The Digital world has given rise to a new breed of influencers, opinion leaders, critics or in some cases just a voice wanting to be heard. It is a complex world and most times replete with jargon or terms which are not easily understood. Having said that, brands are built or (sometimes) destroyed overnight as opinions or experiences are floating freely for anyone who is willing to lend an ear.
In order words the digital world is a necessary evil and listening, tracking and most importantly measuring the impact on the brand has become very crucial and complex at the same time. Making sense out of the data on a common platform is also a huge challenge.
BuzzAngles focuses on measuring what is relevant along with detailed analytics on the brand. It keeps you informed about the dynamics of the digital medium, by Monitoring, Capturing and Analyzing the information. It delivers knowledge that can be visualized and represented via web application and mobile app keeping your focus only on decision making.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder

Marvin neemt je in deze presentatie mee in de voordelen van non-endemic advertising op retail media netwerken. Hij brengt ook de uitdagingen in beeld die de markt op dit moment heeft op het gebied van retail media voor niet-leveranciers.
Retail media wordt gezien als het nieuwe advertising-medium en ook mediabureaus richten massaal retail media-afdelingen op. Merken die niet in de betreffende winkel liggen staan ook nog niet in de rij om op de retail media netwerken te adverteren. Marvin belicht de uitdagingen die er zijn om echt aansluiting te vinden op die markt van non-endemic advertising.
Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

2. Opening doors to the next big media movement
Indian Premier League ushers in a new era of marketing
of sports in India. We take this opportunity to analyze
IPL and compare it with leagues like EPL and ICL
(Indian Cricket League).
IPL- already a US$2bn property, is essentially an
attempt to sell cricket as a reality show. Creation of club
culture – would be key to its success. Nevertheless IPL
provides a new entertainment genre which cuts across
classes.
Some of the franchisee would look at IPL as a means to
promote their brand (UB group) while the others would
look it as a financial investment e.g. (India Cements).
The concept is yet to evolve and revenues streams
though difficult to predict would be numerous. Our belief
is that the three successful teams could easily do
revenues of Rs3bn per year in the next three-four years
and all the teams are likely to turn profitable after two-
three years. Their OPMs could range from 15-20%.
Value unlocking for teams would happen through listing
and P/E participation. The world over, average teams
like Tottheham Hotspurs are trading at a 1.5X sales
while a successful team like Manchester have been sold
for 2-5X sales.
Investors looking for an exposure to IPL should look at
investing in India Cements Ltd. We believe that the
company would be EBIDTA positive in the first year. On
conservative basis, it is likely to earn a turnover of
Rs3bn from IPL in the next three-four years. Assuming a
m cap/sales multiple of 2X, the value per share would
be Rs20.

3. Key features of IPL
The Indian Premier League or IPL is a 20-20 format cricket tournament. This league was formed by the Board of
Cricket Control of India (BCCI) and sanctioned by the International Cricket Committee (ICC).
IPL has been conceived on the lines of the English premier league, where local football teams with a defined fan base
(supporters) play against each other.
The idea behind IPL is to sell cricket as a high involvement reality show that would appeal to all audiences.
IPL has eight teams sold to franchises for perpetuity. These franchises can run the league in their individual styles and
can raise resources from the primary market. The teams have been capped at 10 – with one at the end of every three
years.
SONY-WSG has bagged broadcasting rights for 10 years for US$918mn, excluding marketing for US$108mn.
The franchise amount collected is US$724mn, with each of the clubs being sold for US$67-112mn, depending on the
city.
Besides acquiring teams, each of these franchises has spent US$6-7mn on acquiring players for their teams.
A total of 59 matches, including finals and semi–finals will be played in this season. (56 league matches plus two semi
finals and one final). 7 matches are to be played on the home ground.
Its final leg will be called ‘Champions Twenty20 League’ and all the finalists from across the world will play in it. The
champion team will get US$5mn – the highest ever price money in a cricket event.

4. The broadcasting angle
The BCCI created history when it sold television rights of this yet untested format to Sony–World Sports consortium
for US$1.02bn.
However, of this US$1.02bn, US$108mn is to be spent by Sony on promoting the event over the next 10 years. This
brings down the actual cost to US$918mn.
Of this US$918mn, Sony has to pay US316mn for rights of broadcasting for the first five years, and then pay
US608mn – if this format has been remunerative in the first five years.
In the first year, payouts are not dependent on TRPs. However, TRPs would drive payouts from the second year.
The franchisee have a share of 80% in the first year decreasing to 60% in the fifth year of broadcasting rights
and the balance would go to IPL.
There is an overall cap of US$918mn on the rights which can be shared with the franchisees.

8. Assumptions for our model
80% media rights will be paid to the franchises in equal proportions and 20% will be based on final league
positions. However, in our model, we have assumed them to be distributed, equally.
The media rights accrue to teams in the formula, with a re-pricing after five years as per the Sony-WSG
contact.
For central and team sponsors, we have assumed renegotiation of contract every five years and three
years, respectively, in keeping with the nature of deals signed by most teams.
Team costs are amortized over 10 years.
Since players are contracted for three years, we have assumed a renegotiation in salaries after it.
Player acquisition cost is assumed to increased at 30% per year.
We have not assumed any trading of players.
We have not assumed any debt in the financing of the leagues. Further, interest on working capital loans
would not be significant hence we have not considered the same. The asset is likely to be treated as an
intangible asset.
The franchises will receive the following share of central revenues

10. International perspective
We have analysed the business models of various clubs from the English Premier League like Tottenham
Hotspurs, Liverpool and Arsenal.
These clubs usually own their stadiums and invest heavily into modernizing/constructing stadiums and training
their teams.
Most of these leagues are more than 100 years old and have a strong and established local fan base.
These clubs also have high community involvement and offer training facilities for upcoming players and children
in the area.
However lately some league matches have been telecast with players and teams finding support overseas in
countries like China and the Middle East.
Growth in revenues is largely dependant on the on field performance of the teams, nevertheless all teams have

Recently some of these leagues have been sold/ bought by individuals. The valuations received by these leagues

12. Case study 1: Tottenham Hotspurs
Totteham was not the top rated club but it entered the top five in 2006 and qualified for the European Cup.
This had a positive impact on its revenues from 2007 which increased by 28%. The main jump was in gate
receipts which were up 43% as the clubs earned a revenue share from its international games. There was also a
25% increase in its sponsorship revenues which is attributed to its increased popularity on an international level.
On the operational front, the margin jumped from 6% to 31%.
It has to be noted that even in a bad year, the company’s OPM was always positive.

13. Case study 2 : Arsenal
Arsenal is one of the most successful football clubs in UK .
The company has three divisions – Arsenal property development, Arsenal men's league, Arsenal women’s
league.
For their football division, the overall revenues were up 25% in 2007. The gate revenues saw a 51% growth –
attributed to the team shifting to a new stadium. While the older stadium had a capacity of ~ 40,000, the new
stadium has a capacity of almost 60,000 and therefore gate revenues rose from £44mn to 90mn.
Its merchandising or retail revenues contribute 7% to sales due to its popularity.
The operating margin was 34%.
The debt for CY07 was £340mn, implying debt to equity of 2.5:1.

14. The Indian Cricket League (ICL): The underdog
Launched by Subhash Chandra in May 2007, ICL is a unique concept in cricket after Zee was not able to
secure rights of the World Cup 2011.
ICL initially had six teams which have now increased to eight (over 200 players). All these teams were owned
by Subhash Chandra unlike the eight teams in IPL owned by different franchises.
The investments in ICL are in excess of Rs1bn .
ICL is scheduled to have four tournaments in an year, of which three are televised events while IPL has only
one season.
ICL has evolved despite several constraints like unavailability of venues and professionals associated with ICC.
The first season was telecast on Zee Sports and was held in one venue.
The second season was more successful as ICL was able to secure three venues for 24 matches. ICL was
able to telecast matches on Zee Sports and Ten Sports. Other telecasters include Geo Super in Pakistan,
Astro & Telkom Malaysia, Starhub in Singapore, Showtime Arabia in Middle-East, Zee Sports in USA &
Canada and Zee Cinema in United Kingdom & Europe. Global rights have been sold for US$10mn.
Besides, the second tournament was able to garner good sponsors. Edelweiss was the title sponsor with
Rs150mn (for ten years) while JVC, Aircel, Vodafone and Intel were associate sponsors.
Stakes in teams like Kolkotta and Lahore have been sold to Mithun Chakraborthy and Moammar Rana,
respectively.
It had a TVR of 1.2. Its revenues till date have been Rs750mn and is expected to break even in FY09E.

15. Impact of IPL on other media
TV GEC
IPL is scheduled to be telecast in the most sought after prime time slot of 8-11 pm. Currently, this
slot is the most popular among housewives for soaps aired on general entertainment channels
(GECs) like Star Plus, Zee and Set.
Most homes in India are single TV homes and it is likely that IPL will cause a dent in the ratings and
revenues of other GECs.
Not only will the Hindi GECs face problems, even regional channels which hitherto did not face
competition from national level reality shows are likely to take a big hit.
Channel Genre Average TRPS
Zee Soaps + Rock and Roll family 5 - 5.5
Star Soaps + Paachvi Pass (SRK) 4-5
9X Chak De Bacche+ Reality 0.7 - 1.35
NDTV Mythological + Drama 1.25 - 2.12

Box Office
Besides impacting TV ratings, IPL fever could have a negative rub off on the revenues of movies at
the box office. Some of the moves expected to be released in the IPL season are U Me aur Hum,
Tashan, Krazzy 4 and Bhootnath.
But IPL is in talks with Multiplex operators to telecast the semi-finals and finals. No decision on the
same has been reached.
15
16. Should one have an exposure to IPL?
The franchises are to be treated as a media property generating money over long time. The first season
would be most crucial as it would be a test whether there are takers for city rivalry.
Since, the 20-20 format has resurrected cricket in countries like England, the chances of it failing in India
are low.
ICL, promoted by Subhash Chandra, has completed two seasons successfully despite a quiet marketing
and constraints like availability of two-three stadiums only (which are not with BCCI). The finals generated a
TVR of 1.1 while most of its other matches generated TVRs of 0.7-0.9.
Amongst listed players, India Cements, Deccan Chronicle and Reliance Industries have exposure to IPL.
Our study of India Cements shows that the company would have a cash break even in the first year itself.
Most of these companies would look at listing its franchises in the next three-four years.
Our analysis shows that the there would be at least two to three successful teams. On a conservative basis,
the teams can earn annual revenues of Rs3bn in the next three years and OPMs of 20-25%. Successful
teams can fetch a valuation of 2-5x sales.
The downside risks include teams not performing like India’s early exit in the World Cup 2007. However, in
the IPL format, as all franchises are guaranteed to play the full league season and there is no marketing
risk associated with early elimination. The top Indian and international players are distributed among all
teams and hence they will participate in semi final and finals. This is expected to ensure that IPL has
audiences across the world interested in it till the very end.
We have taken India Cements Ltd as a case study. We believe that the company would be EBIDTA positive
in the first year. Investors looking to have an exposure to IPL should look at investing in India Cements Ltd.
On conservative basis, India Cements is likely to do turnover of Rs3bn from IPL in the next 3-4 years.
Assuming mcap/sales multiple of 2X, the value per share would be Rs20.
