More in Global Economic

While real global economic growth during calendar year 2009 will be negative, a solid rebound seems on tap during 2010, with real growth exceeding 3.0%. Better performance is expected during -2011. Even so, rising unemployment during 2010 in many developed and emerging markets will, unfortunately, be the norm.

United States of American – New York

The American economy returned to growth during 2009′S third quarter, a welcome departure from an extended period of painful economic contraction. While the return to growth is obviously a positive development, it does not suggest that problems with housing, commercial real estate, rising unemployment and continuing job losses are behind us.

The 3.5% real annual growth pace during July to September compared to a 6.4% real annual rate of decline during 2009′s first quarter and a 0.7% real annual rate of decline during the second quarter.

In Person With Founder of Techno-preneurs Association of Malaysia (TeAM)

More in Entrepreneurship

In July 2001, a team of budding entrepreneurs in Malaysian banded together under the banner of the Techno-preneurs Association of Malaysia (TeAM) led by an inspired young man named Nazrin Hassan. Their aim — To find a solution for many promising young entrepreneurs that have brilliant ideas but cannot see them through into commercialization due to a lack of funding. The alternative then was venture capital seed funding which offered cash but tied these entrepreneurs down, with many conditions that were not favorable to their business plans.

What the TeAM members knew then was, without real support and financial assistance; many promising techno-preneurs would not be able to develop their ideas sufficiently to reach commercialization. Without the generation of new technology ideas, Malaysia’s drive towards the New Economy and high-technology space was bound to stagnate due to the lack of access to funding in the marketplace, despite a strong push for the development of local talent to spearhead the growth of the Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) project by then Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad.

Realistic To Make Your Way Success

More in Business Analysis

One simply cannot mistake the new face of EON Bank for anything else. It is the local bank with the bright orange signage. This is just one example of an extensive re-branding exercise that started in September last year to shake off common misconceptions about the bank and its services.

Slightly more than one year later, the exercise seems to have met its objectives. Today the bank has received the best commendation of its success, deep from within its loyal customers that have been banking with them over the long haul. These customers have noticed improvements in service quality, banking speed of transactions and efficiency comparable with the best International standards. That is certainly not bad for a bank once known only for its hire purchase financing of Proton cars!
