This would be an opportunity for a Singapore software company to actually develop a site similar to kickstarter for Singaporean entrepreneurs.

This would be for a highly technical product for a specialized audience, the goal being to get enough customers to commit to make it worth my while to build this.

The real work is getting word out there to your project. I feel this is as important as the project itself.

I like the idea of your project. It's just that... I like it so much I already took part in and bought the previous nearly identical project.
