Event Location: Lefkosia / Nikosia

The second meeting of the Social Entrepreneurship Conference will be held in the capital of Cyprus, here at the Amphitheatre of the University of Nicosia. The Commissioner of the Environment and speakers from all around the European continent (practitioners, policy makers, and educators) meet with social entrepreneurs/enterprises from Cyprus to face their current environmental problems.

More… Update ASAP

Networking in the South

Aside

Networking in the South – new ideas born in crisis time.

#Coaching and #training are magic keywords. Looking once at the South of Europe we can learn how creative people try to overcome the ongoing crisis in a smart way. People recognize the less efficient thoughts that usually remain in those two industries: the political sector and old style businesses.

However, the common use of links to Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter respectively the installation of promotional videos in active networks in Asia Pacific – especially in mega cities like Hong Kong SAR, Shanghai City or in other cities of the Chinese neighborhood, on the Indian subcontinent – it seems to have better growth potentials.

Using the twitter account #meetropool to ‘offer revolutionary|attention grab|short video informative |concise |distributed quick |effective across social port |megafon message to home|connect globe biz’ might give you good ideas how it can work well for you, too.

All about a special New Year tradition throughout and in the world

Posted on by

We have seen this year many fireworks beginning in New Zealand, Sydney, Hong Kong or Berlin.

It seem to be the ‘business as usual’as every year! However, the world has changed.

Imagine if a father with his son could no longer stand what they see and hear in the media about the consequences for the victim and what it must have suffered until it’s death.

The brutal massacre of an unknown proud woman, planning to marry the next month in a country of dream colours, it is India.

What about the mother and the sister or the pregnant women of a girl, thinking of the future and how to educate their children towards a better world together in partnership with boys?

Endless shame has overcome one of the most colourful states in the Asian continent. The brutal massacre happened at a place where the former leader of a great nation, Mahatma Gandhi, was assassinated on January 30, 1948, almost 3 years after WW2.

What would we have said to such events happening in our countries? Could we imagine more than 80 reports from raped victims in just 24 hours, which is estimated round about 30.000 per year ONLY in New Delhi protests?

Stop Rape Globally, a special video for India, the co-production of Bernd Suhm and Ulrich H. Kiefer gives some possible answers.

Possible solutions how to handle the situation in very critical situations when a drastard has chosen a victim: let us focus on that drastard in front of you – they fear opponents.

I’m sure, we’ll be able in one year to celebrate a better ‘Happy New Year’ tradition in 2014!

Año Nuevo. Bonne Année. Buon Anno. Buono Anni. Happy New Year. Próspero Año Nuevo. Xínnián kuàilè.

About Fiscal Cliff | Stock Markets

Aside

After counting down the Euro currency, next the US Dollar $ might fear busy stock markets days: black Friday versus Happy New Year? The threat of higher taxes for Americans might lead to the necessary cut of deficit spending: this is good news for investment in new projects, especially for decision makers from key economic areas in the Pearl River delta or the Bohai Bay Economic RIM. As a result, citizens from the metropolitan zones like, Beijing, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Hangzhou, Hong Kong, Kunming, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Tianjin or Xi’an draw conclusions now.

About Sha Rén Kuáng thought | The Indiscrimate Killing

We are all with you… the families hit by the ‘Sha Rén Kuáng’-shooting* in a school in Newtown / USA. Let us pray for a better future now.

*The transcription of the 3 Chinese characters ‘Sha Rén Kuáng’ expresses firstly “the verb to kill, secondly a human being and finally the adjective ruinously’. We can summarize it as ‘indiscriminate killing’.

Although the situation looks for the moment so dark now, candles from a holy cathedral in Marseille shall lead you ways for a better future.

Finally we can learn an important lesson: better share the wealth of peace in love with your neighbours, stop fighting: prevent us from crime/weapons.

Who is who?

Aside

Being asked why more people are visiting this blog… one of the reasons can be explained by the invention of some smart electronic devices that sell well in Asia Pacific and especially in China.

Browser histories reveal: the actual winners seem to be software codes like base, content, jum, kits, open, privacy, search, sources, web, and window.

Review on print media

Report from Europe / Strasbourg-Ortenau District / Freiburg / Black Forest / Germany

Sometimes it might occur to see seldom species like an otter in a natural environment. It is rare, but it’s possible. Not long ago an otter showed up for a few seconds in the metropolitan city Strasbourg: too fast to take a photo. Aware, that its appearance might attract curious people like photographers, it vanished quickly for ever.

This happened today also to a well know company in Germany. Focusing on printing on paper, the last edition of a printed media closed after 13 years. Althought sold out quickly, this success might find soon its next victim especially in those European crisis times, where energy and material (colour and paper) has become too expensive in general. Labour represents various costs, but the innovation has come to an end more than a decade ago.

Offering much more attractive conditions for their advertisement seemed to be a problem today. However, the better solution for the future is a very flexible to handle ‘online news services’ as the preferred business model in the world wide web.
