Download or read book Bioscience Entrepreneurship In Asia Creating Value With Biology written by Paul S Teng and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2008-07-29 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When matched with Asian mega trends in culture, demographics and economics, BioScience products provide huge potential for exploitation and value creation in the coming years. This potential will be further enhanced by the declining capacity of the world's oil reserves to provide hydrocarbons for fuel and materials, and plants will become more important as bio-factories for basic ingredients to sustain human societies.Successful business models have been developed to harness the potential of BioScience to meet the demands for food, feed and organochemicals based on value creation and value capture mechanisms. These mechanisms are described in the book with real world case studies.As BioScience applications become more basic in nature, product development has increased in its complexity and requires special attention to obtain “freedom to operate”. Controversy about novel gene technologies threatens to derail the BioScience Revolution as public concern about safety issues and bioethics are fuelled by opposition groups to the new biology. This book describes communication techniques and messages to address such concerns and shows how early education programs can have high payoffs for companies that invest in novel products.
Download or read book Building Brands in Asia written by Tim Andrews and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-18 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a global business environment characterized by volatility and change, the formation of enduring relationships with consumers is paramount, but also notoriously difficult. Developing a unique brand personality is increasingly recognized as a key method to achieving the goal of customer loyalty. Focusing on the creation, development and management of brands in the world’s most dynamic, diverse and challenging business environment, Building Brands in Asia challenges the assumption that the continuing success of global brands in Asia is a given. The first part examines the challenge multinational corporations face in balancing brand consistency with local effectiveness. In the second part, attention shifts to Asian company brands, where the focus on branding has been relatively muted until now. Through a variety of sector and country contexts – from facilities management to football clubs, places to pop bands, home appliances to home weaving - we narrate simply and clearly the value, meaning, auditing, aligning, extending and architecture of brands from the likes of Haier, Ah Yee Taung, Axis Bank, OCS, Caltex, Manchester United and Thai Airways in markets as diverse as Japan, Laos, Korea and Singapore. Replete with anecdotes, interviews and case studies, Andrews and Chew provide an insightful, detailed and timely examination for all those interested in today’s primary corporate preoccupation set in the world’s most exciting marketplace.

Book excerpt: Professor Yoshihara, an international expert on the Southeast Asian economies, looks beyond the causes of the current crisis to discuss what can be done to build a dynamic economy in Asia to ensure prosperity for the future. He takes the viewpoint that the only way to achieve this is to promote integration into the global economy through free trade and free capital movement. He puts forward a convincing argument that government intervention is not the way forward and has in fact helped cause the present crisis. But a prosperous future is possible, he argues, by renovating institutions and adapting new attitudes. A most timely book with lessons for other parts of the world as well as for Southeast Asia.

Download or read book The Construction Sector in the Asian Economies written by MICHAEL. CHIANG ANSON (Y.H.. RAFTERY, JOHN.) and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-30 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collaborative project contributed to by all members of Asia Construct. It presents a comprehensive and up-to-date collection of data on the Asian construction sector forming a unique guide to construction economics in the following countries: Australia, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Sri Lanka and Vietnam, as well as Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region of China. The state of the construction sector is a good indicator of the overall health of an economy. In emerging economies, activity in the construction sector signifies resources being put into infrastructure development; in developed countries it demonstrates the extent to which development is maintained and indicates the general direction of the economy, for instance in housing starts. In the last fifteen years, the Asian region's construction industry has grown dramatically, and is poised to continue growing. Significant new trends in the construction sector in Asia are: larger private sector participation; increased vertical integration and increased foreign participation. These may be attributed to both the globalisation and de-regulation of markets. While such trends present opportunities worldwide, they have also highlighted the issues affecting sustainable development of the Asian construction industries. These issues are examined in the detailed analyses of the construction sector in each country over several years. The book constitutes a unique overall collection of the construction economy performances and characteristics of a sizeable sample of Asian nations as they exist at the turn of the century. It constitutes a record of lasting value to scholars of economics. Book jacket.
