...History Samsung Group is currently a multinational conglomerate company headquartered in Samsung Town, Seoul. In 1938 when Samsung was founded in Daegu (Korea), it was initially a trading company, selling dried Korean fish, vegetables, and fruit to Manchuria and Beijing. (Samsung) Just after a little more than a decade, it owned flour mills and confectionery machines and began its own manufacturing and sales operations. During the 1970s, Samsung (for the first time) began exporting electronic products, and in 1978, Samsung Semiconductor and Samsung Electronics became separate entities. Soon after in the 1980s, they increased their focus on technology and this had led to the creation of the company’s 2 research and development (R&D) institutes. However, after the death of their founder Lee Byung-chul, it was segmented into 4 independent business groups. By the 1990s, Samsung became more globalized and their best sources of revenue came from their mobile phones and semiconductors. Business Portfolio Samsung Corporation is a multinational conglomerate company with operations in almost every country. Often, they have products or services that are available in a huge number of countries and an example is the initial launch of the Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone. It was initially sold in 110 countries and over time it expanded to total of 155 countries in cooperation with 327 partners (Yarow, 2013). It also serves organisations and almost every segment of consumers regardless...

S4: Well, not really, but... yeah we’re kind of lost. Traveller: Hmmm... Don’t get the wrong idea, but this is a place you wouldn’t want to be in. S2: *confused* Huh? What do you mean? Traveller: *clears throat* This is the land of the Cyclopes. They are rude, lawless giants who follow no god. They are their own laws; I heard they themselves don’t get along well with each other, how much more with you? S1: Haha... well at least they don’t eat men, right? S2: Definitely! *laughs* Traveller: *smiles* They do. ... Traveller: If I were you, I’d go and leave this place as soon as possible. I just really needed to get something here *shows bag* otherwise I wouldn’t have even considered going here. It’s safe around the coast but any further would be insanity. Many have already died. Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you. Now if you may, I would be going now. S2: Alright, pleased to make your acquaintance. (pause) S4: Now what? S5: Let’s go back. Didn’t you hear what he said?

...La marca Apple como un ejemplo del éxito de un modelo de marketing e internacionalización En años recientes, un nuevo fenómeno ha entrado en nuestro estilo de vida, y ha cambiado la manera en que hacemos cosas en la vida cotidiana, que se llama la tecnología. El desarrollo de la tecnología ha producido un impacto tan masivo, que las compañías han tenido que adaptar sus productos para que no se tornen obsoletos con rapidez. La marca Apple ha entendido esta transformación y por ello, ha lanzado productos novedosos que atraigan más a la gente. En este ensayo, hablaré sobre las medidas que Apple está usando para convertirse en una marca que ha logrado un éxito rotundo. Primeramente, tenemos que considerar los factores del marketing que Apple utiliza. Hay evidencia de que Apple se ha concentrado en el aspecto de 'producto' y eso se puede observar en sus productos de lujo y alta calidad que tienen características que ningún otro objeto poseía. Por ejemplo, su estilo compacto es una herramienta que en mi opinión, es su principal diferenciador. Tal es el caso del iPhone, con el cual las posibilidades de lo que podemos hacer con sus aplicaciones en solo un objeto son infinitas; llamar, jugar, escribir, navegar por Internet. Por esta razón, podríamos decir que Apple fue la empresa que aprovechó de la oportunidad de lanzar una nueva marca al mercado y posteriormente, la compañía se dio cuenta que la gente pagaban más dinero con el afán de poseer sus productos en lugar de los...

...compañía de tecnología ha distribuido su primer dividendo desde el año 1995. Este dividendo representaría unos 2.500 millones de dólares. El julio del año pasado, la administración de la compañía acepto la propuesta de ofrecer un dividendo de 2,65 dólares por cada acción de las 973 millones con las que cuentan. Este dividendo, el primero en 17 años, será distribuido trimestralmente. La estrategia de la gigantesca compañía es promover la compra de acciones que perdieron tras el fallecimiento del cofundador, Steve Jobs. Aquellas acciones que perdieron estarían valoradas en 10.000 millones de dólares. Dicho dividendo se estima distribuirse hasta al menos el año 2015. Así mismo, según información revelada a causa del litigio de Apple contra Samsung en base a patentes, se han causado rumores de que en el 2015 Apple podría lanzaría su iCar. El carro de Apple tendría una computadora abordo, la asistencia de Siri, y una cámara que analizaría los gestos del conductor para detectar señales de cansancio. De esta misma manera, la información como la velocidad, el kilometraje, el estado de los fluidos y demás, serán proyectados en el parabrisas. Los espejos laterales del carro también contarían con cámaras que anularían los ángulos muertos y los puntos ciegos y la carrocería estaría fabricada con materiales especiales. Más aún, después de unas semanas duras para las acciones de Apple, se ha empezado a ver un alza en el precio de las acciones ya que hay rumores que aseguran que el 12 de setiembre...

...En este trabajo presentare no solo una empresa si no varias empresas que fracasaron por varias causas. SEGA Una de las más grandes compañías de videojuegos de la historia. Durante años la compañía japonesa nos ofreció consolas increíbles y juegos que se convirtieron en clásicos. La Megadrive fue la consola favorita de toda una generación, pero ahí acabó su reinado, compartido durante años con Nintendo. En este casi faltó analizar el producto e innovarlo con tiempo. En 1994 lanzó su consola de 32 bits, la Sega Saturn. Pese a la gran acogida que tuvo en Japón, la Saturn tuvo unas ventas menores en el resto del mundo. La llegada de la Sony Playstation y decisiones equivocadas en cuanto al hardware. La Saturn era una buena consola, pero era demasiado difícil programar para ella (debido a sus dos procesadores) con lo que la Playstation le acabó por robar a los usuarios, que se decantaron por los juegos de la gris de Sony, que vendió 100 millones de consolas frente a solo 10 por parte de Sega. Para enmendar su error, en 1999 Sega sacó la que probablemente fue su mejor consola, la Dreamcast. Una máquina potente, con multijugador online y un catálogo de juegos espectacular. Pese a vender 36 millones de unidades, tampoco funcionó. La fama que había ganado Sony con su Playstation hizo imposible remontar a tiempo y en 2001 la compañía anunció oficialmente que renunciaba a seguir fabricando consolas para dedicarse en exclusiva al software. Pese a que ahora desarrolla juegos con bastante...
