		<description><![CDATA[Dear Mr. Walker,
On behalf of the Greater Houston Partnership, I thank you for joining our mission to Panama City, Panama in June 2011. We are grateful that you joined us and hope that your experience was productive.
I strongly believe that the expansion of the Panama Canal will significantly enhance our trade ties with Asia. We have returned with a far better understanding of the important opportunities and chllanges ahead of us when the expansion of the Panama Canal is completed in 2014. Thank you for your active involvement and encouragement that helped make this mission a success.
We are committed to helping members like you benefit from our programs. You will hear from us in the near future about possible follow up. Again, thank you for your support.
Best Regards,
Jeff Moseley

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>Houston Texas, October 1<sup>st</sup> 2010 </em></p>
<p>E-ndeavor Program Management, Inc. announces the successful completion of the Panama Canal Competitive Route Choice Analysis Model (PCRCAM) a competitive pricing analysis software model for the Panama Canal Authority with partners, NOVIX, Drewry and Lumina.</p>
<p>E-ndeavor Program Management, Inc. led the formation of the consortium and acted as program manager and communications managers for the project.  Novix, a leader in financial, strategic operations and risk modeling developed the model and performed financial consulting. Partner Drewry Shipping Consultant, Inc. provided U.S. intermodal and maritime transportation expertise and Data for the project.  This web-served Model was built on CubePlan <sup>TM</sup>, the mathematical modeling platform developed by partners Novix and Lumina.</p>
<p>The Panama Canal Authority now has the ability to establish route costing and competitive route analysis as well as competitive pricing analysis.  This effective tool for strategic operations, financial and risk forecasting is a forward-looking solution with a very user-friendly graphical interface with superb calculation power and stability.</p>
<p>This web-based GUI and shared workspace solution facilitates collaboration between risk and business analysts and the C-level decision makers. The model allows importing and exporting data from: flat files, spreadsheets, databases, data cubes, etc. Inputs can be automated from existing transactional systems, as well as critical live market or trend data.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The  world and nearly everything in it is changing, marketplaces are  globalizing while differences are becoming more dynamic. The highly  competitive global village demands firms implement their marketing plans  cross-culturally to win the global competition.  English is the most  used language on the Internet and in Global Marketing with Chinese  second and Spanish third.</p>
<p>Latin American companies wanting to explore the global markets should first invest in an English (USA) <strong>Cross-Cultural Market Plan Development</strong>. To be successful in these marketplaces the managers and marketers must be able to  draw upon resources internationally and cross-culturally to create long  term and sustainable competitive advantages.   Compared with the  traditional marketing strategies, the Internet marketing need to pay  more attention to the cultural differences given the facts that it has  no time and distance constrains.</p>
<p>Consumers  today are more educated and want more information prior to making a  purchasing decision; they increasingly demand 24 hours a day, 7 days a  week sales and service. Because the Internet meets these two basic  criteria of consumer needs, the worldwide market of Internet users is  growing exponentially, faster than any other media. Thus a  cross-cultural Internet Strategy is <strong>crucial </strong>to the marketing plans of these Latin American companies.</p>
<p>To  learn more about how to market your company into the United States,  look for additional articles on this subject in future issues of this  publication.</p>
<p><em>Authors  Brad Walker and Luis Crespo of E-ndeavor Program Management Inc, offer  Cross-Cultural Marketing Service in the United States and throughout  Latin America.   Send inquiries to <a href="mailto:info@e-ndeavor.com" target="_blank">info@e-ndeavor.com</a> or call 832-715-4761</em></p>
