These are slides from my talk at Founder Institute's opening session in Finland. They don't work well w/o speech. Quick and dirty. Perhaps the most interesting part is the quick-and-dirty opportunity evaluation framework ... or not. Enjoy!
Entrepreneurship 1: Introduction, Identifying Ides & Business OpportunitiesBernard Leong
The first of my course touches on the definition on entrepreneurship, the different forms of entrepreneurship, how countries measure growth of entrepreneurship activity, and the first toolkit: how to identify ideas and business opportunities. We also provide some interesting case studies for example, Aravind Eye Centre for social entrepreneurship. This is a series based on a course "MPS 812: Entrepreneurship" I have been teaching in School of Physical & Mathematical Sciences, Nanyang Technological University.
Opportunity Identification Talk @ Eureka Tech Academy Event (2015-11-19)John Mueller
These are the slides that I used for the opportunity identification (discovery, recognition, creation) talk at the Eureka Tech Academy event on November 19, 2015 at the Prince Sumaya University of Technology (PSUT). The talk was translated into Arabic for the audience, as I spoke in English (except to say hello, and ask one question :-).
The Eureka Tech Academy event was part of the Global Entrepreneurship Week activities happening in Jordan.
Note: I didn't go through all the slides during the talk, and just hit several main points, due to a time limit. So having the slides posted here allows people to see the entire slides for the talk.

A systematic approach to identifying the best startup opportunities. Rather than relying upon luck or inspiration to make an important decision about what you will spend the next several years building, it is important to define a more systematic approach of discovering opportunity (read our philosophy).

Big Brands Meet Big Data – The Newest Innovator’s DilemmaTeradata Aster
Marc Parrish, Vice President, Retention & Loyalty Marketing, Barnes & Noble, presents at the 2012 Big Analytics Roadshow.
Big Data is moving too fast for Big Brands. They don't have the ability to technically pivot, to move quickly enough to take advantage of the astounding amount of customer information that's available, and make it part of their everyday practices. This poses a great risk to the world’s great retailers. Well-managed companies often fail because the very same management practices that made them industry leaders also make it difficult to assimilate the disruptive technologies that in the end allow others to steal their market.
With Big Data, the gap between merely sustaining your operations, and adopting disruptive technologies, is the difference between progress, or perish.

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.

Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.
