Just like everyone who watch countless episodes of Sex and The City and Gossip Girl, I love the idea of brunch. Getting all glammed up with your three girlfriends (Yes, it has to be the 4 of us in our iconic looks, always) at 11AM on a Sunday, ready to wash down the martini hangover with a bottle of Ruinart is my preferred way to finish off a weekend of partying with the cast of the Avengers.

Brunch in Vancouver is a totally different story. There’s no satin Dries Van Noten jacket in sight, a pair of extremely cropped Thom Browne pants? Ya, forget about those too. It’s the land of lousy sweatshirts, sad puffer jackets and stretchy leggings, waiting in line for hours, in the rain, for a sub-par, overcooked eggs Benedict and overly starchy potatoes. 

Drinking at brunch in Vancouver is also somehow a taboo. If you decide to drink kombucha and a glass of fourteen dollar cold-pressed juice, it’s your call and I’m happy for you. I, on the other hand, have the right to life, liberty, and the third mimosa –maybe fourth.

In short, I have lost faith in brunch-ing in Vancouver. 

Until recently, I heard the news that Botanist is bringing back boozy brunch – a bougie, boozy brunch too if I may add. Start the meal with a glass of bubbly (appropriate-duh!), and pick a course from the ‘Morning Stretch’ section - relatively smaller bites to get the appetite going. Can never go wrong with the hand-cut beef tartare (smoked yolk, parm foam, caper berries and sourdough) but if it’s too early for something raw (is it ever?), the streusel-y cinnamon-y pancakes (with cream cheese glaze I can’t get enough of) and caramelized banana french toasts are there too.

To accompany those dishes, the star-studded bar team at Botanist also has come up with a series of brunch punch. What’s better than chai tea in the morning? Rum and brandy spiked chai tea! For the same reason why rye-spiked cranberry juice is better than plain cranberry juice.

Once you’re up with a little buzz, the second wave of food should be coming your way. The veal ragu with the house-made spaghettoni is delicious if you’re particularly hungry that morning. The wild mushroom risotto with piave (I just love saying the word piave, thanks Claire!), prosciutto and poached egg will also do the trick. OH! Botanist Benedict goes really well with the second glass of bubbly, by the way.

The $62 boozy, bougie brunch (two drinks, two course) might get a little heavy ( I had to skip dinner heavy) by the end of it, but everything on the menu is available a la carte - so you can pick and choose your own adventure if you will. Save this for special occasions, like Botanist-just-launched-boozy-brunch kind of occasion.

It is 277 miles (446 km) long, up to 18 miles (29 km) wide and as much as 6,093 feet (1,857 m) deep. Although Grand Canyon National Park is currently closed due to COVID-19, the Grand Canyon is the most-photographed natural landmark on Instagram.

ELLINOR STENROOS TALKS A DECADE OF BUSINESS ON THE PARK BLOG

From the archive: July 23rd, 2019

Ten years ago, Ellinor Stenroos, head designer and founder of EVStenroos, wouldn't have imagined running her own business but she will be reflecting on a decade of work at the end of this year! To mark this milestone, she sat down with the PARK team to talk about her journey, biggest achievements, and what is next for EVStenroos.

What do you love most about running your own business?

There is always so much to do. The job I was at prior to this, we mostly worked on wedding and engagement rings, but in my own business I have been able to do fashion accessories and art. I have a much broader spectrum of projects and feel more well-rounded as an artist and designer because of it. I am not limited to a product that is only meant to be worn every day. You have more of an artistic freedom when you go into the art realm of things. What I love most though is the people I meet through my work. Most of my clients have become people I refer to as friends and there is nothing better than clicking with people, feeling cared and supported by them, forming a sincere human connection. The sense of trust and confidence and desire that people have for me to design something for them is such an honour. Especially since I don’t have a storefront or a showroom. It is truly amazing.

What moments or highlights from the last ten years stand out to you the most?

 There are a few. I worked with Lauren Bagliore and adorn models on a runway show at Toronto Fashion week in 2011 + 2012. I created a limited-edition fashion jewellery collection, and watched the models wear my pieces from the front row. I was still relevantly new at the whole being self-employed thing so it was a major moment for me. The next year, I had a solo exhibition of contemporary jewellery art at DaDe ART & DESIGN LAB, now known as DADE LOFT . In 2014 + 2016, my work was published in British Vogue. WestJet magazine wrote a full page feature on me in 2017, and I had work featured in Air Canada’s EnRoute magazine later that year as well.

Read the full interview on the PARK blog

WORK WE LOVE: A NEW MONTHLY FEATURE

Scott Gravelle, CEO of ATTAbotics , and Ellinor had been friends for almost seven years, ever since they met through a mutual friend, before they collaborated together on their first project — an engagement ring for Scott’s partner, Jesse.

 “Jesse isn’t a typical bride — she hasn’t spent her life planning her fairytale wedding so I knew I couldn’t get her a typical ring. I love Ellinor’s work, how she fuses luxury with an architectural element, and I wanted her to design a ring that she would also wear.” - Scott

“Scott told me he wanted an anti-engagement ring. Both he and Jesse had been married previously, so he didn’t want to give her a ring because it was expected but because he truly wanted too. Jesse is really cool. She manages a rock band in Seattle — she has a very distinctive style, it’s edgy and confident, so I knew we had to do something different. Instead of creating just one ring for her, we made a stackable set of five, each one engraved with a personal message.”  - Ellinor

Scott proposed to Jesse during a trip to Paris, and got down on one knee just as the Eiffel tower lit up. 

“I am such a love junkie. I always ask what the plan for is for the proposal. I love all of the different stories and the excitement, and a bit of nervousness, that is captured. My job isn’t done until I know they absolutely loved the piece. Paris is eight hours away and I spent the entire day staring at my phone waiting for Scott to tell me how it went.” - Ellinor

“We designed the rings for Jesse to wear together or separately, but she always wears them together in a stack.” - Scott

RepostBy @farzadthehappybarber: "FBF goes to some time in 2006 when I got a phone call from a lady asking me how do you shave? I said a few hot towels, shave, a couple more hot towels and shave again, and followed by a couple of cold one and I have a happy client. She replied: Can you give me more details about the process? I asked why is that? She replied: I am a journalist calling from enRoute magazine.... people are talking about your shop on internet and we would love to feature you in our magazine, I was NERVOUS by then... asked her, what is EnRoute? She replied: Air Canada’s in flight magazine..... Oh man, my hands were shaking...... a couple of weeks later their photographer came by and .... we were featured in a magazine for the first time ever.......

Fayuca - photo in enRoute - February 2018

[skanda-shastry]

Unlocking the Trillion Dollar Opportunity!!

In 1998, Kodak sold 85% of photo film worldwide.Next few years Digital Camara slowly overlap the photo film.

In 2003, Iconic 1100 phone sold more than 500 million units by Nokia in an year. Which is highest selling phone till now.

In 2010, Blockbuster  one of the most recognizable brand in the video rental space having around 9,000 stores & more than 60,000 employees. The company filed for bankruptcy protection.

In 2015, All the telecom operator in world together send 20B messages, which is less than 30B message send by the WhatsApp in a day.

All the above well-known & monopoly companies are bankrupt & certainly there business model disappears!!

“People think the CEO/directors of those companies must have been dumb not to see what was happening, but they were not dumb, they were very, very talented people, but they still missed the transition and made assumptions that were shown to be pretty poor in hindsight, but seemed fine at the time”. This highlights the importance of having someone in the organisation asking, constantly, what are our competitors doing to disrupt our business and our business model.

We stand on the brink of a technological revolution that will fundamentally alter the way we live, work, and relate to one another. In its scale, scope, and complexity, this transformation will be unlike anything humankind has experienced before.This exponential growth transformed our life tremendously, in just a few years.

So what does disruption mean in this context?

Change that occurs when new digital technology & business model affect the value proposition of an existing goods & service, doing business, social interaction & more generally  “WAY OF THINKING”.

Welcome to the ‘Exponential age of the Digital ERA’

These are the some area where Disruption is/was/will happened rapidly. & we saw the visible change in our daily life due to the disruption.

Print/Media/Entertainment

The role of traditional media has changed dramatically in the age of the internet-driven, 24-hour news cycle and the proliferation of social media. Technology will change the way of consuming the news. Newspaper no longer been an Ads or promotional channel. New generation consume news via Inshort,Dailyhunt,Buzzfeed,scoopwhoop,Reddit,Flipboard,Twitter,Facebook. & It’s generate more traffic than traditional newspaper,magazine,tv combine together. Its revenue & subscriber drastically reduced.Business model is slowly disappear.

Even world’s largest book publishers like Penguin,Pearson,McGraw-Hill face the heat of ebooks,iReader,kindle,online reader,audiobook,podcast,digital library.

Likewise, Largest music companies like Sony,HMV,T-series, & other bricks and mortar business are fight for the survival. With a plethora of services such as Pandora, Spotify, soundcloud, Hulu,and Scribd, subscription-based entertainment is becoming more and more ubiquitous across different types of media.

another example of digital disruption is the way Netflix is eating into the profits of CBS. Until few years ago, people could watch shows,movie etc only on television sets, home rental services. These shows etc were broadcasted to their TV sets by CBS, NBC, or Blockbuster.With the entry of Netflix and Youtubes the mode of delivery of videos has changed.

Technology giants like Facebook,Google,Netflix,Amazon make a major damage to their business model Bottom 👊🏼👊🏼 ✔️ $16.4Billion vs $17.9 Billion in past year its an revenue of all the news paper together in US vs FACEBOOK.

✔️ In 2011, Netflix suppressed the 20 million subscribers in the USA & Canada, making it the world’s leading subscription service for movies & TV show.

Transportation

The simplest & most famous example I can think of right now is the disruption created by cab companies like Uber/ Ola to private fleets of yellow taxis. The regular taxis relied on hand signals while plying empty on roads — or simply waiting at a taxi stand for a passenger to turn up. With Uber/Ola coming up with an easy to use mobile app to book cabs, there has been a huge digital disruption to regular taxis.

Automatic Car (Driverless car/ SelfDriving Car ) By the year end google & Uber come up with the self driving car. which is Code red for many drivers & other automakers. Most car companies might become bankrupt. Traditional car companies try the evolutionary approach and just build a better car, while tech companies will do the revolutionary approach & looking to reinvent the wheel.

Tesla go further in this research on most energy efficient electric cars & also huge invest in the mass transportation using Magnetic-Levitation system like Hyperloop.

Along with this new Ideas empowered with technology, it will disrupt the whole mode of transportation.

E-commerce & retail

As technology continues to advance, we see a shift in consumer expectations, which, in turn, leads to retailers rethinking their in-store strategies.Amazon already opened a supermarket without cash registers. You walk in, you take what you need and you walk out. Sensors and cameras automatically measure what you take and put everything on your credit card. In addition, Mobile, cloud, analytics,VR,Digital money and social media will be fully integrated into a unified merchandising system designed to vastly improve customer engagement.

Retail Industries are moving from small Kirana shops -> brick & mortar model -> departmental store -> hypermarkets(Metro,Walmart) -> Ecommerce shop (Virtual Shop,Drone delivery)

Bottom 👊🏼👊🏼

✔️ In america, Amazon takes market value $355.9B vs $297.8 market cap of all the retailers together which include Walmart, Target, Best Buy & others. 

✔️ India’s E-commerce Revenue is expected to jump from $30 billion in 2016 to $100 billion in 2020.

Financial Services

The financial sector in India is currently experiencing a golden age, and its biggest driver is the effort to move toward a less-cash economy.In India, JAM (Jan Dhan, Aadhaar, Mobile)Enroute to the digital payments gaining the proportions of a mass movement. Majaorly due to the technology Innovation, New Business Model,Demographics,customer experience,mobile, it will disrupt the many vertical of Banking,Insurance,stock broking,payment,wealth management & many more financial services. Established technology firms are developing new products that enable the creation of new business models with enormous existing customer bases.

Trends in the financial sector

✔️Electronic trading now makes up almost 70% of all volume on the New York Stock Exchange and half of that is algorithmic trading. ✔️Electronic clearing of cheque (ECS) like IMPS,NEFT,RTGS,International Remittance make an ease of customer experience and also disrupt the traditional money transfers like checks and money orders. ✔️Starting of new payment bank (Airtel,Birla),small banks & mobile wallet(Paytm,Mobikwik),UPI (BHIM,PhonePe) help to reach the financial services to large audience. ✔️Intraducation of plastic money (Debit,Credit cards) Digital currency (Bitcoin, blockchain) promote the cashless economy. ✔️️Unbinding banking service from financial technology provide seamless experience in online/mobile banking, P2P Payments (Paypal,RuPay),Bill Payments.(Instamojo,billDesk,CCAvenue). ✔️Along with this lot of Fintech companies resolve problem in the different financial vertical like taxes (cleartax),Lending (Lendingkart),Personal Finance(FundsIndia) & many more. reach the common man in the societ

Telecom/Technology

Digitization is profoundly changing the competitive boundaries of the telecom industry. Core voice and messaging businesses have continued to shrink, in part because of regulatory pressures, but also because social media has opened new communications channels beyond traditional voice service.

After Graham bell discover Phone, next 100 years its never change its design.& AT & T realise its importance when mobile phone hit the market. same is in Set Top Box also.

Timeline Postcard →Telegram →Telephone →Radio →OpticalFiber →Internet→Email →Pager →Smartphone →MMS →VoIP

Day where we were charged us for messages to the Free internet, We are come up with the long way of voice to data migration.& also we move from telecom operators (AT &T/Verizon) to technology giants like (Google/Facebook) for communication. In Upcoming days technologies like 5G,MuLTEfire,IoT will completely vanishes the existing communication ways.

We’re at a critical time where Technology has eaten the world. Traditional industries such as automotive, fossil fuels, medical, insurance and real estate will be massively disrupted. IBMs Watson,Google deepmind computer is a perfect illustration of this computing power and it is set to disrupt traditional industries. ✔️Because of Watson, you can get legal advice within seconds and with 90% accuracy compared with 70% accuracy when done by humans. ✔️Adidas setup an 2 robotic shoe manufacturing plant in Germany.which is completely automated. ✔️Tesla is built an Gigafactory in Nevada which has complete automatic production line. ✔️️AI slowly eaten our workforce BPO services replace with bots ✔️Moving from31/2 Floppy to the Virtual Storage system Cloud Computing & big data will alter the definition of the Storage.

In less than 10 years, 📱 replaced:

📟 ☎️ 📠 💽 💾 💻 ⏰ 📷 📹 🎥 📺 📻 📰 💿 💳 💼 📎 📄 ⏳ 🔦 📼 📚 ⌚️ 🎮 📓 ✏️ 📁 🎤 📇 📆 🎰 💵 📬 📝 🆘 🏧 🎫 ✉️ 📤 ✒️ 📊 📋 🔎 🔑 📣 🎼 🎬 📀

Finally:

“In the new world, Its not the BigFish which eats the small fish, Its the fast fish which eat the slow fish”

All the above example, there is one thing is common that Business model move from traditional pipeline model to the Platform model. irrespective of the domain.

Platform business models!! Enable plug-and-play infrastructure into which producers and consumers can directly plug in, and they then govern the market interactions that ensue on top of the infrastructure.

We see pipes everywhere. Every consumer good that we use essentially comes to us via a pipe. All of manufacturing runs on a pipe model. Television and Radio are pipes spewing out content at us. Our education system is a pipe where teachers push out their ‘knowledge’ to children. Had the internet not come up, we would never have seen the emergence of platform business models. Unlike pipes, platforms do not just create and push stuff out. They allow users to create and consume value. At the technology layer, external developers can extend platform functionality using APIs. At the business layer, users (producers) can create value on the platform for other users (consumers) to consume. This is a massive shift from any form of business we have ever known in our industrial hangover.

Even before Internet there Platforms have existed for years. Malls link consumers and merchants; newspapers connect subscribers and advertisers. What’s changed in this century is that information technology has profoundly reduced the need to own physical infrastructure and assets. & increase the Network/marketplace/Communities,technology infrastructure,User/ProducerData. this will create great value to the product.

Platform business models gives lot of flexible in User acquisition,Product Design,Monetization.

Very few areas like Education & Healthcare still we difficult to break the pipe model.

How to survive??

1) Keep innovating, inventing

2) Survival for the fittest

3) keep update with technology

4) Winner take all, there is no second place

5) Mobile phone is entry point for the most of the things

What do Google’s crawlers, Uber’s drivers, and Instagram’s selfie-clickers have in common? In a world of platforms, they create the fuel needed to facilitate economic and social exchanges that power business and society.

Labirinto della Masone, located just outside of Parma, Italy, is the world’s largest bamboo labyrinth. Taking the shape of an eight-pointed star, the labyrinth is made up of 200,000 bamboo plants, some as much as 49 feet (15 m) tall. For a sense of scale, this entire complex covers about 17 acres (6.87 hectares).
