Case Study: Desert Storm And The Entrepreneurial Spirit
Get PDFThis case is appropriate for any college level entrepreneurial class. The purpose of this case study is to explore the business experience of an Iraqi entrepreneur, and share it with the community of entrepreneurs worldwide. The paper traces the journey of Mr. Sammy Awad, the entrepreneur, from the 1991 Gulf war to the fall of Baghdad to Coalition Forces in 2003. The Gulf war caused widespread devastation to the Iraqi economy, and large scale unemployment. On the other hand, the war created lucrative market opportunities for entrepreneurs, including Mr. Awad who, in a few years time was capable of moving from being a conscript in the Iraqi armed forces with a trivial salary, to a taxicab driver, and finally to an owner of a fleet of taxicabs. His stamina, determination, and foresight make him a role model for young entrepreneurs around the world

Get PDFThis study aims to determine the financial management and business development applied to Sumbawa Sustainable Forest Honey MSMEs.

The results of the study show how financial management and business development are implemented by MSMEs, namely the behavior of financial management that is still simple, seen from the way the financial records do not meet the standards, while in developing business opportunities the strengths and opportunities of MSMEs are quite large, this is seen from the analysis of IFAS and IFAS factors obtained through SWOT analysis, after obtaining opportunity points of 0.80, threat 1.20, strength of 1.60 and weakness of 1.10 UMKM positions in courtesies diagrams occupying IV quadrant positions namely diversification into strategy what must be done is to maintain customer or customer satisfaction, by improving service, quality, promotion and innovation. improve product quality to compete with other honey
A journey to entrepreneurship: Converting a dream into reality - A case study
Get PDFAbstract. Owning one’s own business is the realization of the dreams of many ambitious young men and women. However, business ownership has its rewards and challenges. The rewards are often financial and non-financial. It is one of the best means of wealth creation, but it can be a big disappointment and could have disastrous consequences if the entrepreneur chooses the wrong product/service, does not prepare a complete and realistic business plan, or is not adequately prepared to react to unanticipated difficulties and challenges. The subject in this case, Uchechi Tatsa, is contemplating starting an import business, and trying to prepare the necessary plans that would be appealing enough to a venture capital firm to provide needed seed money. Thus, this case focuses on the planning phase in entrepreneurships, and the ability of a young entrepreneur, with no prior business experience, to create and run a new venture. It is written for potential entrepreneurs and students in Entrepreneurship and introductory business classes.Keywords.

Evaluation of mechanical properties of textile concrete subjected to different environmental exposures
No full textIncludes bibliographical references (leaves 310-327).Within the last decade, a new class of civil engineering materials referred to as High Performance Fibre Reinforced Cementitious Composites (HPFRCC) has been developed. As a subset in this new field, additions of polypropylene (PP) fibres, in the form of woven textile fabrics, have proved most successful as reinforcement to cementitious matrices, leading to the development of a novel composite material: so called "Textile Concrete" (TC). Although the strength and modulus of PP are not very high, careful design through the appropriate placement and high fibre volume fraction of a textile format, has led to sufficient strength and stiffness, while at the same time high toughness has been achieved. In particular the development of a fibrillated core fibre to which is attached an outer layer of ultrasonically welded, or bonded "fluffy" PP fibres, has been most successful, and is a unique feature. These outer fluffy layers provide excellent physical bonding characteristics to the cement matrix, thus overcoming the intrinsic hydrophobic nature and otherwise weak matrix bonding of PP fibres. In South Africa where TC has found ready application, the composite is produced from a fine grained cementitious matrix and a PP textile commercially known as CemForce
