Studien undersöker på vilket sätt nystartade företag använder CRM system och hur det stödjer organisationen. För att genomföra studien har vi intervjuat två nystartade företag. Intervjuerna har utförts via e-post med en person på respektive företag. Mycket av den litteratur som finns inom området CRM, CRM system och CRM strategier beskriver hur det används inom stora eller medelstora företag. Med
China’s economic development has not only led to enormous growth figures, but also to a severe degradation of the environment. Mass-consumption of fossil fuels like oil and coal in China contributed to reaching the level of the largest greenhouse gas emitter worldwide. For the Chinese government to react, it is crucial to take the electricity purchase decisions of households into account to succes
Background: The topics of supply chain management and innovation have, disjointedly, been in the spotlight for some time. However, the combined topic, supply chain innovation, have only recently begun to attract academic interest, and there is a vast gap between literature and industry demand. Most of the existing research on supply chain innovation concerns incremental innovation; little research
In adaptive deep brain stimulation, a treatment for motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease, the target of the stimulus is usually in the sub-thalamic nucleus or the globus pallidus. In this thesis, a new stimulus target called reticular thalamus is investigated in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease. The responses to the stimulus were recorded from both local field potentials and action potentials f
In recent years, a new technology for location based functionality has emerged. The technology is called Bluetooth Low Energy, or Bluetooth Smart, and allows a device to emit low energy Bluetooth signals to its surroundings. When picked up by modern smart phones, these signals can be used to provide the user with a physical location. Unlike other positioning technologies, such as GPS, this technol
Integrerade kolonnsekvenser är ett effektivt system för användning av kromatografi processer, inom läkemedelsindustrin, där olika processer kopplas i serie. Detta medför dock ett problem, och i detta arbete ska ett alternativ undersökas som kan vara en lösning. I läkemedelsindustrin under tillverkningen utav proteiner, innehåller oftast lösningen från reaktorn flera olika proteiner och dessa måstIn the pharmaceutical industry when proteins are being formed, the solution often consists of different kinds of proteins and these have to be separated to a high degree. A common process for this is chromatography. In this work a system of chromatography columns were coupled in series to separate a mixture of three proteins. The system consisted of three chromatography columns with mixers in betw
Bakgrund fetma har blivit ett stort hälsoproblem som drabbar människor fysiskt, psykiskt och socialt. För hälso -och sjukvården är fetma en utmaning och behovet av effektiv behandling är stort. Lågkolhydratkost rekommenderas av Statens beredning för medicinsk utvärdering men kunskapen har ännu inte nått ut till alla de sjuksköterskor som ger kostråd, därför kan det finnas brister i kostrådgivninge
Internet of Things är ett koncept som har diskuterats flitigt inom IT-branschen sedan uttrycket myntades av Kevin Ashton år 1999. En etablering och implementering av IoT-produkter spås få ett stort genomslag i samhället. Dock har röster även höjts för att det kommer stanna vid att vara endast ett buzz-word och att dess användning i praktiken inte når upp till förväntning- arna. Utmaningarna vid ut
GaSb semiconducting nanowires attract significant attention due to their potential application as quantum devices, single-hole transistors and solar cells. However, the synthesis of high-quality nanowires is quite complex and needs further investigation. In this project the growth mechanism of Sn-seeded GaSb nanowires on {111}A GaSb substrates is studied. Nanowires grown by metal-organic vapor pha
Syftet med den här studien är att studera tillväxten under perioden 1992 fram till våren 2016 för andra generationens granskog efter tidigare genomförd kalkning. Skogen och skogsproduktionen är och har länge varit en stor och viktig del i Sveriges utveckling och ekonomi. Att studera tillväxten av skog är därför av stort intresse för många aktörer inom svenska skogsindustrin. I slutet av 1960-taletThis study aims to investigate the growth of a spruce forest, where the soil has been treated with lime before planting. The study period reaches from 1992, when the spruces were planted until 2016. In Sweden, the forest industry plays an important role of the country´s development and economic conditions. A study of forest growth is therefore of large interest for many actors within the Swedish f
This project concerns the contemporary situation of niche films on video on demand platforms operating in Denmark. The research draws upon mostly primary sources through interviews with Danish distributors and is being analyzed with the Long Tail theory by Chris Anderson to determine niche films greatest challenges. This study argues that the proposed initiatives to solve the problems are not adeq
One of the overall main purposes for a structural engineer is to design structures and structural elements so that they meet society’s safety requirements, yet use as little material as possible. In order to do so, the designer has to understand and simplify a complex reality. The strut-and-tie method is such a simplification model which allows engineers to design reinforced concrete structures wh
Over the last decades sustainability reporting has developed as a global trend among international corporations as the debates regarding global warming and sustainable development have been heating up. International organisations and governmental institutions are setting the agenda for the development by introducing goals and regulations on a global, regional and national scale. The EU’s introduct
The European Nations foresees a growing population and a trending urbanization which, pose significant health, environmental and social concerns. Municipal decision makers attempt to leverage the smart city concept as a means to maintain the prepossessed living standard in the city because they cannot manage the radical change themselves. However, the smart city concept force municipalities outsid
Hur en privatinvesterare ska agera för att lyckas generera god avkastning på fondmarkanden är något som har intresserat många. En strategi för att generera god avkastning kan vara att investera i de fonder som tidigare år har uppvisat god prestation och hoppas på att så kallad Persistence of Performance existerar. Denna uppsats ämnar undersöka om det föreligger en skillnad i investeringsstrategierHow a private investor should act to obtain high return on the fund market is a subject that has been of interest to many. One strategy to gain high returns could be to invest in funds that have performed well in previous years and hope that so-called Persistence of Performance exists. This study aims to investigate if there is a difference in investment strategies based on high and low historical
Den virtuella vårdmottagningen är en växande lösning för distansvård och utvecklingen leder till oundvikliga förändringar för en medarbetares arbetssätt och för hur distanssjukvårdsrådgivning kan skötas med hjälp av videokonsultation. För att förstå värdet av virtuella vårdcentraler är det angeläget att undersöka vilka fördelar respektive nackdelar det finns utifrån medarbetares perspektiv. Denna
