This in-depth study explores: why Nairobi has developed into a renowned FinTech hub; what the barriers are to further growth for FinTech companies; and how FinTech is perceived to be contributing to the broadening of Financial Inclusion. Our findings our that Nairobi has emerged as a Financial Technology (FinTech) hub due to the pioneering success of M-Pesa, the inadequacy of incumbent financial

Automation is one of the key topics of the 21st century with many workers concerned about their jobs being replaced by machines. This has led to an ongoing debate to determine to what degree automation is occurring, and which occupations are going to be affected by it. This paper attempts to take a different approach which differs from mainstream authors by focusing on the tasks that each occupati

The aim with this research is to contribute to a holistic understanding of employer branding as a co-created process between the employer and the employees. This is done via capturing employees’ stories about an attractive employer. Theories of culture, sensemaking and storytelling are used as a theoretical starting point. A qualitative approach is chosen for gathering empirical data from intervie

In a conventional prostate cancer radiotherapy treatment workflow, computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are used for radiotherapy treatment planning and target delineation. MRI is necessary in the process due to better soft tissue contrast compared to CT-images. Using two different imaging modalities in radiotherapy treatment planning requires image registration, which cou

Kritik har riktats mot bedömningarna av svenska asylärenden grundade på sexuell läggning. Kritiken mot bedömningarna i dessa mål riktar sig främst mot att bevisvärderingen verkar grundas på subjektiva eller fördomsfulla antaganden, och avsaknaden av legitima bedömningsgrunder för att avgöra trovärdighet och tillförlitlighet i de muntliga utsagorna. Syftet med denna uppsats är därför att utifrån etThe assessments of Swedish asylum cases based on sexual orientation has been criticized. The criticism of the assessments in these cases primarily regards the fact that the evaluation of evidence appears to be based on subjective or prejudicial assumptions, and also the lack of legitimate grounds for determining credibility and reliability in the oral statements.

The European Commission has listened to the critique and committed itself to reorient the European integration project towards a ‘Social Europe’. The addition of social provisions to primary law through the Treaty of Lisbon, a promised re

Det finns flera underrättelseplikter av olika karaktär i AB 04. Ett exempel är beställarens reklamationsplikt vid fel i entreprenad i 5 kap. 15 § AB 04. Av bestämmelsen framgår när och hur reklamation ska ske, samt vad som följer av en sen eller utebliven reklamation. I många fall ska dock en underrättelse ske även utan att underrättelsen föregåtts av ett kontraktsbrott. Syftet med föreliggande upIn AB 04 there are several duties of notification of different character. One example is the contractee’s duty to file a notice of claim in accordance to 5 kap. 15 § AB 04 when the construction has gone wrong. The provision states how a notice of claim should be filed, and what happens if it’s late or if it hasn’t been filed at all. In many cases, however, a notification should be sent even withou

Det EU-rättsliga samarbetet bygger på en väl fungerande inre marknad. Härvid spelar den konkurrensrättsliga regleringen en betydande roll. Frågan om immaterialrättens förhållande till konkurrensrätten har länge varit omdebatterad. Dagens rättsläge utgår från att de båda regleringarna kompletterar varandra och verkar för ett gemensamt mål. Detta gemensamma mål består i att främja konkurrensen på maThe legal framework of the European Union is based on a well-functioning single market. In this respect, competition law plays a significant role. Competition law vis-à-vis Intellectual property law has long been highly debated and the prevailing view is that the two areas of law have a common goal and complement one another. The common goal is to promote competition in the single market, while at

Uppsatsen syftar till att utreda hur idrottsvåld, alltså våld som sker mellan idrottsutövare under pågående organiserad idrottsutövning, behandlas i det svenska straffrättssystemet och om denna behandling skiljer sig från den för annat våld. Uppsatsen tar sin utgångspunkt i idrottsrörelsen och dess önskan om självbestämmande i idrottsliga frågor. Från idrottsrörelsens sida finns en vilja om att idThis essay aims to examine how sports violence, in other words violence between athletes during organized sports practice, is treated in the Swedish criminal justice system and if this treatment differs from that of other acts of violence. The essay is based on the sports movement and its desire for self- determination in sport issues. From the sports movement there is a wish that acts of sports v

I och med idrottens kommersialisering skapades nya behov och därmed möjlighet för nya aktörer att ta plats på den idrottsliga arenan. En av dessa var spelaragenten, som idag förekommer inom i stort sett alla kommersialiserade idrotter. Inom fotbollen skedde kommersialiseringen framförallt under 90-talet, där den nya mängden pengar och intressen i branschen, i kombination med den omvälvande BosmandWith the commercialization of sport, new needs were created, thus allowing new participants to take part in the sports arena. One of these was the player agent, which today occurs in virtually all commercialized sports. The commercialization within football occurred mainly during the 1990s, where an increased amount of money and interests, in combination with the revolutionary Bosman ruling 1995,

Organiserad brottslighet är ett problem som på senare år tilltagit i Sverige, och detta har redan återspeglats i lagändringar. Vid hanteringen av denna typ av brottslighet ställs vissa straffrättsliga frågor på sin spets, och det finns anledning att fråga sig i vilken mån en ledare i ett välorganiserat kriminellt gäng kan hållas ansvarig för gärningar utförda av hans undersåtar. Särskilt intressanOrganised crime is a problem on the uprise in Sweden, a fact that has already been reflected in steps taken by the Swedish legislator to combat the problem. When dealing with this type of criminality certain fundamental questions regarding criminal law arise. To what degree is it reasonable to hold the leader of a well organized criminal gang as primarily responsible for crimes committed by his su

This essay presents the allocation of responsibility between the region and the state, as a case study of the transport infrastructure planning in the Greater Copenhagen cr

Single nanowire transistors employing three separately controlled electrostatic gates were fabricated to investigate band gap modulation in InAs-GaSb heterostructures. The aim is to show hybridization between electron and hole states over the heterojunction. Electric and thermoelectric characterization at low temperatures suggests that transport can be tuned from electrons in InAs to holes GaSb an

This essay will illustrate the tensions in a city center containing large areas of cultural heritage environment and an ambition to exploit the land by reconstruction or densifying. This tension will be highlighted through a case study on the city of Lund. Lund city center contains large areas of cultural environment and the municipality of Lund wants to develop the city through densifying in area

Studien syftade till att undersöka vad som motiverar ledare att arbeta ideellt i en idrottsförening. Utöver den övergripande frågan studerades även om vissa skillnader ledarna emellan, exempelvis ålder, kön, erfarenhet, roll och eget barn i verksamheten, hade någon inverkan på hur de skattade sin motivation. Till studien rekryterades 207 ungdomsledare i fotboll som vid aktuell tidpunkt var involve
