Globalization and e commerce
Globalization and the rise of e-commerce have led to greater "time-space compression" in business. While e-commerce allows small businesses to reach global audiences at low cost, it also risks exacerbating the "digital divide" between those with and without internet access. Issues around intellectual property rights and the collection of tariffs and taxes across international e-commerce transactions remain challenges, particularly for developing countries. Addressing gaps in infrastructure access, enforcing copyright laws, and developing international policies on taxation will help mitigate risks from increasing digital trade.
Globalization and E-commerce
Globalization and e-commerce have provided new opportunities and challenges for businesses. E-commerce allows companies to access new global markets, leverage talent pools worldwide, and participate in global production networks. It also introduces more competition. While e-commerce benefits developed countries with strong digital infrastructure, developing nations may be marginalized without access to the necessary technologies. The growth of technologies like RFID and sensors is extending the internet beyond computers into physical objects and infrastructure, connecting the real world.
Globalization and Ecommerce
This slide is about globalization and its effects to e-commerce. It also presents the disadvantages of globalization in some aspects.

E commerce and_poverty_pdfversion
E-commerce has the potential to alleviate poverty in developing countries in several ways:
1) It reduces transaction costs and barriers to entry by allowing sellers in poor countries to reach buyers globally without intermediaries, improving market efficiency.
2) It gives producers a global reach beyond local and national markets, bringing some economic gains through increased sales.
3) By improving access to information, e-commerce reduces information costs for actors in developing countries and allows them to better participate in the global economy.
4) It creates new business opportunities for entrepreneurs through virtual enterprises and digital products that can reach markets without a local presence.
However, the document notes that other supporting factors are also needed for e-commerce

The DotCom Bubble occurred in California in the late 1990s as many internet startups, called "DotComs", were founded and stock prices increased dramatically. However, the bubble burst in 2001 which led to many investors losing money and over 500,000 people in the US IT industry becoming unemployed as many DotCom companies failed. While some internet companies like Google and Amazon survived, the bursting of the DotCom bubble triggered an economic recession.

The document discusses the DotCom Bubble that occurred mainly in the United States from 1999-2000. It was an economic period characterized by extreme enthusiasm and investment in Internet-related companies. Many Internet startups went public and saw their stock prices rapidly increase. However, in early 2000 the stock prices of these companies started to decline as many dot-com companies collapsed due to an inability to be profitable. The bubble burst had global economic impacts, both positive and negative, for countries like Ireland and India.
Entrpreneurship- Transforming the global economy
Entrepreneurs are transforming the global economy in three key ways: 1) They enhance competition and dynamism by continuously changing the shape of the world economy; 2) They help assimilate new technologies that fuel economic growth, as evidenced by the rise of companies like Microsoft and Google; 3) Entrepreneurship provides opportunities that support freedom and job creation around the world.
Global Networks
Global networks come in many forms, including business, communication, transport, production, and political networks. The document discusses the growth of internet usage globally and some key factors related to development and connectivity. It also describes global hubs as highly connected places that other locations seek to connect to, often hosting large transnational corporations. Creating connections for poorer countries requires infrastructure investment, economic reforms, stable societies, human capital development, and attracting foreign direct investment. One example discussed is China's success from economic growth and reforms. The document also summarizes the One Laptop Per Child initiative and some criticisms of the project.
Social Impacts of Computing Science
This document discusses several topics related to censorship, privacy, and online communities. It describes how governments censor the internet by blocking certain websites, and how some view this as a violation of free speech rights. It also explains how user privacy is threatened by companies monitoring browsing histories to target advertisements, and by personal details being freely shared on social media. Finally, it discusses how encryption is used to securely transmit online payments, and how the internet has helped people from different cultures and countries connect as global citizens through online communities.

The dotcom bubble occurred from 1999-2000 as many internet-related startups received large investments and saw their stock prices rise rapidly. However, the bubble burst in December 2000 as many of these companies failed or went bankrupt, resulting in over half a million layoffs in the tech industry by 2002 and pushing the US economy into recession. While the bubble impacted many countries, Ireland suffered the most severe effects due to its reliance on tech investments during this period. Within the US, California saw the heaviest investment activity and job losses as the center of the dotcom boom and bust.

More than 25% of South African bank customers use cell phones for banking showing progressive mobile adoption.
Digital globalization:new era of global flows
Voluminous and ever growing flows of data and information is now generating more economic value than the global goods trade.
Conventional wisdom says that globalization has stalled.
Though the global goods trade has flattened and cross-border capital flows have declined sharply since 2008
Yet globalization is not into reverse mode.
Rather, it is entering a new phase defined by soaring flows of data and information.
Digital flows were practically nonexistent just 15 years ago
Now exert a larger impact on GDP growth than the centuries-old trade in goods(McKinsey Global Institute (MGI) report, Digital globalization: The new era of global flows.)
This shift makes it possible for companies to reach international markets with less capital-intensive business models.
New risks and policy challenges associated must be addressed.
Knowledge & Attention in the iTunes World
The document discusses the attention economy and how it promotes iTunes. It explains that the attention economy creates a marketplace where consumers are happy seeing relevant information and retailers are happy because happy consumers spend money. It then provides examples of how iTunes gains attention through information sharing, media advertising, and engaging users to get noticed and followed in the attention economy. The document also discusses how the knowledge economy helps iTunes promote itself through information, experiences, advertising, videos, and music.
Jamaica a logistics centred economy thriving in the Fourth Industrial Revolut...
How can a small island developing state like Jamaica thrive in the Fourth Industrial Revolution?
The answer is simply: having and implementing a vision that will allow it to secure its future in this age of disruption — the Global Logistics Hub Initiative. Jamaica’s Global Logistics Hub Initiative is Jamaica’s response for building a resilient and sustainable nation in the Fourth Industrial Revolution.
Artificial Intelligence (AI), robots, automation, and the Internet of Things (IoT) — the Fourth industrial Revolution — are all tech terms that have moved into the mainstream of our everyday conversations. Unfortunately the talk is usually one of doom and gloom, punctuated by predictions such as: Robots could displace 800 million jobs. With such grim predictions, who would not pay attention? So what can a small island developing state like Jamaica do to get ready for this future?
It’s important to understand that, as William Gibson stated: “The future is already here — it’s just not very evenly distributed.” The Fourth industrial Revolution is already here — it’s just not evenly distributed. And this represents an opportunity for Jamaica.
The Fourth Industrial Revolution can be boiled down to three things:
1. Connectivity
2. Flows
3. Management of connectivity and flows.
In a word: logistics.
Competitiveness, in our globalized world is increasingly based on one’s ability to understand, connect and manoeuvre within and between the various networks that make the world work. The Logistics Performance Index (LPI) 2014 put it succinctly: “Improving logistics performance is at the core of the economic growth and competitiveness agenda.”
Travel industry
Digital technologies are changing how people consume information and travel companies must adapt. The document outlines 6 digital realities and recommendations for how hotels can take advantage of current trends: 1) People are overloaded with information and have short attention spans. 2) Social media is dominating online engagement. 3) Smartphones are growing while total phone sales are flat. Hotels should establish a strong social media presence, use customer data to target deals, partner with travel sites, and implement gamification and early adoption of new technologies.

The potential of eCommerce is no more a matter of debate. From the world of hype and fantasy it has moved into that of digital reality. Electronic commerce looms large on the horizons of tomorrow, and it promises to transform trade and industry in ways not yet imagined or comprehended. Its impact of course is expected to go far beyond commerce to affect the lives of millions of Internet users, consumers, workers and producers.

Globalization and the adoption of e-commerce have created a new global economy and affected firms' performance. Globalization reduces costs and creates new markets through technologies like e-commerce. E-commerce lowers transaction costs and allows firms to reach global customers. It has changed business-to-business and business-to-customer models by speeding up transactions and reducing costs. The relationship between globalization and e-commerce is complex but they reinforce each other, with globalization fostering e-commerce adoption and e-commerce further enabling globalization.

ICTs and Enterprises in Developing Countries: Hype or Opportunity?
The role of ICTs in the development of small enterprises has been much discussed. This document brings together material from a wide variety of sources, including development agencies, governments and the private sector. In particular, it aims to present current realities, rather than to emphasize what might one day be possible. It is clear that ICTs are transforming many aspects of life for enterprises; many of the impacts will, however, take many years to fully materialize
Effects of globalization to e commerce
The document discusses the relationships between globalization, technology, and e-commerce. It states that globalization and technological changes have created a new global economy powered by information and knowledge. The use of information and communication technologies has revolutionized organizational relationships and how firms conduct business. E-commerce involves the electronic buying and selling of goods and services over the Internet and impacts global competition. Globalization and e-commerce are transforming national economic structures into knowledge economies. Highly global firms tend to employ e-commerce more to expand markets, lower costs, and improve coordination with suppliers. However, local firms can still compete by leveraging local resources and targeting domestic markets.

WEF: Technology Pioneers 2010
This document discusses how disruptive technology pioneers can reshape established industries and companies. It provides the example of Mint.com, a 2009 World Economic Forum Technology Pioneer, which disrupted Intuit's personal finance software business with a simpler, free, mobile-accessible solution. Intuit ultimately embraced the disruption by acquiring Mint.com and replacing its own personal finance division. The document argues that the 2010 class of Technology Pioneers, working in areas like social media, cloud computing, clean energy, and green building materials, have the potential to similarly disrupt major industries.
The Startup manifesto from Coadec
The document is a manifesto outlining policy recommendations to support digital startups in the UK. It discusses how access to finance is still a major issue for startups despite costs of launching decreasing. It recommends that the government commit to keeping Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) and Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) tax reliefs, bring back tax reliefs for Corporate Venture Capital, and remove the cap on Entrepreneurs' Relief and lower the equity threshold to better incentivize entrepreneurship. Improving access to financing for startups is a key focus of the policy proposals.
Technology Is Eden Essay
This document discusses the importance of intellectual property in today's knowledge economy. Intellectual property typically includes copyrights, patents, and trademarks. In recent years, many firms have sought to patent software technologies used in smartphones. The use of patents to protect software technologies has increased exponentially since 2007 with the introduction of the iPhone.

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
