Ed net presentation Trust is a Must
This document discusses investing in teacher agency to improve teacher retention and recruitment. It notes that sources of teacher dissatisfaction include working conditions, workload, work-life balance, leadership issues, autonomy, respect, and appreciation. The document cites research finding that a 10% increase in trust has the same effect on life satisfaction as a 30% increase in pay. It argues that investing in trust makes financial sense for school districts and can increase teacher retention rates and recruitment advantages. Small interventions that increase teacher agency and autonomy can significantly impact teacher job satisfaction.
Sociocracy for Creating Better Products
Imagine you can suggest just any kind of feature you think will be important for the product you're working on, or even any kind of product to work on- and you will work on that product only with people who are interested to work on that feature / product as well?
And now imagine furthermore, that for every decision you need to make in your team, there will be full buy-in for that decision from every team member - no matter if some colleagues (or even you) were at first very opinionated about (not) using that framework, that library, etc. Well, Sociocracy will help you to make that happen. In this session we will explore these concepts, so you can use them back at work.
RI-Basics-For-Investors
This document provides an overview of responsible investment (RI) in Canada. It defines RI as integrating environmental, social and governance factors into investment decisions.

Governance (Corporate And Technology)
IT governance is becoming increasingly important as businesses rely more on IT and make large investments in IT. While IT provides opportunities, it also involves significant costs and risks. IT governance ensures boards and management properly oversee IT strategy, investments, performance and risks. Surveys show many businesses still do not treat IT as a strategic partner and struggle to measure IT's value. Proper IT governance with board oversight can help businesses better align IT with their objectives and realize more value from their IT investments and capabilities.
Creating Organizational Change Using Retrospectives and other Tools
The necessity of rapid change is the topic number one nowadays. We need to create and promote organizational change in order to stay in business, to respond to market pressures, and to be innovative. During this workshop I want to provide answers –using both theory and practice– to the following questions: • What is fundamental to every change? • What needs to be considered for implementing change successfully? • How can retrospectives and other tools help creating change? In order to answer these questions we will make use from the insights from different change models and will use Retrospectives for Organizational Change and other tools and methods.
Building Deeper Advisory Relationships with Data
An exploration into how asset managers are addressing today’s marketplace challenges and leveraging new tools and technologies to create more fruitful relationships with financial advisors.
The asset management industry is confronted with several challenges to growth. Increased transparency via technology, competitive fee pressure, product commoditization, regulatory change and demographic shifts are contributing to increased margin pressure. One possible solve is to deepen relationships by turning existing client data into an asset. While leveraging analytics to inform client segmentation, client journey mapping and brand enhancement is not a novel exercise in the business world, it has perhaps not been fully adopted and implemented within intermediary distributed asset management.

The Future of FinTech
This document summarizes a report on how financial technology (FinTech) can help address the lack of financing available to small and medium enterprises (SMEs). It finds that while SMEs are major drivers of economic growth, they face a global "funding gap" of over $2 trillion. Traditional banks find lending to SMEs costly and risky. However, FinTech solutions tailored for SME needs, such as marketplace lending, merchant financing, and supply chain financing, show promise in filling this gap efficiently. The report examines the opportunities and risks of FinTech for SME financing, and notes that several factors like data availability, regulation, investment, and financial education will influence FinTech's potential to transform SME finance
Uplift proposal 500

Green Finance.pptx
Green finance refers to financial products and services that promote environmentally sustainable investments and stimulate low-carbon technologies. It includes loans, debt mechanisms, and investments used to encourage green projects or minimize climate impacts. Government policies can significantly influence green finance markets by shaping them around sustainability agendas. Investors see opportunities in national green recovery efforts but also risks of a market bubble without sufficient investment opportunities. Various bond types like green bonds, social bonds, and sustainability-linked bonds are emerging to direct funding to green and social projects. Blockchain and cryptocurrencies also show potential to enable more sustainable financing models if technical and environmental issues can be addressed. Significant investment is still needed to achieve countries' renewables and decarbonization goals.

2020 Cleantech Open Northeast Impact Report (updated)
In 2020 Cleantech Open Northeast (CTONE) had the largest cohort ever with 47 startups matched with close to 175 mentors. In mid March we pivoted smoothly to 100% virtual programming. Every single startup received assistance with their participation fees from sponsors in Maine, New Jersey, Rhode Island and Canada, as well as from the Wells Fargo IN2 program at NREL. Each of the four regional winners -- Andluca Technologies, Polycarbin, RenewCO2 and T-Omega Wind -- earned $10,000 in cash. Polycarbin and CLIP were recognized as two of the six National Finalists.
We had a special focus on impact investing with a workshop at the Academy, educational webinars, and the chance for each of the startups to have a one-on-one consultation to measure their impact related to their GHG emissions reduction. We also analyzed and documented the impact of Cleantech Open Northeast. Slide three shows 68% of our startups since 2005 are still in business, employing over 3300 people. The cohorts are becoming increasingly diverse, and we aim to continue that trend.
Trish Fleming was recognized as the Cleantech Open National Volunteer of the Year, and she received the Northeast Lifetime Service Award. Roland Scott was recognized as both National and Northeast Mentor of the Year. Thank you to our long-time Regional Premier Sponsors MassCEC and NYSERDA for your continued support. With the help of many, we are combating the climate crisis, and growing the cleantech economy. With the prospective Biden-Harris administration and your support we hope to do even more!

Five Strategic Priorities: Generation and Transmission Cooperatives
Generation and transmission cooperatives face complex challenges and must address five strategic priorities: (1) managing generation assets as asset profiles change, (2) ensuring grid security and reliability as NERC regulations evolve, (3) gaining access to capital markets as financing needs rise, (4) improving stakeholder management amid conflicting expectations, and (5) fostering economic development through long-term commitment and measurable objectives. The document outlines each priority in detail and provides contact information for the authors to learn more.
Chartered Secretaries Risk & Compliance Module 8 - Project Governance - May 2010
This document discusses project governance and outlines some key concepts and best practices. It notes that while projects account for 20-30% of organizational activities, they often fail to deliver benefits. Effective project governance is needed to ensure projects are aligned with strategy and deliver intended outcomes. Key aspects of best practice governance include oversight and review of projects, clear goals and requirements, adequate resources, good communication and managing risks. Cultural barriers can exist if boards and managers are not engaged in governance. Case studies are presented to demonstrate governance issues that can arise.

The Ultimate Startup Guide Part 1
A massive transformation is underway in the startup-funding ecosystem; the shift towards democratizing fundraising has meant that startups at every stage of the development cycle have greater access to capital than ever before. This new generation of fundraising has seen unprecedented growth of 167% in 2014, with an estimated global funding volume of $16.2billion (USD) rapidly proving to be a force capable of bridging the liquidity gap, and
reducing industry fragmentation for early stage startups.
The economic downturn of 2007 was a defining period in the fundraising ecosystem, and ultimately the marker responsible for changing the course of fundraising. Consequently, we have observed VC’s opting to de-risk their portfolios to later stage revenue generating firms, angels and super-angels are stepping in to fill the gaps where they are participating in much larger early-stage rounds, and finally, crowdfunding has seen explosive growth as an innovative new funding vehicle for very early stage startups and SMEs alike.

Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.

The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology. As a result, a field pilot study has commenced with results expected in nine-twelve months. With the results of the hydraulic study, field pilot studies and an updated risk assessment leading site monitoring optimization cost lifecycle savings upwards of $15MM towards an alternatively evolved best available technology remediation closure strategy.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
