AWayOfLove Cultural Creative Project submission demonstrates:
1. Passion to improve the life experience of others
MOSHAV AHITUV, Israel (Reuters) - A bicycle made almost entirely of cardboard has the potential to change transportation habits from the world's most congested cities to the poorest reaches of Africa, its Israeli inventor says.

Example:
"Making a cardboard box is easy and it can be very strong and durable, but to make a bicycle was extremely difficult and I had to find the right way to fold the cardboard in several different directions. It took a year and a half, with lots of testing and failure until I got it right," he said.

4. AWAYOFLOVE IS AFFORDABLE:
Gafni owns several top-of-the-range bicycles
which he said are worth thousands of dollars
each, but when his own creation reaches
mass production, it should cost no more than
about $20 to buy. The cost of materials used
are estimated at $9 per unit. By Ori Lewis and Lianne Gross | Reuters

can go GLOBAL
"GAME CHANGER"
Nimrod Elmish, Gafni's business partner, said cardboard and other recycled materials could bring a major change in current production norms because grants and rebates would only be given for local production and there would be no financial benefits by making bicycles in cheap labor markets.

6. SUPPORTS GLOBAL BALANCE AND PROSPERITY:
“It changes ... the way products are
manufactured and shipped, it causes factories
to be built everywhere instead of moving
production to cheaper labor markets,
everything that we have known in the
production world can change," he said. By Ori Lewis and Lianne Gross | Reuters

9. TRANSFERRABLE ACROSS SECTORS:
"…. We are copying a business model from the high-tech world
where software is distributed free because it includes embedded
advertising," Elmish explained. By Ori Lewis and Lianne Gross | Reuters
