First of all we would like to be grateful to Allah and my parents and pay my deepest respect to Mr. Saud Ahmed, lecturer, Department of Finance, Jagannath University , Dhaka due to her generous and friendly guidance. The faculty of Business Studies helps us to get the opportunity to understand some minute issues as well as those issues which we have failed to understand. We also would like to thanks those people for giving us enormous help that can’t be mentioned in this short extent.

01. Executive summary

Anik Magic Battery (AMB) which is the new product of Anik Telecom is the hypothetical start up. It is a device by which mobile phone to be recharged simply by talking into each other. The technology turns sound into electricity allowing a mobile to be powered up while a conversation is in progress and the greater the volume the greater the charge. The technology could also be used to power up personal music players, raising the possibility of charging an Ipod by singing alone to your favorite songs. The sound that always exists in our everyday life and environment has been overlooked as a service which motivates us to realize power generation by turning sound energy for speech, music, or noise into electrical power. A sound absorbing pad on top vibrates when sound waves hit it, causing the tiny zinc oxide wire to compress and release. This generates electrical current that can then be used to charge a battery. It will be helpful for the tribal and costal areas people where there is no electricity. It will create the chance to grow up mobile users. It could also help soldiers to carry on batteries. However it plans to enter the domestic market with its procurement base, production process and quality of products and some rated enough financial resources.
