  • [ELECTRICITY CRACKLING]

  • WOMAN: I'm sure some of you know what this means.

  • Aside from being the name of a fabulous,

  • ground-breaking company, HPlus,

  • or rather its symbol,

  • is the abbreviation for a set of ideologies,

  • suite of technologies that makes up transhumanism.

  • A scientific movement, that as you all know,

  • has been getting a lot of attention in recent years,

  • mostly because of the work

  • of some extraordinary individuals.

  • Some of whom our company

  • has had the great pleasure of collaborating with.

  • Our company, HPlus Nano Teoranta,

  • began, as you know, two years ago

  • out of a project partially funded

  • by the Irish government.

  • Its aim: to develop a new generation in medical implants.

  • These include micro pacemakers, insulin monitors,

  • and of course, our crowning achievement, the N54.

  • Some call it an implant,

  • we prefer calling it a computer.

  • But I think everyone agrees

  • that the N54 is decades ahead of its time.

  • Eighty-six nanometers in diameter,

  • the microscopic device is the most discrete of its kind.

  • An implantation process

  • through a simple saline injection

  • is effortless and unobtrusive, to say the least.

  • Once activated, the N54 is able to track

  • 25 key processes of the human body

  • and act as an early warning system

  • for sufferers of over a dozen diseases.

  • But this is only the beginning for HPlus Nano.

  • Our plans for the next five years are,

  • without a doubt, ambitious.

  • It's no secret that in light

  • of our recent success with the N54, our company,

  • alongside scientists in Chile and Switzerland,

  • have begun development of a product

  • that takes human computer interfacing to the next level.

  • A nano-implant that will interface

  • the human nervous system,

  • allowing the body and mind

  • to communicate with other implants

  • over a worldwide network.

  • Which brings us to why we're all here today.

  • Because Mortle has the world's largest

  • and most secure network.

  • That is a fact.

  • And so we believe that there is no greater partnership

  • than our two companies coming together

  • to usher in this stunning new technology.

  • [CROWD APPLAUDS]

  • And so I would like to take any questions that you may have.

  • MAN: Yep, I have a question.

  • Have you thought about posting this on Facebook?

  • I think it would get a lot of likes.

  • [ALL LAUGH]

  • [ALL CHATTERING]

  • Well, that was about 15 years ago, so...

  • [ALL CHATTERING]

  • Hi.

  • I would like to thank you.

  • For the Facebook suggestion. You're welcome.

  • Uh, sure. No.

  • For your critique, it made a lot of sense.

  • Having to build an entirely new operating system

  • to access the cloud.

  • Well, a new kernel. Although I have to imagine

  • that's gonna be some kind of work.

  • You've a lot in common with our company, Kenneth.

  • Oh, yeah? How's that?

  • Well, your story, your fame.

  • You're a software superstar.

  • Single-handedly building an operating system

  • that changed the way people access the Internet.

  • Well, our company is developing a technology

  • that will do the same.

  • Maybe.

  • Definitely.

  • Especially if we have someone like you designing it for us.

  • [CHUCKLES]

  • I was wondering where you were going with all that.

  • Come on, I have to ask.

  • I mean, really, Kenneth, you can't say

  • that you're not intrigued by the challenge, can you?

  • Are you offering me a job?

  • More.

  • I'm offering you a chance to change the world again.

  • You like that sort of thing, don't you?
