Global Business Intelligence

This document discusses the importance of long-term brand building versus short-term sales activation strategies in marketing. It argues that short-term strategies may produce quick sales uplifts but do not lead to sustainable long-term growth. Effective long-term strategies focus on reducing price sensitivity through branding, which produces slower but longer-lasting sales growth and increased profit margins over time. However, the trend in marketing is toward more short-termism as organizations prioritize quick gains over long-term effectiveness. The document advocates for an approach that views marketing investments as long-term investments, focuses on desired outcomes rather than just outputs, and considers how purchasing behaviors impact the value received.

Deepak Sarangi

This document discusses nanorobotics and their potential medical applications. Nanorobots are microscopic devices measured on the nanometer scale that could work at the atomic, molecular, and cellular levels. They may be programmed to identify and quarantine harmful cells, deliver targeted drug treatments, monitor blood glucose levels, break up blood clots and kidney stones, treat cancer and arteriosclerosis. While nanorobots show promise for precision medicine and non-invasive procedures, challenges remain around their environmental and biological impacts if not properly designed.
