The unique goods from university is utilized to support micro, small, and medium firms in enhancing company performance. These items underline the existence of a hydroelectric power generation system, particularly a portable generator turbine, which is an analytical and new output at Andalas University. This is a low-cost radial turbine made from a centrifugal blower. Inventors and users will profit from it. Therefore, this study intends to establish the financial feasibility of a portable generator turbine and its technology/patent valuation, as well as market potential, by applying a business model. Explanatory Sequential Mixed-Method Design was employed. Quantitative and qualitative methodologies were employed to assess the business's financial viability and product marketability. Based on the financial analysis, the construction of a portable generator turbine was viable, and had the potential to be commercialized due to its affordable value propositions. After identifying the business model canvas, adjustments should prioritize Customer Relationships, Channels, and Key Partnerships. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The purposes of this research were: 1) to examine the brand value of health-oriented bakery products in Thailand; 2) to investigate the importance of factors influencing business strategies in the production of health-oriented bakery products in Thailand; 3) to compare the importance levels of factors influencing business strategies in the production of healthoriented bakery products in Thailand, categorized by the basic characteristics of survey respondents; 4) to explore a relationship between brand equity and factors influencing business strategies in the production of health-oriented bakery products in Thailand; and 5) to propose business strategies and branding for health-oriented bakery products in Thailand. This study applied a mixed research methodology: quantitative and qualitative method. Quantitative data were collected from customers who used to purchase healthy bakery products via accidental sampling of 385 respondents, and qualitative data were collected from in-depth interview with 5 key informants. The research instrument was a research questionnaire. Statistics used in this study were frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, Pearson Product-Moment Correlation, and Multiple Regression Analysis. The research results were as follows: 1) The overall brand equity creation of healthy bakery products were at a high important level, which can be ranked by mean as brand awareness, brand identity, brand preferment, and loyalty respectively; 2) The overall factors leading to business approach of healthy bakery products were at a high important level, which be ranked by mean as competitiveness, product value, packaging, distribution, marketing promotion, and price setting respectively; 3) A relationship between the overall of brand equity creation and factors leading to business approach of healthy bakery products were at a moderate level; 4) The overall independent variables can predict the business approach of healthy bakery products at 68.8%, which can be presented as brand preference, packaging, competitive potential, product value, distribution, and marketing promotion respectively.

This research was motivated by the existing condition of the Indonesian Sharia Bank Tomo branch which is still in the form of Sub-Branch Offices; there are no bank location points on maps, low marketing intensity on social media, and the traditional gold content measuring instruments. This research method is a field and qualitative descriptive approach. Primary and secondary data collection techniques through observation, documentation, and interviews using source triangulation techniques. Data analysis techniques of Miles and Huberman and SWOT analysis. The results of research through SWOT analysis that produce alternative strategies to form a Business Model Canvas improvements are in Customer Segments with the addition of younger generation segments. Customer Relationship by maximizing personal assistance. Channels with the addition of more intense and trending use of social media, website updates, more attractive and quality brochures, and holding seminars. Value Proposition: The modernization of measuring instrument technology. Key Activities with modernising gold content measuring instruments can minimize estimation errors. Key Resources, modernization of measuring instrument technology, training centres, and cash deposits at ATMs. Key Partnership is the hope of collaborating with universities. Revenue Streams are expected to increase existing revenue. Cost Structure by removing the cost of test water.

• Minimizing losses alone does not ensure business-friendly BESS placement decisions. • Placement criteria in distinct project stages impact overall business feasibility. • Varying BESS connection procedures apply at each grid level of the power network. • Bornholm power system supports viable BESS business at multiple grid locations. Battery energy storage systems (BESSs) are gaining increasing importance in the low carbon transformation of power systems. Their deployment in the power grid, however, is currently challenged by the economic viability of BESS projects. To drive the growth of the BESS industry, private, commercial, and institutional investments in large-scale BESS projects are needed. For financiers and investors, choosing an appropriate BESS installation location is a crucial task that requires important considerations. However, so far, studies targeting the BESS placement problem have mainly focused on minimizing operational losses, solving power quality issues, and improving the voltage profile of the system. Implementing such approaches only considers the operational feasibility of BESS at the installation site while ignoring its business feasibility. Therefore, in this paper, we approach the BESS placement problem from a business viewpoint by conducting a stage-level investigation of BESS projects. First, we identify the factors impacting the business feasibility of placement decisions in projects' construction, connection, operation, and disposal stages and propose cost and time effective measures for making them business friendly. We investigate several factors such as profitability of grid services, integrability of renewable resources, affordability of connection charges, and the usability of BESS capacity. Second, we investigate the business potential of placing BESSs in different grid-levels of the power system and examine BESS connection procedures at those levels. Third, we implement the proposed approach for installing a BESS in the Danish island of Bornholm, for which, we investigate multiple locations of the Bornholm power system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
