This lawsuit, the biggest of its kind so far. That was my colleague Michelle Fleury reporting from new york on meta, which reports its results later this week. But a number of other Tech Companies have released their Quarterly Results earlier today. Lets run you through some of them. Googles Parent Company alphabet has reported an 11 Revenue Growth in the quarter ending september. Thats the first time in over a year that the company has posted growth in double digits bolstered mainly by advertising revenue. But its Cloud Business had missed analysts expectations, sending shares down about 6 in after hours trading. Microsofts cloud services, on the other hand, had boosted the company profits. Its revenue grew 13 in thejuly to September Quarter compared to the same period last year. Earlier in october, the Company Completed its purchase of gaming giant Activision Blizzard in a sale worth more than 68 billion. Executives will likely discuss that acquistion and how itll affect the next quarter. Social Media Company snap posted a 5 growth in revenue for the latest quarter, sending shares up by as much as 20 . But thats now dipped a little after the company said it will not provide an official guidance for the last quarter, citing instability in the middle east. Snap said It Saw Pauses in many Advertising Campaigns in the immediate aftermath of the war between israel and hamas. Well, well likely see those bumper Quarterly Earnings from other Tech Companies all through this week. Thats according to sarah kunst, the managing director of Venture Capital firm cleo capital, which invests in early stage businesses. I spoke to her a little earlier. Those numbers are pretty indicative of what we are going to see through the end of this quarter. The interesting thing about dafabet microsof, the numbers that came out the reality is they were not bad. And yet, being a little bit overawed a little bit under. What a likely to see from meta, which reports its number on wednesday . Indie which reports its number on wednesday . Which reports its number on wednesda . ~ , wednesday . We will be looking at the same wednesday . We will be looking at the same things, at the same things, particularly. What happens, you know, for the First Quarter in the middle east, its good to have a huge impact on ad spend. People might be on the platforms more. But i dont know if its good to be great for ever. So i think thats going to be a big part of the story that meta is telling us. One interesting thing is when everyone was talking about al, i dont know if it will feature as predominately this quarter, think it will be about the fundamentals and how people are using their platforms. I doubt we will carefully break out numbers on covered threads of the feels that there has been an uptick in use since then. Numbers on threads. You mentioned ai, what needs to be done in that context to make it a bigger contributor to revenue . I it a bigger contributor to revenue . Revenue . I think these Companies Revenue . I think these companies are revenue . I think these companies are going l revenue . I think these| companies are going to revenue . I think these companies are going to need to find a Business Model for it. Right now you have these companies thatjust dont companies that just dont actually companies thatjust dont actually make a tonne of money from their ai businesses, they like to talk about them, certainly Companies Like microsoft it has been a huge help over the course of this year. Their investment in open ai, the integration of chatgpt to their Search Engine and other products that they have, so i think for microsoft, when you look at the revenue there or not that many users subscribing to chatgpt and the number has trailed off since some of the bigger lodges earlier this year, and of the revenue side in terms it helps Drive Revenue higher. Once that happens i think well hear a lot more about the reality of ai working rather than just the promise. To india now, where it has topped the list of countries where its people are seeking citizenship in wealthy nations. Thats according to a recently released Migration Outlook by the Inter Governmental Organisation oecd. From mumbai, our India Business correspondent Nikhil Inamdar has more details. India replaced china as the main source of new migrants to the oecd block two and 2021 and has since maintained the position. Some many people migrate into these countries, making up for about 7. 5 of the globalflow, thus making up for about 7. 5 of the global flow, thus the data thats available for 2121 and part of 2022. This figure excludes students but indians will also the second largest spool of International Students in oecd countries following china. In fact the number of students from india has doubled since 2014 according to the report. Apart from education, and number of Bilateral Agreements on migration and mobility partnerships have led to this growth. Portugal, germany and australia have recently concluded such agreements with india which has also previously signed with countries like finland, france and the united kingdom. A separate report recently also showed india accounted for a tenth of the total applicants for golden passports, which essentially offer citizenship by investment. Sri lanka has announced visa free entry for International Travellers from seven countries, in a bid to shore up tourism dollars to help its crisis hit economy. The countries include the likes of india and russia both of which are sri lankas biggest sources of tourists. Officials say the project is still in its pilot stage, but will start with immediate effect and continue through to The End Of March Next year. Now, diversity in the workplace is a big issue these days, whether its about gender, ethnicity, or disability. For many companies, its just seen as a progressive policy, the right thing to do. But one campaigner weve been speaking to says it makes business sense too. I meet a lot of people as i go round the Business Community come up with the word founder at the bottom of the e mail, they tend to be people with disabilities, people of colour and other people who have not been given opportunities. By conventional employment. I want to change that. So many empires think that taking on someone with a disability employers, will cost them money in all sorts of ways, adaptive technology, time offset, which will affect the bottom line. It is completely wrong. Take on the right proportion of people with disabilities in your workplace, Attrition Rates will go down so Recruitment Costs will go down, everyone will start taking less time off work, crucially you have then got workforce who understand all of the audience, notjust 80 of it, or if you include the families of disabled people, 50 , the whole of your potential audience, and you will make more money.
