  • Challenges of the Times: Natural Energy Resources

    Challenges of the Times: Natural Energy Resources

    The Sun has basked in radiant glory for far too long, whereas the Moon is connected with lunacy and the hot core of the Earth is associated with hell. Frank Richardson feels this injustice needs correcting and, now that new sources of energy are urgently being sought, this seems the appropriate time to do it. Harnessing the power of ancient civilisations and pre-historic man, this article will shed some light (excuse the pun) on natural energy resources and their adaptability in an increasingly green-conscious world, dispelling some modern myths in the process.

  • Trends in Trade: The Web

    Trends in Trade: The Web

    The internet has become such an integral part of people's lives in the West, most people now probably take it for granted. However, the fact is, the internet has yet to reach most of the developing world. In this report, Eric Payne looks at the underlying technology, and the prospects for connectivity in emerging economies, such as the Middle East, where the race is on to establish a modern technology infrastructure to go on-line. Also covered will be the unbounded potential of the web as an information tool, the social and political implications of which are universal.

  • Industry Review: Shipping and Maritime

    Industry Review: Shipping and Maritime

    With around 90 percent of the world's trade carried by sea, the shipping industry provides the lynchpin of the global economy. Until recently, the burgeoning interdependence of globalisation, coupled with the emerging power-houses of India and China, steered the world economic engine and the shipping sector. Sarah Pursey ponders how this picture of sustained and healthy growth has been sullied by the global recession. Furthermore, she offers some shrewd insights into the challenges faced by the industry, including environmental pressures and, on the flip side, eco-friendly marine products and innovations.

  • Business Ingenuity: Unclogging Traffic Arteries

    Business Ingenuity: Unclogging Traffic Arteries

    The ascendency of cumbersome lorries – or 'juggernauts' – as the foremost mode of freight transport across Europe, will be the subject of Euroasia Industry's inaugural feature article for its 'Business Ingenuity' section. Simon Davies directs his inquiry towards the pressing need for alternative, integrated transport solutions, such as 'intermodal' transport, which traverses rail, internal waterways and maritime transport. Also addressed will be the pros and cons of container transport and tracking and, significantly, the reasons why road transport has become so much more popular than rail for freight transfer.

  • Science & Technology: Nanotechnology

    Science & Technology: Nanotechnology

    In this article, Bob Combes sets about investigating the advent of nanotechnology: a transformative technology that will enable materials and products to be built with atomic precision and, which many scientists anticipate will become the manufacturing technology of the future. Examples of their unique and useful properties will be given and their application addressed. For example, their use in major industries, namely medicine, agriculture and energy. Insights will be given into the potential capabilities of this micro-technology, its permutations and possible limitations.

  • Country Focus: Finland

    Country Focus: Finland

    In recent years, Finland has built a modern, highly-industrialised economy in which a cutting-edge telecommunications sector has emerged and thrived. With an industry characterised by electronics and communications, and the first country to launch a digital mobile network, Finland has made a striking transformation since the recession of the early 1990s. Gemma Carter reports on the country that tops international league tables for education, literacy, honesty and the sustainable use of natural resources, and wonders whether, with such a stable economy, there may be something in the water.

Latest editorial

Editor

In the previous edition of Euroasia Industry magazine I wrote that it would be wrong for us to “absolve ourselves of actively engaging to create the world we would want” and that “it is time to play a far more active role in directing [the mechanism of the market] to achieve the goals we have for this remarkable planet”.
