Reflection about The Business Management and

Allied Business Courses Week

The College of Business and Accountancy implemented a Business Management

and Business Allied Courses Week that contributed a lot for student’s knowledge and
wisdom about the theme Technopreneurship in the Post-Pandemic: Navigating Towards
Resilience. It lets the student open their minds about the reality behind digital that helped
shaped the world especially the times during the pandemic. Technopreneurship is the
latest buzzword in the field of entrepreneurship. It is considered the next big thing in the
start-up ecosystem. As defined by the Collins Dictionary, “technopreneur are
entrepreneurs who start and manage their own technology business.” The term was first
used in the year 1987. But it gained popularity around the 2000s when a large number of
people started using the Internet. The term technopreneurship is a fusion of two words,
technology, and entrepreneurship. It is a kind of entrepreneurship in the field of
technology. It involves tech-savvy, creative, innovative individuals who have a knack for
taking a calculated risk, unlike entrepreneurship, which can sometimes be a one-person
show. The success of a technopreneur depends on how well they can motivate a team of
individuals. So, the success of any technopreneurship start-up involves a group of
dedicated people with different skill sets and resources working hand in hand. A
technopreneur starts with a new idea. This idea has the potential to change the way
society has been traditionally functioning. They create a new product or come up with a
solution to some problem using technology. So, science and technology are the hallmarks
of technopreneurship.There are certain critical areas that a technopreneur needs to focus
on. It can be the Information and Technology (IT) sector, electronics, biotechnology, hi-
tech products, technology use in delivering essential services, and service firms where the
primary mission is technology.

As a person who experienced the difficulties under the COVID 19 pandemic, I

understand how difficult it is most especially to the businessowners and marketers.
Omnichannel marketing is popular amongst businesses of all sizes. But what is it and
how can it help your business? In short, omnichannel marketing is the integration of
different touchpoints and communication channels used to interact with customers. It’s a
customer-first approach allowing for a consistent experience across the board. The vision
is to deliver meaningful experiences as well as educate and empower the customer. It’s
important to note that omnichannel marketing is channel agnostic – meaning there’s no
preference to any particular channel. Instead, it’s a case of channels working together
harmoniously at different parts of a customer’s journey. A commonly used example of
omnichannel at work is buying a coffee at Starbucks. Rather than making customers wait
for their coffee in-store – waiting in line, followed by waiting for it to be made. Starbucks
produced an app, allowing people to place their order through and pay by mobile prior to
arriving at the store. This meant customers just had to collect their coffee and be on their
merry way.

Technology was one of our weapon and one of the important thing that helped us
during our lives of difficulties during the COVID 19 pandemic. Technology is reshaping
travel and tourism experiences for both customers and businesses.  technology is a very
necessary factor that plays a very important role in the process of disease detection,
control and management. Without the proper technologies for detection of COVID-19,
treatment would not have been possible. Communication is thus enhanced, and
companies can communicate more easily with foreign countries. Research is also
simplified. For companies, progress in implementing strategic technology trends is
helping them save time and therefore, money. Exchanges are faster especially with the
internet. The biggest growth areas include: Using software programs to address literacy
gaps among elementary school students. Expanding the use of learning management
systems, which even the most tech-phobic teachers now turn to for at least basic
classroom management tasks.

The said activity also explained how the logistics start ups create a big impact in
our lives during the pandemic. Startups have become an important factor in the logistics
market. Despite their enormous innovation potential, however, their role as partners or
competitors for established logistics service providers (LSPs) has not been explored so
far. There are also many benefits to starting a logistics startup as well. These companies
can help businesses save money on shipping and transportation costs. They can also
provide a more efficient and convenient way to move goods around the country or the
world. In addition, logistics startups can help businesses keep track of their inventory and
shipments, making it easier to manage their supply chain.

Nowadays, a lot of private data that should be kept were spreading especially on
the internet. The Business Management and Allied Business courses week taught us on
how we should keep our data privacy safe. Data protection is important, since it prevents
the information of an organization from fraudulent activities, hacking, phishing, and
identity theft. Any organization that wants to work effectively need to ensure the safety
of their information by implementing a data protection plan. Data privacy is also
important because in order for individuals to be willing to engage online, they have to
trust that their personal data will be handled with care. Organizations use data protection
practices to demonstrate to their customers and users that they can be trusted with their
personal data.
