New Global Business Order
The Global Information Stage
Globalization may be a controversial subject in political circles, but, as far as Trade and Commerce are concerned, globalization is the way of Business—smart businesses, in fact, have already accepted the reality and adopted it. For a business person, it is easy to observe that whether a business is a ‘local operation’ or an international conglomerate, it is, somehow – at some stage, connected to the global supply chain.
‘Trade Wars’ and ‘Sanctions’ aside, the big corporations are either already fully invested, or moving full speed ahead to operate and participate in the global arena.
From the ‘Belt and Road Initiative’ to the Regional Trade Alliances like the EU/EEA, NAFTA (or its successor), TPP, SCO, FTAA, Mercosur, etc. etc. are changing the way businesses and entrepreneurs plan and manage their operations.
China—in terms of Real/PPP GDP by far the world’s largest economy (it’s economy-in real terms, surpassed the US economy back in 2013), is leading the pack towards the New Economic World Order moving into the age of global ‘Open for All’ business environment.
The Belt and Road Initiative itself is opening the trade and commerce opportunities in – and for, the regions that until now had been isolated and closed to the world—from the like of Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Cambodia to the smaller economies in Africa, South America, and south-eastern Europe. It is opening up the commerce and trade opportunities for all the entrepreneurs and business that didn’t exists before.
It is – sort of, ‘Once-in-a-Lifetime’ opportunity for any and all the businesses that are ready and prepared to embrace the New Global Business Order—participate in the global market palce and reap the rewards.
The selling, support, and marketing platforms, like the Ali Baba—with its array of subsidiaries and other arms like Lazada, AliExpress, Paytm, Tmall, Taobao Global, and with penetration into 150 plus countries — JD.com (Jingdong), Tancent, Kaola, WooCommerce (WordPress plugin), BigCommerce, VTEX, and Shopify etc. etc. are — to a great degree, providing a level playing field to the smaller businesses all across the world.
These platforms are the essential tools – or vehicles, that collectively — by digitizing the entire retail value chain, provide an international e-commerce marketplace to all the businesses — big or small. What it means is that small and medium-sized brands, physical stores and local and international businesses all have access to the same market, support tools, data, and digital infrastructure to sell the products and services and conduct business.
The business envoironment has certainly changed from what it used to be just a decade ago.
To say that the business world is in a state of constant flux is, in fact, an understatement. We are going through a period of unprecedented and ‘taboo shattering’ revolutionary changes. In the business world, it is indeed a ‘New World Order’.
Whatever the business be, it has to be ready to play on the Global Stage. It is the global arena. The Supply-and-Demand chain is global. There is no business that can be considered as purely a ‘local business’. Business are all interconnected—Globally.
With the Globalization of Business and Trade comes a unique set of ‘Rules-of-the-Game’, requirements, risks—and Rewards.
To survive and thrives in this new global market, businesses need to be fully prepared and ready to skirt the risks, and reap the high-rewards of plying on the global stage.
One major point to pay attention to is the fact that with so many entities and nations involved in the process of conducting the business, things may change quite abruptly. Businesses, therefore, need to be alert and well prepared for any and all eventualities.
Risk Management, in particular, takes a completely new meaning at the gloabl stage. For example; how to handle a situation if the business is cut off from it sources and supply chain — What to do if the market is shut closed upon you?
Businesses need all the essential information—plans, partners, and alternative sources, available to them in order to prevail over the obstacles and succeed.
To play at the global scale, and participate in the ‘Win-Win’ game, both the businesses and entrepreneurs need all the essential information to chart the right course to avert the pitfalls, mitigate the risks, and achieve success for their enterprises.
All the businesses, whether the startups enterprises or the running operations, need access to information—both current and historical: relevant, easily understandable, to-the point, and useful.
We are indeed in the Information Age
For a Business to flourish in the global arena, essential Historical and Current Data, Analysis, Information, and Business Insights are needed to:
- Identify and Research New Target Markets.
- Assess Market Shares and Track Competition.
- Monitor the Emerging Trends and evaluate Future Demand.
- Note the Factors Effecting the Price Fluctuations.

- Anticipate and Prepare for the ‘Unexpected’ and Abrupt Changes.

Humans by nature - or by need, are traders. We trade our work, services, produce, or products for money. Then, we exchange that money for the goods and services that we need. Any excess/leftover money is either directly invested or deposited in the banks—thus, making the money to recirculate in the economy again.
