Spiru Haret University

Spiru Haret University is a private university located in Bucharest, Romania. It was established in 1991 by Aurelian Gh. Bondrea, the president of Tomorrow's Romania Organisation, as a component of the educational initiatives undertaken by this foundation. The university asserts that this was carried out in accordance with the paradigm that was developed at Harvard University. Spiru Haret, a scientist and reformer of the education system in Romania who lived before World War I and gave his name to the institution, is honoured by having the university wear his name.
The institution received its accreditation from the National Council of Academic Evaluation and Accreditation of Higher Education Institutions (NCA EAC) on February 14, 2000. Statute no. 443 from July 5, 2002, which has not been repealed, was the law that ratified the university's foundation. This law is still in effect.
According to the information that was released by the university in July of 2010, it has 30 faculties with 49 specialities and 64 master's degree programmes, and it is the biggest university in Romania, according to the daily Financiarul. In 2009, the number of students enrolled was estimated to be 311 928. A publication made the erroneous claim that it was the biggest institution in the world by referring to the number of students that it had. After Islamic Azad Institution, it is the world's second-largest private university by student enrollment (with 1.3 million students).
A former president of Romania, Ion Iliescu, as well as Pope John Paul II, have both been awarded honorary doctorates by the institution.
In 2011, the Spiru Haret Institution received an official evaluation that classified it as a "education-centered university," which is the third and lowest educational quality category of all the universities in Romania. Universities focused on education no longer have the right to organise programmes leading to the doctoral degree. The rankings for Romanian universities were released in July 2017, and Spiru Haret University came in at position 27 out of 103 total institutions.

Spokesperson

A person who is engaged or chosen to speak on behalf of others is referred to as a spokesperson, spokesman, or spokeswoman.
It is increasingly likely that many organisations will hire professionals who have received formal training in journalism, communications, public relations, and public affairs for this role in the present media-sensitive world. This is done in order to ensure that public announcements are made in the most appropriate manner and through the most appropriate channels in order to maximise the impact of favourable messages and minimise the impact of unfavourable messages.
Celebrity spokespeople, such as well-known local and national sports figures (like Michael Jordan for Nike and Coca-Cola) or television and film stars (like Beyoncé for Pepsi and L'Oreal), are often selected to act as spokesmen for commercial advertising campaigns.
In contrast to an individual who is presenting a personal testimony, it is the responsibility of a spokesperson to honestly represent and argue for the organization's viewpoints, even if these opinions are in direct opposition to the spokesperson's own perspective. As a consequence of this, spokespeople are often chosen from among experienced, long-term workers or other individuals who are well-known to support the objectives of the business.
A company's chief executive officer, chairman, president, chief financial officer, counsel, or an external legal adviser are the individuals who are authorised to represent the organisation in public settings. In addition, the role may be given to the corporate communications or investor relations departments (or equivalents), who will function as spokesmen on a day-to-day basis and for more regular announcements. In this scenario, the position entails making more general statements.
As an example, in the field of particle physics, huge collaborations of physicists often vote on one (or two) spokesmen to serve as the leader(s) of the collaboration. In situations like this, the person who should be serving as the spokesman is the main scientist of the partnership, not a public speaker. For reasons internal to the cooperation, the functions and responsibilities of the spokesperson are selected by the collaborators. However, spokespeople often have roles that are specified in relation to interfacing with the host laboratory and/or funding organisations.

Sport management

__NOINDEX__
Sport management is a branch of company that deals with sports and recreational activities. When it comes to overseeing a sports organisation or company, sports management encompasses a wide range of competencies, from strategic planning and organisational development to day-to-day operations management and financial planning.
Many schools and institutions offer undergraduate and graduate degrees in sports management.

Sports agent

A sports agent is a legal representation (thus the term agent) for professional players and coaches who are involved in the sports industry. They are in charge of procuring and negotiating employment and endorsement contracts on behalf of the athlete or coach that they are working with. Because of the particular features of the sports business, sports agents are in charge of all interactions with club owners, managers, and other key stakeholders in the organisation. Aside from that, they have the responsibility of providing suggestions. In addition to identifying new sources of revenue, agents often assist their customers with public relations issues. Agents at certain major sports agencies, such as IMG, Creative Artists Agency, Roc Nation Sports, and Octagon, are responsible for all areas of a client's financial affairs, from investing to tax preparation and filing.
Sports agents may be depended upon by their clients for advice in all areas of the business, and in certain cases, even in more general matters. For example, hockey agents begin recruiting clients as early as 15 years old, enabling the agency to steer the athlete's career prior to the NHL draught, which occurs at the age of 18 years old on most occasions.

Sports betting

Sports betting is the practice of making predictions about the outcomes of sporting events and then putting bets on those predictions.
Bettors on sports may place their bets lawfully via a bookmaker or sportsbook, or they can do so illegally through privately managed businesses that are referred to as "bookies." There is a reference to the books that wage brokers use to keep track of bets, payments, and debts. The name "book" refers to these books. Many legal sportsbooks can be found online. These sportsbooks are typically run over the Internet from jurisdictions that are distinct from the customers they serve. This is typically done in order to circumvent various gambling laws (such as the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act of 2006 in the United States) in specific markets, such as Las Vegas, or on gambling cruises through self-service kiosks. The legalization of sports betting has resulted in the creation of a variety of betting options, including future bets, parlays props, and game betting. "Up-front" wagering means that the bettor is required to make a payment to the sportsbook before making the wager. On account of the nature of their business, illegal bookmakers are able to operate in any location; nevertheless, they only want money from bettors who have lost their money. They do not require the money that has been wagered up front, which creates the risk of the gambler owing money to the bookie. Because of this, a lot of other criminal aspects are created, which further contributes to their illegality.
The integrity of sporting events has been compromised by a number of scandals involving sports betting. These scandals have been caused by a variety of acts, such as point shaving (in which players affect the score by missing shots), spot-fixing (in which a player action is fixed), bad calls from officials at key moments, and overall match-fixing (in which the overall result of the event is fixed). For instance, the 1919 World Series, the suspected illicit gambling of former baseball star Pete Rose, who subsequently acknowledged to it, and the former NBA referee Tim Donaghy are all examples.

Sports journalism

Journalism in sports is a kind of writing that focuses on providing coverage of events and information related to athletic contests and events. The first instances of sports journalism date back to the early 1800s, when it was aimed at members of the social elite. Since then, sports journalism has evolved into an essential component of the news industry, with many newspapers now including dedicated sports sections.
There was a rise in the amount of sports coverage in periodicals as a direct result of the growing popularity of sports among people of the middle class and the lower class. The demand for sports led to the development of media outlets that are exclusively devoted to covering sports, such as Sports Illustrated and ESPN. There are several sub-genres of sports journalism, such as play-by-play and game summaries, as well as analysis and investigative journalism on significant happenings in the sport. The advent of technology and the internet has brought about massive shifts in the landscape of sports journalism, which is currently contending with many of the same challenges that the more general category of print journalism is contending with, most notably an inability to cover costs as a result of declining subscriptions. The present decade has seen a proliferation of new types of online writing, such as blogging and tweeting, which have stretched the limits of sports journalism.
The beginnings of what is now known as modern sports journalism may be traced back to the early 1800s, when information related to sports began to emerge in print media. At the beginning, horse racing and boxing were the only sports that were covered on an irregular basis. In the coverage, less emphasis would be placed on the actual incident, and a greater emphasis would be placed on the larger societal background. Among the social elite, there was a great deal of interest in horse races between the North and the South as well as boxing matches between the United States and England. Pierce Egan, a well-known British sportswriter, is credited with coining the term "the Sweet Science" as an epithet for prizefighting at the beginning of the nineteenth century. More specifically, Egan used the term "the Sweet Science of Bruising" to describe the bare-knuckle fight scene in England at the time.
As a result of its prohibitive cost, the general populace was not a key demographic target for newspapers in the 1820s and 1830s. Instead, these publications catered primarily to the social elite. As the 20th century drew near, a number of significant shifts took place that ultimately led to an increase in the amount of sports journalism that was published in mainstream publications. The first development was the introduction of the penny press, which made the creation of newspapers less expensive and more in the tabloid form. Instead of depending on circulation to cover their production expenses, newspapers started adopting advertising as a revenue stream to do so.

Spotify

Swedish startup Spotify was created on April 23, 2006, by Daniel Ek and Martin Lorentzon as a platform for advertising streaming and media services. At the end of September 2021, it'll be the world's biggest music service provider, with more than 381 million monthly active users, including 172 million paying members. Spotify is traded on the New York Stock Exchange in the form of American depositary receipts (which are issued by a Luxembourg-based holding company, Spotify Technology S.A.).
From record labels and media firms, Spotify provides digitally copyright limited recorded music and podcasts, containing more than 70 million songs. When using a freemium service, the bare minimum of capabilities is provided for free in exchange for commercials and limited control; other features, like as offline playback and commercial-free listening, are only available via paid subscriptions. As of October 2021, Spotify will be accessible in more than 180 countries. Artists, albums, and genres may be searched for by users, and playlists can be created, edited, and shared.
Across addition to most of Europe and the Americas, Oceania and more than 40 African nations (including South Africa and Mauritius) as of July 2021 (including South Africa and Mauritius), Spotify is accessible in Asia and the Pacific. According to projections, Spotify will be available in 178 countries by the end of 2021. Currently, the service is accessible on most current platforms, including PCs running Windows, macOS, and Linux, smartphones and tablets running iOS or Android, as well as AI-enabled smart speakers such as the Amazon Echo and Google Home, among other devices.
Instead of paying artists a set fee per song or album sold via physical or digital sales, Spotify pays royalties based on the amount of artist streams as a percentage of the overall number of songs played through the platform. It distributes around 70% of its overall earnings to rights holders (typically record labels), who in turn pay artists in accordance with their specific contracts with them. It is estimated that around 13,000 out of seven million Spotify artists would produce $50,000 or more in payouts in 2020, according to Ben Sisario of The New York Times.

https://www.linkedin.com/company/11674095/
The company specializes in applied molecular spectroscopy (UV-Vis-NIR-MIR) providing Process Analytical Instrumentation (PAI) solutions for on-line/in-line analysis and monitoring of industrial processes (product streams).Research and development of new analytical instrumentation and solutions along with multivariate calibration is an integral part of Sprana's business. 
==Value Proposition==
The UAN blending production process efficiency would be increased due to RFT (Right from the First Time), resulting in a shorter production time, an increased production capacity and maximized commercial opportunities (more completed orders in less time). This would lead to reduced energy consumption (less hot steam and electricity), thereby minimizing the harmful effects on the environment (reduced NOx and CO2 emissions).
Accurate continuous/real-time measurements enable better control of the quality of the UAN in the production process and facilitate the transition to Industry 4.0 through the implementation of APC (Advanced Process Control) and Digital Twins solutions.
==Stamicarbon symposium NASTEM 2023==

Spreadsheet

A spreadsheet is a piece of software that may be used on a computer to do computations, as well as organise, analyse, and store data in tabular form. Spreadsheets are a digital equivalent of accounting worksheets that were formerly kept on paper. The software processes the information that is input into the respective table cells. Data in the form of numbers or text may be entered into each cell, as well as the results of formulae that automatically compute and display a value depending on the contents of other cells. Spreadsheet is another name that may be used to refer to these kinds of electronic documents.
Users of the spreadsheet may change any stored value and immediately see how their changes affect the computed numbers. Because of this, the spreadsheet is ideal for conducting "what-if" analyses since it allows for the quick investigation of a large number of scenarios without the need for manual recalculation. The most recent iterations of spreadsheet software allow for the creation of many sheets that may communicate with one another and show data either as text, digits, or in graphical form.
In addition to being able to conduct basic arithmetic and mathematical operations, current spreadsheets are equipped with pre-programmed features for frequently used financial accounting and statistical procedures. Calculations like net present value and standard deviation may be performed on tabular data by using a function that has been pre-programmed inside a formula. In addition to this, spreadsheet applications have functions that can convert between text and numbers, functions that can act on strings of text, and functions that can convert between text and numbers.
In the realm of business, paper-based methods have been mostly superseded by digital spreadsheets. While they were first intended for use in accounting or bookkeeping chores, their scope of use has now been broadened to include almost every situation in which tabular lists need to be constructed, sorted, or shared.
