Currently, there is a trend in the world community to form partnerships focused on cooperation between various business structures which are aimed at achieving a synergistic effect in the fulfillment of common economic interests. Modern business partnerships can be implemented in a variety of forms by using specific methods and approaches. At the same time, it has been noted that business partnerships are subject to transformation under the influence of the emergence of new technologies, methods and tools, one of which is the franchising system of relations. Taking into account the existing international experience of using franchising as an effective tool for building partnerships, further research is needed to more accurately define, systematize and quantify the strategic advantages that participants receive when forming business partnerships in modern conditions. The purpose of the paper is to identify and summarize the strategic advantages received by participants in the formation of business partnerships based on the franchising system of relations. Historical and bibliographic methods have been used to substantiate the theoretical provisions of the article. The applied part of the article is implemented with the use of modern electronic services that allow assessing the effectiveness of using the franchise system. This article examines possible forms of business partnerships, indicating specific examples of companies from Russian and foreign practice (IKEA, Tesla Motors, ACI Plastics, Sibur, Arya Home, METRO and others); a comparative analysis of the application of franchising in Russia and a number of leading foreign countries (the USA, the UK, France, Germany, Japan, etc.) has been carried out. The article presents the calculated characteristics of the project efficiency of a business partnership on the example of the Russian franchise «PIONER AUTO». The results presented in the paper show that the purchase of the abovementioned franchise will pay off in 1.5 years with further profit. The authors highlight the current trends in the development of global franchising in the context of the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 and highlight the main trends in 2021. According to the conducted research, the authors propose a model of franchising business partnership, systematize possible benefits of participants in a franchise business partnership on the basis of an earlier assessment of the possible effect.

This article provides an overview of current trends in the supply of higher-level skills in the UK. The author suggests that at higher levels increasing the supply of qualified people is unlikely to be an adequate measure to gain international competitive advantage, and that greater attention needs to given to increasing the quality (in terms of better and more relevant skills) and to stimulating demand for graduates in the wider economy. It is, she argues, difficult to justify expansion of the higher education sector in the absence of evidence of an increased requirement on the part of employers to match any growth in supply. The articles that follow in this ‘Special Focus’ on skills needs discuss specific aspects of the labour market for higher-level skills. Gill Court considers the labour market for graduates in the USA and the lessons for other countries of moving to a mass higher education system; Helen Lawton Smith looks at national laboratories and the effects that recent political decisions have had on their role in skill supply and skill renewal; and finally Gill Court and Nick dagger assess data on the recruitment of non-national staff to research centres, highlighting the extent of the European mobility of scientists and engineers.

Modern trends in Cybercrime in the criminal legislation of Russia and foreign countries are so multifaceted that sometimes it is difficult to distinguish between acts that directly violate information security, and invasions associated with computer technology in which the use of computer information systems is only one of the ways committing a crime. It is supported by the analytical material based on the study of criminal law engineered in the legislation of the UK, Australia, the USA, Germany and the CIS countries in view of the characteristic of illegal access to information technologies and (or) the misuse of information and telecommunication networks. Carried out in this article a comparative analyzes of the different criminal law as concentrated in one group, taking into account the identity of the object of the offence and “dissolved” in the structure of other criminal law provisions reveal the real “picture” of trends in the sphere of combating Cybercrime (against the constitutional rights and freedoms, property, area of economic activity, against public health and public morality, constitutional order and security of the state).

This chapter examines students’ views of learning with technologies through four related case studies that utilized online learning with marginalized young people. The studies were carried out in the UK, Austria, Ireland, Sweden and the USA with young people aged 14-21 who had dropped out of formal education. Ethnographic research was used but quantitative data was also gathered to contextualize the qualitative approach. The views and opinions of these young people were used to aid the development of online learning platforms and their content for use both with static computers and mobile devices. The results suggested that the young people embrace new technologies in such a way that they evidence deep thinking and deep learning. However, use of technologies in this way is not possible on a large scale within the existing school system. Further research should examine how the school system can better embrace the way that young people use Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) tools into their learning.

In order to continue to deliver outstanding medical care on the battlefield, the UK Defence Medical Services must continue to adapt, overcome and actively embrace change. One potential area is the rapid proliferation and sophistication of automated and remote systems such as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). UAVs are already used to deliver blood to remote military locations in Afghanistan and defibrillators to those that need them in the USA and Sweden. An area of future opportunity would be to facilitate rapid evacuation of wounded personnel from high intensity, high threat, remote and austere areas directly to specialist care. Such a capability would reduce threat to human life while allowing rapid extraction of casualties from high risk or inaccessible environments straight back to Role 3 care, all of which in these situations is either not possible or carries too much risk using conventional aerial assets. The article aims to highlight a potential future capability, stimulate debate and reflection, all of which is essential for innovation and future organisational development. The potential uses and benefits of UAVs are highlighted including both the challenges and rewards of utilising UAVs for casualty evacuation. Key benefits are reduced risk to human life, cost, ability to insert into areas conventional aircraft cannot and the rapidity of transfer. Challenges are likely to be airspace management, decisions on appropriate level of care to deliver during transit and ultimately user acceptability. The article also highlights that in order to maximise our ability to exploit new technologies, all arms and trades within the military must be involved in collective research and development. Furthermore, sensible corroboration with private companies will further enhance our ability to acquire products that best serve our needs.

The construction industry is experiencing changes in its processes and work methods, and the advancement of new technologies in recent decades has led to a new concept known as Construction 4.0, coined in 2016 in Germany. Since its definition is still diffuse, it was deemed necessary to conduct a review on the publications in this field to grasp how this concept is being understood. For that purpose, a bibliometric analysis was conducted among 260 research articles using seven keywords. The results reveal that the number of publications is growing exponentially, with the USA, the UK, and China being leaders in this field; besides, four technologies are essential to understand Construction 4.0 at present time: 3D printing, big data, virtual reality, and Internet of Things. The results of this review suggest that further reviews should be conducted every 3 years to grasp the rapid evolution of Construction 4.0.

An integral component of successful entrepreneurial activity is the establishment of strong relations with partners, the form and type of which varies depending on the sphere of activity and its scope. Considering that a prerequisite for a business partnership is constant communication, the style, and quality of which mainly determines the success of doing business, the development of business communication skills becomes an object of continuous research by both scientists and enterprise managers. The main goal of this study was to examine the role and the importance of business partnerships in Google Trends. Another goal of the study was to look at how often the term business partnership appears in Google books, with the help of Google Books Ngram Viewer, as well as in a database of Science Direct, with the help of Science Direct’s search function. The top year of the interest frequency of business partnership was 2004 in the Google Trends worldwide in business and industry categories. The bottom year of interest frequency was 2006. The geographic analysis revealed that most people searched in Botswana, in Jamaica, in Zimbabwe, in Ghana, and Uganda for the term business partnership. Interestingly, these countries are all located on the African continent, except Jamaica. Most people searched in Accra, in Nairobi, in Manila, in Quezon City, and Cebu for the term business partnership. The results of the bibliometric analysis of the relationship of business partnerships with other categories made it possible to conclude that people (mostly from the Philippines, Ethiopia, the USA, Canada, and Kenya) inquired about the joint venture and limited partnership. The conducted study revealed that from 1950 to 1970, the frequency of appearance of business partnership in the Google Books` database has been decreasing continuously. From 1972 the frequency has been growing gradually, then from 2006, the frequency has been decreasing gradually. The use of the term “business partnership” shows in the Science Direct a second-degree polynomial growing trend. Summarizing all these results, we can conclude that while people in developing countries in Africa and Jamaica were most sought for expressing business partnerships, people in developed countries were more interested in types of business partnerships. Keywords: Business partnership, Google Trends, Google Books Ngram Viewer, Science Direct, Time Series Analysis.
