This Starbucks SWOT analysis reveals how the largest coffee chain in the world uses its competitive advantages to continue growing so successfully all over the world.
It identifies all the key strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats that affect the company the most.
Starbucks has experienced a significant growth over the last few years and this trend should continue in the near future.
The company still has lots of growth potential in new and current markets. The combination of all Starbucks’ strengths will allow the company to successfully compete with rivals and grow fast.
Starbucks should further strengthen its digital capabilities, operating efficiency and maintain the current quality of ‘Starbucks experience’. All of these strengths will help the company in the future.

Opportunities are well-known for Starbucks and the company already pursues some of them. Starbucks should really put efforts in becoming more of a dining place than just a coffee shop. That would open new opportunities and growth for the company.
Threats do not pose immediate danger for Starbucks. The company uses various contracts and other agreements to shield against the volatile prices of coffee beans. Other threats can be easily eliminated in the future.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Today, marketing sector is the fully changes than traditional marketing
according to the modern concept of marketing, the consumer is given the highest
priority therefore the fundamental function of the marketing is the satisfy
consumer identifying their needs wants demand and accordingly providing goods
and services.
"Instant noodles industry" is a major category of food industry in Nepal.
There are more then 27 companies in Nepal but only ten companies are fighting it
out for a share instant noodle is a common food of Nepalese society. It is taken as
a Khaja but it does not serve the purpose of a wholesome meal although sometimes
it is used as a meal. In my study it can be seen that the consumption of instant
noodles is highly ncreasing in Geetanagar. Most people respondent have consumed
noodles at least time either as a Tiffin or meal. It's future is bright.
Mayos noodle is very popular and successful noodle in market it has coverd
highest percent of market share position. The good quality and easily availability
are the main factor their market share.
In conclusion accordance with sample survey it can be said that the future

promotional activities along with reasonable pricing to uplift their market share.
4.2 Recommendation
1) The consumption of noodles in urban area of Geetanagar is very
popular. All types of consumer consume noodles at least one time.
Student and service holder consumers prefer to consumer more and
more because of easy availability and easily prepare able. So, instant
noodles companies should make their targets to these groups and
focus marketing strategy to them.
2) The quality of Hits and YumYum brand noodles seen 10 be inferior.
So, that it is better to improve the quality of these noodles.
3) The availability of noodles is one of the most important influencing
factors to make the decision of buying noodles for consumers so
companies should give more emphasis on it.
4) A very few consumers are found to be brand loyalty and is not so
strong. As a result no company seems succeeded to make consumer
loyal to their brand so it is advised that the companies should make
appropriate programme for product positioning to their own brand.
5) Most of the consumer is found to know about noodles and their
brands through advertising at the pioneering stage. So, manufactures
are suggested to advertise their product through popular media like
radio and T.V. rather than in magazine.
