The idea

Improvement all starts with a thought, it could come from a pondering moment, a critique of a current situation, or a collaborative discussion.

If ImproveVia is successful and being utilized by people all around the world, from different backgrounds and with diverse skills and knowledge, the possibility for positive impact to be brought to the world is awesome.

Anything in the world can be improved upon - that is the way of things, and everyone in the world has some means to contribute.
