INTRODUCTION
In order to stay successful in the face of maturing products, companies need a continuous stream of new ideas successfully developed into new products. The way to obtain new products is to have a structured and carefully executed new product development process (NPD).
But companies face a problem: Although they must develop new products, the odds weigh heavily against success. Among thousands of products entering the process at the top, only a handful eventually reach the market. Therefore, it is of crucial importance to understand consumers, markets, and competitors in order to develop new products that deliver superior value to customers.
In other words, there is no way around a systematic, customer-driven new product development process for finding and growing new products. We will go into the eight major steps in the new product development process.
The Business Modeling Starter Kit enables entrepreneurial teams to explore the range of ideas and viable business models for a new or existing business. Results provide the basis for business model implementation that proceeds through iterative exploration, elaboration, evaluation, experimentation and evolution of assumptions. It was iteratively refined through dozens of workshops with startups and corporate venture projects.
The Business Innovation Kit modifies and extends the basic version of the Business Modeling Starter Kit. Both enable entrepreneurial teams to explore the range of ideas and viable business models for a new or existing business. Where the Starter Kit ends the Business Innovation Kit goes into depth: Exploring revenue models or the customer journey in depth, or competitive advantages that may be achieved through normative orientations such as sustainability. Results provide the basis for business model implementation that proceeds through iterative exploration, elaboration, evaluation, experimentation and evolution of assumptions.
This presentation describes the Business Modeling Starter Kit, an out-of-the-box workshop that helps entrepreneurs exploring viable business models for a new or existing business. It was created by Prof. Dr. Henning Breuer and his colleagues at the Telekom Innovation Laboratories in Berlin and revised, extended and translated by UXBerlin.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

In Odoo, the multi-company feature allows you to manage multiple companies within a single Odoo database instance. Each company can have its own configurations while still sharing common resources such as products, customers, and suppliers.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Unit 8 - Information and Communication Technology (Paper I).pdfThiyagu K
This slides describes the basic concepts of ICT, basics of Email, Emerging Technology and Digital Initiatives in Education. This presentations aligns with the UGC Paper I syllabus.
2. The Idea
• All good ideas share at least one of three goals:
– They make life for the customer easier. (efficiency)
– They make life for the customer better. (effectiveness)
– They allow the customer to do new things. (innovation)
• Example: “If you go to five travel sites, you will
be presented with five different offers. Traveling
to each site is time-consuming and confusing.
We are a discount travel website. We have
written software that searches all the other travel
sites and collates their price quotas into one
report.”
4. Idea Type
• Type A – New Market
• Type B – New Technology
• Type C – New Benefit
• Type D – Replication
5. Idea Category Description
Type A
Providing customers with a product or service that does not
exist in their market. Product or service exists in other markets
but not currently available in your market.
Type B
New technology centered on providing customers with a new
product that does not exist in any market.
Type C
Provides customers with an improved product. Basically a
“me-too” product strategy that provides a “new benefit” not
offered by the competition.
Type D Replication of existing products. “Me-too” w/no differentiation.
