Jim Carroll, Author, Columnist, Futurist, Innovation and Trends Expert
Jim Carroll is one of the world's leading international futurists, trends and innovation experts, with a client list that ranges from Northrop Grumman to Johnson & Johnson, the Swiss Innovation Forum to the National Australia Bank; the Walt Disney Organization to NASA. His focus is on helping to transform growth oriented organizations into high-velocity innovation heroes.
He has a unique professional background as a Fellow Chartered Accountant, author, and frequent speaker at corporate and association events. Jim loves to golf, but isn't very good at it, which caused him some amazement when he was invited to open the 94th Annual General Meeting of the PGA -- the Professional Golf Association of America -- to challenge 500 golf pros as to how to think about innovation and future trends.
Jim was the first speaker the PGA has ever engaged to speak at their AGM, and has high hopes that he has helped to shape the future direction of the world's largest sport. He's also hoping to inspire you in a similar way.
Public policy’s impact on the medtech sectorUBMCanon
This document discusses public policy impacts on the medical technology (medtech) sector. It describes the objectives and advocacy efforts of MASSMEDIC, the largest medtech organization in the US, focusing on issues like the medical device excise tax, FDA user fees, payment reform, and EU regulation. Key upcoming events that could impact the medtech industry are also outlined, such as US tax reform and midterm elections, potential changes to FDA review times, and how healthcare payment reforms may shape the future economy and role of new medical technologies.
El documento describe cómo las tecnologías de la información y la comunicación (TIC) se han convertido en herramientas esenciales en la educación en el contexto de la globalización. Si bien existen vacíos en la implementación de las TIC en las escuelas debido a limitaciones de infraestructura y recursos, las TIC brindan una base para lograr avances educativos al facilitar el acceso a información y herramientas de aprendizaje. El documento también argumenta que las TIC ya no deben considerarse "nuevas" y que su uso

The Lavante Estimator provides more accurate estimates than industry averages by using vendor-specific results from Lavante's previous audits. It analyzes a client's vendor master file and estimates potential recoveries leveraging Lavante's database of 2 million vendors. The Estimator helps set expectations for an audit's results. It generates estimates within hours and previews the analysis and steps Lavante would take in an audit. The Estimator leverages Lavante's vendor experience to provide a comprehensive analysis of duplicate vendors, recoveries over time, and vendor file updates.

The bioplastics industry in the US has grown steadily, with revenue increasing from $84.2 million in 2007 to an estimated $110.2 million by 2017. The industry is concentrated in certain states like Indiana, North Carolina, and Texas which make up over 10% of revenue. By 2016, plastic bottles were projected to account for over 40% of the bioplastics market. Key industries that manufacture and use bioplastics include corn and soybean farming, chemical production, and plastic bottle and film manufacturing.
El documento presenta un taller sobre moneda y banca que incluye cuatro preguntas: la primera solicita describir la evolución del dinero y sus funciones a lo largo del tiempo; la segunda pide explicar los tres motivos de demanda de dinero en una sociedad; la tercera cuestiona identificar y explicar la relación entre la creación primaria y secundaria de dinero con los indicadores monetarios; y la cuarta pregunta busca explicar por qué el control monetario tiene impactos fiscales y cambiarios.
Breakout magnetics: How far can we take the next generation of components?UBMCanon
- The presentation discusses opportunities to improve the power density of magnetic components by reducing losses and improving packaging efficiency over the next 10-20 years.
- Today, power density can be doubled using existing core materials and designs. Over the next 10 years, average device volume is expected to halve due to improved cores and higher switching frequencies.
- By around 20 years, device sizes could shrink to 20-30% of current sizes with further core and winding innovations needed above 1.5 MHz to fully realize this potential reduction in size.
This short document contains two sentences that appear to be testing phrases. It does not convey any clear ideas or information beyond demonstrating that two short test sentences were written.
The document discusses best practices for fostering innovation while maintaining quality and compliance. It recommends defining the business objective and value of projects upfront. It also suggests implementing a quality management system (QMS) that includes elements like document control, roles and responsibilities, change control, inspections, and training. The QMS should be defined, activities planned, and responsibility partitioned and documented in a quality plan. It also warns to avoid concurrent technology development and product design.
