IPO Application Status

Thinking of jumping into the stock market with an IPO? It's like stepping into a whole new world of investment opportunities, but you’ve got to stay on top of things to make sure you don’t miss out. The IPO process can be a bit of a whirlwind, especially with so much happening once you’ve submitted your application. The key part is staying updated and checking in regularly on how things are going with your application. One way to keep track of your progress is by checking your IPO application status. This step is crucial because it helps you know if you’ve been allotted shares, or if you need to try your luck with another IPO down the line.

Make sure to have your application number and other details handy when you check. Getting an update means you’ll have a clearer idea of whether you’re in or out, and it’s all part of the excitement of the stock market game. With the right timing and a bit of research, the journey to owning shares in a company just got a lot more interesting!

UPI is becoming a necessary tool for transferring money or paying bills. You can make all types of payments that you require with a few taps on your smartphone at any time of day. The ability to apply for an Initial Public Offering (IPO) through your UPI ID has been added for your convenience. The Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) has made the UPI method mandatory for ordinary investors who apply through registered brokers, depository participants (DPs), and Registrar and Transfer Agents (RTAs). Now, the procedure is much more precise and less complicated.

the charm of Powerwash Simulator is somewhat dampened by its extremely buggy achievements bc i KNOW i could get all 40 so fuckin easy if they just WORKED. i didn't get the "main campaign completed!" achievement despite spending nearly forty hours 100%ing every job, so i think the rarity of the achievements is somewhat inaccurate, bc it's more like, did you happen to play through that level at a time when the achievement was working? despite all that, it has been incredibly effective at damping generalized moving anxiety and it's a tremendous catch-up-on-podcasts game. it's hysterical to me this was published by square enix bc this style of simulator game is usually published by Playway or a Playway company, a shadowy network of about a hundred small polish studios, many of which went public and had IPOs in order to hand over a controlling interest of the company to Playway. long history of annoying business practices such as remaking more popular games with the serial numbers filed off and making demos to gauge interest and THEN only making about one full game for every twenty demos, which is very irritating for players. not this one tho, it's in fucking brighton in the uk, no relation!

Was having Dog Thoughts so here I am infodumping about dog breeds I like

Dutch Shepherd:

Literally the perfect dog (at least for me). The intelligence, handler focus, and biddability (is this a word? It is now) are my ideal. Something as simple as playing fetch with a dutchie is on a completely different level. While I'm partial to the FCI dogs, I do see the appeal of the KNPV dutchies, but they're (generally speaking) a little much for me. They're, imo, the perfect dog for me to do sports with, but also the perfect dog to take on a backpacking trip over a long weekend. I can really only say good things about dutchies, and they have a hold on me like no other dog breed has before. Every article I've read or video I've watched talking about the negatives of a Dutch Shepherd, all I've been able to think is "that sounds fine I'm down for that." In fact, what most people would consider downsides in any shepherd dog I've only been able to see them as quirks or upsides, and that goes double for dutchies. When I get a dutchie in the near future (I am manifesting next year as the Year of the Dutchie), sports I want to do include: Mondio Ring, nosework, and dock diving, but honestly a Dutch Shepherd is the perfect dog for me to try out most sports I'm interested in.

German Shepherd (specifically DDR/Czech Working Line):

This is my favorite type of GSD. GSDs are usually less intense than a Dutch Shepherd, and I do see the appeal in that. However, from what I've read, that might not be applicable to DDR GSDs. Apparently, back in the day when there was still an East and West Germany, West German GSDs were always out done by East German (DDR) GSDs. For example, if a West German dog had to do a track with seven articles, a DDR dog would do a ten article track with at least one turn. DDRs also have thicker coats and are overall bigger dogs. The size is a downside for me personally, and I also don't really like how often breeders only seem to title their working line GSDs in IPO/IGP and barely anything else, and that applies to most working line GSD breeders I've looked at in the States. If I got a DDR (which I personally do not plan on doing) I'd probably actually stay away from bite sports unless I found a breeder who was titling at least some of their dogs in Ring Sports, but I would definitely do a TON of nosework with a GSD, and possibly some herding as well.

Canaan Dogs:

This dog is like the proto-shepherd. One of if not the oldest dog breeds in the world, they were feral less than 100 years ago, and that is still reflected in their temperament. They are the only dog breed I've ever heard of as being conditional when it comes to work/relationship with the dog, kind of like a person. They're a little on the small size for me (averaging under 50 lbs), and from what I've read they don't have nearly as much energy as a dutchie or GSD. They're also an extremely rare breed. Herding and nosework would definitely be my sports of choice for a Canaan, since herding is what they've been bred to do since antiquity, and nosework is what they're bred a lot for now. This is also the only dog on here that is not capable of bitework, but they are an incredibly alert dog.

STARTUP: Concepts, Challenges, and Design Thinking Processes!

During the Startup Weekend event, Engr. Diones A. Pascua, a proficient electronics engineer, entrepreneur, and esteemed faculty member at USTP, delivered a captivating presentation on the concept of Design Thinking. He elucidated the essence of Design Thinking, demonstrated its practical applications in various scenarios, and elucidated its role in enhancing the creativity and problem-solving abilities of emerging startups.

WHAT IS A STARTUP?

A startup is a fresh, mostly modest business founded by entrepreneurs or individuals with new ideas and plans for growth. These businesses are distinguished by their major concentration on developing and introducing unique products, services, or technology to the market. Startups frequently operate in developing or disruptive industries, with the goal of meeting specific market demands or challenges. They usually start with a small amount of money and may seek investments from venture capitalists, angel investors, or crowdfunding to help them develop and progress. Most startups' primary goal is to achieve quick development and scalability, either establishing themselves as successful businesses or executing a profitable exit strategy, such as being purchased or going public via an initial public offering (IPO).

CONCEPT, INNOVATION, AND PROBLEM-SOLVING SKILLS

The speaker starts by defining a startup as a temporary organization whose primary goal is to investigate and identify a viable and sustainable business model. A startup's overarching goal is to grow from a single initiative or concept into a scalable and respectable business. The speaker also emphasizes the critical role that startups play in bringing in fresh and disruptive ideas across multiple industries.

The discussion then shifts to the importance of problem-solving in the context of startups. The speaker emphasizes the importance of identifying and solving the correct challenges, as a significant amount of firms fail owing to a misplaced focus on unimportant concerns.

To properly address this difficulty, they propose for a human-centered design approach, which entails carefully identifying and resolving social challenges that truly matter.

In essence, the speaker establishes the groundwork by describing startups as transient organizations tasked with developing long-term business strategies. They emphasize startups' transformative potential into scalable and respected businesses, citing influential disruptors as examples. Furthermore, the topic shifts to the critical role of problem-solving in the startup scene, emphasizing the need for a human-centered approach to ensure that businesses address relevant social concerns.

WHY DO STARTUPS FAIL?

When a startup lacks a thorough understanding of its customers' wants and concerns, it has substantial hurdles in developing a product that truly resonates with the market. This situation frequently occurs when entrepreneurs fail to devote time and effort in actively interacting and empathizing with their target audience. Instead, they may choose to produce items exclusively based on their own ideas or personal tastes, which may or may not coincide with their consumers' genuine preferences and needs. As a result, a product that fails to catch the interest or necessity of the target audience may be created, resulting in a lack of customers and insufficient income generating.

The startup may suffer as a result of this imbalance. A product that is unpleasant or irrelevant can turn away potential customers, hindering the startup's growth and survival. Without a significant client base or sufficient revenue streams, the firm may find itself in a perilous position, unable to sustain its operations. In the worst-case scenario, this negative environment may force the firm to close since it is no longer financially viable.

In essence, a startup's success is dependent on its capacity to understand and adapt to its consumers' true preferences and wants. Neglecting this critical factor might have a negative impact on the startup's viability and long-term prospects in a competitive business landscape.

DESIGN THINKING PROCESSES

EMPATHIZE

The concept of "emphatize" is not only crucial in established design thinking and problem-solving methodologies but also holds particular significance in the context of startups. In the tumultuous journey of building a startup from the ground up, the emphasis on empathy can be a game-changer. This critical phase involves immersing oneself, as a startup founder or team, in the perspectives of potential users and customers to gain profound insights into their emotions, desires, and needs.

Startups, by their nature, often grapple with the challenge of defining their value proposition and creating products or services that resonate with a target audience. This is where empathy becomes a foundational element of success. Understanding the emotional and practical aspects of potential customers' lives is essential for startups to identify the problems or pain points that their solutions should address.

DEFINE

For startups, this practice is pivotal primarily in two key aspects: communicating their value proposition and defining their scope.

Firstly, startups must articulate their value proposition with utmost clarity. This involves explaining in a succinct manner what their product or service does, how it addresses a specific problem or need, and why it is superior to existing alternatives.

Secondly, startups need to define their scope and limitations accurately. It's essential to specify what their product or service encompasses and what it doesn't. This clarity is crucial in managing expectations among stakeholders, including customers, investors, and team members.

Thus, the act of providing a clear and concise justification or description is not just a linguistic exercise for startups. It's a strategic imperative that helps them communicate their unique value, manage expectations, and stay on course amid the challenges of the entrepreneurial journey.

IDEATE

The creative process is a fundamental element in the journey of startups, as it plays a pivotal role in generating innovative ideas, solutions, and strategies to tackle the unique challenges and opportunities they encounter. At its core, being creative in the context of startups involves the generation of a multitude of ideas, thoughts, and potential answers to address the myriad tasks and problems they face. This creative thinking is characterized by its freedom from constraints and the absence of snap judgments or premature assessments of the various alternatives.

For startups, creativity is not just a luxury; it's a strategic imperative. The dynamic and often unpredictable nature of the entrepreneurial landscape demands a constant influx of fresh ideas and inventive approaches. Whether it's devising a novel product concept, refining a business model, or crafting a compelling marketing strategy, startups must continuously explore diverse creative avenues to gain a competitive edge.

PROTOTYPE

In the realm of startups, the concept of a preliminary model or representation, often referred to as a "prototype," holds immense significance. This prototype serves as a tangible manifestation of an idea, system, or product, designed to test and illustrate how it functions, appears, and its feasibility within the startup's context. Before proceeding with full-scale production or deployment, startups often create a prototype, which is typically a scaled-down version employed to gather valuable feedback and iteratively refine the final product or concept.

Startups face numerous uncertainties and risks, particularly when introducing innovative solutions to the market. The creation of a prototype is a critical step in mitigating these uncertainties and validating the viability of their ideas. By developing a working model or representation, startups can assess the feasibility of their concept, identify potential flaws, and gauge whether the proposed solution aligns with market demands.

TEST

The systematic evaluation and testing of products, systems, concepts, or ideas are essential practices within the realm of startups. These processes serve as the bedrock for achieving product-market fit, enhancing user experience, and ensuring the overall success and sustainability of the startup venture. By methodically assessing usability, efficacy, quality, and performance, startups can navigate the challenges of the competitive landscape with confidence and deliver solutions that resonate with their target audience.

Testing, in this context, involves conducting structured experiments or examinations to pinpoint strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement across various dimensions, such as usability, efficacy, quality, and performance.

CONCLUSION

In summary, the discussion casts a spotlight on the critical significance of startups in the realm of innovation and entrepreneurship. Startups are often the catalysts for transformative change and disruption in various industries. They possess a unique agility and capacity to challenge established norms, identify unmet needs, and drive innovative solutions. This ability to provoke disruption is a hallmark of startups, setting them apart from more established competitors.

Furthermore, the emphasis on problem-solving resonates deeply with the core essence of entrepreneurship. Startups are essentially problem-solving entities, constantly seeking to address pressing issues or capitalize on untapped opportunities. Whether it's through technological innovation, process optimization, or novel business models, startups are at the forefront of devising creative solutions that shape the future.

Startups represent the vanguard of innovation, driving change and disruption across diverse industries. They thrive on problem-solving, human-centered design, and a thoughtful, strategic approach to entrepreneurship. These principles underscore their ability to not only survive but thrive in a competitive business landscape, shaping the future of innovation and entrepreneurship.

YSEALI Seeds: SIDHI Mentorship

About the Project

Realized in 2018 by three then-students who dreamed of raising the bar of science and research education in the Philippines, SIDHI (Science Integrated Direction for High School Investigators) is a non-profit, volunteer organization established to connect aspiring high school students who would like to do research with Filipino STEM professionals who can guide them throughout their project in pursuit of science. With this, the founders hope that high school students in the Philippines can be more empowered to fulfill their potential towards a STEM career.

Why do you care about this specific topic/issue?

The Philippines has a longstanding issue in its lack of scientists and researchers, and there are several high school students who have what it takes to be great STEM professionals but have doubts and worries about the pursuit of such a career. We feel that this stems from a lack of a support system and models to learn from who are successful in various fields of STEM. With SIDHI, we can hopefully bridge this gap and help students be more enlightened about what lies ahead in a career in STEM and research.

Why did you decide to start this project?

The three founders of SIDHI are products of a Filipino science high school and have seen how difficult it is, even for students who are already in specialized science schools, to do research and see how much more they can do in the field. Research itself is a tiring endeavor that seems impossible to do without prior guidance, and yet, even high school research teachers are limited in their capacity to support; they are likely underpaid yet overworked, thus being incapable of providing direct and laser-focused guidance to students. With SIDHI, a mentee can be matched to one mentor who can focus on helping them with their research to alleviate the burden from the research teachers and reinforce the learning of the students.

What are your goals for this project?

With this project, we hope to support and help mentees’ research projects succeed in whichever goals they may want to achieve.

How will YSEALI Seeds help you achieve your goals?

The support from YSEALI Seeds firstly helped us expand our reach and network and help more students with their research by being able to provide them more learning opportunities and resources that can help them create meaningful projects and research.

What have you accomplished and implement so far?

In the past we’ve mentored research projects that won in research competitions and even applied for IPO patent applications in the country. We hope to help more students realize their passion for science.

What are the most significant lessons learned you’ve experienced so far?

We realized so far that the problem of science and research in the Philippines is systemic and we are still limited with what we can do on a policy-level; however, we have plenty to achieve on simply empowering and making our mentees understand that they have what it takes to pursue STEM. Most of the students opt against STEM due to several doubts and misconceptions that are no longer systemic in nature, but rather reinforced by stereotypes and unfounded beliefs. We want them to be connected with mentors who understand these concerns so they can see more clearly how a career in STEM suits them.

What are the success stories you can share with others who would like to do the same type of activity and/or project like yours?

We’ve had a recent mentee from our last cohort who insisted on wanting to be part of our mentorship program since she wanted to participate in a global research competition. She had a particular research topic in mind but did not know where to start or how to even start programming, which was essential for the implementation of her project. We matched her with a project mentor who was an expert in that field and who guided her throughout the year on what she needed to learn. Upon the end of her project, she expressed so much gratitude and emphasized strongly how extremely helpful the mentorship was. These are some stories, among others, that we receive wherein the students feel very relieved and grateful for having someone who knows the process of research guide them throughout the procedure. The awards and achievements of our mentees in their research, although fulfilling, is simply a bonus compared to their words of thankfulness.

Help @samsimisauser ! I have gone down a rabbit hole, and much like Alice in Wonderland, need to have a good nap or am hallucinating.

I have found a few interesting things regarding the law in France and the hypothetical suing of Felix using Adrien’s image.

First up, there is no precedent law in France. While the US and UK and most other English speaking countries use common law which is based on precedent, the French use civil law, which means that the judges should not have any jurisdiction to make the law, they only execute the law. Seems pretty civil? [1] But since there are no real-life precedents of a possible sentibeing using your image for ill-intent we don’t really know what the outcome would be anyway.

So in the French civil code Article 9, or droits a l’image (Image Rights), protects your image from unauthorised use and covers concepts such as the right to protect one’s honour and the right to control one’s image [2]. The civil code has been extended over time and extends to privacy laws and more recently the use of your image in social media has also been added, which gives you the right to remove your image from Google or other platforms [3]. Other areas this may relate to may be printing of the person’s private life in the media [2].

For well known figures, use of their image is protected. For example, the use of famous French musicians Johnny Halliday and Sylvie Vartan or Gerard Depardieu have been protected. Exceptions for the use of your image may be freedom of speech or if your image is used for the purpose of parody or humour, as defined by Article 10 of the European Convention of Human Rights or the French Liberty of the Press, however significant hurdles and burdens of proof may be faced in the French court [3].

An example of how the application of the law can differ depending on your legal jurisdiction, Scarlet Johansson had successfully sued a French author for the use of her person in a book. If this was under American law, this would be covered by the first amendment, however under French law personality rights are taken seriously [4]. Since there is no humour or parody involved, this work would also not be covered by the exception.

Another question is if Adrien’s image is a trademark [6]. Natural objects cannot be trademarked, including humans and faces. Unless Gabriel Agreste can give an example as to why Adrien is actually a design and not a person, then that point stands. As such, a celebrity’s person is therefore again covered by personality rights.

Nevertheless there is marketability in being a celebrity and other aspects of celebrity culture, such as endorsements. As such, the US has publicity rights which grants a celebrity to merchandising monopolies, however this is not the case in UK or Australian law [6] and this issue as far as I can tell remains murky under European law and member states [7,8].

As a side note, in the UK and Australia for example, the celebrity may use the tort of Passing off, which can be used in the case of unauthorised use of their image, leading to misinformation and loss of trust in their brand [8].

The exception to this trademark rule in regards to the face lies in distinctiveness. Similarly, the European Union IPO has granted trademarks for the use of photos of people / portraits without text in the past (think Colonel Sanders) [9]. This faces a higher burden of proof to establish if a persons image is a characteristic that gives substantial value to goods. I would say in the case of Adrien’s face and it’s association with the Gabriel Agreste brand that it would be easy to define.

However would Felix’s own face be seen as his own and not Adrien’s? In the case of impersonations, it is recommended that the use of images of public figures must be clearly indicated that these are impersonations to avoid confusion [2]. Moreover, if the private figure has not received consent, the public figure may be liable to receiving compensation [2].

I haven’t taken into account the fact that Adrien is a minor, but his image was used with the consent of his parent(s).

This was fun! Happy to hear any other thoughts on this.

ASBA stands for Application Supported by Blocked Amount. The amount applied is blocked in the investor’s bank account until the allotment of shares has been completed as part of the procedure utilised in India for applications to Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) or rights issues. Only if the investor receives their shares will their account be debited during this process. The money is returned to the investor’s bank account if the allotment still needs to be completed.
