Art & Culture: two big players in the global crisis.
Posted March 8, 2012 by Paolo Sturiale in Business
While it is impossible to deny the severity of the present economic crisis, it is also clear that Europe has many reasons for optimism and hope.
As Europeans we should start looking at our cultural sector as a reservoir of hope, ideas and new economic growth that can lead us out of the crisis. The Europe of tomorrow is only going to be as successful and liveable as the ideas we have to make it grow. We all need master what artists are already good at making more with less, finding fresh new perspectives and exciting new combinations.
Art is not only a pleasurable icing on the cake; it is also a way of thinking and a practice of working innovatively with reality that can inspire us all to do better.
Furthermore, while the crisis is economic and political, it certainly isn't cultural. European cities are right now among the most creative and vibrant in the world. Cities like London, Milan, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin and Copenhagen are not only major metropolises but also major creative centres with hundreds of thousands employed in the creative industries. By including culture on a much broader level in city planning, social policy and business development, we can create much more economically sustainable, attractive and liveable cities, also working and collaborating with the Arab World.

Dear members, friends and sponsors,
I would like to open a discussion about the importance and the role of art and culture in business.
Whether you are an art lover, a collector, a successful entrepreneur or both, you need to consider a few important issues.
I am utterly convinced that a cultural life and experience of quality is of paramount importance not only for the regions we live in and its citizens but also for the well being and success of its economy.
Therefore industry and business need to go hand in hand with cultural initiatives in order to elevate the region and its profile. I cannot emphasis strongly enough the benefits that can be gained by companies and private initiative takers in embracing the art industry that has at it core a wealth of creativity, originality and moments of spontaneous geniality.
Of course, there is much more to be said about it, so I would like you to share your thoughts as well.
Soon, I will start covering other aspects of the relation between culture and business, including:
- social responsability
- crossing cultures
- securing investments
- supporting government culture initiaves
- promoting the country abroad through cultures and local excellences
Looking forward to hearing your feedback,
all the best,
Paolo Sturiale

Wall Street Boys Run The Show Only Ron Paul Has Firm Gr
Posted July 25, 2011 by Jeroen Segerink in Business
Gerald Celente : we definitely need a bill that will; prevent another financial crisis , Washington the white house lies and the media swears to it , this is not the greatest financial reform since the great depression , the greatest financial reform since the great depression was in 1999 the Gramm–Leach–Bliley Act under the Clinton Administration that deregulated the financial reforms that were put into place , look at the facts when the house senate passes versions of this bill the stock market voted , the banking stocks went up and so did the DOW , this is merely a white wash for the white shoe boyz on wall street it does nothing to prevent the coming crash of 2010 the bigs only got bigger , two third of the credit card action is controlled by three major banks you do not have to be a mathematician to add up the numbers , so when they are talking about the public won't have to bailout the too big to fails that's just not true , because what they did there was nineteen billion dollars that the banks were supposed to put up in the event of such a catastrophe but they did not put it up it was a white washed out of the bills , so that means that the public will foot the bill and they will say that they are going to the banks now to collect on it , so when the too bigs to fail fail the public will again will be left holding the bill........"
Gerald Celente makes too much sense. Ron Paul is the best man seeking the Presidency. Americans will not elect Ron Paul. The media scoffs at him and wonders why he even talks. The average voter is beyond stupid and they will get the Government that stupid people deserve. America is hopeless. A complete collapse is unavoidable. It's a good thing in one sense and that is they will soon be too poor to bomb small helpless nations anymore.

"Without us" - the salesman said - "the company wouldn't have the success needed". And the marketing specialist answered: "You couldn't sell anything properly, without us !"
Who is right ?? Let's look a bit more into the details of their jobs.
What is the duty of salespeople ?
They normally sell a known product to known customers, in a known region and into known market-segments. They - should - know the competition of their buyers. They - should - know the birthdays, hobbies and family status ... more
