1. An overview of what a business plan is - a formal written document containing goals, methods, timeframes, and strategies to achieve targets.
2. An outline of the typical sections in a business plan - product/company name, explanation of name, vision, mission, objectives.
3. An introduction to a proposed business called "Boba-ka Tea" selling bubble tea with a mission to satisfy customers, make them happy, provide comfort food and promote positive thinking.
Trulia Founder & NFX (www.nfx.com) Managing Partner Pete Flint uncovers what's really happening in PropTech and why you should care (hint: it will be a massive opportunity).
The document discusses establishing objectives and budgeting for promotional programs. It emphasizes that objectives should be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and time-bound. Marketing objectives aim to achieve goals like sales and market share, while communication objectives are more narrow and focus on delivering messages to target audiences. Budgeting can be done through top-down or bottom-up approaches. Top-down uses a percentage of sales or competitive parity to set budgets, while bottom-up budgets activities to achieve predefined objectives. Marginal analysis is used to determine optimal spending by increasing, holding, or decreasing expenditures based on incremental returns.
Syngenta 2015 Full Year Results - Media PresentationSyngenta
Syngenta reported its 2015 full year results. While reported sales declined 11% due to currency headwinds, sales were down only 1% at constant exchange rates. Improved profitability led to a 140 basis point increase in EBITDA margin to 20.7%. Regional performance was mixed, with Latin America facing challenging market conditions in Brazil while Europe, Africa and the Middle East saw solid growth. Syngenta's new crop protection pipeline was upgraded to exceed $4 billion in future sales. Areas of focus include continued profitability improvements and maximizing performance in core crops.
This document provides a summary of Syngenta, a leading agribusiness company. It discusses Syngenta's business segments in crop protection and seeds which help farmers increase yields. It notes the challenges of sustainably feeding a growing global population with limited resources. The document also provides financial information on Syngenta's sales, markets, products, and regional presence around the world.
Our Industry 2014 is packed with insights and useful facts, graphs and images from Syngenta and many external sources. It covers the global challenges relating to food security and includes sections on the major crops and on advances in agricultural technology.

RGA Master Data Management at TDWI St. LouisTDWI St. Louis
RGA is a global life and health reinsurer and the second largest in North America. It implemented a Master Data Management (MDM) system to support a $20 million enterprise resource planning project. Lessons from the project highlighted the need for consistent data dictionaries and a versioning process. RGA's MDM strategy now includes financial, organizational, and investment master data and aims to expand into claims and valuation data. Governance processes involve data stewards, business rules, and request forms to maintain authoritative master data across systems.
This presentation elaborates on design decisions and design options when it comes to designing the master data architecture.
The presentation was given at the 16th Americas Conference on Information Systems (AMCIS 2010) in Lima, Peru.
This document discusses data governance and data architecture. It introduces data governance as the processes for managing data, including deciding data rights, making data decisions, and implementing those decisions. It describes how data architecture relates to data governance by providing patterns and structures for governing data. The document presents some common data architecture patterns, including a publish/subscribe pattern where a publisher pushes data to a hub and subscribers pull data from the hub. It also discusses how data architecture can support data governance goals through approaches like a subject area data model.
This presentation reports on data governance best practices. Based on a definition of fundamental terms and the business rationale for data governance, a set of case studies from leading companies is presented. The content of this presentation is a result of the Competence Center Corporate Data Quality (CC CDQ) at the University of St. Gallen, Switzerland.
The document discusses developing new fungicide active ingredients to address challenges in global food security. It describes Syngenta's fungicide discovery pipeline, including screening compounds for activity and determining their mode of action through techniques like haploinsufficiency assays. Mycelium graminicola is presented as a potential plant pathogen platform for mode of action discovery work.
Adopting a Process-Driven Approach to Master Data ManagementSoftware AG
What is a lasting solution to the sea of errors, headaches, and losses caused by inconsistent and inaccurate master data such as customer and product records? This is the data that your business counts on to operate business processes and make decisions. But this data is often incomplete or in conflict because it resides in multiple IT systems. Master Data Management (MDM)'s programs are the solution to this problem, but these programs can fail without the investment and involvement of business managers.
Listen to Rob Karel, Forrester analyst, and Jignesh Shah from Software AG to learn about a new, process-driven approach to MDM and why it is a win-win for both business and IT managers.

Technological developments and strategies to prevent soil depletion Syngenta
A perspective from Syngenta's Head of Environmental Policy Romano DeVivo on the importance of soil health and fertility. Improving farming practices on the ground is not only key to making progress towards the environmental targets embedded in the SDGs but also to addressing multiple social and economic targets that depend on the benefits that ecosystems provide to people.
The Good Growth Plan by Syngenta aims to improve smallholder productivity in Africa and the Middle East. Over the last few years, they have trained over 225,000 farmers on sustainable farming practices. Their network of 350,000 smallholders in the region have seen increased yields through the use of seeds and crop protection products. Case studies highlight farmers in countries like Ivory Coast, Egypt, Zimbabwe, and Zambia who have achieved yield increases of 14-49% by following Syngenta's protocols. The Reference Farm Network collects data that demonstrates the real impact of their techniques on empowering communities and increasing food security.
Creating landscapes with healthy, functioning
ecosystems is not only key to making progress towards
the environmental targets embedded in the Sustainable
Development Goals, but also to addressing multiple
social and economic targets that depend partly or wholly
on the benefits that ecosystems provide to people.
Crucial knowledge on what it will take to achieve food security by 2050. Did you know that food production must increase by 70%, yet resources to grow food are limited and rural communities need support.
Infographic: Harvesting beyond subsistence. Why smallholders are key to food ...Syngenta
Enhancing productivity is key to growers’ progress. To better understand how Syngenta’s work makes a difference to smallholders, we compare data from our reference farm network and interview growers to assess the wider impact on their lives and communities.
Soil is the foundation of all life on Earth – without it, we couldn’t grow the food we need to live. But it’s at risk from many different threats. So, we’re doing everything we can to help growers protect it.

How to Invest in Cryptocurrency for Beginners: A Complete GuideDaniel
Cryptocurrency is digital money that operates independently of a central authority, utilizing cryptography for security. Unlike traditional currencies issued by governments (fiat currencies), cryptocurrencies are decentralized and typically operate on a technology called blockchain. Each cryptocurrency transaction is recorded on a public ledger, ensuring transparency and security.
Cryptocurrencies can be used for various purposes, including online purchases, investment opportunities, and as a means of transferring value globally without the need for intermediaries like banks.
