This is an illustrated celebration of the pioneering development of Formula E - the FIA-approved class of auto racing dedicated to electric-powered cars.The Founding Partners of Formula E decided that the event would be a platform to boost sustainable innovations, a gateway to the cities of tomorrow and alternative transport. After the very first Formula E season in 2014-2015, this dream is already becoming a reality - and the best is yet to come. Without fear or favour, Formula E is now moving forward with a critical and (more importantly) enthusiastic approach to encouraging and promoting development of the format. You will find in this book examples of innovations developed at Formula E, or for which Formula E is a fast-track to growth. The set-up of the race is in itself an exceptional event. Here we focus on what is happening behind the scenes. As you will see, Formula E is (much) more than a race. Year after year, we will update this book with new innovations and new exciting partnerships.

With the increasing globalisation of businesses and markets, inter-cultural negotiation is becoming an increasingly important part of many companies' day-to-day business. Negotiations between executives from different cultures can be difficult and challenging, even for the experienced executive. The key is not just to understand the cultural differences, but to learn how to take advantage of them, rather than simply overcome them. This practical book provides a roadmap to successful intercultural negotiation. It is packed with example, tips and advice, based on the author's extensive experience in this area. Many businesses are now focusing on the East-West divide. This important book shows how these intercultural issues can crop up much closer to home as well - for example in transatlantic negotiation, or even (perhaps especially) intra-European negotiation.
