Innovation in Australian business is being driven by these factors 哪些因素推动了澳大利亚企业的创新？
It’s clearly a case of businesses, and managers, weighing up the opportunities and threats that face them and allocating resources to confront this changed and changing environment.
Marketing innovation and process improvements can enable the collection, storage and use of data, which in turn will help refine brand proposition and product offering to better meet the needs of the customers.
More broadly, when viewed by industry across Australia, the two most common areas of innovation are organisational innovation (professional services, accommodation and food, as well as healthcare and social assistance) and marketing innovation (wholesale and retail trade as well as the not-for-profit sector). Innovation is company- and industry-specific. Businesses will need to access all areas within their organisation to seek innovation and improvements and achieve better outcomes.
Salesforce is acquiring data-visualisation company Tableau in a $15.7 billion megadeal
Salesforce以157亿美元的价格收购数据可视化公司Tableau
Salesforce is acquiring Tableau, a publicly traded company that sells data-visualisation software, in a $US15.7 billion deal announced early Monday. Tableau, run by CEO Adam Selipsky, has long been viewed as an acquisition target for Salesforce, which has used large-scale acquisitions to build out its product suite and surge toward its long-term revenue goals.
Tableau’s data analytics and visualisation platform has 86,000 customers. Bank of America Merrill Lynch advised Salesforce on the deal, and Goldman Sachs advised Tableau. Salesforce said Tableau would continue to operate independently under the Tableau brand with Selipsky and the rest of its current leadership team in charge. The company has 4,200 employees, though it’s unclear whether they will all stay. Tableau’s shares surged 34.17% to $US168.00 in premarket trading on Monday. Salesforce was down 4.57% to $US153.90.
The second Amazon Go store in New York has a mini self-serve Starbucks coffee bar inside 纽约的第二家亚马逊Go商店里面有一个迷你自助式星巴克咖啡吧
Amazon has another Go store in New York, and it’s built for caffeine-craving New Yorkers. The new store, which is Amazon’s 13th Go store nationwide and the second one in New York, opened on Tuesday.
Its 1,700 square feet is stocked with snacks, lunch options like sandwiches and salads, and some of what Amazon calls “local favourites,” including Magnolia Cupcake and Ess-A-Bagel. The new location will also have a self-serve Starbucks coffee bar. “We partnered up with Starbucks to make sure we’re offering really great coffee,” Cameron Janes, Amazon’s vice president of physical stores said.
Amazon Go patrons can choose between an Americano, cappuccino, latte, double espresso, cafè mocha, cinnamon dolce latte, vanilla latte, caramel latte, hazelnut latte, sugar-free vanilla latte, hot chocolate, and Vanilla Steamer. All the options come with 2% milk.
The 300 Park Ave. location is the first location outside Seattle to offer fresh coffee drinks. All Go stores feature Amazon’s cashierless “just-walk-out” technology that uses sensors and cameras to track what customers take off shelves and out of the store, charging shoppers appropriately.
