Are we ready to make the UK the best country to grow old in?
One year ago, the House of Lords Committee on Public Services and Demographic Change produced a hard-hitting report which argued that the Government and society was “woefully underprepared” for a rapidly ageing population.
On the first anniversary of the ‘Ready for Ageing?’ report, we are in the unenviable position that sees the United Kingdom ranked unlucky number 13 in a global index of the best countries in the world to grow old in. The principal recommendations in the ‘Ready for Ageing?’ report have not yet been properly addressed or acted on.
In his October 2013 speech on ‘The Forgotten Million’, Secretary of State for Health, Jeremy Hunt MP, set down a challenge that the UK should in fact aspire to be best country to grow old in, but the question remains: why are our public services so poorly prepared for major demographic change, and what as a society can we do to ensure future generations of older people thrive in later life?
Lord Filkin, Chair of the Committee on Public Services and Demographic Change, hosted a House of Lords breakfast debate looking forward to 2030, a date by which there will be 50% more people aged 65 and over in England and a doubling in the numbers of people aged 85 and over. As a society, we need to prepare for the next 15 years right now and certainly in the next Parliament.
At this event, Independent Age and ILC-UK, supported by members of the Ready for Ageing Alliance, launched 2030 Vision: Making the UK the best country to grow old in, which will look to the long term and consider what politicians and policy makers need to now, both in preparation for next year’s General Election, and between 2015 and 2020, to prepare for the long term opportunities and challenges ahead.
During the debate, we invited contributions on the economic and societal implications of population ageing and the major policy decisions all the main parties face to ready the UK and its public services for dramatic population ageing.
It’s clear that our political, social and cultural approach towards old age today is already hopelessly out of date, so this event will provide Parliamentarians and stakeholders from across civil society with an opportunity to mark the first anniversary of the House of Lords’ Committee report on demographic change and look ahead, so as a society we can seize the opportunities presented by an ageing population.
Do you know what the first step in building a high converting list of loyal subscribers is? It’s not making the campaign, or the landing page, it’s identifying what your ideal subscriber wants. How are you going to appeal to them if you don’t know what they’re in need of?
Everyone's talking about big data – getting our arms around it and putting it to work for us. This paper summarizes a panel discussion at the 2012 SAS Financial Services Executive Summit where industry leaders shared their ideas about big data and what their organizations are doing with it. Aditya Bhasin from Bank of America talked about how to extract more value from the data you already have, even if it's just a fraction of what's out there. Robert Kirkpatrick, who leads the UN Global Pulse initiative, talked about how data can help us better understand global economies and human welfare. Charles Thomas, a market research and analytics executive at USAA, described how his company is navigating the shift to more real-time and predictive analysis.

When it comes to email marketing, email deliverability in particular, there is a lot of misinformation floating around out there. Some of this is simply due to the fact that email is a moving target. As soon as you think you’ve got it figured out, the ISPs(i.e. Gmail, Hotmail/Outlook, etc.) change the game. There’s also a vested interest on the part of many email service providers to perpetuate some of these myths for personal gain. So let’s debunk some of these myths!
Good marketing is compelling and engaging, but since what pleases and intrigues one person may offend or irritate someone else, there is a distinct possibility that to optimize your conversion rates you will have to accept some level of attrition on your list. What do your metrics say about your campaign?

Getting to the Gmail Inbox: Gmail DeliverabilityEmail Delivered
Earlier this year Gmail switched to a tabbed inbox. While the thought of it freaked a lot of email marketers out, the aftermath wasn't too bad. But there are a new set of rules to not just get to the Gmail inbox, but to get to the correct Gmail tab. Remember, Google is VERY protective of it's users.
Investors have had to contend with many upsetting concerns over the last year, including geopolitical uncertainty, social unrest, natural disasters, monetary tightening, new regulations, and a U.S. government downgrade. The European Sovereign Debt Crisis was underway for over a year when the worrying Nightmares began compounding in March 2011. These Nightmares have undercut confidence and global growth expectations, which impeded equity returns and drove Treasury yields lower. Uncertainty fueled much higher volatility across equity, bond, currency, and commodity markets. Relative valuations across asset classes now provide compelling opportunities for active management, as extreme relative valuations should normalize. U.S. equity valuations are compelling enough, in our opinion, to support a U.S. equity return exceeding 9.5%.
Surprising strength in earnings, consumption, and investment activity has persisted. Earnings growth and high profit margins have benefited from above average productivity, but earnings growth is expected to slow this year to 10%, according to the consensus. The “output gapers” have argued that there is too much slack in employment and manufacturing capacity to push up inflation, yet consumer prices surged 3.9% before easing recently. Normalizing inflation and growth will increase pressure to raise interest rates.

Het realiseren van woningen in een veranderende markt
De woningmarkt stagneert, projecten komen moeilijk van de grond en gaan gepaard met hoge risico’s. Het proces van woningontwikkeling is door de economische crisis veranderd. Op kleinere schaal en in gewijzigde verhoudingen moeten partijen nieuwe ontwikkelingsstrategieën ontwikkelen om een woningontwikkeling te realiseren. Dit vraagt om kennis en vaardigheden, een nieuw vak-manschap. In de opleiding Woning-ontwikkeling staat dit vakmanschap voor woningontwikkelaars centraal.

Presentatie Nederlandse Vereniging van Business centers en Economische Ontwik...Sebastiaan Willemsen
Het zakelijke ecosysteem is aan het veranderen. Bedrijvencentra met de doelgroep van kleine en startende ondernemingen kunnen hun sterke kant verder benutten.
De bedrijvencentra zijn een fysiek knooppunt van ondernemerschap, kennis en sociale netwerken. Door de specifieke positionering in het zakelijke netwerk van onder andere de ondernemingen, gemeenten, KVKs en onderwijsinstituten liggen er veel kansen. Deze hub functie kan verder versterkt worden.
De de kleine ondernemingen zijn de verbindende factor voor alle belanghebbenden. De eigen winstgevendheid kan hierdoor worden verhoogd, maar ook alle aangesloten partijen hebben er baat bij. Gemeenten hebben minder mensen in een uitkeringssituatie, onderwijsinstituten vinden meer stageplaatsen en zien hun maatschappelijke relevantie toenemen en de startende ondernemer heeft meer overlevingskans.

Living L@B Works - Business Case workshopSander Smit
Presentatie voor de workshop "Jouw Business Case voor een Duurzame Samenwerking", gegeven tijdens de European Social Innovation Week voor Living L@B Works
Tijdens het congres van Kortom (Vereniging voor Overheidscommunicatie) op 7 mei in het Vlaams Parlement, gaven Kristel Van Mierlo en Ivo Clerix tekst en uitleg bij hun citymarketing-aanpak.
2. Programma
• Welkomstwoord; Geerth Boschma
• De veranderende rol van het communicatiebureau bij gebiedsontwikkeling; Loek Hogenhout
• Walas Concepts; Gerben van Straaten
• Omgevingsmanagement Annemarieke
• Afsluiting en vragen
5. Projecten en initiatieven moet je al veel eerder dan de
eerste ruwe schetsen als product behandelen dus
vanuit de marketingmethodiek.
6. Kijk naar markt, marktbehoefte ook op langere termijn
de aloude ‘4 P’s’, bewijzen daarbij hun klassieke
waarde: product, plaats, prijs en promotie.
7. Verrassende en tegelijkertijd logische uitkomsten als je
huidige, haperende projecten langs deze meetlat legt
één van de oorzaken: er is vaak geen integrale aanpak
(marketing PLUS gebiedsontwikkeling) bij projecten.
8. Er wordt in deze gevallen gewerkt met
communicatiebureaus en nauwelijks met strategische
marketingbureaus.
Daardoor veel cosmetische “folderbrei” en
windowdressing.
9. Hand in eigen boezem:
Marcombureaus moeten hun verantwoordelijkheid
nemen (voorbeeld midden Drenthe).
11. In het Noorden:
• Daad & kenniskracht mobiliseren
• Uitstekende marketingopleidingen Hanzehogeschool
• Fameuze postdoctorale opleidingen
• Merkmanagement RUG
• Academie Bouwkunst
Last but not least: City of Talent
12. Maar vooral:
Regio waar “duurzaam leven” wordt gekoesterd.
Dat betekent dat je met andere ogen naar de wereld
moet kijken: de aarde is inderdaad niet van ons.
Daarover nu drs. Gerben van Straaten

25. Redenen:
‘Resultaten uit het verleden zijn een
garantie voor de toekomst’.
• Banken, beleggers etc
• Financieren op basis van langjarige statistieken
• Signaleren veel te laat
• Niet in staat vernieuwing voldoende te financieren
• Noodzakelijke transities blijven uit
27. Redenen:
De drift voor grondopbrengst door
gemeenten is een eindig systeem,
te weinig inzet op vernieuwing,
te weinig ruimte voor alternatieven.
• Banken, beleggers etc
• Financieren op basis van langjarige statistieken
• Signaleren veel te laat
• Niet in staat vernieuwing voldoende te financieren
• Noodzakelijke transities blijven uit
