CAP: ECARGO: New Partners

ESCARGO Partners and Supporters

Samsonite is providing Smallbean with major corporate funding as we design and implement the ESCARGO installation at the Launch Pad in Kwala, Tanzania. Samsonite has also been intimately involved with the entire design process, with special thanks to Jason Gifford, Samsonite's US-based Design Director. 

Design Museum Boston (DMB) is New England’s first museum dedicated solely to design. Designing A Difference is DMB’s program to educate the public on the transformative power of design by creating innovative solutions to social, economic, and environmental problems. Special thanks to Sam Aquilino, Derek Cascio, and Anna Engstrom from DMB, who have been with us all the way on this amazing project!

 

MSI is providing state-of-the-art energy-efficient laptops for use at the ESCARGO facility in Tanzania and working with Smallbean to develop software for the computers as well. Smallbean is using MSI X-SLim X340 and X370 laptops in the ESCARGO facility. MSI has previously worked with Smallbean to provide laptop computers as part of our MobileCAP installations throughout Africa and we are enormously excited to be expanding our relationship with MSI to ESCARGO.
