Business Jargons
A Business Encyclopedia
Presentation
Definition : A presentation is a form of communication in which the speaker conveys information to the audience. In an organization presentations are used in various scenarios like talking to a group, addressing a meeting, demonstrating or introducing a new product, or briefing a team. It involves presenting a particular subject or issue or new ideas/thoughts to a group of people.
It is considered as the most effective form of communication because of two main reasons:
- Use of non-verbal cues.
- Facilitates instant feedback.
Business Presentations are a tool to influence people toward an intended thought or action.
Parts of Presentation
- Introduction : It is meant to make the listeners ready to receive the message and draw their interest. For that, the speaker can narrate some story or a humorous piece of joke, an interesting fact, a question, stating a problem, and so forth. They can also use some surprising statistics.
- Body : It is the essence of the presentation. It requires the sequencing of facts in a logical order. This is the part where the speaker explains the topic and relevant information. It has to be critically arranged, as the audience must be able to grasp what the speaker presents.
- Conclusion : It needs to be short and precise. It should sum up or outline the key points that you have presented. It could also contain what the audience should have gained out of the presentation.
Purpose of Presentation
- To inform : Organizations can use presentations to inform the audience about new schemes, products or proposals. The aim is to inform the new entrant about the policies and procedures of the organization.
- To persuade : Presentations are also given to persuade the audience to take the intended action.
- To build goodwill : They can also help in building a good reputation
Factors Affecting Presentation
Audience Analysis
Communication environment, personal appearance, use of visuals, opening and closing presentation, organization of presentation, language and words, voice quality, body language, answering questions, a word from business jargons.
Presentation is a mode of conveying information to a selected group of people live. An ideal presentation is one that identifies and matches the needs, interests and understanding level of the audience. It also represents the facts, and figures in the form of tables, charts, and graphs and uses multiple colours.

Noun Phrases 2 - Peer Teaching
Working with a partner, pupils made brief notes on Noun Phrases in part 1. The same pair should now be ready to make a presentation on this topic to another pair. In return this other pair will also make a presentation (on the same topic) back to them. In this process, all four pupils experience peer teaching and being peer taught thereby creating four “experts”. There is a suggested page of notes included in this part for pupils to check their own notes against before they peer teach this topic to each other.
These four experts then combine the best bits of both of their presentations to create a short video about Noun Phrases. This video will form part of a library of grammar topics to be shared among the class.

Global Semiconductor Manufacturing Industry Poised for 2024 Recovery, SEMI Reports
MILPITAS, Calif. – February 14, 2024 – The global semiconductor manufacturing industry recovery is taking hold with electronics and IC sales increasing in the final quarter of 2023 and more growth projected for 2024, SEMI announced today in its fourth quarter 2023 publication of the Semiconductor Manufacturing Monitor (SMM) report , prepared in partnership with TechInsights .
In Q4 2023, electronics sales edged up 1% Year-over-Year (YoY), marking the first annual rise since the second half of 2022, and growth is projected to continue in Q1 2024 with a 3% YoY increase. At the same time, IC sales returned to growth with a 10% YoY jump in Q4 2023 as demand improved and inventories started to normalize. IC sales are forecast to strengthen in Q1 2024 with 18% YoY growth.
Capital expenditures and fab utilization rates are expected to see a mild recovery starting in Q1 2024 after significant declines in the second half of 2023.
In Q1 2024, Memory CapEx is projected to increase 9% Quarter-on-Quarter (QoQ) and 10% YoY, while Non-Memory CapEx is on track to climb 16% during the quarter but remain at lower levels than recorded in Q1 2023. Fab utilization rates saw a modest improvement from 66% in Q4 2023 to 70% in Q1 2024. Meanwhile, fab capacity grew 1.3% in Q4 2023 and is projected to match those gains in Q1 2024.
Equipment billings in 2023 surpassed projections though growth is expected to be muted in the first half of 2024 mostly due to seasonality.
“The electronics and IC markets are recovering from a slump in 2023 with growth expected this year,” said Clark Tseng, Senior Director of Market Intelligence at SEMI. “Although fab utilization remains low at the moment, improvement as 2024 unfolds is anticipated.”
“Semiconductor demand is well on its way in the recovery,” said Boris Metodiev, Director of Market Analysis at TechInsights. “While the overall IC market is growing this year, slowing automotive and industrial markets are hampering the analog expansion. AI will be a huge catalyst for leading-edge semiconductors as the technology proliferates from the cloud to the edge. At the same time, geopolitics is driving excess capacity at the trailing edge.”
