1 HORIZON SCANNING The Investment Litmus Test Air Freight Industries 1

2 An orderly method Here we use the SATERPLIDE acronym to prompt the scan for future events and their consequences. The segments are: Social (See Maslows’s Hierarchy of Human Needs) Approach (First response to an issue) Technology (Applying our innovation to reliable approaches) Economic (The benefits in productivity from technology) Resources (Human and Natural, required and consumed) Political (Ownership rights of tribes to resources) Legal (Administration of political resolutions) International (Resolution of international differences) Demographic (Population shift to better circumstances) Environment (Built by Humans and by Nature, our impact) 2

3 An orderly method Note that there is a series of cause-and- effect relationships going around the circle. This discovery technique ensures thorough scanning in our due diligence process. 3

4 SOCIAL Segment Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs Creativity Respect Acceptance Comfort Survival If your life is at risk, you may compromise on the items above survival A roof over your head Observing local customs What do you know? Problem Solving 4

5 Human Need: Ensuring air cargo is regulated for safety Safety regulation is at many stages 5

6 APPROACH Segment What to do if your human needs are being frustrated? NEEDAPPROACH SurvivalFlee, Fight, ComfortBuild, Adapt AcceptanceJoin, Communicate RespectLearn, Teach CreativityDesign, Invent Design regulations to ensure safety standards 6

7 TECHNOLOGY Segment How to make a successful approach re-useable & reliable? Scientists in North Carolina are pursuing new cargo scanning technology capable of more accurately identifying nuclear- and radiological- weapon ingredients 7

8 ECONOMIC Segment How does the technology improve the quality of life? Safe air freight gets components delivered faster 8

9 RESOURCES Segment What are the human and natural resources required to sustain the economic activity? The industry requires a large and skilled workforce, together with most minerals, many synthetic materials, many from hydrocarbons. Here we show the bauxite deposits in Weipa, North Australia, used for aluminium manufacture. 9

10 POLITICAL Segment Who is responsible for preventing narcotics transport? The military and police play a major part. 10

11 LEGAL Segment How are policies for narcotics smuggling administered? 11

12 INTERNATIONAL Segment How are differences between international systems resolved? Most air cargo is now international 12

13 DEMOGRAPHIC Segment What is the impact of economic success on population mix and location? In the case of China, manufacturing activities of all kinds have resulted in migration towards the east coast. Air freight is becoming increasingly important. 13

14 ENVIRONMENT Segment What is the impact of economic success on the environment, both natural and the built infrastructure? 14
