The production and distribution of energy stocks are governed by regulations and legal obligations. As carbon emissions are increasingly coming under the scope of restricted regulations and climate litigation, energy producers and consumers are seeking innovative and cost-effective development of energy stocks that will comport with the growing body of law. Tech Entrepreneurs are coming to the rescue. Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) is pipeline-ready gas that can be distributed through existing infrastructure. Sourcing RNG is an issue.

The general rule of thumb is that most family-owned businesses do not make it past the third generation. However, there are exceptions to this rule. Singapore Management University(SMU) provided an insightful article based on a study of family businesses that failed or succeeded past the 3rd generation rule. One interesting observation is that decoupling management from ownership tends to favor survival rates. The ability to relate 3rd generation owners to educational opportunities is also a factor that SMU identified as a survival metric. MGSN has been covering intrapreneur corporate platforms as a means to retain talent and build opportunities for…

Debarment is not without critics. The loss of trade hurts the very marginalized communities that AGOA was intended to…

“Real gross domestic product (GDP) increased at an annual rate of 4.9 percent in the third quarter of 2023 according to the “advance” estimate released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). In the second quarter, real GDP increased 2.1 percent.” Consumer spending on essentials is a predictable metric in projecting GDP rates. The third quarter results include the summer spending on luxury items, vacations, restaurants, and summer travel. Conventional wisdom is that the splurge will continue in Q4 as the first fully recovered post-COVID holiday season is becoming a reality. There is evidence that manufacturing is gearing up for…
R&D is providing solutions. MGSN covers ocean-to-energy research and entrepreneurial solutions. Researchers at the University of Sydney have researched the viability of utilizing seawater to produce an alternative to lithium for Energy Storage from Renewable resources. The refinement of ocean water produces sulfur salt compounds. Sodium batteries are not new tech. The problem with the batteries that precluded widespread use is the need to provide a high-temperature source for efficacy. According to the University of Sydney, research led by Dr. Shenlong Zhao from the University’s School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering department and his research team overcome the temperature barriers…
