“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.” — Charles Darwin A company’s business model needs to undergo the same that the species need to, to survive & sustain. It needs to adapt to the people’ needs, invest in the company’s future and make the necessary changes to its model before it turns archaic. There are many examples of the businesses that couldn’t embrace the change and eventually, time did what it does best. Yahoo - while enjoying a strong market in the desktop segment, couldn’t convert it into mobile applications and Kodak - stuck with its analogue-photography related products & couldn’t adapt to the digital photography era, are few companies that couldn’t adapt and resulted in downfall. Microsoft, the software giant with its head office situated in Redmond, USA, famous for its universal products — Windows and Office. But in recent years, there have been several...

Lives used to be simple and straight Plain sailing is no more an appreciable-life all we need is risks & challenges From a feature to the need... From a Desire to the necessity...

The reply to the question was started when Edwin Hubble made his landmark observation, that is wherever you look in the open sky, distant galaxies are moving away from us. It just means the universe is expanding. That is revolutionary because until then, people believed that the universe is static, infinite and existed forever, as there was no observable proof to state their beliefs wrong.

This discovery finally brought the question of the beginning of the universe into the realm of science. Hubble’s observations suggested that there was a time called th...
