Birmingham International Poised to Become Gateway to London

Mon, 06 Sep 2010 23:00:00 -0200

(Reriani Communications) --- Birmingham International Airport chiefs claim that the airport is poised to become “the solution” to London’s capacity problem, after the British government put future expansion of Heathrow and Gatwick on hold. Further investment and planned transport links will see the airport become the number one airport for Aussies looking for cheap flights to London in 2026, according to industry analysts.

“While the planned high-speed rail line will cut the journey between Birmingham International and the centre of London to 38 minutes, passengers will have to wait until 2026 to take advantage of the link,” says Darin Walters, MD of online travel experts Jetabroad. “However, in the interim Virgin Trains are working on reducing the journey into London to 50 minutes, which would put it nearly on par with travel times from Stansted.”

1.8 Million UK Holidaymakers Take Advantage of August Bank Holiday Deals

Mon, 06 Sep 2010 21:00:00 -0200

(Reriani Communications) --- The British Travel Association has revealed statistics on the number of people to have travelled abroad over the August Bank Holiday weekend, with 1.8 million British holidaymakers departing the country, 420,000 from Heathrow alone. Despite the recent collapse of several cut-rate travel firms, numbers remain stable on last year as holidaymakers are still taking advantage of the relative abundance of cheap holidays across the market, with many suppliers cutting prices in reaction to competition from destinations outside the Eurozone.

“Trends haven’t changed much since this time last year, with holidays in Greece, Spain and Turkey remaining the most popular destinations for British travellers,” says Thomas Kempster, Director of holiday experts Packyourbags.com. “While the average price of these destinations has risen based on last year’s numbers, this is due in part to increased growth in the all-inclusive and cruise sectors, in addition to a slight increase in average holiday duration.”

Soap Opera Drives Increase in Arab Holidaymakers Visiting Turkey

Mon, 06 Sep 2010 20:00:00 -0200

(Reriani Communications) --- Turkey is currently seeing an influx of tourists from its Arab neighbours, which industry insiders are putting down to the continuing popularity of imported Turkish soap operas such as Noor, also helped by both Ankara’s recent decision to relax visa requirements for some countries, and the ready availability of cheap Turkey holidays across the Arab market. Compared to 2009, Turkey has seen a 33 percent increase in tourists from Arab countries, with 105,000 visitors arriving in May.

Though the series has since ended, with the finale attracting 85 million viewers across the Arab world, its effects are still being felt across the Turkish tourism industry, with large numbers of visitors avoiding the traditional sights of Istanbul in favour for locations featured in the shows.

Global Neurostimulation Market to Reach $8.8 Billion by 2015, According to New Report by Global Industry Analysts, Inc.

Mon, 06 Sep 2010 19:00:00 -0200

(Reriani Communications) --- Neurostimulation is a promising medical technology that involves transmitting small mild electrical pulses with preset amplitude, frequency, and pulse width to the spinal cord or a peripheral nerve that restrains pain. Neurostimulation market continues to remain under-penetrated, despite the emergence of neurostimulators as effective alternatives to drug therapy in numerous psychiatric and neurological disorders. The relatively slower pace of commercialization is largely attributed to the limited awareness among patients and physicians. Rising consumer awareness, entry of new players into the market, and demographic trends are expected to drive the use of neurostimulation devices in the future. New and technologically advanced neurostimulator product introductions serving varied indications represent another key factor propelling the growth of neurostimulation market. Majority of the neurostimulation technologies are in various stages of clinical evaluation, with commercialization expected to involve a period of two to three years in markets with high potential like the US and Europe.

The United States represents the single largest market for neurostimulation with more than 75% share of global sales, as stated by the new market research report on neurostimulation. Rising demand for faster, effective, low-cost, and safer treatment methods, as against drug-based or surgery-based therapies is driving growth in the neurostimulation devices market. Growth is also anticipated owing to factors such as an aging population, and increase in age-related neurological disorders. The increasing availability of clinical data validating the technology’s efficacy, and growing acceptance among patient and physician community is also fuelling market growth. Deep Brain Stimulators (DBS) are primarily used for controlling movement disorders, such as dystonia, essential tremors, and Parkinson's disease. As the brain is associated with a wide range of disorders, DBS presents potential opportunities for the treatment of movement indications (short-term prospects), and cognitive indicatives (long-term prospects). The US market for deep brain stimulators (DBS) is anticipated to reach US$1.2 billion by 2013.

Branding Expert Kasey Sixt Featured at Upcoming Onrec Recruitment Conference

Mon, 06 Sep 2010 15:00:00 -0200

(Reriani Communications) --- It's clear that social media is here to stay. Most employers agree that participation and monitoring the social media realm is essential to develop a voice and trust with potential candidates. However, many recruiters are stuck with trying to navigate this realm on their own, with no clear direction on how to overcome obstacles or how to utilize social recruiting solutions without letting it overwhelm their workload. Kasey Sixt, Vice President of Branding and Social Media Initiatives at the global recruitment marketing agency, CKR Interactive, will be presenting at this year's Onrec.com Expo to shed some light on the matter.

Sixt's session will provide recruiters with valuable information on how to get started with social recruiting, including how to work with executive management to get their buy in and remove obstacles such as blocked social networking sites, and will break down the common misconceptions in the social recruiting arena. The presentation will share a client's experience in launching their social recruiting and branding efforts, and how they worked with CKR Interactive to build a successful social media marketing program.
