Consumers and the Digital Health Information JourneyEdelman
Edelman Health recently launched results from a new study – Consumers and the Digital Health Information Journey – that focuses on how US consumers engage with and use digital health content.Partnering with Edelman Berland, they conducted research that looked at 1500 US adults consisting of Millennials (ages 18-34), the Sandwich Generation (ages 35-64) and Seniors (ages 65+). Additionally, a Caregiver group was identified that included those adults who are responsible for the health decisions of a parent or other adult relative. While the study initially set out to explore how the different generations consume and use digital health content, it soon focused on the interesting results related to the Caregiver segment.
This deck is a deep dive on the digital health behaviors and preferences of Caregivers who revealed themselves as more engaged and influential than the generational groups, including Millennials. We believe that Caregivers are an overlooked group by healthcare marketers and represent a real opportunity for targeted engagement by pharma, biotech, payers, providers and other stakeholders within the healthcare industry.

When it comes to the biggest trends in marketing today, our industry is obsessed with channels such as social, voice, and augmented reality as the means for reaching today’s modern audience. And while each plays an important role in the customer journey, new research from Adobe finds a more traditional form of marketing—email—is very much holding its own among newer channels and technologies.
This survey has been implemented by CES to assess consumer sentiments ahead of Eid-ul-Fitr. With a sample size of 651, the survey was administered online and followed a random sampling method. The survey finds that the majority (85%) of the respondents are unsure or pessimistic about the country’s economic condition after COVID-19 and at least 84% of respondents are cutting back on their spending. The survey also finds that Eid spending will nose-dive sharply, with restaurants and hotels expected to be the hardest-hit sectors. A CES Thought Leadership Article is due based on this survey.
In order to understand how the pandemic is impacting customer behavior, Hero Digital surveyed 1,008 people about how their behaviors have changed since the start of the COVID-19 crisis. The surveys were conducted using Google Surveys between March 23 and 25, 2020.

SolarWinds Application Performance End User Survey (Singapore)SolarWinds
The proliferation of BYOD, cloud, SaaS and consumer technologies in the workplace have made the application the disruptive technology that will drive business IT into the coming decades. At the same time, the application delivery chain is becoming more complex to support as applications become more networked, virtualization drives IT infrastructure convergence and abstraction and end users become more mobile. These survey findings highlight the impact of application performance and availability on business end users, and their experiences with and expectations of IT when problems arise. Chief among the findings is that while the application is now the heart of businesses of all sizes and its performance is the lifeblood of success, IT continues to struggle to ensure its performance and availability.

Is trust in the cloud important? Based on recent EIU survey findings, it appears so. When organisations exhibit higher levels of trust in the cloud, there is a substantial and positive correlation with a wide range of business outcomes. On the opposite end of the spectrum, if users don’t trust the cloud because they don’t understand its attributes, it will be a less effective tool for them.
This report, sponsored by Google, assesses how far along businesses around the world are on the cloud progression and trust curve. Survey findings are based on a 10-country, multi-industry survey of 452 senior executives, as well as interviews with cloud experts.

Each September Tech and People Network releases its highly anticipated Canadian Tech Industry Salary and Policy and Practices Survey which encompassses close to 30,000 salary data points from it's 200+ member companies across Canada. In the past 18months the tech industry experienced the extreme swing of the "great resignation" and the (often expensive) struggle to retain their talent directly into a cooling period, with many companies forced to take cost cutting measures. All of this came on top of the resurgence of return to office decisions and the shifting priorities of our workforce.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
