during the 1930s, company management decided to concentrate on expanding and improving its domestic operations. after several years of negotiations, asea and lm ericsson telephone company signed a pact in 1933 stipulating that the two companies would not compete with each other in certain sectors of the electrical market. as part of the agreement, asea purchased elektromekano from ericsson, giving asea undisputed control over a large portion of the electrical equipment market in sweden .

cooperation between asea and vattenfall continued in conjunction with swedish nuclear power expansion, but the close development partnership between a government agency and a private company began to crack. the time for such a close relationship between state and capitalism had run out. gradually vattenfall started to lose its central position in asea' s development work .

however, the first delivery ended with asea' s equipment breaking down. very stern correspondence followed between vattenfall and asea. vattenfall' s director general declared that he was' quite simply exhausted following year after year of problems, at least 50% of which could have been avoided'. despite this, vattenfall once again overlooked the lack of quality, and asea got a second chance. this time things went better. when the line was completed in 1922, it was the first time such a high voltage had been used in europe .

nuclear power became an increasingly controversial issue in sweden during the late 1970s. asea continued to manufacture nuclear reactors and received its first foreign order, from finland. but in a 1980 national referendum sweden voted to phase out nuclear power programs over a period of 25 years. the company was still allowed to complete orders for foreign reactors, but asea atom' s future looked bleak .
the company continued to play a critical role in sweden' s rail transit system. asea' s locomotives accounted for virtually all the traffic on the country' s rail network. in the mid - 1950s, the firm introduced its
ra
light - class electric locomotive, which was an immediate success and gave a boost to asea' s efforts to market competitive locomotive models internationally .

barnevik also considered asea' s industrial controls business, with products such as large automation controls, a high - growth sector. asea already had a major share of the rapidly expanding market for industrial energy controls, such as those that recycle waste heat. in addition, the company positioned itself to take advantage of a growing demand for pollution controls, spurred in part by the acid - rain controversy in europe and north america .

the postwar years brought a deep recession to sweden that lasted from 1920 to 1923. yet edstrom' s cautious spending policies enabled the company to survive. by the late 1920s, asea was once again on the road to profitability and growth. in 1926 the company provided the electric locomotives and converter equipment for the first electric trains on the stockholm - gothenburg line, and in 1932 asea built the world' s largest naturally cooled three - phase transformer .
in 1949 ake t. vrethem, formerly with the swedish state power board, was named president of asea and ericson became chairman of the board. under their direction, the company continued its pioneering efforts in several areas: asea supplied electrical equipment and technical expertise to the world' s first 400 kilovolt ac transmission, between harspranget and hallsberg in 1952; the company claims to have produced the world' s first synthetic diamonds using high - pressure technology in 1953, two years before general electric announced a similar achievement in the united states; and asea supplied the first permanent high - voltage, direct current (hvdc) transmission, linking the swedish mainland with the island of gotland in 1954 .

although sweden remained neutral during world war i, the company was adversely affected by the conflict. asea prospered during the early years of the war since the scarcity of coal stimulated the development of electricity, including the company' s first major railway electrification project. eventually, however, the firm lost many of its european markets due to the success of german submarine warfare. in russia, all of asea' s operations were interrupted by the revolution beginning in 1917 .
during the immediate postwar years, domestic power demands skyrocketed forcing utility companies to expand rapidly. asea was unable to meet this demand for electrical equipment due to shortages of material. to make matters worse, a five - month strike by metal workers played havoc with the company' s delivery schedule, leaving asea unable to meet the demand from the soviet union for electric equipment based on a 1946 trade agreement between sweden and the u. s. s. r .
asea began to revive in 1980, when 39 - year - old percy barnevik was named managing director and, eventually, ceo. barnevik immediately began a reorganization of the company' s management strategy. asea had previously bid on projects with low profit margins for the sake of maintaining a minimum sales level and a certain number of employees, but under barnevik' s direction the company would emphasize high profit margin projects. barnevik' s strategy began to pay off quickly .
mr. onyema is the chief executive officer (ceo) of the nigerian stock exchange (ngx), he was elected president of the association in november 2014 at the 18 th annual general meeting of asea after succeeding mr. sunil benimadhu .
vattenfall and asea began investigating direct current technology together in the 1940s. hydropower was available in northern sweden and was needed in the southern parts of the country. high - voltage dc technology offered great advantages for transmission over long distances, but the problem was the power inverters that would handle the conversion between ac and dc. to develop this technology, vattenfall and asea built a laboratory in trollhättan. among its employees was uno lamm,' the father of high voltage direct current' .
in 1963 asea achieved a major technological breakthrough with the introduction of an improved thyristor able to handle substantially more electrical current than existing devices. as a result, the company began manufacturing thyristor locomotives for swedish and european rail systems. in the mid - 1970s, asea worked with its american licensee, the electro - motive division of general motors, to secure an order for 47 thyristor locomotives for use on amtrak lines in the boston - new york - washington, d. c. corridor .
asea was established in 1993 with the nairobi securities exchange as the first member followed by the stock exchange of mauritius, uganda securities exchange and dar - es - salam stock exchanges. currently the association is represented by 27 exchanges serving 32 african countries .

though the invention of products like sunscreen, lotion, and cold cream have undoubtedly changed the skincare scene, it wasn’t until 2014, when asea introduced their scientifically - developed line of skincare products, that people could finally improve the health of their skin from the inside out. with products like renu 28 that use redox signaling molecules, asea developed a way to improve the appearance and quality of their skin by revitalizing the cells that lie below the surface. these products are effective in reducing wrinkles, promoting moisture, and increasing skin elasticity .
stockholms enskilda bank played a major role in asea' s financial recovery. in fact, it was only after the bank agreed to guarantee his salary that j. sigfrid edstrom, the former manager of the gothenburg tramways company, agreed to become president of asea in 1903. under edstrom' s direction, the company began to show a substantial profit by 1907. in addition, he expanded the firm' s markets in europe: subsidiaries were established in great britain, spain, denmark, finland, and russia between 1910 and 1914 .
asea' s early success was short - lived. in 1896 one of sweden' s leading inventors and industrialists, gustaf de laval, acquired a 50 percent interest in the company and both wenstrom and wijkman were ousted in a management reorganization. but laval' s mismanagement of asea soon led the company into severe financial difficulties. with the help of the stockholms enskilda bank, management opposed to laval eventually extricated the company from his control. disorganized and deeply in debt, the firm lost a significant share of the electrical equipment market in sweden .
formerly fierce competitors in the heavy - electrical and power - generation fields, sweden' s asea ab (which changed its name to abb ab in february 1996) and switzerland' s bbc brown boveri ltd. (which changed its name to abb ag in february 1996) announced in august 1987 that the two companies would combine their assets to form a new company, called abb asea brown boveri ltd. (abb). the merger took effect on january 5, 1988. abb is headquartered in switzerland and owned equally by the two parent companies, which maintain separate stock listings in their own countries and act as holding companies for abb. the merger, which created europe' s largest heavy - electrical combine, was designed to take advantage of asea' s management strengths and brown boveri' s technological and marketing expertise .
there were close social relations between asea' s and vattenfall' s engineers, and also a willingness from the swedish state to cooperate with the best interests of industry in mind. the fact that vattenfall, within reasonable limits, favoured a swedish supplier was an expression of this .
the next major collaboration began in the 1920s. vattenfall was to connect its two power grids in eastern and western sweden with a 130 kv transmissoin line: trollhättan–västerås. the collaboration would allow asea to develop its transformers so they were in the same quality class as its international competitors .
in 1987 asea and brown boveri were of roughly equivalent size in many respects (annual sales, net worth, number of employees) and had adopted similar lines of decentralized command. the companies also complemented each other in their geographical concentrations and in management strengths. this marriage of equals, asea and brown boveri into one company, abb, allowed it to stay at the forefront of technology. utilizing production plants in many countries, the merged group made the most of the advantages of international specialization and became the world' s leading supplier in the electric power industry .
curt nicolin was also appointed chairman of the board in 1976. during the 1970s, however, nicolin' s management style was overwhelmed by the fast pace of changing technology. a large number of utility and electrical equipment manufacturing companies, including asea, experienced falling profits and lackluster growth .
in 1986, asea announced the successful implementation of its nordic strategy, an attempt to extend the firm’s engineering and manufacturing operations beyond sweden in order to gain economies of scale - both in manufacturing and in raising capital. the big step forward had been the acquisition in finland of strömberg ab with its 7, 000 employees, which was followed in late 1987 by the acquisition of 63 percent of eb corporation in norway. by 1987, asea was radically altered from a swedish - centered into a pan - nordic electrical multinational. but the company continued to look even beyond the nordic countries
asea initiated a major expansion into high - tech areas, investing heavily in robotics and other state - of - the - art electronics. the development costs of robotics at first held profits down in that sector, but barnevik viewed robotics as a long - term, high - growth area .
he has performed strategic planning and leadership success assignments with flakt, inc. , asea brown boveri us (abb), arthur andersen, commonwealth edison, diamond walnut, martin - marietta, lockheed, zebra technologies, johnson industries, doran scales, norix group, mueller llc, dhjj inc. and others .
allmanna svenska elektriska aktiebolaget (asea) was created on november 18, 1890, to provide electrical equipment for swedish industry. goran wenstrom shared presidential responsibilities with fredholm, who also served as chairman of the board. after fredholm' s death in 1891, wenstrom become sole president and oscar f. wijkman was appointed chairman .
asea is governed by a team of 8 executive committee members, led by the president and the deputy president. the executive committee brings a wealth of experience and expertise to the association’s leadership. the team is continuously working to ensure accountability, transparency and operating standards are in line with international standards for the development of the association .
in the mid - 1960s, asea' s american market expanded considerably and became more important to the company' s overall sales strategy. after serving customers such as the tennessee valley authority, the company firmly established itself in the united states when it was chosen to supply hvdc equipment for the pacific internie project on the west coast .
the joint venture between these two former competitors allowed them to combine expensive research - and - development efforts in superconductors, high - voltage chips, and control systems used in power plants. in addition, asea' s strength in scandinavia and northern europe balanced brown boveri' s strong presence in austria, italy, switzerland, and west germany .
a skin care product, renu28 and renu advanced system has no equal in the market period. i have been taking asea for over 7 years and renu28 since it came on the market and i have seen an age reversal effect over the years for both myself and my family. i will never stop taking it for the rest of my life !
in 1985 the company was accused of an illegal diversion of proprietary u. s. technology to the soviet union. a former asea vice - president was charged by swedish authorities with tax evasion and violation of foreign exchange regulations in connection with the sale of six sophisticated computers with possible military applications. barnevik insisted that the diversions occurred without management' s approval .
although sweden remained neutral during world war ii, once again war severely affected the country' s economy. the nazi occupation effectively curtailed asea' s operations throughout europe, and even to a significant extent in sweden. a new president, thorsten ericson, was appointed in 1943, but this management change had little impact on the company' s fortunes for the remainder of the war .

indra nooyi was named president and ceo of pepsico (pep) in 2006. a year later she was also named chairman of the beverage company. under her watch, pepsico successfully spun off taco bell, kfc and pizza hut under the yum! label and acquired quaker oats and tropicana. prior to coming to pepsico in 2001, nooyi spent time at automation company asea brown boveri and at motorola .
from its first year of operation in 1988 through its ninth year in 1996, abb asea brown boveri ltd. had nearly doubled in size, increasing revenues from $ 17. 83 billion to $ 34. 57 billion. although it failed to reach barnevik' s goal of a 10 percent operating margin for even a single year, the merged company was much more profitable than its predecessors, asea ab and bbc brown boveri ltd. , achieving a peak operating margin of 9. 7 percent in 1995 before falling back to 8. 8 percent in 1996. abb was certainly much stronger, better managed, and more global in nature than its parent companies had been when operating independently. the question for this engineering giant at the turn of the millennium was whether the company' s huge bet on asia would pay off in the long run or lead to further financial difficulties .
the integration of the giant was the new management' s first task. ceo barnevik had been applauded for his excellent job of rationalization at asea. when he took the helm of that company in 1980 it was struggling but by 1986 it was earning 5. 5 percent of total sales, compared to brown boveri' s 1. 5 percent. the companies hoped barnevik would have similar success with brown boveri' s operations. for his part, barnevik aimed for abb to achieve an overall operating margin of 10 percent .
furthermore, listening to the customer before launching a sales pitch can better aid in the approach by making it personal and direct to the point of need. you can then offer solutions to problems, help where assistance is needed, and give advice on additional products or services that might be of use. karen reilley, regional vice president for asea, an international direct selling and multi - level marketing company, has found success through listening to her clients and ensuring top - level customer quality assurance is reflected throughout every level of the company .
bbc brown boveri was established in 1891. the company' s development is interesting because it was one of only a few multinational corporations to operate subsidiaries that were larger than the parent company. because of the limitations of the swiss domestic market, brown boveri established subsidiaries throughout europe relatively early in its history, and at times had difficulty maintaining managerial control over some of its larger operating units. the merger with asea, a company which was praised for its strong management, was expected to help brown boveri reorganize and reassert control over its vast international network .
in addition to its production of electric locomotives and rail equipment for sweden' s national railway electrification program, the firm expanded into new markets. asea purchased a. b. svenska flaktfabriken, a firm specializing in air - freight handling technology, and a large electric - motor manufacturer in poland to augment its domestic production. in 1934 edstrom was named chairman of the board and arthur linden, executive vice - president and a close edstrom associate for many years, was named president. these two men directed the company' s successful growth and expansion strategy until world war ii .

the abb asea brown boveri group is a federation of national companies. it finds efficient solutions for specific customers' problems and exports worldwide in specialized fields. abb uses a matrix structure for its organization: the abb group is made up of some 1, 000 companies and more than 5, 000 profit centers. worldwide business activities are grouped into 4 business segments comprising 37 business areas. each business area is responsible for global strategies, business plans, allocation of manufacturing, and product development. local company managers, in turn, are responsible for operations in each country in line with the global strategy of the business area. the group is also managed in three global regions - - europe (including the former soviet union) middle east and africa - - the americas - - asia pacific & mdashø promote cross - border cooperation and support the development of abb' s composite plant business .
in february 1996, the parent companies of abb changed their names, with asea becoming abb ab and brown boveri becoming abb ag. at the same time, changes were made to abb' s board of directors. these changes were intended to reflect the company' s increasingly global nature and to improve the relationship between the subsidiary and its parent companies. further management changes came in october 1996 when barnevik relinquished his position as chief executive of abb in order to take over the chairmanship of investor, the wallenberg family holding company. assuming the position of president and chief executive was göran lindahl, a 25 - year company veteran who had been executive vice - president for power transmission and the middle east and north africa region. barnevik remained abb chairman. in june 1997 the wallenberg group, in need of cash for a takeover, reduced its indirect voting stake in abb from 32. 7 percent to 25. 5 percent .

research support agreement
to confirm and extend the anti - hiv activity of thenovel drug therapy, mdi - p. preliminary studies of medical discoveries mdi - p treatment have demonstrated a decreasein the production of hiv - 1. the research plan will further investigate the mechanism bywhich mdi - p inactivates the virus, and will define its cellular and viral specificity. importantly, the dfci will be testing the activity of mdi - p against resistant strains of hiv and against freshsamples of hiv taken from the patient. all research under this agreement will be conducted under the direction of dr. robertfinberg, the principal investigator of the study, a professor of medicine at hms and chief ofinfectious disease at the dfci. dr. william j. novick, vice president and chief technical officer of medical discoveries saysthe mdi - p research is important because the treatment works on mechanisms which aredifferent from those targeted by currently approved anti - retroviral agents .
we cancategorically say that this drug is not an enzyme inhibitor ,

according to a recent report by pricewaterhousecoopers, “africa asset management 2020” (get your copy here) total assets under management in 12 selected africa countries were $ 293 billion in 2008, more than doubling to $ 634bn by 2014. they are forecast at $ 1. 1 trillion in 2020. (the 12 countries are: south africa, morocco, mauritius, namibia; egypt, kenya, botswana, ghana, nigeria; angola, algeria, tunisia) .
pensions are increasingly important as many countries set up and grow pension schemes. mauritius and ghana are examples of countries with 3 - pillar pension systems and some countries are starting to revise their regulations to allow pension funds to invest more widely than just into domestic bonds, money market and equities
the ethiopian commodity exchange (ecx) was set up with backing from the ethiopian government. in a very readable 2012 paper by the founder and first ceo eleni gabre - madhin outlining the origins, aims and implementation of ecx, she mentions the government backing in replacing laws so that trade in commodities including coffee (which makes up 35% of ethiopia’s exports from 2000 - 2014), has to go through the exchange, and the determined resistance from those who had previously dominated the export trade .

though written history of skin care dates back to nearly 6, 000 years ago, it’s presumed that the concept of skin decoration and intentional care reaches back far longer, possibly to the beginning of mankind. regardless, one thing’s for sure: as the largest organ in the human body, caring for and maintaining your skin has a measure of importance that has not been lost throughout the test of time. along with environment and personal hygiene, skin is a direct indicator of age, the visible and physical testimony of a healthy life .
records trace early methods of skincare all the way back to the egyptians in 40 b. c. , where they used aloe vera for its anti - aging benefits. by grinding together formulas made of things like metal ore, copper, and semi - precious stones, the egyptians made eyeshadow powder, body decoration, and hair color. these practices were adopted and evolved by the ancient greeks, hebrews, and middle eastern tribes. they also crushed and ingested precious pearls to make skin power and create a radiant glow .
similarly, around 3000 bce, the chinese were known to have used gum arabic, gelatin, beeswax, egg, and plum blossom to stain their fingernails and decorate their foreheads. and in medieval japan, crushed safflower petals were used by the geisha to paint eyebrows, edges of the eyes, and the lips .
as the years progressed, cultures across the globe developed innovative solutions, formulas, creams, and powders made of ingredients like egg yolk, honey, oatmeal, lemon juice, various oils, and beeswax to improve the vitality and health of the skin .
from a quick cheer to a standing ovation, clap to show how much you enjoyed this story .
abb' s operations include three main business segments: power generation systems for utilities, industries, and independent power producers; electrical power transmission and distribution systems and products; and products, systems, and services for industrial processes and building systems. a fourth segment, rail transportation, is now part of abb daimler - benz transportation gmbh (adtranz). a 50 - - 50 joint venture with germany' s daimler - benz ag, adtranz is the world' s largest provider of total rail systems. increasingly global in its operations, abb transacts 57 percent of its total sales in europe, 18 percent in the americas, and 25 percent in asia, australasia, and africa; southeast asia and china are abb' s main growth areas in the late 1990s. the wallenberg family dynasty of sweden holds a 25. 5 percent indirect voting stake in abb .
elektriska aktiebolaget in stockholm was established in 1883 by ludwig fredholm to manufacture dynamos based on the designs of a young engineer named jonas wenstrom. wenstrom' s innovative designs quickly led to financial success, and fredholm soon wanted to expand the scope of his firm' s operations. he arranged a merger with wenstroms & granstroms elektriska kraftbolag, a company founded by jonas wenstrom' s brother goran .
brown boveri' s early activities included manufacturing electrical components such as electrical motors for locomotives and power - generating equipment for europe' s railway systems. in 1919 the company entered into a licensing agreement with the british manufacturing firm vickers which gave the british firm the right to manufacture and sell brown boveri products throughout the british empire and in some parts of europe. the agreement gave brown boveri a significant amount of money and the promise of substantial annual revenue, and also helped the company expand into foreign markets at a time when protectionist policies inhibited international expansion .
in the early 1920s, brown boveri, already a geographically diversified company with successful operating subsidiaries in italy, germany, norway, austria, and the balkans, suffered losses due to the devaluation of the french franc and the german mark. at the same time, in the swiss domestic market, production costs increased while sales remained static, causing the company further losses. in 1924 brown boveri devalued its capital by 30 percent to cover the losses it had incurred. in 1927 the agreement with vickers ran out and was not renewed .
during the same time, brown boveri' s various subsidiaries grew rapidly. industrialization throughout europe created strong demand for the company' s heavy electrical equipment. italy' s burgeoning railroad industry provided a particularly strong boost to brown boveri' s italian subsidiary, and the company' s german facility actually did considerably more business than the swiss parent. for the next few decades brown boveri grew as fast as technological developments in electrical engineering. each of the company' s subsidiaries tended to develop individually, as if it were a domestic company in the country in which it operated, and broad geographic coverage helped insulate the parent from severe crises when a certain region experienced economic difficulties .
this sort of segmented development had its drawbacks, however. after world war ii, the cold war presented a variety of business opportunities for defense - related electrical contractors, but brown boveri' s subsidiaries were seen as foreign companies in many of the countries in which they operated, sometimes making it difficult for the company to win lucrative contracts involving sensitive technology and other government contracts. the company, nevertheless, excelled at power generation, including nuclear power generators, and prospered in this field. electrification efforts in the third world also provided brown boveri with substantial profits .
in 1970 brown boveri began an extensive reorganization. the company' s subsidiaries were divided into five groups: german, french, swiss ,
medium - sized
( seven manufacturing bases in europe and latin america), and brown boveri international (the remaining facilities). each of these groups was further broken down into five product divisions: power generation, electronics, power distribution, traction equipment, and industrial equipment .
throughout the 1970s, brown boveri struggled to expand into the u. s. market. the company negotiated a joint venture with rockwell, the american manufacturer of high - tech military and aerospace applications, but the deal fell through when the two companies could not agree on financial terms. while brown boveri counted a handful of major u. s. customers as its clients, among them large utilities such as the tennessee valley authority and american electric, brown boveri' s american market share was dismal considering the company' s international standing (north american sales accounted for only 3. 5 percent of total sales in 1974 and 1975), and the company continued to search for a means of effectively entering u. s. markets .
in 1974 brown boveri acquired the british controls and instrument manufacturer, george kent. the deal at first raised concern in britain over foreign ownership of such highly sensitive technology, but brown boveri prevailed with the encouragement of george kent' s rank - and - file employees, who feared the alternative of being bought by britain' s general electric company (gec). the newly acquired company was renamed brown boveri kent and made an excellent addition to the parent company' s already diverse product line.
