The document discusses interviews conducted for a project on IP protection and monitoring in the 3D printing industry. It provides a breakdown of the types of people interviewed - 10 IP holders, 12 3D industry players, 39 consumers, and 7 IP lawyers, for a total of 68 interviews. The rest of the document consists of diagrams and notes from several "canvas days" brainstorming a business model in this area.
This presentation will give you deep insight into the nature of business models. It describes traditional and bleeding-edge models and their dynamics, innovation techniques, how to position your model within an intensely competitive landscape, and how to lead the redesign of your own organization’s business model.
I did a quick run down of the different blocks on the Business Model Canvas at Ajujaht (Estonian entrepreneurship competition), which we followed by a brain dump of the team members on the canvas itself.
I made this presentation because I was having this one question in mind for many days First step of any Business is designing an exceptional Business Model,I hope it help you in solving your doubts.Thank You.

IoT and mobile computing are at the heart of many organizations’ digital transformation initiatives. Together, these technologies are enabling enterprises to innovate new business models and solutions that enhance customer and partner interactions, optimize supply chain logistics, and improve operational efficiency. Implementing a scalable and extensible IoT architecture is key for this transformation.
WSO2 IoT Server offers an extensible framework for device manufacturers to write plugins for various types of devices they wish to integrate with. Data gathered from devices can be processed with batch and real-time analytics and this data can even be fed into a prediction engine. Devices can be exposed as managed APIs for integration. On top these, it offers a complete enterprise mobility management (EMM/MDM/MAM) solution for enterprises looking to manage employees’ mobile devices.
This talk will give you an introduction to the key capabilities of WSO2 IoT Server and discusses how it can be extended to build a scalable IoT architecture.

Where to begin? That question remains prominent for many organizations who are trying to leverage the value of big data analytics. Most sources of big data are quite different than traditional enterprise data systems. This requires new skill sets, both for the granular integration work, as well as the strategic business perspective required to design useful solutions.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to hear veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor as he explains the pain points associated with modern data volumes and types. He will be briefed by Rick Clements of IBM, who will tout IBM's big data platform, specifically InfoSphere BigInsights, InfoSphere Streams and InfoSphere Data Explorer. He will also present specific use cases that demonstrate how IT and the line of business can springboard over existing challenges, gain insight and improve operational performance.

Flink Forward Berlin 2017: Bas Geerdink, Martijn Visser - Fast Data at ING - ...Flink Forward
ING is using Apache Flink for creating streaming analytics ('fast data') solutions. We created a platform with Flink and Kafka that offers high-throughput and low-latency, ideally suited for complex and demanding use cases in the international bank such as customer notifications and fraud detection. These use cases require fast data processing and a business rules engine and/or machine learning evaluation system. Integrating these components together in a always-on, distributed architecture can be challenging. In this talk, we'll start with a brief overview of the use cases. You'll learn why ING chose Flink for these use cases, and see the architecture of the streaming data platform in depth. Finally, we'll share some lessons learned and useful insights for organizations who embark on a similar journey.

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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

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.

23. What we are going to do / Conclusion
Find Out / Test Hypothesis Next Steps / Actions
• The total size of the legal discovery services market • Obtain data from the CEO of a legal
discover company
• Research competitors: manual services and
automated solutions including Mark Monitor
(acquired by Reuters)
• Obtain more information about it from a
classmate working at Thompson Reuters
• The exact scope of needs for constant IP protection
from manufacturer side
• Reach out to large companies and present
the Demo
• The technology availability and the cost structure for
partnering with technology providers
• Reach out to 3D research engine labs to
talk to SW/HW engineers
Lessons Learned
• Customer discovery appears to be an excellent way to compare your hypothesis with your actual
customer needs, and can save one many months of work on the wrong direction
• Before we begin to spend money on development, we need to make sure that we are finding a market
fit for our customer segments.
