A World of Opportunities

This is a video from PEPSICO available in YOUTUBE.

I’m just posting because it’s a nice message and also the filme is quite fun. A little bit of adrenaline that makes us think about the little things that we could recycle but we don’t.

Hope you like it too.  Too see it click here or  youtube directly link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wk7YZ9mQmk&feature=player_embedded.

But then you ask yourself, what’s the connection to business?!

Here is the answer, for example withing the ink and packaging segment, this is a really growing market, just to give a hint, the company Marchant prints around 6 million bags A DAY. So, the PP (plastic) producer, ink producer and all the suppliers should have products that meet this recycling / enviromental friendly final product.

this is only one example and they are not even the largest printers in UK, still think this is not an important matter or a good business opportunity?!

Working for a company called Chimigraf (www.chimigraf.com) since November 2009, and after been in HP Brasil for 3 years within the marketing for small and midium business, I can say I know a litlle bit about printers and ink.

FESPA is a extrodinary event where you can find all the world players when it comes to printing and displaying solutions. I guess if you are looking for starting a new business, in this place you could buy the whole solution. From the printer to the ink suppliers and the necessary service and know how.

HP for example has a huge booth where they show solutions for each segment of the market, from digital display printed in PP and PE to UV coating. You’ll also find all the main Chinese printers producers and all the old fashion Serigraphy companies that are adapting to the new wave of digital printing.

http://www.fespa.com/ is a great place to find the latest trendies on  digital, ink and screening solutions.

 Chinese internet habits have been rapidly changing over the past few years, according to a just-released study from the Boston Consulting Group: more time online than almost any other nation and embracing e-commerce at a amazing rate:

1 billions of hours that chinese web users spent online daily in 2009, more than both the US and Japan combined.

37 billions of daollars in value of e-commerce transactions by Chinese users in 2009, expected to 100 billions in 2012.

137% percentage rate of chinese shopping online expected by 2012, which means a growth from 8% to 19% of the population.

Spain is the second country in the whole world that uses more 2.0 web, just after the USA.

45% of the whole on-line buys done by spaniards (meanning people living in Spain) are done in abroad web )not spanish companies)

Despite calls for better branding metrics, click-throughs are still the No. 1 effectiveness metric for many in the online ad industry, while ROI measurement lags behind

If you speak spanish and can come to these free event in Spain, I have to tell you not to miss it.

When checking the names of the people participating and the schedule, though it’s going to be a hard day of work, I’m imaginigit’ll be totally worth participating.
