EconomistFashion.com (edutech*fintech)- what are fashion, youth friendship, peace and japans greatest connection with maolympics going to be, and how can this be celebrated along every Belt Road participating nation 

so the question i ask you -whether its oneworlldkimono or any of each of your favorite frendship or culture networks -  to consider is how you sell to jack ma and how to turn the communities for all (and education beyond classroom) collaboration chalenge into student union clkubs everywhere

my first recmmendation (because it costs next to nothing to do and can show trust) is to publish a series consider japan-china-bangladesh and leave copies in jacks partners offices like BRAC (bkash) at the places visitors wait

 56 years of consider post colonial win-win tradees east to west

MAOLYMPICS.com - japan is in such a privileged position it has august 1 2018 to august 1 to 2019 to arrange g20 kyoto- jack gave aup about 6 months of his time working on hangzhou g20 because of his sposorship of the olympics it would be so rude if whomever runs japan g20 doesnt ask for his help furst given he is the un's number 1 youth entrepreneur and assuming japan dies want its g20 to include youth (the trial korea olmpics started well; by the time we get to beijing winter olympics we need to be flkying so that the china-ma-rejuvenation dream makes the american dream so very 20th century- we then land on paris 2024 climate where we know macron , jinping and bbc 4-prince chales nature correspodents are dying to help

the specific question is how are YOU UNIQUELY going to help jack with  http://www.maolympics.com 

for student unions to catalogue all the greatest community for all celebrations- so special olypics is one it alreay hapens in 1000 communities   monicaa yunus http://www.singforhope.org is another it can be spread from new york to anywhere afytre 16 yeras work on musicians response to 9/11

when kimono comes to fashions it will be a crowded field

A Brief And Stunning Visual History Of The Kimono How the iconic Japonisme garment evolved from the 8th century to present day.

jack has already explained he empowers youth to create fashions on taobao - he has trained about 20000 people on thais at 7 massive 3000 person mastercalsses- serious americans came to detroit or toronto to unerstand how to brand this

Gateway '17 Gateway '17

there is absolutely a fashion competition to be help every time the belt road crosses a previously sad border - whenever xi jinping is personally involeved in archotectire projects he insistss on a twin youth zone and developing ongpin activities- kimono art isnt enough with extextile it might be

there is amy's idea to make learning english 10 tiems less costly every time some countries youth want to learn english- ww.hujiang.com organises 20000 live classrooms across china- clearly whatever becomes 5th graders main fashion competition for peace needs to also be a curriculum of fashions- and cultures- one of the cofounders of the committee 100 already runs the silk road cultural entrepreneur club - we sort of ought to have talked to him by now

there is the idea brac and others eg mostofa's frineds in india who runs the guiness book of records worls laregst school and the only one ceritfied by unesco to offer peace as an action curriculum= already use in primary school- they dont just teach languages but they develop content for 3rd grade to see diffent countries citures- of course this goes back to the number 1 think jack ma spent all his time on until he was 30 as a tourist guide learning what was outside china

ian's frend who advises prince charles has laready told charels he sgould reorganise all of teh palaces;s community works as if they were a trip advisor to how you could get involeved in your communit- prince charels needs to bring taht to tokyo 2020 and ask jack to do it for every country starting with english and chiense additions, by all means talk to jica or someone and get trilingual; if you do find someone to adopt the princes trip advisor we will need that person to be the main japanese connector of all of above -one reason why is the biggest uk investirs alongside charels are teh sainsburys family who are good freidns of my father and lead prince charleslauresets for microeneregy

my point is that whatever is the lead fashipons for community and peace and arts-clotehes, extextiles brads has to be the one jack ma sees as the graeest collaborator

since i need to talk about this in 2 weeks time in dhaka - and since i have no talent fir fashions- i would recommend you see if amy can pull together all of your views in a way that passes my questions- that way we can ask sir fazle family if the idea is already near enough for them o pitch to jack ma and he can then pitch it to belt road new development banking and so firth -if yoiu can give her a kimono to model betetr still -it wpuld be best if it had bkash's bird logo flying all over it- i dont want tobe ride to jack ma but i believe birds may work beteter than ants as the number 1 logo of fintech (that will need very slow careful debate - he may be correct maybe ants can anime into something - only youth know whcich they see as sympoloing financial freedom) -people spend hundreds of yeras just on one global logo that's why i dont encourage people to compete at that starting point

WISE@NY will serve as a convening platform for influential local and international thought leaders, decision makers and practitioners from diverse sectors to share best practices in education and reimagine learning environments.

Through a mix of plenaries and innovative and interactive sessions, WISE@NY will address the role of learning environments in creating an inclusive and equitable future. Participants will have the opportunity to explore important questions such as: How can we design effective and inclusive learning systems? How can we leverage multi-stakeholder partnerships to achieve these outcomes?

Japanese Leadership Strengthening The Global Economy

Finance Minister Taro Aso joined his counterparts from around the world in Washington, DC recently as they converged for the IMF and World Bank Spring Meetings. During these sessions, the Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors from G20 Nations held meetings where Minister Aso discussed the risks facing the global economy, particularly from inward-looking policies. He remarked that “it is important to strengthen global growth through free and fair trade.”

Minister Aso also participated in discussions about the “Future of Work,” a term referring to the challenges facing workers as technology changes labor markets rapidly and unpredictably. He emphasized Japan’s view that education at various levels is key to enhancing the resiliency of affected workforces.

Taobao, China’s largest online marketplace, on Wednesday said the upcoming Taobao Maker Festival will be the biggest yet, spotlighting hundreds of young entrepreneurs on the platform.

Slated for Sept. 13-16 in Hangzhou, organizers will draw inspiration from the city’s rich heritage and folklore to put a new spin on ancient Chinese culture from visual design to its selection of exhibitors, Taobao said in a statement. The exact location was not announced, but Alibaba officials said it would take place near the city’s historic West Lake. 

Some of the millennial merchants showcasing products at the four-day event include anime model maker Infinity Studio and AstroReality, the creator of 3D printed moons that users can explore through an augmented-reality app.

“The Taobao Maker Festival has become not only an iconic [platform] for demonstrating creativity, but also a top destination for the world to better understand China’s younger generation,” Taobao said.

The festival, now in its third year, is also used to highlight the latest technologies and products from Alibaba. Taobao last July showcased its cashier-less, queue-free coffee shop, the Tao Café. Some of the technologies from the café, including facial recognition and radio-frequency identification, have recently been applied to the new grab-and-go shop at Alibaba headquarters.

In September, the venue will feature a 300-square-meter “futuristic shopping area” powered by AR, where thousands of visitors will be given headsets that allow them to see brand information, reimagined in-store decor and animated virtual companions as they shop.The Taobao Maker Festival will also host a runway show for indie designers selling on the platform. The event is part Taobao’s push to be a top destination for millennial consumers, who are increasingly showing an appetite for cool and off-beat brands.

“[It is said that] if you want to see beauty and splendor of China, go to the West Lake. Today, [we hope] when people look for creativity in China, they go to Taobao,” the company said.

=======================indy designers

Taobao, China’s leading e-commerce platform, will step up support for cool and unique stores as a way to tap demand among China’s young middle-class consumers, who are increasingly showing an appetite for the different and off-beat.

During its annual Taobao Merchants Summit in Hangzhou on Thursday, the Alibaba Group-owned platform laid out additional plans to strengthen its position as a top destination for millennial consumers whose purchasing power and willingness to spend exceeds that of previous generations.

Chief among those plans: Increase the number of these hip, independent storefronts to 500,000 from the 100,000 currently on the platform, incentivize and help merchants to scale their Taobao businesses and foster an environment that encourages creativity.

Merchants listening to Taobao’s latest strategy announcements at the Summit.

“Taobao is undergoing a major change, and [its user base] is getting younger and younger… This means the platform needs to become ‘younger’ as well, to serve the next generation of merchants and buyers,” Alibaba Group CEO Daniel Zhang said during his keynote speech at the summit.

“The key to ensuring Taobao’s vibrancy and sustainability is continuing to generate new, cutting-edge ideas and reducing the barriers for innovation,” he said.

On average, 480,000 Chinese consumers purchased items, such as apparel, furniture and jewelry, from an independent designer each day in 2017, according to a report by Taobao and CBNData released earlier this month. As further proof of the rise of indie brands, the keyword “original design” was searched more than 170 million times on Taobao in the fourth quarter alone.

The new focus on these merchants was part of a larger strategy outlined by Taobao President Jiang Fan to make the platform more inclusive and a home for creativity.

“If I had to do one thing this year, that would be to make Taobao simpler, and bring [us] back to our original purpose,” Jiang said. Alibaba is famously known by its motto, “To make it easy to do business anywhere.”

Taobao, then, would work to make it easier for these merchants to sell on the platform. To that end, merchants will able to tap into a range of Taobao’s promotional events, content-marketing resources and consumer analytics to better target their customers. In addition, they will benefit from Taobao’s goal to grow sales for 2,000 designated categories, including plus-sized fashion, children’s furniture, handicrafts and athletic gear, which overlaps with this particular group of merchants.

Handbag maker Kitayama Studio, popular among China’s young and edgy consumers, was one of the indie brands featured at the conference.

Taobao also said it would help grow consumer loyalty to these merchants through targeted membership strategies, though details of the strategies were not announced. Improvements will be made to the platform’s community-management tools as well, such as the instant messaging feature Taobao Groups, which allows merchants to chat with consumers, get real-time feedback, build relationships with their top customers and sell their products within the groups.

“We want each and every merchant to be able to put more energy into product development, into serving their customers. And help them unleash creativity and innovation,” Jiang said.
