Intrado Corporation; and 8x8, Inc. are the market players present in these two regions. Further, the growing SMEs and large enterprises are also driving the market growth. As, it is the most cost-effective platform to implement in their own businesses. As, in North America, it has been observed that about 30% of all SMEs currently use dealing with cloud communication platform, and it’s giving them added cause for optimism. Moreover, several government initiatives toward introducing cloud services in Europe is also another factor for the growth of cloud communication platform market. For instance, in October 2020, the EU Member States signed a declaration to build the next generation cloud for businesses and the public sector in the EU, a EU Cloud Federation. The European Federated Cloud is meant to be a set of joint technical solutions and policy norms in order to foster EU cloud services that are interoperable across Europe. These technical solutions and policy norms should offer a high standard in terms of data protection, cybersecurity, data portability/reversibility, interoperability, transparency, openness, energy efficiency, performance, and reliability.

According to data from the USDA, Brazil was the second largest producer and consumer of biofuels in the world during 2021. The country is among the global pioneers in biofuels development and adoption, with the introduction of flex-fuel (dual-fuel ethanol and petrol) vehicles as early as 2003. Moreover, mandatory blending of fossil fuels with biofuels has underpinned the growth of the sector ever since their introduction in the second half of the 2000s decade. Brazil’s massive agricultural sector also plays a key part in the development of the sector, with the country being among the largest producers of raw materials for biofuels, such as sugarcane, soybean, maize and animal fats.

Australian agriculture benefits from decades of productivitygrowth in record-breaking year. Value of production to reach record $81 billion in 2021–22. Value of exports forecast to reach record $64 billion in 2021–22. Value of production and exports to fall and then steady over themedium term.

Consumer electronic products have a well-established market both domestically and in terms of export demand. The country has a well-developed semiconductor market which during the pandemic was unable to operate to its full potential. Malaysia is crucial in the outsourced assembly, packaging, and testing market, as well as in the automated test equipment businesses. Companies such as Dell, HP, and Intel have their manufacturing centre in Malaysia. Some of the audio visual products produced in Malaysia include radios, speakers, and TV sets, and major vendors include Panasonic, Samsung, and Sony. The Malaysian market, even though small, is an important manufacturing hub for global consumer electronics supply chain, local manufacturing players are more affected by global demand than domestic demand.

Welcome to the eighth edition of Global Powers of Luxury Goods. FY2020 proved to be a challenging year and most luxury goods companies concentrated their efforts on managing their business through the pandemic. However, it was also a disruptive year in many positive ways and companies implemented genuine changes in their strategies. The commitment to a more environmentally friendly and inclusive fashion and luxury industry is real and there is increased focus on raising awareness among current and future consumers. As many parts of the world are opening up and consumers are returning to physical stores and live events, digitalization continues to be important. We are now seeing how technological evolution is accelerating the creation of parallel dimensions—where even garments are made of pixels and the communication between those who make fashion, and their consumers is immediate and direct. Luxury e-commerce went past the tipping point and became a vital part of the omnichannel distribution strategy for global luxury players.

The changing lifestyles of people have boosted the market for ready-to-drink beverages, which is one of the most significant factors driving the growth of the retort machinery market. In addition, the rising beverage consumption in emerging economies is another factor influencing the growth of the market. Busy lifestyles, long working hours, and limited leisure time have increased the population’s reliance on convenience foods. This has led to the need for improved safety, driving the demand for retort equipment.

In the wake of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the conflict between liberal camps centered upon the US and Europe and autocratic camps centered upon China and Russia is growing. Finally, international trade, which had been free for more than 30 years after the collapse of the Soviet Union, is becoming increasingly blocked. For fossil fuels, supply is limited due to conflicts between the two camps, including between the US and China in 2018, Australia and China in 2021, and Russia and Western Europe in 2022. In the meantime, many countries are strengthening their individual carbon-neutral policies to address climate change. Accordingly, we believe that responses to climate change going forward will become a means for countries to regulate one another. Given carbon neutrality and energy independence needs, nuclear power is expected to become a major source of power. In addition, the expansion of the renewable energy market, which has secured economic feasibility compared to fossil fuels, is to accelerate the global transition towards a hydrogen economy. Given this rapidly changing world order, we believe it is time to take a close look at how green energy market being reorganized.

Profession AV solutions, often known as pro AV equipment, are systems that, among other things, send multiple high-quality live audio and video signals that are uncompressed to many devices. Live events, broadcast facilities, business installations, and recording and post-production all require pro AV equipment. The backbone of every pro-AV system, whether fixed or portable, are pro speakers equipment and solutions. In recent years, the introduction of cloud and softwarebased applications has resulted in a significant shift in audio-visual (AV) technologies. Advanced AV solutions are expected to assist global businesses in achieving seamless business communication and cooperation. System integrators and channel partners, on the other hand, are seeing a lot of income potential in the burgeoning worldwide enterprise AV industry.

Caterpillar and Komatsu are construction, mining, and utility vehicle companies. John Deere and CNH Industrial offer agricultural and construction equipment. AGCO is purely agricultural. The COVID-19 pandemic created a need for digitization due to the slowdown of work and reduced workforce in 2020. The industry started recovering in mid-2020 in the farming segment and early 2021 in construction and mining globally. In China, the recovery began in mid-2020 in all segments.
