Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Putting the SPARK into Virtual Training.pptxCynthia Clay
This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.
Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

53. What works (in my experience).
•
A product or service requirement with a strong market proposal.
•
A healthy R&D budget OR (the ability/time to learn) good proposal writing skills
on all sides.
•
An initial dialogue in which mutually-compatible strengths are identified, and a
worthwhile common objective is established (Space Ideas Hub, G-STEP and others
facilitate this process).
•
Technically-interesting projects that rely on skills that are a strength of the
University in question (and might produce new understanding).
•
Projects that fund and challenge creative and technically-minded people in the
laboratory.

68. Interests to invest in Space Exploration
Investments in Space Exploration on a larger scale will increase the potential for creating successful spin-offs
Potential future applications are wide in scope
Create collaborative development called « Common R&D »
Non-space innovation could be stimulated and/or accelerated through co-development of key technology and
systems across space and non-space sectors
COMMON R&D
Planned and structured route
Preselection of common R&D themes requires significant upfront commitment from public institutions and non-space
stakeholders
Predetermines the non-space application areas
Limited scope of future applications
Space sectors
(i.e: Space Exploration)
Non-space
sectors

Spin-offs
Involve separate funding and expertise
Both are different but not alternatives:
Space R&D is conducted with no preconceptions as to the non-space application areas of future spin-off activities.
Innovation
Unplanned and serendipitous consequence of space Exploration activities
Common R&D
SPIN-OFFS
69. Benefits of spin-offs
Vaccine development
Cancer treatment delivery
Preventing bone losses
Water purification
Flooding observation, tsunami, earth catastrophes, …
Sea traffic
Inspiring youth

70. Benefits of “Common R&D”
Fundings from both sectors increase R&D budgets
Provides the 2 communities access to different sets of complementary skills, experience, and infrastructures (testing and prototyping facilities)
Achieves more and better innovative solutions faster than if the 2 communities worked in isolation
Concrete examples (areas of mutual interest, the most fruitful opportunities for « common R&D » in the near-term) :

71. Barriers to “Common R&D”
!
Information failures: low level of awareness of the activities, plans and needs of space exploration among non-space sectors
Preconceptions: both space and non-space sectors have different industrial cultures
Different approaches in:
the design and engineering
the management of risk
the balance of product price and performance
Significant barriers to interaction and collaboration
Different :
language
terminologies
Arrangements failures: differences in the fundamental R&D objectives, innovation timescales, inequal balance in space/ nonspace R&D funding contributions
SOLUTIONS:
Increase communication levels and ensure very close relationships
Make sure that contractual arrangements are suitable and acceptable to all parties

78. Summary
… Space creates wealth outside space
Space and non-space communities must acknowledge that synergies exist in the technical challenges they face
« Common R&D » and spin-offs are not alternatives
Success in establishing and implementing R&D projects is uncertain due to substantial barriers
Need for public support
Provides finance to stimulate
collaborative R&D
Provides appropriate instruments to facilitate
networking, relationship building and collaboration
If Europe is to play an important role in international Space Exploration, it needs to focus on and extend its expertise in these 4
areas:
• renewable energy
• healthcare
Areas of particular European strengths in Space Exploration
• access to quality water resources
• access to oil and gas resources
Investments in space pay off generously in non-space sectors
