SABMiller has shown flexibility in its operations since inception by recognizing market potential in South African mining communities. It came to dominate the beverage industry in South Africa and Southern Africa through acquisitions. As constraints emerged, it shifted from a synergy strategy to portfolio management, then back to focus on brewing. Currently operating worldwide, SABMiller's growth has come through developing markets, acquisitions, and brand growth. Strategic options include further consolidation, product development, and market expansion in Asia/Europe while maintaining skills in developing markets.

The alcoholic beverage market has long been formed by volatile demand trends, legislative regulation, and fierce competition in a highly-concentrated environment. Generating over USD 33.38bn of revenue in 2015, the beer segment faces great rivalry, declining demands, and threatening substitutes. Moreover, the industry has been characterized significantly by mergers and acquisitions in the past, such as the SABMiller plc being acquired by Anheuser-Busch InBev in 2016. This presentation, created with my workgroup for the Master in Management at IE Business School provides a thorough analysis of AB InBev. The multinational corporation, listed on the Euronext Brussels and focused on the beverage and brewing industry, is considered as one of the largest fast-moving consumer goods companies in the world. To analyse AB InBev the SCP approach was applied using Porter’s five forces and a dynamic overview of the industry applying a strategic group map.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

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

2. LEARNINGS
• Macro environmental influences, competitive structures of
markets (chapter 2 Environment),
• Organisational competences (chapter 3 Strategic
Capabilities),
• Stakeholder expectations (chapter 4 Expectations &
Purposes).
• How strategic options are formulated to respond to such
demands (chapter 7 Directions & Methods of Development),
• And the role and importance of environmental scanning
(chapter 2 Environment)
3. CORPORATE OVERVIEW
• SABMiller has shown a remarkable flexibility in its organisation and
operations since its inception.
• Its establishment in the Johannesburg gold fields was the result of
the recognition of the huge market potential that the mining
communities provided to the company.
• Over the subsequent decades it came to dominate the beverage
industry in South Africa and establish a very strong position in
Southern Africa.
• Parts of the development during this period showed a synergy
management logic – acquiring wineries and glass manufacturers
for example.
• Yet, as growth was further constrained by the external
environment, particularly by the sanctions campaign against
apartheid,
4. Corporate Overview Contd:
• This reduced the purely synergetic investment opportunities
for the business both regionally and globally.
• Consequently a shift from a corporate logic of synergy to
one of portfolio management occurred with SAB acquiring
the ownership of businesses as diverse as furniture and
safety matches, Hotel & etc.
• With the ending of apartheid a range of new growth
opportunities opened up and initial opportunities were taken
up in Southern Africa, markets which SAB already had
considerable knowledge of.
• The 1990s therefore saw SAB shift its corporate logic again
to one of parental development and a renewed focus on the
brewing business.
5. STRATEGIC POISITION
Business Environment
• SABMiller is now operating worldwide.
• Its growth has come through entering
developing markets, acquiring businesses and
brands, and growing them.
• The strategy has seemed to yield healthy
growth in the past in most of the markets in
which it has entered.
6. SOUTH AFRICA
• Original market for SABMiller
• Company has experienced mixed fortunes
• In 1992, Income of people spending on
beverages & tobacco has fallen.
• In 2001, Spread of AIDS/HIV.
• In 2003, Volume increased by 1% on 2002,
still 5% decline as compared to 1999.
7. AFRICA (OUTSIDE SOUTH AFRICA) & ASIA
• Growth of 3.2% with strong performance from
Tanzania.
• In 2002, Soft drinks volume growth was
15.3%.
• EBITDA growth in China was more than
doubled year on year.
• In India, Achieved Break Even in 1st Year.
• Acquisition of Rochees Brewery in Rajastan.
• Launch Castle Lager in Mumbai, Banglore &
Delhi.
8. NORTH & CENTRAL AMERICA
NORTH AMERICA (2003)
• US Beer industry affected by low consumer
confidence, lacklusture economy, recent
world events & poor weather.
CENTRAL AMERICA (2003)
• Decline in Sales & Operating margin.
• Restructuring in business.
• Merged back office operations across the
region.
9. EUROPE
• High profit with EBITDA growth of 39%.
• Debowe, A new Brand successful launch with
capturing 20% share in polish market.
• International premium brand Pilsner Urquell
perform well in export market of US, UK &
Germany.
• In Russia, Volume up by 9%, 27% growth in end
of the year.
• In Hungary, General price stability continued,
assisting overall industry profitability.
10. STRATEGIC CAPABILITY
• Competences in environmental scanning and
developing strategic options.
• Moving of corporate headquarters from London
to Johannesburg in 1950.
• The introduction of a non-discriminatory code of
employment in 1978.
• And the preparation of “complex defensive
investment structures” for deployment in 1985 in
response to economic sanctions.
11. • The emergence of the company onto the global
market, particularly with the acquisition of Miller,
has led to a reframing of what it means by
parental development.
• This indicates a competence that the company
has had to develop as it moves forward into the
21st century.
• Improve its abilities to manage the Western
money markets, by putting its competence in
terms that are understood in New York and
London, and acquiring businesses in markets
that interest it more.
12. • Company displays is a culture of flexibility
amongst its managers.
• SABMiller executives have faced a range
of challenges from micro to macro levels.
• They are unlikely to be fazed by the
challenges of emerging markets and have
maximised return on this competence and
reinforced it within the business by their
ventures in Eastern Europe and Asia.
13. • At the corporate level the company has developed
competences in the acquisition of breweries that allow it to
exercise the business-level competences that it has.
• SABMiller has demonstrated strong value-adding parenting
capabilities.
• These have been particularly apparent, as in reducing
inefficiencies in operations, including changing work
practices in Miller; & value addition in marketing.
• By the retention of existing brands in the breweries the
company has acquired in the region.
14. STRATEGIC OPTION & EVALUATION
Consolidation:
• Reducing the risks associated with the more developed
markets – South Africa, Europe and the US
• While ensuring as firm a base as possible in emergent
markets (reducing risk in vulnerable regions/markets,
improving efficiency further, etc.).
• SABMiller has made its major Western acquisition it is not
clear what further growth pressures may be put on the
business by shareholders, though the risk would remain
that if it fails to grow itself it may become a target for
takeover.
15. PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
• New beer products and transference of beer
products and brands between markets.
• Launching new varieties of beer and developing
existing varieties.
• It has also been transferring brands across
different markets and regions.
• However, this too may not provide the company
with the sort of growth that is now being
expected of it and it may underestimate the
importance of brand loyalty across the world.
16. • Market development/Africa, i.e. entering further countries
and extending the penetration in existing countries.
• This certainly builds on past competences and success,
and is likely to be feasible.
• But it is not clear how well this might meet expectations
for growth.
• Once highly promising markets such as Zimbabwe are
looking extremely depressed now,
• The threat of HIV/AIDS to economic growth and political
instability in South Africa may also cause continent wide
economic disruption.
17. MARKET DEVELOPMENT ASIA & EUROPE
• Developing further the strategy already under way
to enter developing markets outside Africa.
• This builds strongly on the strategy that has been
followed over recent years.
• It seeks to apply the competences built up in
African developing markets to developing markets
elsewhere.
• It has been largely successful because it provides
an opportunity to improve efficiencies and
introduce better brand marketing.
18. MARKET DEVELOPMENT WESTERN MARKET
• Developing further presence in Western Europe
and America.
• While heavy expectations were put on SABMiller
following its listing on the London Stock
Exchange to acquire a major Western brewer.
• The initial foray into the US market has been
perhaps more trying than all anticipated.
• While it appears at the time of writing that the
company has succeeded in a turnaround of
Miller.
19. DIVERSIFICATION
• Move away from a reliance on brewing towards,
for example, distribution and retailing (the
company is already operating in hotels).
• This would certainly seem to have the resources
available to allow them to better utilisation.
• But it could confuse their investors, who would
see them slipping down the path of unnecessary
diversification in areas where they have little
competence.
20. JOINT VENTURE
• A joint venture with a major Western brewer.
• There is a case to be made for a joint venture with
an established Western brewer.
• The logic of such a joint venture, presumably, would
be that SABMiller could bring to bear its expertise
and position in developing markets to the benefit of
the Western brewer,
• The Western brewer could bring further entry points
for SABMiller brands into Western markets.
• Clearly this would build on existing competences and
resources.
21. SELL
By one of the other major brewers.
• Unlike most of the other major brewers (all
Western), SABMiller offers a market presence to
them and a set of competences that they do not
have.
• It would be a significant opportunity for a major
brewer to obtain a substantial position around the
world.
• It might also be attractive to investors, who would
see SABMiller realizing a healthy return for its
shareholders.
22. RECOMMENDATIONS
• It would be very unwise for SABMiller
to jeopardize its skills or position in
developing markets.
• But it does seem to need to gain a
greater presence in the West.
