turn with the company. This is a startup & I find responsible to set a direction. It does not mean that I am right. The team always wins. I would love to find a mentor/advisor with B2C experience.
