Lionel Messi Set To Play On FieldTurf
Argentinian superstar joins a star-studded cast on the pitch at Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata
Kolkata, West Bengal, India, Wednesday, August 31, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- All eyes are focused on Salt Lake Stadium, as Argentina's national soccer team is set to face Venezuela in a FIFA international match September 2. After months of preparation, the city of Kolkata is ready to embrace Lionel Messi and the world's finest players at their FIFA 2-Star certified pitch. The event marks the first ever FIFA international match to be played in India - and most certainly provides the country with the prestige and respect it's been seeking within the FIFA community. Salt Lake Stadium features FieldTurf artificial grass, and FIFA officials have certified the high performance pitch to host such a large international soccer event.
The match has stirred quite the buzz around Kolkata, as India prepares to roll out the red carpet for soccer's elite. Stadium officials report over 8 corporate boxes being sold already, with their 120,000 seat venue expected to sellout for the game - a clear indication of the exposure Messi generates when making an appearance on the soccer pitch. FieldTurf could not be more proud to be at the forefront of this match, and provide Messi along with the fellow players a surface revered as the best in the industry.
FIFA recommended fields must pass a series of lab and on-site tests in order to qualify for certification. Many variables are tested such as durability, joint strength, ball-to-surface interaction, shock absorbency, and surface deformation, among others. This tough testing procedure ensures the field has been installed to a certain performance standard. FieldTurf fields earning such distinctions on many of its standard products demonstrate the unwavering quality these fields provide to their owners. With 164 certified fields in the world to date, FieldTurf is not only a leader in that respect but clearly the benchmark for artificial soccer playing surfaces in the eyes of FIFA.
What makes FieldTurf stand out is the way the system is built. A mixture of cryogenic rubber and silica sand form the patented infill formula. It is mixed in between the fiber blades to create a cushioned athlete-friendly surface. The result: a strong and durable turf that replicates real grass to near perfection. Ball bounce is similar to a pristine natural grass surface on FieldTurf, and the game is played more fluidly and faster due to improved traction when running on the surface. The system also reduces injuries, in particular head trauma and concussions. Put all this together and you truly get the best sports turf surfacing option available in the market.
A live telecast will be broadcasted in 152 countries, as fans from all over the globe can tune in and watch these star-studded casts duel it out on the field. Stadium officials are grateful for the exposure expected to generate due to the media, and the world will get to witness Salt Lake Stadium in all of its glory. Argentine assistant coach Julian Camino inspected the pitch last week and was pleased with what he saw. "We are not accustomed to play on the artificial turf, but the turf looks good. We have visited the stadium and we are happy with the arrangements here." There is truly no doubt Salt Lake Stadium is ready for this grant event!
With Kolkata bracing for the arrival of Lionel Messi, FieldTurf will provide Salt Lake stadium officials some peace of mind knowing the surface will be in top shape. Local clubs such as Mohun Bagan A.C., Kingfisher East Bengal F.C., Prayag United S.C. and Mohammedan SC call Salt Lake Stadium home. The venue can now add this FIFA international match to an already impressive resume of events hosted, which also includes the A R Rehman music concert.

"The SVS technology has been proven to be simple to use in clinical practice, because our technology is flexible and our catheter can be easily introduced into all veins, making the procedure easy for physicians to carry out," comments Dr. Sophie Humbert, CEO of CERMAVEIN. "We have a great opportunity to fill a genuine unmet medical need in many markets and thanks to our technology's features, the size of our potential market is significantly increased. For example, in the United States 75 percent of patients need multiple treatments that now could be done in one single session using SVS."
Varicose veins are swollen, twisted, and sometimes painful veins that have filled with an abnormal collection of blood. In normal veins, valves in the vein keep blood moving forward toward the heart. With varicose veins, the valves do not function properly. They occur most commonly, but not only, in the legs and can be caused by several factors. Left untreated, in addition to bad quality of life for people suffering from the condition, varicose veins can cause severe complications, including blood clots, ulcers and necrosis. In the Western world, 10 to 15 percent of adult men and 20 to 25 percent of adult women will suffer from varicose veins and at least half of this population will require treatment. The total market size for varicose veins is estimated at more than $2 billion in Europe and the United States alone, and is growing at a compound annual rate of 40 percent. Varicose vein treatments are among the top five surgical interventions in the Western world.
Varicose veins have traditionally been treated with surgery (stripping), sclerotherapy and endovenous thermal ablation. With SVS, physicians can offer patients a one-time, minimally invasive, significantly less painful ambulatory procedure that is successful on all forms of varicose veins (saphenous, tributary and recurrences). SVS treatment can be applied by vascular surgeons, phlebologists, angiologists or dermatologists in a simple, sterile environment under local anesthesia.
Prof. Martino Neumann of Erasmus University Medical Center, Rotterdam, the Netherlands states that "SVS is probably the treatment of choice for the future. It is a very simple and smart approach: no chemicals, no radiation, just water. SVS avoids carbonization, associated with pain and complications, a frequent result of other endovenous thermal ablation techniques." Pulses of steam are delivered directly into the vein, allowing a homogenous diffusion of heat, which then causes the shrinking of the vein wall and the definitive obliteration of the vein.
CERMAVEIN's SVST system is currently marketed in France, Germany, Spain, The Netherlands, Scandinavia, Israel, Romania and the Baltic States. It has recently been approved for marketing in Canada. CERMAVEIN has recently completed a first round of fund raising to consolidate its existing markets and is preparing a second round financing for the roll-out and expansion of its business.

Aspect Brings Social Media into the Contact Center
Aspect Social Media Channel Integration Allows Organizations to Deliver Better Customer Experience with a Holistic Solution for Responding to Social Media Conversations
New Delhi, Delhi, India, Tuesday, August 30, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- Aspect, a leading provider of customer contact and Microsoft platform solutions, today announced the availability of Aspect® Social Media Channel Integration to help businesses turn social media engagements into productive customer dialogues that create a positive experience and deliver significant business value. With the Aspect solution, organizations can better manage their interactions with today's hyper-connected consumers who are increasingly relying on social media not only to communicate with peers but to seek answers about products and services.
While other customer contact solutions might focus only on identification and routing of social media interactions, Aspect's approach addresses the complete business issue of routing the right issue at the right time to the right resource, managing the resources needed for an effective social media response, and measuring the efficacy of the social media strategy.
Aspect customers can apply Aspect's sophisticated workflow rules, call center performance analytics, and workforce optimization capabilities to social media-based communications. This allows social media communications to be easily integrated into the overall customer contact strategy as a distinct channel, leveraging existing resources and investments. It ensures that this new channel can be compared to and put in the context of the total engagement strategy, rather than remaining an isolated medium.
The Aspect solution provides a powerful engagement framework backed by Aspect® Unified IP®, the company's platform for delivering next-generation customer contact.
The solution manages social media interactions that are identified through virtually any social media monitoring tool customers have in place. Relevant and actionable interactions are identified based on customer-defined criteria, which includes relevant search terms and weighting factors, followers, or perceived sentiment. Actionable interactions are routed to the appropriate agent or knowledge worker, according to specified routing rules. Aspect Social Media Channel Integration customers can productively respond, plan for, and measure social media interactions through Aspect's core interaction management and workforce optimization capabilities.
Aspect's vendor-agnostic approach supports its open standards methodology, giving customers complete freedom as to which social media monitoring tools they choose. This approach also enables Aspect to easily integrate with new social media channels as they emerge.
Analyst Quote:
Sheila McGee-Smith, president & principal analyst, McGee-Smith Analytics
"In the past year, there has been an explosion of discussion about integrating social media into the contact center. While the number of solutions in production is still low, companies are actively seeking to understand their options for adding social media as an additional media type in the contact center with pilots and trials. Aspect's broad contact center solution portfolio allows them to leverage not only contact center routing, queuing and reporting but also workforce optimization and analytics to help companies maximize their social media investments."
Aspect Quote:
Serge Hyppolite, vice president of product management, Aspect
"The popularity and power of social communication channels have made them an integral component of the total customer experience and a critical channel for organizations to manage. Our customers are increasingly incorporating social media into their customer contact strategies to help manage opinion and loyalty associated with their products and services. With Aspect Unified IP and Social Media Channel Integration, organizations are uniquely positioned to extract considerable business value from this communications channel through their existing operations, leveraging the disciplined, impactful, customer-centric approach implemented within their contact centers. Aspect's social engagement capabilities will help our customers turn social interactions with consumers into meaningful, mutually beneficial conversations."

Delve into the Era of Growth 2.0 with Frost & Sullivan at GIL 2011: INDIA, the Global Community of Growth, Innovation and Leadership
Frost & Sullivan also to Discuss - Social Innovation "Need of the Hour to Bridge the Increasing Economic Divide"
Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Monday, August 29, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- Global business is at a fascinating crossroads today, uncertainties of the known is delicately balanced by the promise of the emerging. India, a key constituent of the global business ecosystem, finds itself playing a pivotal role in maintaining this equilibrium. Indian business leaders also face the onus of identifying and securing long-term growth in this dynamic environment. Their choices in turn driven by an appreciation of a multitude of variables: how to innovate to succeed has been pivotal. At its 2011 Global Community of Growth, Innovation and Leadership, Frost & Sullivan will discuss CEOs perspective on growth and at the same time host the Leadership Panel, which will focus on Growth 2.0. This panel answers the million-dollar question, "Is the growth that was achieved in the last 10 years sustainable for the next 10?" Better still - "can they plan for even higher levels of growth, given the enormous potential of the domestic markets that have been hitherto untapped?"
Frost & Sullivan's Global Community of Growth, Innovation and Leadership conference this year will take place for two consecutive days on September 27th - 28th, 2011 at Grand Hyatt (Santa Cruz-East), Mumbai. "We will examine the dynamics of growth and various tools and processes companies can use to grow their business," says David Frigstad, Chairman, Frost & Sullivan, who will deliver the keynote address at the event. "We will develop relationships and participate in discussions focused on rethinking and strengthening companies' growth strategies. We will uncover new opportunities for growth through identifying unmet needs and the innovations required to respond to a changing world."
According to Anand Rangachary, Managing Director - South Asia, Middle East and North Africa, Frost & Sullivan, "The three most critical success factors for any corporate to look beyond the current economic and industry constraints and focus on sustainability are growth, innovation and leadership."
On the challenges in India, Anand said, "One of the core focus of the Congress is 'innovation'. While each sector has unique challenges toward pursuing innovation as a key growth strategy, some generic challenges that the congress will deliberate on include mindset shift for organisations, government/regulatory support, partnership with academia, human capital management and product development focused on domestic markets. The focus on 'growth' would be equally significant. With having a global perspective no longer being a luxury - but a necessity for organizations, how should small and medium size enterprises deal with a relentlessly globalizing external environment and how can they learn from the best practices of their larger counterparts who have success stories to share, is what this Congress will endeavour to achieve."
The CEOs Perspective on Growth will showcase Frost & Sullivan's knowledge on six specific fronts that drive Growth, Innovation and Leadership otherwise referred to as "The Six Platforms of Growth, Innovation and Leadership." This will empower companies to develop a greater visionary perspective on their industry, create more innovative growth strategies and implement them at best practice levels. Additional discussions in uncovering growth opportunities will include a focus on the top 10 global Mega Trends and their impact on business, cultures and society.

Delve into the Era of Growth 2.0 with Frost & Sullivan at GIL 2011: INDIA, the Global Community of Growth, Innovation and Leadership
Frost & Sullivan also to Discuss - Social Innovation "Need of the Hour to Bridge the Increasing Economic Divide"
Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Monday, August 29, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- Global business is at a fascinating crossroads today, uncertainties of the known is delicately balanced by the promise of the emerging. India, a key constituent of the global business ecosystem, finds itself playing a pivotal role in maintaining this equilibrium. Indian business leaders also face the onus of identifying and securing long-term growth in this dynamic environment. Their choices in turn driven by an appreciation of a multitude of variables: how to innovate to succeed has been pivotal. At its 2011 Global Community of Growth, Innovation and Leadership, Frost & Sullivan will discuss CEOs perspective on growth and at the same time host the Leadership Panel, which will focus on Growth 2.0. This panel answers the million-dollar question, "Is the growth that was achieved in the last 10 years sustainable for the next 10?" Better still - "can they plan for even higher levels of growth, given the enormous potential of the domestic markets that have been hitherto untapped?"
Frost & Sullivan's Global Community of Growth, Innovation and Leadership conference this year will take place for two consecutive days on September 27th - 28th, 2011 at Grand Hyatt (Santa Cruz-East), Mumbai. "We will examine the dynamics of growth and various tools and processes companies can use to grow their business," says David Frigstad, Chairman, Frost & Sullivan, who will deliver the keynote address at the event. "We will develop relationships and participate in discussions focused on rethinking and strengthening companies' growth strategies. We will uncover new opportunities for growth through identifying unmet needs and the innovations required to respond to a changing world."
According to Anand Rangachary, Managing Director - South Asia, Middle East and North Africa, Frost & Sullivan, "The three most critical success factors for any corporate to look beyond the current economic and industry constraints and focus on sustainability are growth, innovation and leadership."
On the challenges in India, Anand said, "One of the core focus of the Congress is 'innovation'. While each sector has unique challenges toward pursuing innovation as a key growth strategy, some generic challenges that the congress will deliberate on include mindset shift for organisations, government/regulatory support, partnership with academia, human capital management and product development focused on domestic markets. The focus on 'growth' would be equally significant. With having a global perspective no longer being a luxury - but a necessity for organizations, how should small and medium size enterprises deal with a relentlessly globalizing external environment and how can they learn from the best practices of their larger counterparts who have success stories to share, is what this Congress will endeavour to achieve."
The CEOs Perspective on Growth will showcase Frost & Sullivan's knowledge on six specific fronts that drive Growth, Innovation and Leadership otherwise referred to as "The Six Platforms of Growth, Innovation and Leadership." This will empower companies to develop a greater visionary perspective on their industry, create more innovative growth strategies and implement them at best practice levels. Additional discussions in uncovering growth opportunities will include a focus on the top 10 global Mega Trends and their impact on business, cultures and society.
GIL 2011: India will offer valuable experience as it brings together some of today's greatest visionaries, innovators and leaders across various industries who will provide the required competitive intelligence that empowers leaders to stay ahead of the curve by generating and implementing practical, innovative solutions.

Heal the world, says Mickey Mehta
India's Leading holistic health guru launches initiative that spreads the message of love and compassion and appeals 'Each One to Reach One'
Mumbai, Maharashtra, India, Monday, August 29, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- It's not a revolutionary product he's discovered to get fit quick; or a signature service he's created that promises health for life. No, just as Michael Jackson implored his fans everywhere to simply 'Heal The World' Heal The World Heal The WorldHeal Heal The Worldheal T in his path-breaking 1991 hit, so is Mickey Mehta reminding emotionally bankrupt Indians that love and compassion are all the ingredients required to make the world a better place to be in.
"We can't do great things with little love, but we can do small things with great love," explains the holistic health guru, life coach and philosopher of several eminent Indians. Lest you don't get the idea, Mickey says, "People have become calculating and selfish, there is extreme jealousy everywhere, we are stingy even with our smiles, restrained in our thanks. for what, there is such joy in giving, such satisfaction in sharing, such bliss in simply caring."
It does not require a press conference to tell people that, but what Mickey is hoping to do with his no-costs, no-strings-attached Heal The World initiative, is get people to reach out at whatever level they are economically and socially comfortable, and make some lesser person's day. "It could be with ten rupees to a beggar at a signal, it could be with rations, education, medical aid or clothes to the people who work for you, it could be just a smile to a distressed stranger," he says, adding, "don't wait for an occasion to start sharing and caring, let your day start and end with it."
He got the inspiration when he saw how effective his portal, www.mickeymehtahbf.com, was in changing people's lives. It is said among wellness enthusiasts that just spending 5 minutes on this exhaustive health and wellness portal, can benefit a person's life for the next 5 years. and at no cost. Now, Mickey wants to reach out through his legion of friends and followers on Facebook and make the world a better place. And just as Michael Jackson preferred to stay out of his Heal The World video and let the lyrics and images of children reaching out to help others tell the story, Mickey's message is, "Let's do it together."
If giving, sharing and caring does not come easy to you, but you are starting to feel the stirrings of belief in this concept, then follow Mickey Mehta on Facebook and let him show you the way. He's taught people how to swim, to exercise breath be healthy, to live better lives, now he wants to show you how to be caring and make the difference. "That's the first step towards universal compassion," he insists. "Unleash the kindness within yourself, philanthropy begins at the grassroots level, we all have love within ourselves. and even a smile or a prayer in good faith can unleash a powerful and joyous response. The time has come to heal the world."
Sharing his infectious enthusiasm, is India Inc matriarch Mrs. Rajashree Birla, who in a Video recorded message that expressed heartfelt support to Mickey and showed her lighting a lamp to launch the movement with him, said, "Heal the World is a very noble concept. Just as we now lit a lamp, and this one lamp can light another lamp, so too if one person helps another, it will be wonderful. each one must reach one."
The event was hosted by the very polite and gracious Raageshwari Loomba at Amadeus, NCPA, Mumbai. Amadeus particularly was chosen as the venue since the translation of this Latin name quite literally means the "Love of God" and it was the ideal setting to announce the launch of an initiative driven by love and compassion.
