Leveraging Information and Communication Technology (ICT) for the Base of the...Ericsson France
These documents present the conclusions of the study “Leveraging ICT for the BoP” sponsored by AFD-Proparco, Ericsson, ICCO, France Telecom-Orange, and TNO and conducted by Hystra and Ashoka from October 2010 to June 2011. This study aimed to learn from “what works” in terms of full projects (as opposed to technologies) combining both an economically viable model and socio-economic impacts on their end-users, in the field of ICT for development (ICT4D). This work is thus based on the screening of existing projects led by various types of actors (social entrepreneurs, NGOs, private companies…), in 4 sectors of “development” where ICT has already shown it could play a key role: healthcare, education, agriculture, and financial services. 15 of the most ground breaking market-based business models, with a proven scale and results on the ground showing that ICT can be a lever improving the living standards of the BoP, are analysed in depth in the report to support the main conclusions.
We hope that this report, like ICT itself, will not be an end but part of the means to create more effective approaches to foster development.

The Serbian Entrepreneurial Community is an example of the power of a grass-roots initiative to build trust and, by building a complex network of horizontal and vertical relations, encourage collaboration and break administrative boundaries in a push to implement adult education.
The partnership in Serbia that resulted in an Entrepreneurial Community consists of four main actors:
• Radojicic farm (lead)
• Mionica Municipality
• Kreativa (non-governmental organisation)
• Mionica High School
Serbia struggles with high youth unemployment, significant disparities between regional labour markets, low workforce mobility and an exodus of qualified workforce. The participation of women in the labour market is significantly below that of men. The Serbian Entrepreneurial Community is located in the town and municipality of Mionica, which have populations of 1,500 and 14,000 respectively. The economy of Mionica is tourism-led, targeting mainly weekend and holiday season visitors from the capital Belgrade. Mionica has high unemployment and women carry the bulk of the burden as many marry young, never complete their secondary education and thus struggle to enter the labour market.

Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren.

Grote partijen zijn al een tijdje onderweg met retail media. Ondertussen worden in dit domein ook de kansen zichtbaar voor andere spelers in de markt.
