OPEN SOURCE

What is OpenSource

We believe that a good idea does not check your graduation certificate, educational pedigree, experience, or your current work profile before it pops into your head. We are committed to following up on a good design idea through our OpenSource program, no matter who thinks of it first.

If you have a good Home Décor design idea, then we will work with you to turn that idea into an actual product and sell it in the market. Whether you are a student, housewife, or anyone who thinks he/she is reasonably creative, there is a way for you to participate in OpenSource.

How can you participate

In 3 simple steps, you can turn your idea into a product, get recognition for your creativity and at the same time share your talent with the world.
Step 1: Choose one of the two Engagement Options listed below in the table
Step 2: Download the relevant form (available soon..)
Step 3: Fill in the form, add the relevant attachments and mail them to us at opensource@ekibeki.com

Our merchandising experts will then check the marketability and relevance of the concept and based on their feedback we may decide to commercialize your product, explicitly giving you credits for the original concept.

There are two alternative modes of participation in OpenSource. Depending on your familiarity with design technical knowledge and the broad terms & conditions for each of the modes, select a mode of engagement and watch your ideas take shape.
