BLS International is holding a conference with more than 2,500 delegates from international business, government, civil society, media, and academics. The conference aims to stimulate dialogue about significant challenges and make a difference.

India – January 20, 2023 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

A carefully chosen group of delegates from international business, government, civil society, media, and academics congregate to engage in sessions meant to stimulate fruitful dialogue about the most significant challenges of the day—and consequently hope to make a difference. 

Setting a record, more than 2,500 delegates are anticipated to participate this year, including ​​the Chairman of BLS International, Mr. Diwakar Aggarwal and Joint Managing Director of BLS International, Mr. Shikhar Aggarwal. The conference is also anticipated to draw close to 100 corporate titans from India, including Gautam Adani, Mukesh Ambani, Kumar Mangalam Birla, N Chandrasekaran, Nadir Godrej, Adar Poonawalla, Sajjan Jindal, and Sanjiv Bajaj.

Amidst a somewhat unprecedented amount of turmoil in the global macroeconomic environment and geopolitical landscape such a dialogue between world leaders is essential to draw and derive solutions to bring the world together. As the world navigates the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and looks towards a more sustainable and equitable future, the role of India which retains its position as one of the fastest-growing economies in the world, is primal in shaping the global dialogue.

Mr. Diwakar Aggarwal said, “Global leaders must work together and cooperate as the globe continues to face numerous complicated and interrelated problems. To ensure a better future for everyone in a world that is becoming more and more fragmented, we must develop comprehensive and coordinated solutions to these issues. Fostering trust, cooperation, and resilience requires strengthening social cohesion, or the ties within a society. Social cohesion can aid in reducing conflict, promoting stability, and enabling groups to collaborate to achieve common goals by fostering a sense of inclusion and belonging.”

Furthermore he added, “From the very onset BLS International has been driven to constantly foster and create new public-private cooperation paradigms not just in India but around various global economies.”

 Mr. Shikhar Aggarwal commented, “Living in the new world order with incubation and acceptance of the digital economy we have been able to surpass the boundaries and make the world flat. Aș digitisation and automation become a norm, what will differentiate providers is the quality of service that will be translated into customer experience. With this vision I can proudly say that BLS International has swiftly turned from an Indian homegrown enterprise into a global corporation.” 

Additionally, he said, “Very recently, we have touched a billion dollar market capitalization establishing ourselves as a partner of choice with client governments worldwide with an impeccable reputation for setting benchmarks in the domain of Visa, Passport, Consular, E-governance, Attestation, Biometric, E-visa, and retail services while also providing citizen services to state and provincial governments. We ensure that consumers of service are enabled to have the best possible experience and are kept paramount.”

People are paying high visa fees, exhibit strong ties to their home country, which may include providing letters of support from their spouse, parents, and senior government offices. They must also submit a plethora of documents, such as certified bank account statements, airline and hotel reservations, and proof of health and travel insurance. On top of all of this, they still frequently have trouble getting their visas approved. However, BLS International is making sure to provide a smooth and customer friendly experience for its valued applicants. One of the customers Mr. Naveen Kalra wrote,“We visited BLS Brampton office for Indian passport surrender, a large queue and we were afraid whether our turn will come, the BLS staff at gate was very cordial and I observed every one answering very politely and intelligently, our turn came after two and half hours but I found the admin staff at counter very helping, knowledgeable and efficient, we were attended very nicely and we were very happy about the task was done, great public service by BLS, bravo.”

Akkio’s new Chat Data Prep liberates spreadsheet users by using ML – in just minutes they can now wrangle tabular data uploaded from Excel, Snowflake or other databases.

Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States – January 20, 2023 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

Akkio, the easy-to-use machine learning (ML) company, today announced a new way to interact with data that brings the latest advances in ML to everyday Excel users. 

Akkio’s new Chat Data Prep allows users to transform spreadsheet data by typing in conversational language rather than entering traditional formulas and formatting commands. Leveraging AI and large language models, Akkio’s machine learning platform interprets conversational language and changes the data as users request. 

“The ability to easily transform data with plain language means a 10x reduction in the time it takes to prepare your data for analysis,” said Jonathon Reilly, cofounder of Akkio. 

“Just ask for what you want, confirm the preview, and apply the transform in a single click. You can even use Akkio to fix messy date fields, for example by writing, ‘reformat the date to MM/DD/YYYY,’ or do time-based math operations like ‘calculate the days from the date to today’.” 

Large language models like ChatGPT have set the stage for this movement and are already rapidly transforming the way we interact with technology. These new advances in natural language processing capabilities generate human-like text and create images when prompted by typed descriptions. 

Akkio’s Chat Data Prep is the first solution for the preparation and transformation of large volumes of data by large language model technology. Anyone who has used Excel to try and correct a date format, pick a name out of a field of text, or use VLOOKUP knows the tedium of succeeding with a desired data transformation.

“Chat Data Prep saves users days of cleaning and preparing data they would have once done with complicated formulas or SQL,” said Reilly. “Business users can upload a dataset, clean and prep data with the same keystrokes they once used to describe the job to a team member, and download a transformed spreadsheet.”

Casual spreadsheet users working in excel and seasoned data professionals working in Snowflake and Big Query both struggle to prepare and format data, just on a different scale. Data scientists and Analysts spend as much as 80% of their time on data preparation, and as little as 20% on insight and modeling.

Akkio’s machine-learning platform already makes it possible to classify and sequence data, train predictive ML models, and forecast business outcomes with minimal coding knowledge. With the addition of Chat Data Prep, now machine learning does the data prep too. 

Akkio customers use the platform for a wide range of applications including lead scoring, churn reduction, revenue forecasting, ad spend optimization, and for integrating ML-driven features into their own custom-built products. Users can now clean and transform datasets in minutes and gain business insights faster and easier.

Chat Data Prep is free for anyone to try for a limited time on the Akkio platform and is available in the company’s entry subscription plans, which start as low as $50 per month. Try Chat Data Prep out now.

About Us: Machine learning without the learning curve. Founded in May 2019, Akkio is a technology company that makes AI easy enough for anyone to use. With financial backing from Bain Capital Ventures and executives from Hubspot and Sonos, Akkio combines state-of-the-art ML technology with a simple, intuitive platform to enable a new generation of AI-powered businesses.

Climate change crisis meets the gaming culture; ClimateCandy, an innovative mobile gaming app developed by Operal, allows its users to play games and combat climate change, a potent combination of gaming for the greater good.

Switzerland – January 20, 2023 —

The climate crisis is a massive threat to people and the planet, but it also presents an opportunity to build a truly green economy that benefits everyone. ClimateCandy app, developed by Operal, has introduced innovative ways to save the planet and combat climate change.

“The International Energy Agency states that we will need to reduce CO2 in the environment by 19% if we are to achieve the goal of carbon neutrality by 2070. Which means we’ll have to evolve and change the ways we capture, use and store carbon moving forward,” a representative of ClimateCandy app in a recent interview.

“We have created an innovative app where you can create an impact. Play our hyper-casual games and help save the planet. Our app will reward you for gaming; it’s that simple! The more you play, the more we plant trees and take CO2 out of the atmosphere. Download our app and #playtosavetheplanet,” they continued.

Climate change is a shift in global or regional climate patterns, particularly one visible from the mid to late twentieth century, primarily attributed to increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) caused by fossil fuels. In recent years, tree planting has become a cornerstone of many environmental campaigns. Planting trees is becoming increasingly popular as a simple and effective way to help reduce the impact of carbon emissions and restore natural ecosystems.

Conclusion

Mobile games, like the ClimateCandy app, are fighting climate change for the win of the planet. ClimateCandy app will reward its users for gaming. The more their gamers play, the more they will plant trees; this is for the planet’s greater good.  

Gamers who want to help save the planet by planting trees and making a big difference for the next generation are invited to download ClimateCandy app or visit their website below.

About Operal – ClimateCandy app

Operal was founded in 2021 by a group of established web3 entrepreneurs who care about the planet and its inhabitants – they decided to collaborate with a young gaming expert who embodies the gaming lifestyle of the next generation.

Pacific Business Sales recently sold a commercial plumbing company for $1.4 million, surpassing a private equity firm to deliver a high cash payment at closing.

Irvine, California, United States – January 20, 2023 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

Using strategic, aggressive marketing, Pacific Business Sales recently secured and presented six offers to a highly successful commercial plumbing company, yielding a payout over $1.4 million higher than the deal the seller negotiated 18 months earlier. The seller received better terms and substantially more cash at closing.

When a top plumber attempted to sell his business to a private equity group for several million dollars, he discovered that the letter of intent (LOI) had less than favorable conditions hidden in the terms. In particular, the letter specified that the valuation included the businesses’ working capital and reserved a basket of funds for potential future liabilities. It also stipulated that the owner would buy back 20% of the stock in the new company. As a result, the owner’s expected cash payout at closing would be reduced by half. After pulling out of the deal, the seller began seeking better options. 18 months later, Pacific Business Sales signed on to broker the sale of his business.

Pacific Business Sales is a full-service business broker that makes inquiries, brings in buyers, negotiates terms, and secures financing for every sale. To find qualified buyers for the commercial plumbing business, the firm advertised on various business-for-sale websites such as bizbuysell.com, bizquest.com, loopnet.com, and their database with over 3,500 buyers. They also utilized non-public websites available only to private equity groups and sent out targeted email blasts.

After connecting with qualified prospects, including equity groups, entrepreneurs, and search funds, Pacific Business Sales was able to attract several attractive and competitive offers. Once the sales process began in earnest, they also prepared and presented a comprehensive, confidential information memorandum (CIM) to send to prospective buyers.

Pacific Business Sales applied dedication and expertise to bring the seller favorable terms and a high cash payout at closing. They expedited a thorough due diligence process and worked with attorneys representing the buyer, seller, and a Small Business Administration (SBA) lender to ensure a successful outcome. 

The winning bid included a stock sale that gave the seller a measurable tax benefit and generated a much higher payout than the rejected prior offer. The firm utilized IRS Section 338(h) to minimize the tax disadvantage of a stock sale by recapturing the depreciation. With the tax savings benefit accrued from the stock sale, the seller acquired a healthy cash payment toward his retirement.

Pacific Business Sales has a long history of connecting buyers and sellers looking to move onward and upward in life. To facilitate successful transactions, Pacific Business Sales applies knowledge gained from more than 20 years of experience selling a wide variety of businesses in several industries, including the aerospace, technology, manufacturing, and construction sectors. Their brokers work with buyers, sellers, and lenders through every stage of the sales process to ensure that all necessary procedures and transactions are carried out seamlessly. 

Being aware of the nuances that contribute to a company’s value ensures that they secure the maximum possible valuation for every business they serve. Because Pacific Business Sales upholds a high standard of ethics and uses lender-approved valuation methodologies, buyers can be confident they will meet the approval terms for receiving SBA financing. Both buyers and sellers trust the business transition specialists at Pacific Business Sales to broker mutually beneficial business transactions.

About Us: Pacific Business Sales is a team of experienced business brokers who sell small and mid-size California businesses. With a strong presence in Orange County, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Silicon Valley, San Diego, and the Inland Empire, their team represents owners and sellers statewide.

Cornerstone Projects is publishing a survey on the causes and effects of delays for the UK construction industry. The survey highlights that delays continue to be a significant issue.

Liverpool, United Kingdom – January 20, 2023 —

Cornerstone Projects, a leading player in the provision of underground utility searches has announced the publication of a survey on the causes and effects of delays in the UK construction industry over the last 12 months, compared to a similar survey undertaken in 2016.

The survey, which included responses from principal contractors, consultants, subcontractors and designers, highlighted significant increases in the number of major construction projects experiencing delays. In addition, the survey identified significant changes in both the time and cost implications of the delays experienced by respondents.

The results of the survey show that delays continue to be a significant problem in the UK construction industry, with many respondents reporting that their most recent project was delayed by over 50% of the original estimated delivery time. In addition, a significant number of respondents reported that over 50% of all projects are subject to delays.

“The UK Construction industry should be deeply concerned by the results of this survey,” said Duncan Phillips, CEO of Cornerstone Projects. “Delays in construction projects can have serious consequences, including increased costs and lost productivity. We urge all stakeholders in the construction industry to work together to find solutions to this ongoing problem.”

One of the main takeaways from the new survey is the increase in the number of projects experiencing delays, with a worrying 91% of respondents saying they had been involved in a delayed project compared to 85% in 2016.

The questionnaire asked each respondent what they believed were the reasons for the delays. Although poor original planning and unrealistic scheduling remain the main reasons for delays, the number of respondents that chose ‘resource availability’, jumped from 7th spot in 2016 to 2nd in 2022. This is no doubt influenced by the knock on effects of Brexit and the Covid outbreak.  

Respondents were also asked what actions they would recommend to reduce delays in the future. In what some might see as a shift in attitudes, several respondents called for harsher penalties to be imposed, although providing better information, and improved monitoring and scheduling remained the top responses.

The full results of the survey are published here – https://www.cornerstoneprojects.co.uk/blog/delays-in-the-construct.

Not long after opening its 4th location, B.Y.O.T. Auto Parts celebrates its 6th anniversary

Waco, TX, United States – January 20, 2023 —

Environmentally friendly self-service automotive parts recycler B.Y.O.T. Auto Parts has reached a significant milestone. This month marks the 6th anniversary of the thriving spare car parts company, which has already established a strong and powerful presence in the market. 

In the state of Texas, the company has as many as three locations: Waco, Bryan, and Beaumont. In addition, B.Y.O.T. Auto Part has recently expanded into Louisiana: the company opened its 4th location in Port Allen, LA, last year in August 2022. 

As an environmentally-friendly company, B.Y.O.T. Auto Parts recycles thousands of wrecked, abandoned, and broken-down vehicles each month. The company also buys cars or trucks for parts, which is an environmentally friendly way to dispose of a used vehicle.

The owner of B.Y.O.T. Auto Parts, Lance Thomas, stated: “We have thousands of cars and millions of used auto parts in our Auto Parts Superstore. We are confident that you’ll find what you need when you come to us and that you’ll be pleasantly surprised by what you find. There is also the added satisfaction of saving money and doing it yourself or selling us your vehicle.”  

About B.Y.O.T. Auto Parts: B.Y.O.T. Auto Parts offers a unique, eco-friendly service, enabling its customers to pull their parts from their huge selection of inventory and save up to 75% off of auto parts compared to the cost of brand-new car parts.

As a result, customers can find high-quality car parts at competitive prices at one of B.Y.O.T. Auto Parts’ four locations, coupled with an exceptional customer experience.
