Önningebyn taiteilijasiirtokunta Ahvenanmaalla oli yksi tärkeistä kuvataiteilijoiden yhteenliittymistä 1800-luvun lopulla. Kuvataiteilijat kokoontuivat pieneen Önningebyn kylään kesäkuukausiksi maalaamaan ja ideoimaan uutta. Tuohon aikaan luotiin monia niistä taiteilija-ammatin ja luovan yhteisöllisyyden muodoista, jotka ovat tuttuja nykyisestäkin taidemaailmasta. Taiteilijasiirtokunnista ja taiteilijuuden muutoksista ovat keskustelemassa taidehistorioitsija Salla Leponiemi ja syksyllä Didrichsenin taidemuseon johtajana aloittava Anna-Maria Wiljanen. Juontaja on Pietari Kylmälä.

In der Nachmittagsfolge begrüßen wir heute Jens Thumm, CEO und Co-Founder von Predium Technology, und sprechen mit ihm über die erfolgreich abgeschlossene Seed-Finanzierungsrunde in Höhe von 4,5 Millionen Euro.Predium hat eine intelligente Softwareplattform für die Dekarbonisierung von Immobilien entwickelt. Das Startup ermöglicht einen einfachen und schnellen Überblick über die ESG-Performance von Gebäuden, Sanierungsfahrpläne zur CO2-Reduktion und ein automatisiertes Reporting. Das PropTech wurde im Jahr 2021 von Jens Thumm, Mohamed Ali Razouane und Maximilian Körner in München gegründet. Unternehmen wie die Deutsche Investment Gruppe, die B&L Gruppe, Tattersall Lorenz, Valon und Pamera Real Estate Partners vertrauen auf die holistische Lösung für nachhaltiges und profitables Immobilienmanagement. Da die EU mit der Offenlegungsverordnung Bestandshaltende dazu verpflichtet, Informationen über ihre ESG-Praktiken und -Risiken offenzulegen, steigt der Bedarf von Immobilienbesitzenden, Maßnahmen zur Reduzierung ihres CO2-Fußabdrucks zu ergreifen.In einer Seed-Runde hat Predium nun 4,5 Millionen Euro unter der Führung von UVC Partners eingesammelt. Zu den weiteren Kapitalgebern zählen bestehende Investoren wie B2venture und neue Investoren wie Mutschler Ventures. Außerdem haben sich Business Angels wie Joachim Drees, Alexander Schwörer, Heike Gündling und Maximilian Viessmann an der Runde beteiligt. Das frische Kapital soll dazu verwendet werden, das PropTech zur führenden europäischen ESG-Management-Plattform für die Dekarbonisierung von Immobilien auszubauen und den Markt weiter zu erschließen.

What if you could reduce shopping cart abandonment and increase sales? Learn the secrets of AI and consumer behavior to boost your online sales in this new episode with our guest Valon Xhafa on How AI and Consumer Behavior Can Reduce Shopping Cart Abandonment! ABOUT VALONValon previously worked as an AI scientist at Google and at other research institutes, developing sophisticated AI techniques and algorithms. Valon is always looking for innovative methods to use artificial intelligence to improve the online shopping experience at Behamics.Here's a summary of the great stuff that we cover in this show:Shopping cart abandonment is when a consumer visits your shop, adds products to the cart but leaves without purchasing the products. This is a major concern for eCommerce business owners because statistically 70% of consumers who added something to the cart, abandon it. There are several external and internal factors to cart abandonments. At Behamics, Valon and his team mainly focus on internal factors because these are factors that one can actually impact and improve to prevent cart abandonments. Internal factors comprise of Behavioral & Technical issues.AI not only predicts whether the consumer will abandon the cart but can explain why they choose to abandon the cart. If a consumer leaves the website without making a purchase, it will cost the business more money to try and bring them back through emails etc. It is far more cost-effective to interact with the consumer while they are on the site and to be able to intervene and prevent things before they happen.

Cart abandonment is a big problem with up to 70% of carts abandoned before a sale is completed. With traffic becoming more expensive, this is a growing issue for retailers. In this podcast, we talk to Valon Xhafa from Behamics about the major causes of abandonment and how to fix them. Common causes of cart abandonment There are two main causes of abandonment 1. Technical. The website does not function properly, e.g. payment failure, images do not load. This accounts for 30-40% of abandonment 2. Behavioural. The useability of the site impeeds the purchasing process For example, sites can cause users to make too many decisions and overwhelm the user. Common misconceptions about cart abandonment Users want to buy everything in their cart Adding to a cart is not necessarily an indication that the shopper is looking to buy. Many sellers use it as a wish list. Upselling is always good Too much upselling can suffocate users, leading to higher rates of abandonment. The merchant needs to know when to upsell and when to close the user. More options are not always better Having too many options (e.g. payment, product options) forces users to make decisions, suffocating the user. Fewer options mean faster decisions and potentially higher conversion rates. Fixing cart issues Monitor your site for errors Using a tool like Google Analytics, monitor the performance of your site and identify the points at which your site fails. Make it simple, stupid! Simplify the purchase process as much as possible. Valon's Behamicsolution provides a solution for predicting the options which will most appeal to each user Focus on site speed You only have a brief window to make an impression on your user. Benchmark and work to improve your site speed. For example, faster images are one of the biggest reasons why buyers leave a site without buying. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ecommerce-odyssey-podcast/message

This week we cover episode six of The Wheel of Time, about healing and reconciliation, family strife (which we can all relate to), and being punished in public by your domi mommy. But it seems like Moiraine (the sub) and Suaine (the dom) are super into that kind of thing and it was probably just foreplay to them, so that makes it okay. But in the end we always love seeing healthy relationships, even if they are forced apart by an epic level evil that threatens to consume the world in darkness. It's a tale as old as time.

Eighty six episodes later and we are actually recording in the same room, the same time zone, breathing the same air! Don't mind our excitement. All this happy energy tumbled out in a full spoiler conversation ranging from our love of the creepy crawlies that live in the Blight to our desire for Talmanes to be played by dreamy Wes Chatham, and discussing the parallels between Egwene and Rand. Next week, back to the 101s with the nation of Tear and our regular spoiler free front half and full spoilers in the second half. Thank you, thank you for joining us!

Uncharted, but totally in sync. If you ever wanted a full peek into where our imaginations take us, this is the episode for you. We thought we would end up being all over the map with this one and instead it became a feast of ideas on cold open ideas for season two of the show. We still don't know why Amazon hasn't hired us yet… Thank you, thank you for joining us!

*WARNING* THIS PODCAST CONTAINS BOOK AND SHOW SPOILERS. AND THIS EPISODE DESCRIPTION PROBABLY DOES TOO, TBQHIf we had to pick one word to describe this episode of Pod of Time (and we don't), it might be "satisfaction". Total delight and utter satisfaction. If you can't tell, Nicole and Jackie are very VERY into the romance introduced in this episode -- and just about everything else that "The Flame of Tar Valon" had to offer.Do they have opinions? Yes. Rewrites? Oh, of course. But this...this was a good one. We both got romance. Jackie got her world-building (in a bathhouse no less!) and Nicole got the reunion we were all hoping for. Plus, we add segments! Actual segments! Getting Randy is back along with Highs and Lows, Storyline Breakdown and even a Hot Take. If you're on the fence about downloading, get off the fence because this is a good one. Also, that fence *can't* be comfy.Pod of Time is a Wheel of Time podcast hosted by Nicole Drespel (Broad City, Wet Hot American Summer) and Jackie Jennings (SYFY, My Brother, My Brother & Me). Pod of Time is a for WoT diehards and newcomers alike. Jackie has read all the books and may or may not own a Great Serpent ring (she does). Nicole is a huge genre fan who is going to experience Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson's series for the first time in TV form. Join them as the breakdown every episode from the perspective of longtime fan and enthusiastic, first-time watcher!
