Two way satelite internet, you pay in UK, and behave like in the UK in all the nordic emisphere, some 45 euro a month (if I do remember well)

Send me your e-mail through Linkedin mail and I&#039;ll find those attachements wherever I should of put them, and forward them to you.

Remember this is a friendly token of mine, I make no money on it, but I do it to beat the turks, chineese or whosoever else fears Youtube or other informations channels.

		<description><![CDATA[Luck has notihing to do with, Greg, passing the vision instead, has to do a lot.

If one fails to pass the vision to the investors, than the market will wait in vain for that solution with their cash in hand, that&#039;s it.

Or said better, it is not luck that I need, it is you!

Look here

 http://www.youtube.com/user/valdemoneghe
This is my personal youtube channel
 get in, you will see the last uploaded video in the middle
 on the right they are the 3 last ulpoalded videos in a frame, and beneath them is the &quot;more&quot; link, click it
 you have thus access to all the uploads I did, look at them, they are examples of my projects in Autocad shown as films, or other projects I did.


And than think if there is any way you could be of help, a referral, or a question, anything that gives imput in any manner is welcome!

Even a curse, if that&#039;s pushing me ahead of an inch.

		<description><![CDATA[Do You Really Want to Pursue Disruptive Innovation?

So if you want to aspire to Disruptive Innovation you will need to think of something that doesn’t work very well, has no market for it and no clear path to profitability (as Google did when “Search was dead”).  That takes passion.  If there are big budgets, nice offices or fancy cars in the parking lot, it probably either isn’t disruptive or it won’t be successful.

I&#039;m in it as inventor, and prototyping some things I believe in, but as you said, I am pennyless and creditless in front of traditional business.

Still I know I&#039;ll knock them off, sooner or later.  But I need help, I need management, I need funds, and I need friends, and above all I need to stay alive.

I&#039;ll make it, I promise.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Disruptive technology is a powerful term when you&#039;re trying to appeal to investors.  It&#039;s also a great buzzword for sales pitches &amp; marketing communications vehicles.   As a consequence, it may be overused.  However, the outstanding companies that are well-managed, etc. -- those that become obsoleted by &quot;disruptive technology and ideas are largely those who have the market move from under them, and can&#039;t or don&#039;t adapt to that change.  

Buggy whips are a common example.  Sears built its reputation and customer base on rural lower-income people who found it convenient to order from catalogs.  WalMart took this market from them, but wouldn&#039;t have succeeded as greatly as they did if Henry Ford hadn&#039;t started making a auto for the masses.

Sears didn&#039;t react because their well-trained and s(t)olid management  misread the situation.  The same is true with Big Blue and PCs.  They didn&#039;t want to soil their hands and have to grub in the commodities type of marketing.  The market is the same all over.  Some of today&#039;s highly respected giants will lose their luster and market share.  It&#039;s inevitable.  It&#039;s business.  Neil Mahoney]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Raghu,

No, it applies to all industries - discount stock brokers and tax accountants for instance who disrupted the marketplace by targeting people who were over-served by conventional models.

It&#039;s actually very tough for established companies to continue to service their current customers and also target over-served or non consumers.

		<description><![CDATA[Hi,

An informative post. Just happened to read. Is the disruptive innovation is restricted only to manufacturing or services? Can it not be applied in say infrastructure? Just wondering.

While in the media segment in the creativity domain this may work wonderfully  (vodafone ad with the Pug, for instance) , why it is not seen often even in established companies? Are they are wary of this phrase or not acknowledge it?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[John,

It&#039;s an interesting question, but I don&#039;t think Apple is a disruptive innovator.  They create premium functionality and charge a premium price.  That makes them a very, very, good innovator, but not a disruptive innovator.

In effect, they do disruptive the marketplace, but not the business model.  They just force everybody to catch up with them.
