The document outlines plans for starting a new robotics company. It discusses 5 points for advertising the business in the community, including making rescue and assistance robots for disasters and disabilities. It also discusses setting up a human resources division to hire employees, with 5 sample interview questions. Responsibilities for running the company would be divided between a president and sales manager. After-sales customer service plans include advice over the phone, product repairs either on-site or by returning it, and a one-week trial period. Market research methods include online searches of competitors, analyzing their brochures, and studying academic market data sources.
The document discusses the approach of StartTech Ventures, a Greek company, for helping technology startups go global. It emphasizes the importance of having an entrepreneurial ecosystem that supports knowledge sharing and synergies. Key aspects of the StartTech approach include planning for scalability, prototyping in Greece, focusing on key customers and support, using incentives for partners, and establishing "antenna offices" in major target markets to provide local market intelligence and support. StartTech Ventures has seen success with this model, with portfolio companies now generating over 95% of their revenue from international markets like the US, Canada, and Australia.

1569 W6th Ave, Technical/Design Comment, S. BohusWestEnd Prepare
This document summarizes technical comments on a rezoning application for a development proposal at 1569 West 6th Avenue in Vancouver. There are concerns that the proposed building is too tall and out of scale for the area. It could impact established view corridors and cast shadows on a nearby park in the shoulder seasons. The previous design for the site by renowned architects Arthur Erickson and Milkovich was praised as it was low-rise and integrated well with the neighborhood while meeting density targets. The summary concludes that the proposed height is too high and would impact shadows, views of neighbors, and the pedestrian experience.
Has Pharma Marketing Forgotten the Patient? Anup Soans
The document discusses the rise of Sun Pharma and its founder Dilip Shanghvi's vision and leadership which has led the company to become a global pharma giant. It describes how early on Shanghvi envisioned introducing generic versions of drugs that were exclusively produced by multinational companies and bringing innovative cardiac drugs to the Indian market. Shanghvi's talent for identifying the right people, delegating responsibilities, making quick decisions, and turning around distressed acquisitions have been key to Sun Pharma's success in becoming the largest Indian pharmaceutical company.

V1 learning with digital media bringing 21st century skills to the nativesHoda Mostafa
Today’s learners are often referred to as “digital natives” because of the ease with which they interact with digital media and tools. Yet most of them are not digitally “literate” and do not have the necessary critical thinking, visual and information literacy skills necessary to prepare them for today’s media rich environment. This presentation will focus on innovative uses of digital media in different courses at AUC. Special attention will be given to the multimedia essay, in which image and video annotations are incorporated into a “critical essay” providing the necessary evidence to support an argument. We use “Mediathread”, an innovative open source platform developed by Columbia University which allows the “exploration, analysis, and organization of web-based multimedia” while offering the collaborative features of social media. Other collaborative tools that foster media literacy skills will be discussed in the context of a multi-disciplinary team taught course on “Creative Thinking”. These include blogs, “Tumblr” and “Edcanvas”, an innovative sharing platform. The institutional support needed for faculty to develop, implement and assess such learning activities will also be addressed.

Space travel is dangerous and expensive, but it doesn't have to be. Find out about an alternative way to reach orbit that is rapidly becoming feasible and may eventually change how we view our world.
This document contains 26 questions and answers related to Windows Communication Foundation (WCF). It covers topics such as the differences between WCF and ASMX web services, WCF endpoints, hosting options, operation overloading, message exchange patterns, data contract serialization, security modes, instance modes, and addressing in WCF. The questions provide explanations of core WCF concepts and configuration options at an intermediate technical level.

This document summarizes a workshop on using image and video annotations in teaching and learning. It provides objectives of introducing teaching with annotated media, showcasing examples using MediaThread and EdCanvas platforms, and brainstorming ways to use annotations and EdCanvas in courses. Examples are given of learning activities using annotated images and video, such as analyzing images in art history and composing digital essays. Pedagogical benefits include active engagement and developing skills in utilizing and citing multimedia sources. The workshop models hands-on experimentation with the tools and discussion of integrating them in classes.
The document describes plans to develop a cardiovascular surgery database and conduct data analysis. It discusses objectives like risk assessment, outcome prediction, and statistical analysis. It outlines the content that would be included in the database, such as demographics, medical history, procedures, and outcomes. Challenges are noted around integrating different data sources and conducting advanced exploratory analysis. The goal is to use the database for research, quality improvement, and clinical decision making.
