Ivy brings a wealth of experience in public relations and a nuanced understanding of the U.S.-China macro relationship, making her insights invaluable for companies navigating these waters.Introduction to Ivy YangEmail Ivy: ivy@waveletnyc.comIvy's SubstackConnect on LinkedInVisit Wavelet StrategyIvy Yang is the founder of Wavelet Strategy, holds a BA from NYU, and an MBA from Columbia. Her extensive background in crisis management, financial media reporting, and media relations offers invaluable perspectives, particularly in the realm of cross-cultural business between the U.S. and China. Ivy also contributes to the Financial Times Chinese and has a Substack blog called "Calling the Shots," which is highly recommended for anyone interested in these topics.TikTok, RedNote, and The User Migration PhenomenonThe conversation kicks off with a hot topic: the potential shutdown of TikTok in the U.S. and the ripple effects on its massive user base. Ivy shares her perspective on the current media reports suggesting an imminent shutdown, drawing parallels with past events in other countries. As users consider migrating to RedNote (Xiaohongshu), Ivy provides her firsthand insights into this platform, noting its unique user experience compared to TikTok.Highlighting the Cultural Exchange on RedNoteIvy emphasizes the fascinating dynamic of TikTok "refugees" transitioning to RedNote, a starkly Chinese platform with no translation features. This migration, Ivy notes, represents an act of protest and defiance against geopolitical narratives. She describes the rich cultural exchanges unfolding in RedNote's comment sections, reminiscent of past platforms like Clubhouse that fostered U.S.-China dialogues.The Cross-Border Challenges for Chinese BrandsArt and Ivy delve into broader challenges faced by Chinese brands in the U.S., notably in building trust amid geopolitical tensions. Ivy underscores the significance of defining a dual narrative to maintain a global brand perception while acknowledging Chinese roots and operations. Art adds to the discussion by highlighting brands like Lenovo that have navigated these waters successfully, contrasting them with current challenges faced by apps like TikTok and Shein.Managing U.S. Perceptions and Media RelationsThe conversation explores the critical role of media relations in shaping public perception. Ivy argues that Chinese companies need to engage more proactively with media to manage narratives before they become defined by external forces. She stresses the importance of transparency and adapting to U.S. cultural norms in hiring and operations.Practical Advice for Chinese Companies Entering the U.S. MarketIvy concludes with practical strategies for Chinese brands entering the U.S. market:Adopt Cultural Norms: Understand U.S. hiring practices and navigate media relations with transparency.Strategize Media Relations: Engage in active narrative management, especially during crises, by supplying context and data to reporters.Own Communication Channels: Develop robust owned media strategies to swiftly communicate your company's stance and developments. Substack and other platforms can be effective for reaching niche, influential audiences.ConclusionThis episode serves as a crucial guide for navigating the complex landscape of U.S.-China business relations. Ivy Yang's insights illuminate how companies can better manage their cross-cultural narratives, engage with media, and respect local norms to succeed in the U.S. market. For those interested in more of Ivy's perspectives, her blog, "Calling the Shots," provides deeper dives into these topics.

This is, he points out, a year in which half of humanity is going to the polls, with 1.4 billion Indians entitled to vote. But with press freedoms being curtailed, is the country sleepwalking into becominging a managed democracy and can it maintain growth while reducing its serious unemployment problems, particularly among young graduates? He also looks at the problems global companies have with mounting geo-political tensions and why economists need to think precisely about populism, as political scientists have for some time.

Also, some companies might be covered more than once and there are also 8 article links below that time didn't allow me to review them here. ------------------------------------------------------------- List of Clean 200 companies captures the green transition in full flight I'm beginning this podcast with one of my favorite company rankings that has just been released! It's on corporateknights.com and titled List of Clean 200 companies captures the green transition in full flight. The introduction is by Rick Spence. Here are some quotes by Mr. Spence. “Released by Corporate Knights and California-based shareholder advocates As You Sow on February 15, the 11th Clean200 ranking captures the green transition in full flight, cataloguing those public companies that are earning the most from sustainable sources. Crucially, it also signals to investors – venture capitalists, institutions and individuals alike – that a wide range of companies are capitalizing on new-economy principles without sacrificing annual returns or opportunities for growth. Between July 1, 2016, and January 15, 2024, Clean200 companies generated a total return of 103.5%. Although they underperformed the MSCI ACWI broad market index, which grew 114.4%, the Clean200 trounced the key index of global fossil fuel companies (the MSCI ACWI/Energy Index), which gained only 64.5% through those years. And that's the big deal, says As You Sow CEO Andrew Behar, who co-authored the 2024 study. ‘In 2016, we created the Clean200 in response to investors saying, if we divest fossil fuels, there is nothing to invest in.' Eight years later, the message is clear: ‘Investors who are not tilting their portfolios toward a clean future do so at their own peril.' Top Companies In first place again is Apple (AAPL)… Other blue-chip names on the list include Tesla (TSLA) (number three), HP (HPQ) (five), Microsoft (MSFT) (six), Daimler (DTG.DE) (12), BMW (BMW.DE) (16), Nissan (NSANY) (36), Nike (NKE) (50), Swatch (UHR.SW) (157) and even the iconic U.S. Steel (X) (177) – which recently committed to being zero-carbon by 2050. ‘Our mission is to shine a light on the heroes of the battle against climate change,' notes report co-author Toby Heaps, CEO of Corporate Knights. ‘The 2024 Clean200 proves there are true sustainability champions out there. The key is to rigorously apply a scientifically inspired method to identify these gems.' In total, Clean200 companies earned more than $2.2 trillion in sustainable revenue in 2022, deriving on average 54.7% of their revenues from sustainable business activities, versus 13.6% for their MSCI ACWI peers… The ranking excludes firms involved in industries such as fossil fuels, deforestation, prisons, weapons and tobacco – as well as companies that engage in blocking climate policies. Leading the pack is the U.S., with 39 companies making the list this year. Other blooming centres of corporate sustainability are China (23), Japan (18) and France (13), followed by Brazil, Canada and Germany with 10 companies each.” End quotes ------------------------------------------------------------- 13 Best Renewable Energy Stocks To Buy According to Hedge Funds Next up is back to energy with this article titled 13 Best Renewable Energy Stocks To Buy According to Hedge Funds.

It's titled Profit and Purpose: 7 Standout Stocks for the Ethical Investor by Josh Enomoto, on investorplace.com. Here are some quotes on each of his picks. “1. Waste Management (NYSE:WM) It's one of the leaders in environmental sustainability with a focus toward waste reduction and renewable energy initiatives. For one thing, the company owns a vast network of recycling facilities… Second, the company forwards a waste-gas-to-energy project. Per its website. Analysts rate shares a consensus moderate buy with a high-side target hitting $230. 2. NextEra Energy (NYSE:NEE) Commanding a presence in 49 states… (and) through its vast network of facilities – including solar and wind turbines – NextEra Energy features about 72 gigawatts (GW) of operating capacity… Rough economic conditions hurt NextEra Energy bad in the final months of 2023. However, analysts anticipate a recovery, pegging shares a moderate buy with a $69.60 average price target. 3. Costco (NASDAQ:COST) I don't think it's an anecdote to say that most Americans love the open-warehouse-style big-box retailer… But where it really shines is how well Costco treats its employees… In 2022, data from Glassdoor noted that the retailer's employees rated the business a four out of five regarding worker satisfaction… Analysts rate Costco stock a strong buy with a high-side target of $825. 4. Starbucks (NASDAQ:SBUX) Starbucks… appeals to modern investors by emphasizing the ‘S' component of ESG stocks… the company proudly boasts of its ethical sourcing of its key ingredients, from coffee beans to tealeaves to cocoa. In addition, its manufactured goods – from the merchandise on its shelves to the furniture in its stores – involve ethical sourcing… Also, I'd be remiss not to mention Starbucks' youth empowerment, hunger relief, and inclusivity programs… And analysts love it, pegging shares a consensus strong buy. 5. Visa (NYSE:V) According to a Forbes article in 2023, Visa represents the most carried card, printing a market share of 52.8%... Lots of folks love talking about the ‘E' and the ‘S' in ESG stocks. However, governance is also a major component of holistic ethics. Here, Visa's corporate governance practices help promote long-term value and accountability to its shareholders. Part of this involves ensuring diversity and inclusion and not just in the workforce itself but in the upper echelons of leadership… Analysts rate shares a consensus strong buy with a $303.74 average price target. 6. Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) Maintaining high standards of governance, Apple focuses on a range of important issues. In June 2020, the company launched its Racial Equity and Justice Initiative, advancing opportunities for many people of color and Indigenous communities…. Also, Apple implements a shareholder voting process focused on executive compensation. That's one distinct mechanism to keep the company accountable to stakeholders. Overall, analysts peg shares a moderate buy with a $208.07 average price target. Notably, the high-side target hits $250, implying robust bullishness despite a soft start to 2024. 7. Microsoft (NASDAQ:MSFT) Thanks to the tech giant's big investments in artificial intelligence, it has steadily rocketed higher since the 2022 doldrums. Further, as AI becomes more ingrained into everyday life, Microsoft stands to be a massive winner. And when it comes to ethical stocks, the company may be the all-around champion… management set out ambitious environmental targets, most conspicuously being its aim to be carbon negative; that is, it will remove its historical emissions since its founding in 1975. In addition, it's a huge player in social equity, promoting directives focused on encouraging women to participate in technology. Finally, MSCI Ratings awarded Microsoft an AAA rating, the highest rating available to organizations. Unsurprisingly, analysts love Microsoft, rating it a consensus strong buy with a $469.45 price target.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Other Honorable Mentions – not in any order. 1.

“Pine Trees have these needles that they drop around them, so they stung all the competition beneath that pine tree. It means that when you're a plant who's trying to compete with that pine tree, there's not much chance you'll be able to grow in its circumference.” The metaphor of the pine tree implies that the new rules of competition have changed not only in the tech space but also in the global economy. It is also undeniable that this difficulty is fueled by the democratically-elected monopolies that either give us business learning points and benefits or greatly dominate the industry – adding more tension to the competitive marketplace of tech. Paul X. McCarthy tackles this state of market power and dominant companies that are taking over the power/control in the technology industry.

Panelists will explore how companies that have supply chains or otherwise are active in China weigh human rights concerns (e.g., in Xinjiang or Hong Kong) against market access, as well as consider the dilemma companies face when they find themselves caught in the crossfire between U.S. and allies' human rights sanctions (e.g., Global Magnitsky) and Chinese retaliatory sanctions.

As an author, speaker and world leading entrepreneur, Matthew Michalewicz is one of the very few people who doesn't just walk his talk, he sprints it! Over the last 30 years Matthew has repeatedly demonstrated the ability to move into any industry, start from scratch and build large global, profitable, successful, scalable and saleable businesses. His is a modern day story of David and Goliath where he has been able to enter into multiple industries as a new, small player and very quickly position himself as an industry leader. He is a living breathing example of what we call Living By Design – visualising his ideal future outcome and then developing the step by step principles, processes and people to make it happen. He has repeatedly demonstrated that he achieves anything & everything that he sets his mind to. He has formula-ized and codified success into a repeatable process that can be applied to any situation. Let me give you a very brief run down on his achievements to date: To fund his lifestyle during Uni, Matt was the founder and operator of Fitness Forever, a personal training business, and after he graduated uni, he co-founded CFG Investments, a money management and financial planning company with more than $150 million under management. He then co-founded NuTech Solutions in the USA, where he raised more than $US15 million in venture capital and grew the business to almost 200 employees spread across six international offices before selling the business. During this time Matt established an absolute “A-list” board of directors, which included former President of Poland and Nobel Peace Prize winner, Lech Walesa, former Bank of America Chairman and CEO, Hugh McColl Jr., world-renowned fraud expert and subject of Steven Spielberg's blockbuster "Catch Me if You Can," Frank Abagnale, and former National Security Advisor to the President of the United States, Zbigniew Brzezinski. NuTech Solutions was acquired by Netezza Corporation, which was subsequently acquired by IBM Global Services. After his first retirement, he then co-founded SolveIT Software, a supply chain optimisation business that he grew from zero to almost 180 employees and $20 million in revenue before again selling the business to Schneider Electric. Under his leadership, SolveIT Software became the third fastest-growing company in Australia in 2012, as ranked by Deloitte. The company won numerous awards, and counted among its customers some of the largest corporations in the world, including Rio Tinto, BHP Billiton, and Xstrata. After his second retirement, He has now established Complexica, the award winning provider of Artificial Intelligence software for optimising sales & marketing activities. The company has just won the prestigious 2018 Australian Innovation of the Year Award for their ground breaking AI product, Larry the Digital Analyst. He is also a director of several ASX-listed companies. He has also been named the Pearcey Foundation "Entrepreneur of the Year", listed in the Business Journal "40 under 40" accomplished business leaders, and has been an Ernst and Young "Entrepreneur of the Year" finalist. Amazingly, despite building leading global multi million dollar enterprises, Matthew also loves giving back and teaching others. He has been the Visiting Fellow at the University of Adelaide where he lectured on the subject of technology commercialisation for graduate students. He also drives the Pitch program for Dent Global's Key Person of Influence or KPI Program. He is also the author of several books including, Winning Credibility, Puzzle-Based Learning, Adaptive Business Intelligence & his best known ‘Life in Half a Second' which has been inspirational in my outlook and journey which I reference in my book, The Freedom Formula. If you haven't read Life in Half a Second, do yourself a favour and grab a copy as it will be life changing. Here is the surprising thing - Matthew doesn't need to work – he is financially free several times over - but he still chooses to work.  So during our very engaging conversation we talk about: What motivates him and enables him to continuously reach this astonishing level of achievement How he has retired three times but still chooses to build world leading businesses How he could live anywhere in the world but has chosen Adelaide to call home The importance of family to his success And ... how can you learn from him to take your life to the next level Find out more about Matthew: http://www.michalewicz.com.au/ Get Invested is the podcast dedicated to time poor professionals who want to work less and live more.
