so now it’s my turn to share my story
first I need to introduce my grandpa yes
this is my grandpa this photo was taken
fifty years ago
and at that time people did not have
smartphones so taking photo was special
occasion as you can see I was always
amazed with lifestyle of my grandparents
because they are living near my hometown
BL avoid a small town in the north of
Montenegro and there they always had
garden animals they were growing
vegetables fruits in one moment my
grandpa became even a beekeeper now he’s
a beekeeper for years so he had
opportunity to spend even more time in
nature with his bees during summer he
has to move his bees in mountains so he
moves his bees to durometer a national
park of Montenegro one really amazing
place you have to visit it so that was
great opportunity also for me to visit
his bees on a weekly basis and spend
time in mountains I learned so many
things about bees and in one certain
point I decided to study Electrical
Engineering so I had to move the capital
city of Montenegro to podcast so I
started learning the exams traveling to
conferences and as soon as I finished my
primary studies I started working as a
young researcher at the same faculty in
center of excellence of University of
Montenegro so luckily I have opportunity
to travel all around Europe visit
different events and also I got
opportunity to see how work day of busy
people look like lots of meetings online
meetings again meetings so many hours in
airplanes airports buses cars and I was
a little bit afraid that actually
I’m losing my connection with the nature
I’m too busy I don’t have time for
walking for weekends in mountains and
also my friends are also too busy
working studying and they don’t have
time for their connection with nature in
one moment I starts reading science
papers and once while I was reading a
science paper about new things about
theater solutions about data science I
was amazed I was fascinating so many
amazing things are going around so many
new technologies so many results of data
science I was happy to be alive today to
be witnessed so many great things and in
that moment I remember my grandpa’s
piece every year they are the same place
really calm a peaceful place there has
nothing changed for years everything the
same and there is no any technology
nothing no technology even today so I
start thinking maybe I can use my
knowledge and maybe I can do something
use some kind of technology to help my
grandpa so I start talking with my
colleague Allium at that time we were
students of master studies and now he’s
my husband and we start thinking how to
help my grandpa that’s why we would
start talking with my grandpa to be
honest my grandpa does not have a
smartphone he did not have it and he
does not have it now but he believed he
believed us the technology can help him
and we knew that he have lots of lots of
challenges with beekeeping so we started
with some sensors communication models
solar panel batteries everything
together and start thinking how can we
develop some monitoring tool for my
grandpa and it was really interesting
journey during that journey I started
learning even more about bees and I
became even more grateful to this
incredible through living creatures and
we all should be really grateful peace
this tiny B works whole life and during
entire life they collect less than a
teaspoon of honey during entire life in
order to collect one kilo of honey they
have to visit more than a 4 million
flowers 4 million flowers and that’s the
way the magic happens
these are pollinating one third of our
food did you know that we are strongly
dependent on bees without bees we will
not have food and I have really bad news
for you bees are dying there is a huge
trend in decreasing bees continent world
bees need our support to survive mine
yours we all have to help them to
survive so during this journey I found a
huge inspiration and motivation to do
this project to start developing to make
it even better and not just to help my
grandpa but Arabic keepers also thanks
to so many amazing people we make so
many steps forward and now if you go to
durometer and visit my grandpa’s bees
they will be a piece of technology a
stand for beehive a really simple
hardware with sensors in it temperature
humidity sound wait so we are measuring
lots of different parameters trying to
track bees activity to track what’s
going on with the weather with
beekeepers activity and help beekeepers
in monitoring so now they save time
there’s some energy and they are doing
and as you can see here these small
beasts are working whole days for us and
we should do something for demos as I
mentioned we made so many steps forward
so this project become even bigger lots
of companies NGOs universities
beekeepers help us so now we have huge
network of beekeepers around Europe
which are testing our device giving us
feedback and helping us to improve it
and our idea our vision and mission our
main goal is to have whole picture to
collect data collect beekeepers feedback
and use data science to find answers
there and help piece be able to predict
illnesses be able to make beekeeping
even smarter and this photo this is
piece from Vienna this photo would taken
on the roof of one building in Vienna
during this process I learned so many
things about amazing people in big
cities in meanwhile I moved to Vienna
and I learned lots about urban
beekeeping yes there are so many
beekeepers who are doing beekeeping in
tongues isn’t that awesome
there have been balconies and roofs also
there are so many people who are growing
vegetables they are doing urban
gardening also on the roofs and
balconies in parks isn’t that amazing I
was fascinated also and during this
journey I learned that actually even if
I am living in bigger city even if I’m
really busy
I still can have my connection with
nature I can have a small garden my
Falcon I can have bees and roofs I can
live in a green and sustainable
buildings so today I did not try to tell
you that there are two sides mountains
millage is on one side no technology and
other side smart cities wherever no I’m
talking about one paths we should
combine these two things we should learn
from nature
nature is the greatest creator all
answers are there
but sometimes we should slow down a
little bit go there and find answers
there are so many concepts which could
be copied and used and yes today we are
able to use technology and knowledge and
make smart and sustainable cities in
harmony with the nature I’m sure we can
do it together
thank you [Applause]
