Nuwa launches 'Crowdbuilding' project empowering customers to help shape the development of Nuwa Pen
In the first initiative of its kind, Nuwa Pen is now shipping to 6000 Crowdbuilders who will collaborate with developers to create the 'smartest pen in the world' GRONINGEN, Netherlands, Feb. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Nuwa, inventors of the world's most advanced smart pen that digitizes every note you put to paper, is delighted to announce it is shipping the first 6000 units of Nuwa Pen to customers around the world. Uniquely, this first cohort of users will be able to provide direct feedback on the smart pen's performance and help shape its future development in a process Nuwa are calling Crowdbuilding. Watch the video to see how Nuwa Pen is redefining what a pen can do. What is Crowdbuilding? "Everyone has heard of 'Crowdfunding', but Crowdbuilding takes things to the next level," says Nuwa's Founder, Marc Tuinier. "We wanted to place the customer at the heart of product development, so we coined the phrase Crowdbuilding to show just how much influence our first customers will have over the future of Nuwa Pen." The first 6000 Nuwa Pen users are located all around the world. They come from many different backgrounds and professions, but all are prolific notetakers searching for an easy way to store their written notes digitally. These customers will be integral in the development of Nuwa Pen technology as it continues to break new ground. The Nuwa Crowdbuilding project will gather user data and feedback in real-time via a customized feedback form and support channels as the first Nuwa customers document their journey with the pen. Nuwa's Customer Care and Engineering teams will be on hand to ensure these new ideas can contribute to the iteration and refinement of the technology. Crowdbuilders will also benefit from a lifetime subscription to Nuwa+, the accompanying app, which will allow them to integrate their notes with popular apps that are available now, and those that emerge in the future. There's still time to join Nuwa Pen Crowdbuilding community - simply order your pen today! The ultimate tool for notetakers Nuwa Pen perfectly connects our modern, digital world with the freedom and spontaneity of feeling pen on paper. It is designed for people who spend their lives scribbling notes: from meeting minutes and to-do lists to story ideas and memory joggers. Nuwa Pen is equipped with three tiny cameras that capture every stroke made on any paper. It then stores the notes in a digital library in the accompanying Nuwa+ app, allowing users to keep all their ideas together in one place conveniently and securely. "Creating breakthrough technology like this is complex and difficult," Marc says. "Over the course of this process we have learned that everyone writes differently and in different conditions, so we thought that the best people to help refine the Nuwa Pen are those who are most eager to get their hands on it. Crowdbuilding has given us the opportunity to involve our customers every step of the way. Together we are building the smartest pen in the world."

Lunar New Year 2025: Slithering into the Year of the Snake on January 29
Listen to article The world is gearing up to celebrate the Lunar New Year, the most significant event on the Chinese calendar. Falling on Wednesday, January 29, this year marks the beginning of the Year of the Snake, kicking off a 15-day celebration filled with cultural traditions, family reunions, and symbolic rituals. Why the year of the Snake? The Chinese zodiac follows a 12-year cycle, each represented by an animal. Those born in 2025 will be "Snakes," joining the ranks of 12 zodiac signs linked to the positions of the Tai Sui, deities associated with Jupiter. For many, the new year begins with temple visits for blessings, guided by predictions based on the stars. Myths and traditions: The story of Nian The Lunar New Year's vibrant displays of red banners, firecrackers, and fireworks trace back to the myth of Nian, a beast said to terrorize villages every New Year's Eve. According to legend, an old man drove Nian away with fiery red decorations and loud firecrackers, giving rise to traditions that persist today. Preparations for the festivities The days leading up to the new year involve rigorous cleaning to rid homes of bad luck from the past year. On January 27, the 28th day of the lunar month, families conduct a thorough cleanup. Superstitions abound: sweeping or taking out trash during the first five days of the new year is believed to wash away good fortune, and cutting hair on New Year's Day is discouraged as it symbolizes losing prosperity. Lunar New Year's Eve feasts The celebration begins with a grand family reunion dinner on January 28. Menus often include dishes symbolizing good fortune, such as fish (representing surplus), puddings (signifying advancement), and dumplings resembling gold ingots. Traditions vary by region, with northern Chinese favoring dumplings and southern Chinese opting for steamed rice. In Malaysia and Singapore, the 'prosperity toss,' or yusheng, is a must, with diners tossing a mix of vegetables and raw fish for good luck. Celebrating the days of the New Year The first two days involve family visits, gift exchanges, and sharing festive treats. The seventh day, February 4, marks the "people's birthday," commemorating the creation of humanity by the Chinese mother goddess, Nuwa. Communities celebrate with special "birthday" foods, such as seven-vegetable dishes in Cantonese traditions. The lantern festival: A grand finale Lunar New Year concludes with the Lantern Festival on February 12. This day celebrates the first full moon of the year, symbolizing the end of winter and the arrival of spring. Lanterns are lit to drive out darkness and usher in hope. Historically, it was a day for matchmaking, earning it the nickname "Chinese Valentine's Day." Today, cities worldwide host vibrant lantern displays and fairs to mark the festival's finale. From cleaning rituals to grand feasts and lantern-lit celebrations, the Year of the Snake promises to continue Lunar New Year's rich legacy, uniting communities around the globe in joy and tradition.
