Book excerpt: Competition is becoming ever fiercer in the chemical industry as new firms from such emerging economies as China and India enter the market and as technological advances, potential new regulations, and rising energy and feedstock costs shrink profit margins. Yet chemical firms are also discovering that cooperation, even between competitors, is necessary for meeting today¿s challenges. Today¿s market dilemmas and innovation systems are too complex for any one org. Successful networks must include competitors working in partnership. This report describes a variety of partnerships among chemical and materials firms that combine cooperation and competition in novel, forward-looking ways.

Book excerpt: Squeezed on all sides -- including from raw material costs (which are at unprecedented highs), narrowing access to feedstocks, and growing competition in commodity markets -- chemical firms must create new high-value materials and services to survive and profit. This report summarizes the second annual CHF-SCI Innovation Day and suggests solutions for current challenges based on this forum in which scientists and technology managers gather to explore frontier areas for the chemical industry. The industry¿s future, the authors argue, lies in a strategic ¿wager¿ on disruptive technologies, balanced by incremental steps to develop new feedstocks and manufacturing processes that yield novel materials with less environmental impact.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Referring to the U.S. and German chemical industry the book presents structures, processes and organization of corporate innovation and research and their interdependencies and dependency on "technology intelligence". Using selected cases and comparisons for the U.S. and Germany approaches to managing innovation are elaborated in terms of generic processes and well-defined configurational settings which may guide actions. It provides a detailed description of the current status and innovation essentials of the U.S. and German chemical industry, but includes also historical perspectives. The book elaborates systematically intelligence as the basis and key prerequisite for continuous innovation, for research and development and sustainable growth of technology-oriented companies and provides an integrative approach for innovation, corporate chemical research and technology intelligence. Focusing innovation on an information and intelligence problem allows presenting architectural and organizational characteristics and models for "technology intelligence-oriented organizations". The special role of information technology for such an organization is exemplified by presenting the model-compatible business, systems and technical architectures of an operational database-centric intelligence system. Generally the book extends the "what and why" to the "how".

Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Economics - Innovation economics, grade: 1,0, Athens University of Economics and Business, course: BWL - Innovationsmanagement, language: English, abstract: That the global chemical industry with a worth of $2 trillion has an enormous impact on economy, society and the environment, is undisputed. However, with regard to the nowadays unstable economic and political situation worldwide, an increasing rate of development in science and technology and higher customer demands, chemical companies have to struggle for competitive advantages. A key factor for a company to maintain its market position and even enlarge it is successful innovation. Furthermore, the direction of innovation plays a major role for sustainable growth of a company. Nowadays, the basis of innovation in chemical industry is defined by sustainability and environmental protection due to climate change, pollution and therefore stricter regulations. But of course every manufacturing company, as most of the companies in chemical industry manufacture, searches for ways to produce more efficient, faster and cheaper. So might there be a way to combine both desires and transform the chemical industry to be more sustainable and increase their economic benefit at the same time? Even if one can hardly imagine, "green" chemistry is about to achieve both of these goals and leads to transformational changes in chemical industry due to "green" innovations in various chemical fields. Pike Research, a market research and consulting firm, predicts that "green chemistry represents a market opportunity that will grow from $2.8 billion in 2011 to $98.5 billion in 2020" and, which is also extremely promising for chemical companies, that green chemicals will save industry $65.5 billion by 2020. Various chemical inventions and technological developments, for example in the expanding field of catalysis, set the basis for the production of new, less-hazardous and mult

Book excerpt: INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER A powerful and persuasive discussion about economics, freedom, and the relationship between the two, from today's brightest economist. In this classic discussion, Milton and Rose Friedman explain how our freedom has been eroded and our affluence undermined through the explosion of laws, regulations, agencies, and spending in Washington. This important analysis reveals what has gone wrong in America in the past and what is necessary for our economic health to flourish.

Book excerpt: "An eloquent and essential correction to contemporary discussions of the American working class."—The Nation From the ongoing issues of poverty, health, housing, and employment to the recent upsurge of lethal police-community relations, the black working class stands at the center of perceptions of social and racial conflict today. Journalists and public policy analysts often discuss the black poor as “consumers” rather than “producers,” as “takers” rather than “givers,” and as “liabilities” instead of “assets.” In his engrossing history, Workers on Arrival, Joe William Trotter, Jr., refutes these perceptions by charting the black working class’s vast contributions to the making of America. Covering the last four hundred years since Africans were first brought to Virginia in 1619, Trotter traces the complicated journey of black workers from the transatlantic slave trade to the demise of the industrial order in the twenty-first century. At the center of this compelling, fast-paced narrative are the actual experiences of these African American men and women. A dynamic and vital history of remarkable contributions despite repeated setbacks, Workers on Arrival expands our understanding of America’s economic and industrial growth, its cities, ideas, and institutions, and the real challenges confronting black urban communities today.

Take an evidence-based approach to the neurorehabilitation of adult and pediatric patients across the lifespan that reflects the APTA’s patient management model and the WHO’s International Classification of Function (ICF). You’ll study examination and interventions from the body structure/function impairments and functional activity limitations commonly encountered in patients with neurologic disorders. Then, understanding the disablement process, you’ll be able to organize the clinical data that leads to therapeutic interventions for specific underlying impairments and functional activity limitations that can then be applied as appropriate anytime they are detected, regardless of the medical diagnosis.
