Author(s): Moufahim, Mona; Pich, Christopher; Branco-Illodo, Ines
Abstract: First paragraph: As for any meaningful anniversary, gift-giving will be an important part of the Queen’s platinum jubilee celebrations. Over the years, the Queen has received several priceless, unusual and quirky, but also simple and yet very personal gifts from foreign officials, various businesses and organisations and from members of the public. Those gifts attract curiosity and media scrutiny about their nature, appropriateness, the givers’ motivations, but also the Queen’s reaction and responses.2022-06-01T00:00:00ZTechnology is alienating people – and it’s not just those who are olderWilson-Nash, CarolynTinson, Juliehttp://hdl.handle.net/1893/344222022-06-22T00:00:38Z2022-06-06T00:00:00ZTitle: Technology is alienating people – and it’s not just those who are older
Author(s): Wilson-Nash, Carolyn; Tinson, Julie
Abstract: First paragraph: We take it for granted that technology brings people closer together and improves our access to essential products and services. If you can’t imagine life without your smartphone, it’s easy to forget that people who can’t or don’t want to engage with the latest technology are being left behind.2022-06-06T00:00:00ZOpportunities And Challenges Of International Retailing In ChinaSiebers, Lisa Qixunhttp://hdl.handle.net/1893/332112021-09-02T00:03:33Z2018-10-03T00:00:00ZTitle: Opportunities And Challenges Of International Retailing In China
Author(s): Siebers, Lisa Qixun
Abstract: The performance of foreign retailers in China has shown a reversed U shape since their market entry in the 1990s. By the destruction of digitalisation, large retail giants continue to reduce both the number and the size of their stores, protecting bigger loss but worsening their sales too. They launched omnichannel retail after China’s online sales had started to soar in 2010 and introduced the experience-based retail ecosystem mostly in collaboration with local companies. However, their long-term performance will largely rely on the local consumption demands and institutional environment.2018-10-03T00:00:00ZCarrefour's History In And Exit From ChinaSiebers, Lisa Qixunhttp://hdl.handle.net/1893/332102023-02-23T01:01:19Z2019-08-05T00:00:00ZTitle: Carrefour's History In And Exit From China
Author(s): Siebers, Lisa Qixun
Abstract: Carrefour is a French retailer with a successful history of being China’s largest and fastest growing foreign retail stores in 1995. However, with the country’s digitalisation in 2010, Carrefour has failed to adapt with the changing consumer and market behaviour which led to its exit in one of the world’s largest e-commerce markets. In this article, the author has cited Carrefour’s successes and failures – from its management strategies to business expansion plans which can become a competitive imperative of learning for multinational companies and industries who need to upskill their approach towards the digital era before it becomes too late for them.2019-08-05T00:00:00Z
