Digital Transformation in the Nigerian Small Business Sector

Digital transformation is now impacting businesses in both the developed and developing worlds, and this chapter examines this phenomenon in the small business sector in Nigeria. Adopting an interpretivist philosophy, the methodology combines a survey of small business enterprises (SBEs) with in-depth case studies of three Nigerian companies. Ten critical influencing factors are identified, and a model (Engage-Deploy-Exploit-Transform – EDET) is developed and applied to the case studies to assess the status of digital transformation. The influencing factors provide a checklist for SBEs embarking on digital transformation projects, and the model can be used to assess progress and identify new opportunities for digital transformation at the business process level. The authors believe this to be a useful contribution to the growing literature in this field that can be used by both researchers and practitioners in similar developing-world contexts.

IMPLEMENTASI PEMBUKUAN SEDERHANA PADA UMKM ANNA COLLECTION DI DESA PANGKALAN KECAMATAN PLERED KABUPATEN CIREBON

MSMEs, or Micro, Small, and Medium-Sized Enterprises, are a critical component of Indonesia's economy. Each year, the development of MSMEs in Indonesia accelerates, as seen by their increasing contribution to GDP and workforce absorption by the MSME sector. However, some MSMEs continue to be constrained by accounting issues that have not been well organized and planned, resulting in a different final profit and loss value in accordance with the fact that there are issues with accounting financial management, which records each cash flow transaction in an organized and directed manner. MSME Anna Collection is one of the MSMEs with potential but has not yet developed. The Ana Collection MSME's bookkeeping is still unstructured and undirected, hence in the absence of a profit and loss statement for the business.

Diseño de un procedimiento de actuación en accidentes de turismo activo (Design of an action procedure in active tourism accidents)

El Turismo activo ha venido siendo un sector empresarial en auge y desarrollo en el territorio español, con una gran diversidad de normativas existentes en base a las competencias que recaen en las Comunidades Autónomas. El riesgo inherente a estas prácticas deportivas en el medio natural conlleva la exposición de los participantes a la posibilidad de sufrir un accidente. Ante la inexistencia de un Procedimiento de Actuación ante accidentes en actividades de Turismo activo, se ha desarrollado una herramienta de aplicación a todas las actividades del sector, a partir de los aspectos a valorar por parte del guía de Turismo activo, la cual establece cinco fases desde que se produce el accidente hasta el finde la actividad. Para ello se ha realizado una revisión bibliográfica y la consulta a un grupo de expertos vinculados a la prevención de riesgos, rescate, organización y guiado de actividades en el medio natural y el Turismo activo. La herramienta propuesta aporta unas pautas de actuación seguras en caso de accidente, para los guías de Turismo activo, en base a la normativa vigente y las características propias de las actividades que realizan, con el fin de asegurar una correcta actuación para subsanar o evitar el agravio de las lesiones padecidas y/o facilitar el rescate y evacuación de la persona accidentada. Abstract. Active Tourism has been a developing business sector in the Spanish territory. There are a great diversity of different regulations and legislation for each Autonomous Community. The practice of physical activity in the natural environment entails the exposure of the athletes to the possibility of suffering an accident. In the absence of an Action Procedure for accidents in active tourism activities, an application tool has been developed for all activities in the sector. It has been based on the aspects to be assessed by the Active Tourism guide. The tool stablishes five steps to follow, from the accident until the end of the activity. A bibliographic review and consultation with a group of experts has been carried out. The group of experts were linked to risk prevention, rescue, organization, and guide of activities in the natural environment and active tourism. The proposed procedure provides guidelines for safe action in the event of an accident, for Active Tourism guides, based on current regulations and the characteristics of the activities they carry out, to ensure correct action to correct, or avoid, the grievance of the injuries suffered and / or facilitate the rescue and evacuation of the injured person.

Introduction of ZEB Technology in Japan

It is necessary to reduce energy consumption in order to combat global warming and stabilize energy supply and demand. In particular, final energy consumption in the business sector (buildings such as office buildings and commercial facilities) accounted for about 16.1% of Japan\'s total in FY2018 database, an increase from about 12.6% in FY1990 database. Therefore, there is a need for the spread of zero-energy building (ZEB), which can significantly reduce the energy consumption in buildings. Since people are active in the building, energy consumption cannot be completely reduced to zero; however, it can be closer to ZEB by reducing the energy used in the building and creating energy in the building as much as possible. This chapter introduces some technologies of energy saving and energy creation to realize ZEB in general buildings in Japan.

Summit for Democracy raises more policy questions

Significance The online meeting, which included civil society groups and representatives from the business sector, was ostensibly a forum for considering strategies to bolster democratic institutions. However, it also offered implicit criticisms of China and Russia while playing to Biden’s domestic agenda, in particular efforts to strengthen voting rights and bolster social spending. Impacts The second summit is expected soon after the November 2022 US midterm elections, when further claims of electoral fraud are likely. Criticism of Washington’s choice of participants will spark calls for a multinational committee to set the invitation list. Controversy over Taiwan’s inclusion in the Summit for Democracy will increase during 2022.
