1. Geopolitical risks and what can GlobalRisk Community do for you
The events unfolding in the Arab world, the centre of global oil production, are a reminder that commodities trading is a pure political game. A situation like this has not arisen since Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990. The recent passage of the Suez canal by Iranian war ships make the situation ever more unpredictable and it looks now like a pocket full of firecrackers, just waiting for a spark.
What are the implications of these situations for global trade, energy supplies, and the investment environment for multinationals doing business in the countries involved?
Numerous analysts working for think tanks, large corporates and governments are trying to generate various scenarios and estimate the impact on global stability and markets, and to propose a required response.
In our community we have lots of material related to crisis management, leadership, strategy and security. We are attempting to do more in this area and I hope to inform you soon about new possibilities we can provide to our members with regard to geopolitical analysis.
By the way if you've got a frog for a picture, hurry up and replace it!

3. Would you like to build Your Company page on our platform?
There has been an overwhelming reaction from companies willing to build their company Page on our platform . If your company is not in our multimedia business directory yet, you can still use our action which is valid till April, 1st 2011. We give companies and businesses an option to create the Company Page on our site and maintain it for the entire year FREE of charge (valued at €1000).
What are the benefits of the Company Page?
You will get full control of the page and can include:
cutting edge multimedia – videos, audios, presentations, adverts, white papers, job offers, press releases, product information, company blog, feeds and more.
You will get high ranking in search engines.
This is a much better approach than the standard static business Directories. If you are still relying on directories for online exposure and traffic then you will be missing a numbers of useful opportunities.
Only members who can officially represent a company or a brand will be allowed to create the company page. These include: marketing managers, CEOs and similar positions.
To claim your Company Page, you have to sign out from your personal page and then sign up with a new account, name it as your Company and leave a contact person name in one of the profile fields.
After approval of your page you might remove the gender and the age from the company profile, upload the Logo and start filling up the content of your page using a great variety of options described above. For the technical details you can always contact me at: borisagranovich@globalriskconsult.com
Valuable Tip: You can upload presentations (embed via Slideshare), documents (embed via Box.net). You can use up to 5 additional apps (download via a menu AddApps on the left side of the page)
If you want to embed your presentations – go to Slideshare: http://www.slideshare.net/widgets/presentation-pack they have an embeddable player that will bundle up your presentations (or your favorites) and you could embed it in your Text box on your Page. You can rename the text box to any other name.
For an example of the Company page and what you can do with it you can have a look at the GlobalRiskCommunity page: http://globalriskcommunity.com/profile/GlobalRiskCommunity?xg_source=profiles_memberList
