Nothing Standard About This New Category
| |
| A confusing name for decaffeinated regulation. So goodbye Cadbury, and now that we've all digested the threat of job cuts and the loss of independence of a great British brand, we can turn our attention to the real concern of Curly Wurly et al being renamed. Some of us of a certain age of course still rue the rebranding of Opal Fruits and fear that long-loved Cadbury brands will have their names changed to something that begs an exclamation mark after them like Starburst(!). |

| Startup and Early Stage entrepreneurs must compete for the attention and limited capital available from angel investors and early stage venture capitalists. In many ways it can be compared to a Beauty Contest. The business fundamentals of a successful business are in place, but to be "picked" from the other companies also pitching those investors, that company must be the most attractive to that investor, that judge who will decide if the company qualifies to go to the next stage in the process. |

Abstract - E-COMMERCE FOR DEVELOPMENT: PROSPECTS AND POLICY ISSUES
| |
| In this paper, we analyse the potential contribution of the Internet and its commercial
application to the development process in poor countries. In historical perspective, the
Internet has diffused at a far faster rate than earlier generations of communications
technology: from 1990 to early 2000, the estimated number of Internet users grew more
than tenfold to roughly 300 million, affecting the way in which people communicate with

focus is on the opportunities e-commerce offers to small-scale entrepreneurs in developing
countries and the challenges they face in exploiting e-commerce’s potential. |
