The Mission: Industry Bicycle
Inspired by Steve Jobs' bicycle metaphor, PTIC's mission is to assemble all components (stakeholders) into one ecosystem that transforms industry efficiency from struggling to thriving.
Just as a bicycle transforms human efficiency from 47th to 1st rank, an ecosystem of connected stakeholders transforms industry capability exponentially.
Why PTIC Had to Be Non-Profit
Trust Without Pressure
Section 8 removes future monetization burden. Free forever, legally.
Mission Over Returns
PTIC reinvests all revenue. No profit extraction to shareholders.
Pay-It-Forward Culture
Receive freely. Give freely. Communities grow through reciprocity.
Serve Based on Need
Not paying capacity. Profit-free means bias-free.
