Marketing has changed and the number of channels and touch points deployed to reach customers is evolving and expanding at a fast pace. This paper showcases how with Digital Asset Management at the heart of the content marketing process,
organizations can keep up with the demand for “real-time” blockbuster content.
Marketers need digital asset creation to be collaborative so that assets can be reused and repurposed efficiently across multiple channels. That collaboration is only possible with a process that is powered by the marketers themselves. This new, agile process must be focused on the creation, publishing, re-use, and measurement of rich media, as opposed to finding, limiting, governing, and archiving assets. Discover how agile teams, assets, and processes can create collaborative content, better brands, and faster content marketing.
Greetings Content Marketers,
Welcome to this year's report on the content marketing practices of business-to-business technology marketers in North America.
In this report we highlight key areas of difference between the most effective technology marketers and their less-effective peers. We also show some differences between those who have a documented content strategy and those who do not.
Technology marketers use a good mix of tactics and continue to invest in content marketing, with 58% planning to increase spend over the next 12 months. We look forward to seeing how this continued investment pays off over the next year.

Thought Leadership Disrupted: New Rules for the Content AgeHeather Taylor
Four rules that help brands and publishers think about their audience and how to reach them. Based on research from The Economist: http://www.missingthemark.ads.economist.com/ & http://tldisrupted.com/
The senior care buyer has undergone massive change over the past few years. With infinite access to media, and infinite connectivity we must understand the new foundations for relating to the modern buyer.
Silicon Valley is recognized globally as the birthplace of some of today’s most popular and iconic technologies. Many of its startups have a particular dynamic to thank for their success: the formation of clusters, or groups of companies and organizations that congregate in a region around a particular field.
Brett Gilbert, an associate professor in Rutgers Business School’s department of management and global business (and @ProfGilbert on Twitter), studies the formation and influence of these clusters. When a prominent university or a powerhouse company draws other, smaller organizations to its region, a tech cluster forms, supporting entrepreneurs as they develop their own breakthroughs. This model has been observed for decades in the United States. Now, emerging markets such as South Africa are seeing nascent cluster formation. And the success of these nations in the global economy may depend, at least in part, on their ability to make clusters work.
Gilbert, who has a Ph.D. in entrepreneurship from Indiana University and served a gubernatorial appointment as an advisory committee member for the Texas Emerging Technology Fund from 2008 to 2010, recently spoke with strategy+business about her research in the U.S. and abroad.
An increased number of consumers are using the mobile web and native apps on their smartphones to research products and make purchases, however many mobile marketing efforts miss key opportunities to maximize their app ROI.
By focusing on a consumer-friendly app strategies, companies can increase their ROI, gain insight into consumers’ mobile behavior, and enhance their consumer appeal.

In the early days, people used to arrive at a career in BPO as if by accident. It’s now a more clearly defined profession in itself. Recent analysis by HfS Research (commissioned in partnership with Capgemini BPO), which surveyed BPO staff about their perceptions of BPO as a profession had generally positive findings, with the majority of experienced professionals seeing BPO as an enabler of innovation and business change. Yet there is work to be done particularly among newer entrants to the industry, with only one in eight seeing it as a long-term career option. That’s the challenge facing BPO leaders now if we are to continue the reputational growth of recent years.

A lot of industries have changed drastically since the arrival of the internet. Think of the music business. The Internet comes with threats and great opportunities, if you set the proper objectives and strategy.
In this presentation, we present insights in how sales managers and new bizz people can use tools like Facebook and LinkedIN to their benefit. Especially LinkedIN requires a completely different approach, since authority is only gained by participating fully. And having your sales manager be very active on a platform like LinkedIN makes them easier to find for your competitors. But not having them participate, is a threat as well...
At AdNerds - part of Proximity BBDO - we give advice on how to behave, how to set the proper objectives and how to define your strategy.
As a society, we're in the age of transformation, yet we're applying old metaphors and running our transformations like software projects. Let's start to consider transformational change as a series of social movements.

Changing Landscape of Information TechnologyAbhinav Mishra
We are starting to witness signs of recovery from the recession
over the past few months. As the world looks at growth
opportunities, as with all cataclysmic events, there is a
realization that the past twenty four months have irrevocably
changed business operations.
Changes that started with the spurt in oil prices have been
aggravated by the recession. Businesses globally have
witnessed discretionary spends disappear, projects put on
indefinite hold and order-to-cash cycles stretched. In an effort to
improve their financial situation, many businesses have closely
reviewed operations and industry best practices. Our research
shows that companies are looking towards technology and
outsourcing to reduce costs, increase operating efficiencies and
improve customer satisfaction.

Decades of economic growth and development along with better governance and nutrition-specific programmes had lifted hundreds of millions of people in Asia out of poverty, as well as starvation and malnutrition. However, due to the uneven development, while a large segment of Asian's population had changed their eating habits to over-nutrition diets and worrying about lifestyle diseases like diabetes, cancer and heart diseases, there are still some countries and regions suffering from lack of nutrition. For example, childhood malnutrition and stunting is still prevalent in South Asia, one Indian survey found that 21% of children suffer wasting, and a further 7.5% of children suffer it severely.

Digital platforms and services stimulate economic growth and development. Countries are looking to the “internet economy” to provide new market opportunities and help achieve the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) such as promoting economic growth and sustainable industralisation, a process often relying on an increase in online access rates and smartphone penetration.

Internet connectivity has proven to be one of the most profound enablers of social change and economic growth of our time. Beginning with fixed narrowband internet connections and moving through successive generations of increasingly pervasive and powerful networks, connectivity has come to underpin our working and personal lives, empowering businesses to operate more efficiently and with wider reach. In turn, connectivity has sparked and fuelled countless new industries, products and services that are coming to define our modern age. Connectivity has proven to be a vital ingredient for business success.
This report examines the burden of lung cancer in Latin America and how well countries in the region are addressing the challenge.

In the cyber world, many are attacked but not all are victims. Some organisations emerge stronger. The most cyber-resilient organisations can respond to an incident, fix the vulnerabilities and apply the lessons to strategies for the future. A key element of their resilience is governance, a task that falls to the board of directors.
To learn more about the challenges of governing a cyber-resilient organisation, The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) conducted a global survey, sponsored by Willis Towers Watson, of 452 large-company board members, C-suite executives and directors with responsibility for cyber-resilience.
Among the findings:
-In the past year, a third of the companies surveyed experienced a serious cyber-incident — one that disrupted operations, impaired financials and damaged reputations — and most placed high odds on another one in the next 12 months.
-Many companies lack confidence in their ability to source talent and develop a cyber-savvy workforce.
-Executives cite the size of the financial and reputational risk as the most important reason for board oversight.
Artificial intelligence (AI) will profoundly affect the ways in which businesses and governments engage with consumers and citizens alike. From advances in genetic diagnostics to industrial automation, these widespread changes will have significant economic, social and civic implications. As such, Intelligent Economies explores the transformative potential of AI on markets and societies across the developed and developing worlds.
This report, developed by The Economist Intelligence Unit and sponsored by Microsoft, draws on a survey of more than 400 senior executives working in various industries, including financial services, healthcare and life sciences, manufacturing,
retail and the public sector. Survey respondents operate in eight markets: France, Germany, Mexico, Poland, South Africa, Thailand, the UK and the US.
As businesses generate and manage vast amounts of data, companies have more opportunities to gather data, incorporate insights into business strategy and continuously expand access to data across the organisation. Doing so effectively—leveraging data for strategic objectives—is often easier said
than done, however. This report, Transforming data into action: the business outlook for data governance, explores the business contributions of data governance at organisations globally and across industries, the challenges faced in creating useful data governance policies and the opportunities to improve such programmes.
It wasn’t long ago that a work meeting meant gathering around a table to discuss an agenda. These days you may be using Slack, Hangouts or other digital collaboration platforms that blend messaging with video and allow real-time editing of
documents. Even with these tools, communication at work can still break down, potentially endangering careers, creating stressful work environments and slowing growth.
A survey from The Economist Intelligence Unit and sponsored by Lucidchart reveals some of the perceived causes and effects of these communication breakdowns. The survey, conducted from November 2017 to January 2018, included 403 senior executives, managers and junior staff at US companies divided equally and from companies with annual revenue of less than
US$10m, between US$10m and US$1bn and more than US$1bn. The survey research provides insights about what employees see as the biggest barriers to workplace communication, the causes of the barriers and their impact on work life. Complete survey results are included at the end of
this report.
Successful young entrepreneurial innovators have achieved something akin to rockstar status. They grace magazine covers and keynote global conferences, inspiring burgeoning
start-ups and Fortune 50 companies alike.
Collectively, young entrepreneurs are innovative by nature and their thinking is an important source of growth and job creation across the world. Today, with digital tools in hand, leaders are better positioned to expand their businesses across borders, seize niche opportunities and shape the global economic future.
Yet, most of today’s young entrepreneurs want more than status and a global corporate footprint. Their ideas of success arise from powerful social, political and economic convictions.
To find out what really makes young innovators tick, The Economist Intelligence Unit, sponsored by FedEx, surveyed more than 500 of these young entrepreneurs around the globe about their motivations, ideals and priorities. Our survey respondents were between 25 and 50 years of age and all founders, owners or partners of firms with fewer than 500 employees. They are living in North America, Europe, Middle
East, India and Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America. We surveyed them on matters of globalization, technology and social values.
We then compared their views with a similar survey of the general public in the same regions. Side by side, these surveys enabled us to differentiate the outlooks of today’s young and innovative entrepreneurs.
Our surveys identified four key mindsets that guide young entrepreneurs: leading with passion; thinking globally; embracing social responsibility; and banking on connectivity. This report explores the similarities and divergences of today’s young entrepreneurs and the general public. It seeks insights into the elements of the business environment that matter most to entrepreneurs, as well as their views on a variety of issues including free trade and social responsibility.
Education systems across the world are grappling with the challenge of preparing their students for the rapid changes they will experience during their lifetimes. To this end, schools have a critical role in equipping students with the requisite skills and
competencies that will be in demand, particularly as digital technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI) increasingly transform businesses and influence economies. In this report, The Economist Intelligence Unit (EIU) discusses the results of a study that explores how to best prepare primary and
secondary school (referred to in this report as “K-12”) students for the 21st century workplace (“the modern workplace”), where
a mix of hard and soft skills are crucial for success. The research, sponsored by Google for Education, draws on a survey of 1,200 educators in 16 countries.1 It looks at the
strategies most effective in developing 21st century skills and how technology can support such efforts.
Gone are the days when marketing chiefs focused solely on the classic 4Ps: Product, Price, Promotions and Place - they now must take an integrated approach to drive company goals.
Corporate and shareholder sentiment towards MA has rebounded since the dark days of 2008. Low borrowing costs have coaxed many new buyers, including acquisitive Chinese conglomerates, into the market. The prices of prized assets have risen accordingly. It remains a sellers market in technology-driven deals, particularly in the consumer-goods, financial services, and media and telecommunications sectors.
Corporate treasury is now a top target for cyber-criminals. Treasury’s trove of personal and corporate data, its authority to make payments and move large amounts of cash quickly, and its often complicated structure make it an appealing choice for discerning fraudsters.

In today’s low-yield and regulated environment, many Asia-Pacific investors are more actively monitoring their portfolios with a willingness to increase turnover and shift asset allocations for higher returns.
Asia-Pacific institutional investors are struggling to balance long-term liabilities with the need to secure yield in a world where it is increasingly scarce. They are also in the world’s fastest-growing region that has no shortage of volatility. How are they achieving returns while managing risks?
How are institutional investors in North America adapting to increasingly complex risks? Are these risks driving investors to make portfolio changes based on short-term goals or are they making tactical moves to stay focused on long-term objectives?
Political risks and the search for yield are pushing some North American institutional investors toward more tactical decisions. Investors are focused on reallocating to equities and using alternative investments to mitigate risks.
How are EMEA investors responding to changing macroeconomic and regulatory environments, stakeholder objectives and pressures, and market conditions? Based on a survey of 200 institutional investors in the region, this report takes a detailed look.

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.

BNP Paribas Securities Services is proud to sponsor this series of articles on supply chain
innovation. We hope these remarkable innovations will give you an ‘outside the box’
view on the possibilities to innovate in your supply chain.
We purposely looked outside our own partnerships and sectors to provide a very
open and unbiased view. We wanted to explore the correlation between innovations
in financial services with that of other sectors. The result yielded a few surprises in
particular with regards to the following themes:
Article 1: innovation in finance, insurance and technology
l Operational efficiency through real-time inventory management
l Customer insights for future proofing new products
Article 2: innovation in manufacturing and technology
l Engaging start-ups for product innovation
l Co-creation of products for a new market
Article 3: innovation in Asia
l Co-creation for a sustainable future
l Expanding globally with scalable partnerships
We hope these examples will generate some new ideas for your business and ways you
can innovate with your partners.

Supply-chain collaborations only work if they are built on a foundation of trust and
common goals
Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific Airways relies on its supply chain to move the
needle on innovation. From redesigning passenger seating to technologies that cut fuel
emissions, the airline turns to trusted suppliers to address challenges and grab new
opportunities at the core of its business. As Adrian Gjurasic, head of fuel and sustainable
procurement, points out: “Collaboration is absolutely critical to the success of our
company, and to our industry. We have to innovate our way out of the current state,
and we can’t do it by ourselves.”
By collaborating with its suppliers to achieve innovations, the traditionally conservative
airline is able to try out new ideas without assuming a lot of risk, according to Mr
Gjurasic. Cathay’s supplier collaborations typically involve two
kinds of vendors: major global suppliers, such as Rolls Royce,
with which the airline has long-standing relationships, and
innovative start-ups that bring disruptive solutions to the
table and use the success of the partnership as a way to scale
up their own businesses. “In both cases, these vendors have
a vested interest in the success of the relationship, and that’s
what we want,” Mr Gjurasic says.
Inpursuitofbiofuel
Cathay spends roughly 40% of its total operating budget
on fuel, so finding ways to cut fuel costs and lessen the
environmental footprint of its fuel use is a constant focus for
the company. Fuel considerations are at the core of many
of its supply-chain collaborations. In 2014 Cathay pioneered
a partnership with Fulcrum BioEnergy, a US-based biofuel
developer which converts municipal solid waste into jet fuel.
Not only will this partnership help Cathay lower its CO2 emissions and cut fuel costs, it
will also establish the airline as a global leader in sustainable jet-fuel development. “A
lot of airlines talk about biofuel, but we were the first to put real money behind it,” Mr
Gjurasic says.
Cathay made a significant initial investment in the company, ensuring that it shares an
interest in Fulcrum’s success. “This is a really good example of how we are partnering
with a start-up to achieve our goals,” according to Mr Gjurasic.
What kind of company the airline is willing to collaborate with, and how deep those

partnerships go depends on much more than a vendor bringing a creative solution to
the table. “We need to have a good rapport, a good cultural fit and aligned values with a
supplier for collaboration to happen,” Mr Gjurasic explains. “Otherwise these projects can
fail dramatically.”
Cathay has a dedicated biofuel manager who explored several
possible partnerships, and while Fulcrum seemed promising,
Cathay still spent 12 months meeting with the Fulcrum
leadership team before investing. This involved vetting the
technology, assessing the company’s business model and
getting to know its leaders and corporate culture to determine
whether this was the partnership that could help make
biofuel a reality for Cathay.
“A lot of relationships in Asia are built at the senior level,
with two CEOs sitting together and getting to know one
another before the project moves forward,” states Mr Gjurasic.
Cathay’s CEO liked the fact that Fulcrum’s leaders had
energy-industry experience, proven technology and a similar
approach to business management.
Cathay now has a seat on Fulcrum’s board of directors and
has a long-term supply agreement for an initial 375m gallons
of sustainable aviation fuel over ten years. In exchange, Fulcrum has used Cathay’s
initial investment to begin construction on several large-scale, waste-to-jet-fuel plants
at locations strategic to the Cathay Pacific network in North America. Mr Gjurasic
concludes: “From an operational perspective, this collaboration is a brand new direction
for us. The risks are there, but they are manageable, and it puts us on the ground floor
to take biofuel to the next level.”

“Spending time up-front to build trust before diving into the innovation phase is key
to the success of any supply-chain collaboration. This is especially true in Asia, where
relationship-building is at the foundation of every strong partnership,” says Cleveland
Brown, CEO of Payscout, a global payment-processing provider based in California.
In September 2015 Payscout announced a partnership with Alibaba Group, China’s
largest e-commerce company with annual sales of Rmb76.2bn (US$12.3bn). “It is
a collaboration that took years to solidify, but could change the long-term business
trajectory for both companies,” according to Mr Brown. Through the partnership
Payscout will provide global payment logistics for Tmall, Alibaba’s business-to-consumer
portal. Tmall currently has more than 180m shoppers in China, but the company wants

to expand its global product offering by encouraging non-Chinese companies to sell
directly on its site. The Payscout platform will enable Alibaba to establish secure global
payment processing quickly and accelerate Alibaba’s expansion into new markets.
“We often collaborate with suppliers mainly because of the need for new ideas and the
desire for new perspectives on our market expansion,” says John Lu, co-ordinating
manager for Alibaba’s logistics division, based in Hangzhou. Mr Lu notes that Alibaba
was attracted to Payscout because of the vendor’s efforts to
improve and modernise online payment technology.
However, the vetting process to partner with Alibaba had
started three years earlier, when Payscout established a
presence in China. On opening offices there it became a third-
party service provider for China UnionPay, the only domestic
bank-card organisation in China.
Mr Brown’s team spent a full two years meeting with
Chinese financial institutions and local finance regulators
building relationships, establishing trust and demonstrating
his leadership team’s track record for good business decisions.
“You have to be willing to prove yourself, and that takes time.
We had to earn their trust through our own integrity and
cultural empathy,” Mr Brown asserts. “That opens a space
where true innovation emerges.”
Today Payscout’s engineers are working on a daily basis
with Alibaba’s IT team to expand the payment platform
and address issues around currency conversion, sales forecasting, regulations and tax
laws, enabling Alibaba to rapidly deploy Tmall to countries around the world. This is
where the time spent up-front ultimately pays off. Payscout’s presence in more than
100 countries can greatly benefit Alibaba by making a new market entry possible in
a matter of weeks, rather than requiring a build-up over years. “Together, we can
achieve mutually beneficial results across developing markets,” Mr Lu says. “This is our
strategy.”
“Being selective about your partners increases the quality of the work and ensures that
when problems arise, they will be handled efficiently—and then avoided in the future”,
he adds. “Everyone makes mistakes. Not repeating them is the fate of great companies.”
