16A –What’s Your Secret Sauce?

1)     My opinion

I believe that my secret salsa is compromised from a few key attributes, specifically, five of them. believe that two of my most important aspects of my personality is that I am a people person. I am very social and can adapt to different social circles. I think this is partly due to the fact that I came from a different country and had to adapt to a completely new environment. Another attribute that makes up my secret sauce is my ability to understand new material in a fast manner. I think this is significant especially when it comes to business as the market is always changing and one needs to be able to follow this changing patterns. Furthermore, I think that another way I provide human capital is that I speak different language. I came from Greece a few years back and speak it fluently. I also consider English a first language to me and I can understand and speak some Spanish. Even though not a lot of people speak Greek anymore, I think that many languages are based on it which also helps me learn new language in a very fast manner. Lastly, I think that my empathy compromises a majority of my secret sauce and can help a lot with my idea and any future ventures as it allows me to put myself in others’ shoes and understand people’s needs easily.

I believe that my own reflection was very closely correlated with the reflection I received from the above individuals who are close to me. I believe that what stood out most was my determination and compassion for others, along with my social character.

1) Economic Trend: U.S. Consumed More Renewables Than Coal for First Time in 134 Years https://www.wsj.com/articles/u-s-consumed-more-renewables-than-coal-for-first-time-in-134-years-11590691919?mod=business_lead_pos6 According to  U.S. Consumed More Renewables Than Coal for First Time in 134 Years,  an opportunity exists to invest in renewable energy sources. This article is directly correlated with the economy because coal and its substitutes play a huge role in the global economy. I believe this opportunity exists because from the statistics presented by the article, more renewable energy has been used. Investing in renewable energy such a machinery that stray away from coal would have successful earnings. The people affected by this would be the entire population, but the opportunity would be tough and expensive to exploit, due to the cost of renewable energy consuming machinery. I saw this opportunity due to the fact that I am a huge renewable energy advocate. I am...

29A – Venture Concept No. 2

Image
1)     Venture Concept 1 ( with changes) My idea is revolved around a new product-based idea. The idea is a carry-on bag that has an electrical scouter attached on it. I had the idea sitting at an airport with my family, after four connected flights we had to take and attempting to find our next terminal in the vast new airport of Istanbul. By looking at the model carry on luggage bags with manual scouters, I came up with the idea of an electrical scouter carry-on bag. My customer profile is individuals aging from 24-50, with a passion for traveling, or traveling as a requirement from their jobs. They could be single or have a family, traveling alone or with family. My consumers will also demand a certain degree of style and class and put a lot of emphasis on the “look” on my product.
