Thomas Guerriero, CEO of WMX Group, Inc., (WEX on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange) Says The World Mercantile Exchange Will Meet The Global Demand For Coffee
Thomas Guerriero, the CEO of WMX Group, Inc. (WEX on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange), parent company of The World Mercantile Exchange, sees a growing demand for coffee around the world. Due to this increased demand, prices are at all time highs. The London based International Coffee Organization is quoted by saying "Consumption of coffee is rising, particularly in grower nations and in emerging markets. The demand for coffee beans cannot be met". Thomas Guerriero believes this viewpoint can be challenged by introducing new small to mid sized producers of coffee around the world. Up until now there has been really no way for these farmers to enter into the global trade of coffee.
The World Mercantile Exchange will be the platform for these smaller growers and emerging markets to enter into this market and fulfill this global demand. In the past, coffee prices has increased due to how long it takes for the larger growers to expand their production, climate changes, and an increased demand due to the steady increase in our global population. With three to four years to grow a new coffee tree and the extraordinary demand around the world, if something is not done one can expect coffee prices to soar around the world indefinitely. With new problems there needs to be new answers and The World Mercantile Exchange many feel is the answer.

Mobile Madness! "Cash Glut!" Corum Group to Present November 2011 Tech M&A Monthly Report
Corum Group, the international leader in software and technology merger and acquisition services, is proud to announce its next exclusive monthly web event, Mobile Madness + Cash Glut + Japans Buying! on November 3, 2011, at 1 p.m. EDT. Alan Gould of Westlake Software will join Corum panelists as a guest analyst, reporting on the mobile space. Other guest panelists include Vijay Tella of Qik, which sold to Skype, and Jonas Gyllensvaan of Conceivium, which sold to Fixmo, to discuss the sales of their mobile software companies.
Corums monthly Tech M&A web events always feature the Corum Index, a discussion on current trends and business valuations in the tech M&A sector, with information broken down into 6 market segments and 26 separate sub-categories. This allows executives from every field to see specifically where their company is trending with up-to-the-moment statistics. The Corum Index discussion features Corum's own research team, who measure recent M&A activity against long-term trends, and offer insight on what to expect in coming months.
The web event will end with a Q&A session, including members of the seller's panel, so that attendees can get information directly from the source. Participants are welcome to send in their questions via Webex, as Corum researchers and deal makers will also participate, providing an excellent opportunity for those hesitant about M&A to find out how to get started, and what trends to bet on. Questions that are not answered during the web event will be responded to via personal contact afterward.
This web event will be broadcast live on November 3, 2011, starting at 1 p.m. EST. Participants are encouraged to register early, as space is limited. Two rebroadcasts for European and Asian audiences are scheduled for November 10, at 3:30 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. EST.
Registration for the November Tech M&A Monthly webinar is free of charge, but space is limited. To register, visit https://mergersandacquisitions.webex.com
