25. INTERNAL RISK FACTORS

Innovation risk is an economic category of the probability of an unfavorable outcome when investing in production. One of the types of innovation risk is internal (managed) risks.

Internal risk factors include factors determined by the activities of the enterprise itself: the business activity of the enterprise management, the choice of the optimal marketing strategy, policy and tactics, as well as indicators: production potential, technical equipment, level of specialization, level of labor productivity, level of compliance with safety regulations.

Also, internal (managed) innovation risk factors are divided into risk factors of the main, auxiliary activities of participants and specific risk factors.

Risk factors for the main activity of the enterprise - these include production risk factors: violations of technological discipline, unscheduled shutdowns of equipment, accidents, violations of the supply of raw materials and components, economic violations and crimes.

These include:

1) the risk of non-sale of new products and technologies of the company due to insufficient material, technical and raw material bases; shortage of raw materials, materials and components; non-conclusion of a supply contract or non-return of the prepayment by the supplier;

2) commercial risk (marketing and business);

3) the risk arising from non-repayment of borrowed funds;

4) the risk associated with the implementation of an innovative project;

5) operational (production) risks;

6) risks in which unforeseen costs and revenue reductions arise;

7) risks under which competition intensifies;

8) the risk of non-receipt or insufficient level of external investment.

The risk factors of auxiliary activities include: power outages, emergency repairs of equipment, accidents in ventilation devices and life support systems (sewerage), violations by subcontractors of their contractual obligations, etc.

Specific risks include:

1) the risk at which the direction of research is incorrectly chosen;

2) scientific and technical risk;

3) the risk at which a negative scientific result was obtained;

4) the risk of an incorrect assessment of future prospects for completing R&D and (or) R&D;

5) the risk of erroneous project selection;

6) the risk of low scientific qualification of the personnel base;

7) scaling risk;

8) risk in which there is no patent purity;

9) risks associated with securing property rights for an innovative project (insufficient patenting; patent opposition; legal and illegal imitation);

10) risk when new products and technologies are not certified;

11) the risk of conservation.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

External hard drives for social media users 19.06.2012

The new hard drives allow one-button backup of photos and videos stored on Facebook and Flickr. Seagate Technology has introduced a new line of external hard drives - Backup Plus. The new drives are the first on the market designed to automatically back up user photos and videos stored on Facebook and Flickr, according to the manufacturer's press service.

"It's an interesting idea to back up photos and videos stored on social networks to a local device. I think this will help people understand the benefits of storing multiple copies of content, regardless of where it is originally located," commented Brett Sappington ( Brett Sappington, director of research at Parks Associates, "Social media has been playing the role of a huge repository of personal digital content for some time now, and most users don't think they can lose that data."

More than half of Americans (54%) have experienced a file loss or have a friend who has lost information, according to a survey commissioned by Harris Interactive for Seagate in late May. More than a quarter (27%) of those surveyed lost personal files. Moreover, of all respondents, only 11% regularly use reservations.

When using Backup Plus hard drives, backing up photos and videos from Facebook and Flickr is done at the touch of a button using the included Seagate Dashboard software. The same software allows you to upload content from your hard drive to the Internet, as well as make backup copies of files stored on a personal computer to which the drive is connected.

The Seagate Backup Plus lineup includes 2,5GB, 500GB, and 750TB 1-inch pocket models with MSRPs of $120, $130, and $140, respectively, and 3,5TB, 1TB, 2TB, and 3TB desktop models (4 inches) priced at $130, $150, $180, and $250 respectively for Windows computers. Macs are available in 500GB and 1TB mobile models for $120 and $140, and 2TB and 3TB desktop models for $190 and $210, respectively.
