The Ukrainian government and the international institutions are forward-looking in preparing for the post-war period and investing in the future of a highly promising country and its long-awaited modernization. From major infrastructure and green energy investments to exciting opportunities in IT, deep tech, industry, agrifood, and healthcare, we are talking about a trillion-dollar investment in the next years, exceeding 5 Marshall Plans.
We believe that now is the right time for foreign entities to actively establish themselves as valued and long-term business partners in the reconstruction and modernization efforts. This is the ideal moment to develop investment plans, participate in decision-making processes, and build credibility and presence.
Dubbed by The Art Newspaper America's free museum capital, Los Angeles is home to several free-admission museums, with visits totaling 3.5 million annually.
The Getty, The Broad, and the California African American Museum have had a free admission policy since their opening, joined recently by MOCA and OCMA who dropped their admission charges. The Hammer, who went free in 2014, reported a 15% increase in its annual attendance, from 210,000 to 240,000.
We analyze the interplay of two important problems for Art Museums:
1) How to diversify their sources of income
2) How to engage a less traditional audience, with lower income, younger, and/or more racially diverse
We intend to bring to light that it is possible to charge or increase an admission fee, and at the same time to increase the diversity of the attendance and the donation appeal.
The potential for disruption in the food and beverage industry parallels that of other sectors: for instance, the pharmaceutical industry has cut down its R&D, allowing innovation to thrive in smaller and younger biotech ventures - remarkably, these have been the ones to discover the COVID-19 vaccines; similarly, the automotive industry has faced disruption from an underdog that reinvented the entire industrial process from the ground up and launched an aggressive new marketing strategy.
Investors should no longer view established food brands as low-risk investments.
There is an opportunity for a new player to invest in:
1° redeveloping the industrial process from the ground up into more flexible, cost-effective, yet still scalable operations that offer diverse and evolving products;
2° nurturing direct consumer relationships through improved service, enhanced customer experiences, and loyalty; and
3° gaining insights to refine their industrial processes in exchange.
This is the time to monitor the industry for disruptions focused on industrial processes coupled with direct-to-consumer relationships - rather than just tracking new products and trends – and such disruptions could arise either from large corporations engaging in long-term industrial transformation or from a new, disruptive player entering the arena.
The IoT, Internet of Things, requires an OS, Operating System, that can do at the same time what a GPOS (General Purpose OS) can do and what a RTOS (Real-Time OS) can do. Current GPOSs rely on outdated cores that date back to UNIX and MS.
The emergence of the IoT, which is meant to reshape our world with smart buildings, smart cars, and more, is currently bottlenecked due to the lack of an adequate OS.
We show that it is time for a new greenfield OS to take us to the next level.
France offers one of the best fiscal systems for R&D, featuring both an R&D Tax Credit and an IP box (Intellectual Property box), a range of subsidies and accelerators, as well as brand-new innovation clusters to support your R&D activities, along with more affordable researchers and engineers.
US companies can greatly benefit from "friendshoring" their R&D to France.
Tech companies from emerging countries can also take advantage of friendshoring in France to gain better access to the EU market.
