Zif, Jehiel. "Choosing the Rate of Global Market Expansion by Entrepreneurial Firms." International Journal of Business Administration 11, no. 4 (June 10, 2020): 13. http://dx.doi.org/10.5430/ijba.v11n4p13.
Full textAbstract:
This paper outlines a rational for assessing the rate of global market expansion by entrepreneurial firms. Many entrepreneurial firms are dependent for their success on global market expansion. This is especially true about firms from relatively small countries. One can conceive of two major and opposing strategies for market expansion: market diversification and market concentration. The first strategy implies a fast penetration into a large number of markets in order to achieve fast growth and a first mover advantage. The second strategy is based on concentration of resources in a few markets and gradual expansion into new territories in order to test the response before committing too much effort. The paper is updating prior work on market expansion, taking into account entrepreneurial firms in the digital age. Firms with digital products don’t have to depend on foreign distribution networks and they have new opportunities for fast entry into foreign markets. We propose a concise framework for determining the preferred rate of market expansion utilizing two key variables: the potential response function of customers and the complexity of the product. The paper include a discussion of ways to assess customers’ response to entrepreneurial innovation and additional factors that can influence the market expansion decision.

Full textAbstract:
In thinking about convergent media and new digital technologies, the place of mobile services and technologies in the broader media policy field has not been addressed satisfactorily. This article reviews the beginnings of cellular mobiles in Australia to see what this piece of history can tell us about today's policy challenges. My case study revolves around the technology choices made by the federal government in the 1980s, especially the decision to essentially mandate the second-generation Global Standard for Mobiles (GSM) digital standard. I examine the structuring of the mobiles market with three initial licence-holders, and look at the implications of this as mobiles developed through the 1990s. The article offers a brief comparison with the New Zealand mobiles market, and also the promising yet ultimately ‘failed’ technology of the public-access cordless telephone. I conclude with some observations about how such critical examination of history can help to open up policy vistas about mobile media.

Full textAbstract:
The article reveals the essence and features of the development of the stock market in Ukraine. It was established that the vigorous activity of countries in the world financial markets means that they also face a risk of global financial turmoil (the so-called “domino effect”). It is determined that the impact of global financial instability on the country depends on the openness of its economy that will lead to significant external “shocks”. The possibility of providing effective influence on domestic stock market activity with taking into account the changing world situation, development of perfect trading strategies for each participant is substantiated. The conducted analysis of the world market conditions of stock markets in recent years has made it possible to assess the real risks for new participants in the stock market and become the basis for the development of an appropriate effective trading strategy. The practical significance of the results is that they allow for a measurable approach to assessing the existing risk when choosing one or another trading strategy to move to the world stock market.

Given the complexity and unpredictability of changes in the global environment, the choice and implementation of strategies for the development of business systems in international markets requires careful analysis and refinement. The paper clarified the concept of business system and developed a methodical approach to the analysis of business systems functioning conditions. The multiplicity of approaches to classification strategies requires the submission of a typology of strategies for the development of business systems. The theoretical justification for the study of the processes of organizational development of business systems is based on the provisions of the institutional approach, organizational development and strategic management. The result of the research is the procedure for choosing a company strategy in a global environment and organizational development strategy. To confirm the selected provisions, the results of the analysis of strategies for the organizational development of enterprises of the bearing industry are presented.

This study postulates that propose global proxy index is a significant conduit to evaluate the shocks in volatile stock markets i.e. PSX and SSE, alike. The two separate models i.e. Log-GARCH (1, 1) and ARMA-GARCH (1, 1) have been used along with the value at risk (V-a-R) @ 5% criteria for choosing best-fitted model. The study results showed Log-GARCH (1, 1) model proves to the best. This study results are not driven by political-level risks and thus independent study can be conducted to evaluate the detrimental consequences on investment opportunities under volatile environments.

Full textAbstract:
Decision-making of microgrids in the condition of a dynamic uncertain bidding environment has always been a significant subject of interest in the context of energy markets. The emerging application of reinforcement learning algorithms in energy markets provides solutions to this problem. In this paper, we investigate the potential of applying a Q-learning algorithm into a continuous double auction mechanism. By choosing a global supply and demand relationship as states and considering both bidding price and quantity as actions, a new Q-learning architecture is proposed to better reflect personalized bidding preferences and response to real-time market conditions. The application of battery energy storage system performs an alternative form of demand response by exerting potential capacity. A Q-cube framework is designed to describe the Q-value distribution iteration. Results from a case study on 14 microgrids in Guizhou Province, China indicate that the proposed Q-cube framework is capable of making rational bidding decisions and raising the microgrids’ profits.

The choice of retail store location is a very complex process, with many different stakeholders having interests in both the micro and macro locations. The goal of this work is to contribute to the better understanding of the different interests of corporative and public policies in choosing retail store locations, in order to enable more efficient and effective trade network development. After having slowed down as a consequence of the global economic crisis, the retail sector is experiencing strong expansion in the markets of transitional countries. Insufficient engagement of public policy in planning trade networks can violate market competition. An active government role in carrying out the policy of retail network development in transitional countries is necessary to maintain the level of competition and prevent big market players abusing their dominant position.

Full textAbstract:
As informal workers struggle to survive the current crisis, there is reason to believe that more strain would also be exerted on the already fragile sector in the post-crisis era. The implications of the COVID-19 outbreak for the informal economy will continue. Faced with a long crisis, the global economy would likely shrink demand for informal goods and services. The primary goal of this paper is to study consumer behavior during the pandemic, investigate government-implemented Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for the unorganized retail sector, and determine if consumers prefer to have goods delivered to their homes rather than visit retail stores. This paper collected information from a number of Indian customers who made unorganized retail transactions in New Delhi and NCR Region. The sample was taken from 700 citizens of New Delhi, India. The study found that product variety, digital payment, scheduling, free delivery and lower speed have a significant effect on customer behavior. In addition, SOPs do not influence consumer behavior. The main reasons for choosing a specific channel are simple availability, security, less hassle, and compliance with all laws. The pandemic led to a renewed trust in the local Kirana shop, with new clients visiting metro and non-metro shops locally. The system in Kirana has changed from physical sales to digital aviation because of the pandemic.

Full textAbstract:
Research background: The research, which is the subject of the paper, is based on the global expansion of the use of electronic access control systems using biometric data for user verification. Due to the globalization of products from foreign markets to Slovakia, there is a competition between suppliers. The disadvantage is that organizations that are considering procuring an electronic access control system focus their attention only on its price. Globalization and global use have neglected the skills gap between European, American, and Asian markets. Purpose of the article: The paper will aim to point out, through a case study, the financial and functional differences of electronic access control systems. In the case study, a comparison of three different systems with the possibility of procurement on the European, American, and Asian markets will be performed on the building - administrative building. Methods: The article will mainly use methods such as the global method and the optimization model of the financial plan. As well as a case study, the cooperation of achieved results and analysis of possibilities of foreign markets. Findings & Value added: The results achieved by the paper will be globally usable in the conditions of European countries. These will be the conclusions of a case study that will point to the appropriateness of choosing an electronic access control system using biometric features in a standard office building. We can also consider the creation of a project budget usable for organizations as one of the added values.

Larry Neal, How it all began: the monetary and financial architecture of Europe during the first global capital markets, 1648–1815The Treaty of Westphalia created the modern nation-state system of Europe and set the stage for the long-term success of financial capitalism. The new sovereign states experimented with competing monetary regimes during their wars over the next century and two-thirds while they extended and perfected the financial innovations in war finance developed during the Thirty Years War. The Dutch maintained fixed exchange rates, the French insisted on exercising monetary independence, while the English placed priority on free movement of international capital. In struggling with the trilemma of choosing among the goals of maintaining fixed exchange rates, monetary independence and free movement of capital, the governments of early modern Europe learned many valuable lessons. By the time of the Napoleonic wars, the innovations that emphasised reliance on financial markets rather than on financial institutions proved their superiority.

Full textAbstract:
The object of this research was to develop an international market screening methodology which selects highly attractive markets, allowing for the ranges in diversity amongst organisations, countries and products. Conventional business thought is that, every two to five years, dynamic organisations which conduct business internationally should decide which additional foreign market or markets to next enter. If they are internationally inexperienced, this will be their first market; if they are experienced, it might be, say, their 100th market. How should each organisation select their next international market? One previous attempt has been made to quantitatively test which decision variables, and what weights, should be used when choosing between the 230 countries of the world. The literature indicate that a well-informed selection decision could consider over 150 variables that measure aspects of each foreign market's economic, political, legal, cultural, technical and physical environments. Additionally, attributes of the organisation have not been considered when selecting the most attractive short-list of markets. The findings presented in the dissertation are that 30 criteria accounted for 95 per cent of variance at cross-classification rates of 95 per cent. The weights of each variable, and the markets selected statistically as being the most attractive, were found to vary with the capabilities, goals and values of the organisation. This frequently means that different countries will be best for different organisations selling the same product. A

Full textAbstract:
Investment is no longer a matter of individual savers directly choosing which shares or bonds to buy. Rather, most of their money flows through a ‘chain’: an often extended sequence of intermediaries. What goes on in that chain is of huge importance: the world’s investment managers, who are now almost as well paid as top bankers, control assets equivalent in value to around a year of total global economic output. In Chains of Finance, five social scientists (four of whom have worked in investment management) discuss the ways in which the intermediaries in the chain influence each other, channel the flows of savers’ money, enhance investment decisions, and form audiences for each other’s performances of financially competent selves. The central argument of the book is that investment management is fashioned profoundly by the opportunities and constraints this chain creates. Whether chains constrain or enable, however, they always entangle, tying intermediaries to each other—silently and profoundly shaping the investment management industry. Chains of Finance is a novel analysis that will make students, social scientists, financial professionals and regulators look at the workings of financial markets in a new light. A must-read for anyone looking for insights into the decision-making processes of investment managers and those influenced by and working for them.

AbstractNot different from many other, larger companies, marketing and sales processes at SMEs have undergone constant changes. The chapter details how SMEs dealt with the tension between marketing and sales, how they differentiated in B2B vs. B2C environments. For B2C companies, global brand building becomes important. All firms, regardless of industry environment, had constantly professionalized the marketing process. Choosing a product or company name can be crucial in a global environment. In the B2B environment, marketing and selling differ from the consumer markets and are focused more on application-driven sales, key account systems, and reliance on lead customers. Examples from adopting key account systems and enlisting lead customers are provided.

Chapter 9 further develops economic evolution powered by informational selection. We observe that in economic evolution, institutions play an important role, and many new issues not encountered in Natural Selection appear. Economic evolution often does not take place by pure selection (choosing or eliminating), but by building an elaborate institution. For giant institutions such as global platforms, the numbers from which to choose are probably very few, but selection is nevertheless always present, as it operates on the smaller units. An important barrier against informational selection is communication costs, which steadily trend downwards and include collecting, transmitting, ranking, sorting, filtering, and analyzing.

This chapter examines the motives for Camorra mobility. Camorristi decide when to leave and where to go in a three-stage process: first, local push factors propel them to leave Naples, then two phases of global pull factors influence their choice of destination. Push factors are individual and personal, emanating from the local context: being wanted by the judiciary and the police, thus forcing “the escape,” and a fear of gang warfare and being murdered by a criminal rival. Pull factors are structural circumstances that influenced camorristi's exact choice of destination. Indeed, if a Camorra boss did move away from Naples and needed to spend time in a particular location, he would have specific motives for choosing his destination. Three global-structural factors were initially identified: familiar networks, profitable markets, and vulnerable law-enforcement regimes.

This chapter examines the impact of culture on the organizational and information technology infrastructures of global competitors while considering the role business strategy plays on both infrastructures. Information technology is increasingly becoming a focal point of the firm’s business strategy for internally derived competitive advantage, as well as a means for linking to the firm’s supply chain partners. Prior research has suggested that when managers consider how culture impacts the information flow and structure of the organization and its supply chain partners, a more effective “fit” between business strategies and performance results. A conceptual framework is proposed comparing national cultures and two important organizational factors—components of organizational structures and components of information systems. Specifically, the framework helps explain how organizational structures and information technology will vary based on national culture within the confines of the firm’s chosen competitive strategy. Examples from three cultures are used to demonstrate how international managers and researchers may better understand the impact of cultural differences on the operations of firms choosing to compete in international markets. Finally, propositions are offered for future empirical testing by information management researchers.

In the year 2015, it was estimated that more than 5 million students were studying outside their home countries. After the fall of Saddam Hussein's regime in 2003 Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) of Iraq in its attempt to raise the standard of education started its scholarship program known as Human Capacity Development Program (HCDP) in 2010. This policy advocated KRG's open-door policy toward international markets in an attempt to reintegrate its higher education institutions (HEIs). The current socio-political conditions of the world have led to a tension between university's commitment to racial/religious equality and its racial profiling strategies. The vetting and surveillance of Muslim students is preventing many students from gaining access to higher education globally, thus thwarting student's mobility. The key focus of this chapter will be to explore the plight of these students and their choosing of alternate means of study.

Various development objectives are worthy, but one objective merits special attention: reducing the scourge of absolute economic misery in the world. This study focuses on an important but relatively underemphasized approach to poverty reduction: helping the poor earn more in the labor market for the work they do, so that they can buy the goods and services they need to move up out of poverty. The core of the study is divided into three sections: defining the global poverty challenge and the world’s employment problem, presenting policy options for improving employment outcomes for the poor, and suggesting ways of choosing which policy interventions are most promising for poverty reduction.

Full textAbstract:
Uncertainty characterizes the marriage market today, fostered by job insecurities that have accompanied global free-market economic expansion and the surge in options it produced. The new chronic uncertainty has slowed marriage, even though the opposite scenario could have occurred. It happened this way because uncertainty is, in part, a conviction that you don’t yet have what it takes to merit getting married—a reflection of the capstone mentality. Parental divorce adds to uncertainty, fostering anxiety among young adults that they, too, may not have what it takes to stay together. Emerging technologies—social-media and online dating—boost options and unwittingly diminish relationship confidence. As a result of heightened uncertainty, some Christians are choosing to cohabit. But they are not seeking to rewrite the rules about Christian marriage. Living together before marriage, however, almost always contributes to a diminished life of faith, even if only temporarily.

Full textAbstract:
The zero moment of truth (ZMOT) is a concept related to marketing that is changing gradually the traditional strategy used to select a product or service offered in the market. This concept has gained popularity among consumers due to the internet, but ZMOT has been barely analyzed during the selection process of prospective students choosing an international HEI (higher education institution). The objective of this chapter is to reflect how the combination of ZMOT, FMOT (first moment of truth), and SMOT (second moment of truth) is a successful strategy for global universities based on digital marketing to attract prospective students. An educational procedure that can be followed by technology-driven international HEIs, and by universities aiming to attract prospective students. In this sense, the authors propose a brand-new concept entitled PSA (potential for student attraction) that they apply to two campuses (Guadalajara and Mexico City) of the Tecnológico de Monterrey, Mexico.

Analysis of the significance of structural and spatial similarities aims to identify homogeneous categories of real estate markets on the basis of the urban features of the area. Real estate markets play an increasingly important role in the global economy and investment, which is why the reliable view of residential market area became an essential tool in the process of investment planning. The positions of particular cities that will be developed by themselves according to established criteria can be crucial when choosing an investment location, and can affect the range of influence of the central site for the entire region. The aim of the research is to conduct the comparative analysis of the condition of residential market area in relation to their urban features. The social, spatial, economic and residential factors will be analysed taking into consideration their exogenous structure. The assessments of coherence and diversification of esidential markets similarities in terms of their mutual location will be shown in the article. The developed methodology will be presented on the example of the largest residential markets centers in Poland. Due to the dynamic and complex nature of the information related to real estate (in various residential regions), and increase the objectivity of the results, the assumptions of data mining analysis and GiS tools will be used.

Aim/Purpose: Educational stakeholders have little understanding of digital educational badg-ing. Background A current overview of the developing educational badging ecosystem, key terminology, advantages, challenges, and examples of badge utilization. Methodology: Illustrative case study Contribution: Creates a record of the developing digital badge industry providing insights to educational stakeholders. Findings: Highly dynamic industry, developing unique terminology, may improve access to higher education, reduce credential fraud, decrease concerns about vague transcripts, and support customized learning. The challenges include a crowded market with many providers, establishing standards, and determining the value proposition of the credential. Recommendations for Practitioners: Before engaging in a long-term badging strategy, understand the badging system as well as the advantages and challenges of this innovation. Recommendations for Researchers: Consider the profound shift offered by the badging system and the relationship that digital educational badges have on grounded theory related to credentials such as human capital development theory, signaling theory, and credentialism theory. Impact on Society: Digital badging marks a paradigm shift in how we think about formal human development; from one that is institution-centric and bounded to one that is learner-centric and unbounded. Future Research: As a new innovation, there is a wide range of needed research. Most current research involves motivational impacts on K-12 learners. Based on this investigation, research regarding impact on access, pedagogy, security, credential information granularity, case studies about choosing a badging platform, value proposition, and the development of standards is needed.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Active Noise and Vibration Control (ANVC) technology is a proven solution for noise and vibration problems in aircraft. The challenges in commercializing this solution range from the development issues of choosing the best actuation, sensor, and control technology to obtaining sufficient flight test time and satisfying FAA requirements. This paper examines significant case histories in the progression of the Lord active vibration control program from conception to market. Throughout the development program, several important discoveries were made regarding the performance, reliability, and economics of Active Isolation Systems (AIS) in jet aircraft. First, practical speaker-based solutions cannot achieve global acoustic noise cancellation for engine tones above about 200 Hz. A comparatively small array of structural actuators placed in the dominant transmission path, such as in or near the engine mounts, are capable of global cancellation in the cabin up to at least 500 Hz. Second, the performance is generally better when cabin microphones are used as error sensor inputs because the AIS control system can compensate for flanking paths better than if accelerometers are used as error sensors. Third, when the actuators are placed in the dominant transmission path and close to the vibration source, the control system will simultaneously achieve global acoustic noise reduction in the cabin and vibration reduction in the aircraft structure without affecting the engine casing vibration levels.

Nowadays, a lot of companies are faced with the urgency of change in their daily operations. This is especially relevant in modern business development conditions when constant changes are considered critical for a company to adapt to market requirements and the global economic situation. The paper presents the audit of the most famous change management models. Change management is an endless cycle, and it requires a sound vision, plan, time, aptitudes, inspiration, monetary and automatic endeavors to execute the change. Successful change management is a venture and contributes to a hierarchical turn of events. There are a few models of change management available and choosing the right change management model is vital for leading or guiding productive and smooth transitions. The main goal of this paper is to describe the main differences between the well-known change management models by reviewing the relevant literature. The analysis led to the conclusion that it is impossible to pick up an optimal approach to change management. Every approach to change management attracts attention to various aspects of this problem; however, they do not exclude but complement each other.

Full textAbstract:
The article introduces the concept of territorial marketing and its reflection in the attractiveness of Zurich territory. Even though the process of globalization brings benefits, it also challenges the small territories to compete in the global market. Regarding regional development, the concept helps to maximize the level of the attractiveness of the city, thus economic growth. In general, territorial marketing strategies are quite successful in innovative regions, as well as cities. The primary reason for choosing such a city is precisely its innovative potential and strategy, as the city council effectively works with elements of territorial marketing and develops its territory sustainably. The article aims to analyze the relevance of the concept in the city of Zurich, applying the method of secondary data analysis. Zurich is a representative city that the implementation of the concept of territorial marketing may increase the attractiveness of the territory. The city council works effectively with important segments and knows its preferences. It uses local entrepreneurs, employees and residents, visitors, potential investors, and international companies to identify its target groups. The city's priorities are the development and cooperation of local entities, innovative activities, and attractiveness for potential external investors, which brings opportunities to the city.

AbstractThe past two decades have seen the development and expansion of an approach to wellbore completions that has resulted in unlocking significant reserves from previously disregarded resource, and has been responsible for the North American shale gas ‘revolution’ or ‘evolution’ (depending upon how you see it). However, this approach has faced significant complications to appropriate, successful and economic deployment, when attempts have been made to export this process overseas.This ground-breaking completion approach was achieved as a direct result of the combination of two well-known and widely applied industry technologies, from distinct disciplines: namely horizontal lateral drilling and propped hydraulic fracture stimulation. This simple combination is referred to by a number of different designations which are used to describe the process, but it is most commonly referred to simply as multi-stage horizontal well hydraulic fracturing.The North American success story has been primarily accomplished through the application of two distinct variants of this technique, split by fundamental approach to the stage sequencing: namely the Plug & Perf approach and the Open Hole Multi-Stage completion system (typically ball-activated fracture ports). The Open Hole Multi-Stage completion system has typically been applied selectively, with a bias towards clastic formations, whereas Plug & Perf has been more widely applied and almost exclusively dominates the shale completion environment.This paper will describe the engineering aspects of the multi-stage horizontal well hydraulic fracturing process, as well as those particular North America conditions and deliberate compromises that have been made, in order to encourage this approach to become established and develop further. Such analysis will include a holistic approach to the global market conditions, in order to better understand the local and regional factors that have played such a fundamental role in North American success, many of which have been erroneously overlooked elsewhere. This paper will investigate a number of these key issues and factors, particularly related to completion and reservoir interaction that should be considered carefully when choosing to export such techniques to new areas of application outside of North America. This will include an understanding of the key data that should be acquired, from the early exploration and subsequent appraisal wells, so that appropriate decisions can be made efficiently.
