🔗🎥 Just wrapped up a thought-provoking webinar organised by Visionest Institute (Ukraine), engaging 15 Ukrainian furniture companies in discussions about entering the UK market. The dialogue encompassed a spectrum of crucial questions, from market entry strategies and financial considerations to understanding consumer preferences and the challenges of navigating the UK business landscape. 🔍 Exploring topics such as the influence of UK business associations, the reception of Ukrainian goods, and the complexities of market entry, participants gained valuable insights for their global expansion journey. 🤝 An integral part of the event was dedicated to exploring the valuable membership services offered by the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry, emphasising our commitment to supporting Ukrainian businesses during these challenging times. Connecting with colleagues from the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce and Industry regional network who joined the conversation was inspiring, adding diverse perspectives to the dialogue. 📺 For those who missed it, the recording is available here: https://lnkd.in/e_Mbw5Kv. Feel free to revisit the discussion and share your reflections. More engaging sessions are in the pipeline! 🛋️🌐 #globalbusiness #marketinsights 🚀📊

Great article about Mark Korda and the KordaMentha business.

"Thabo Mbeki, former president, addressed a conference of the SA Association of Public Administration & Management this week, using remarks by the CEO of the Institute of Race Relations, John Endres, in the US earlier this year, to lament that the ANC government of President Cyril Ramaphosa is collapsing the state. "Instead of political currents," Endres had told his audience, "a different trend will shape SA's outcomes over the medium term. This is the receding power of the state — its loss of authority and credibility, its inability to translate plans into action ... "As the state becomes less and less capable, it is being increasingly bypassed by private actors. This process has been under way for a considerable time already. Those who can afford it rely on private healthcare and schooling, of a quality far higher than that provided by the state. In the absence of reliable electricity from the state-owned utility, those who can afford it install solar power on their rooftops. "Such replacements of state services by private entities are taking place all over SA. In urban areas, residents' associations are fixing potholes, while in rural areas farmers do the same. Civil society organisations like Solidarity are building technical schools and universities. Trash recyclers control traffic intersections when the lights are out. Large corporations provide security along freight rail corridors, while mining companies build clinics and provide housing and water near mines ... farmers help repair the water infrastructure where state neglect has left it derelict." And this, said Endres, which hits Mbeki like an electric charge, "is where SA's greatest opportunity for the future is to be found: in its innovative and resilient private sector and civil society, which are solving problems in the growing absence of the state, and doing so successfully.""
