Quotes

“The idea of manufacturing robots came from information I read in the report of the World Health Organization (WHO) on road safety for children; also because my brother died following a traffic accident coming from school when we were still in elementary school. I was very shocked.”

“Today we have reduced these accidents by 60 per cent, so for us, it is really something very important, that we have come to understand that road safety must be practised in relation to the regulations and in relation to the signals.”

“We are looking to find solutions.”

“If we look at the evolution of the world today, the revolution of artificial intelligence, we are pushing more young girls to follow suit more at the university level in fields like science, technology, engineering and mathematics, because we have found that the future of mankind rests on this kind of option.”

“We are in a very dynamic world. There are jobs that will disappear. For example, the bank will no longer need a lot of cashiers because it will be the robots that will replace them. It is up to us to know what jobs we can teach our children and above all how to be more entrepreneurial to create wealth from know-how, from technology, in order to help others.”

“There are many robots in the world, but a robot handling road safety and traffic control, that's truly 'Made in Congo'.”
