Millennials have grown up with technology and rely on it more than previous generations. They are more collaborative, interested in social status and individualism, and less interested in car ownership compared to older generations. Researchers need to understand differences between generations, like Millennials being more achievement-oriented, as well as differences within generations using frameworks like "digital native" versus "digital immigrant" to analyze consumer behavior. Understanding changing generational patterns is important for marketing strategies and public policy.

Smart Millennials and their Changing Shopping Trends: A Case of Millennial St...IJMTST Journal
Shopping habits among people change with the change in generation. Each generation is characterized by unique habits and preferences. Understanding the changing trends becomes paramount for retailers to suit their business strategies to the new-age customers. On the other hand, reforms in the industry and pressures from competition throws open new vistas for today's retailers. In this connection, a study has been initiated to understand the changing shopping trends among millennials. The chief objective of the study is to find the changing habits of millennials in terms of their online buying, the penetration of smart-phone into their purchase process and their satisfaction towards online purchase. A sample of 135 respondents in Nellore was approached for a survey and after a few rejections; data from a total of 128 respondents was gathered using a structured questionnaire. The data gathered was thoroughly analyzed using statistical tools and the findings were presented. The results of the study state that the new-gen shoppers who are termed as millennials are coming up with unprecedented shopping habits and preferences. Most of the millennials own a smartphone or two which has disrupted the shopping trends in the market. Smart Millennials, the ones who belong to millennial generation and who own a smartphone are ubiquitous. Smartphones have penetrated deep into their personal lives. Smart millenials are welcoming experiments in product delivery and payment methods, spurring online shopping trend. However, there exist a few cases, if not many in which these smart millennials are slurred by a few online retailers by way failed delivery of product ordered. The study concludes that smart millennials are going to make a huge pie of the market in the years ahead and with the changing times comes the need for the retailers to fine-tune business as well.

Intergenerational Perceptions about Online Platforms and Digital Marketing Ac...anoop_g
Generation is a group of individuals born within the same range of birth years and share similar experiences, traits, behaviors and attitudes. When developing a digital marketing strategy businesses and marketers need to understand the perception of every generational cohorts as their time spend online, online purchase decision and platforms used differ. Generations X, Y and Z form a prominent group and comprises of more than 90% customer segment and this study tries to explore their perception towards online platforms and digital marketing activities. GenX are digital immigrants, GenY are digital natives and GenZ are mobile natives. From this study we understand that traditional media has more influence on Gen X than online media. Gen Y cohorts are aware of both the media whereas Gen Z do not see any difference among them. All generations use WhatsApp for communication and email for official purpose. YouTube is the most commonly used online streaming platform among all generations. Gen X prefers social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, whereas Gen Y mostly uses Facebook, Instagram followed by Twitter and LinkedIn. Gen Z use Instagram & SnapChat and are slowly shifting away from Facebook. Gen X group are generally ignored or overlooked by businesses while developing digital marketing strategies. Inter-generational similarities and intra-generational differences in perceptions are not considered while promoting the products and services. Single online platform marketing may not be effective, as online platform preference differs and hence multi-online platform approach may be considered.

Grote partijen zijn al een tijdje onderweg met retail media. Ondertussen worden in dit domein ook de kansen zichtbaar voor andere spelers in de markt. Maar met die kansen ontstaan ook vragen: Zelf retail media worden of erop adverteren? In welke fase van de funnel past het en hoe integreer je het in een mediaplan? Wat is nu precies het verschil met marketplaces en Programmatic ads? In dit half uur beslechten we de dilemma's en krijg je antwoorden op wanneer het voor jou tijd is om de volgende stap te zetten.

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.

Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.

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.

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

The India Orthopedic Devices Market is being driven by several factors. The most prominent ones include an increase in the elderly population, who are more prone to orthopedic conditions such as osteoporosis and arthritis. Moreover, the rise in sports injuries and road accidents are also contributing to the demand for orthopedic devices. Advances in technology and the introduction of innovative implants and prosthetics have further propelled the market growth. Additionally, government initiatives aimed at improving healthcare infrastructure and the increasing prevalence of lifestyle diseases have led to an upward trend in orthopedic surgeries, thereby fueling the market demand for these devices.
