Student’s name Kattalin Azurmendi Company’s name MINI

Mini is a British automotive brand specialized in small cars owned by BMW. Mini originated as one specific vehicle, a small car originally known as the Morris MiniMinor launched by the British Motor Corporation in 1959. The original twodoor Mini continued in production until 2000. Development of a successor began in 1995 and the new generation car was launched in 2001. The Mini Hatch/Hardtop, Clubman and Convertible are assembled at Plant Oxford in Cowley, United Kingdom and the Countryman is assembled by Magna Steyr in Austria.

In 1966 the British Motor Corporation became part of British Motor Holdings and in 1968 British Motor Holdings merged with Leyland Motors to form Leyland Holdings and in 1968 British Motor Holdings merged with Leyland Motors to form British Leyland. The Mini was again marketed under the Austin name in the 1980s.

Mini came about because of a fuel shortage caused by the 1956 Suez Crisis. Petrol was once again rationed in the UK, sales of large cars slumped, the market for German Bubble cars boomed. Leonard Lord, the somewhat autocratic head of BMC, reportedly detested these cars so much that he vowed to rid the streets of them and design a 'proper miniature car´. He laid down some bas ic design requirements: the car should be contained within a box that measured 10 × 4 × 4 an existing unit. Issigonis, who had been working for Alvis, had been recruited back to BMC in 1955 and, with his skills in designing small cars, was a natural for the task.

Student’s name: Nadia Barreiro Company’s name: Coca-Cola

Coca-Cola is a carbonated soft drink sold in the stores, restaurants, and vending machines of more than 200 countries. It is produced by The CocaCola Company of Atlanta (United States). It was invented in the late 19th century by John Pemberton, CocaCola was bought out by businessman Asa Griggs Candler. The company produces concentrate, which is then sold to licensed CocaCola bottlers throughout the world.

In 1892 Candler incorporated a second company, The CocaCola Company, and in 1910 Candler had the earliest records of the company burned, further obscuring its legal origins. By the time of its 50th anniversary, the drink had reached the status of a national icon in the USA.

On April 23, 1985, CocaCola, amid much publicity, attempted to change the formula of the drink with "New Coke". When launched CocaCola's two key ingredients were cocaine and caffeine. The exact formula of CocaCola's natural flavorings is a trade secret.

The famous CocaCola logo was created by John Pemberton's bookkeeper, Frank Mason Robinson, in 1885.

Pepsi is usually second to Coke in sales, but outsells CocaCola in some markets. Around the world, some local brands compete with Coke.

Studies indicate that CocaCola and other soft drinks can be harmful if consumed excessively, particularly to young children.

It comes sixth in our list of the top ten skills that employers want .

It is assessed on application forms and at interview by asking you questions about when you faced up to a challenge or a significant achievement in your life. Sometimes your interests can show evidence of this: mountain climbing , marathon running or major sporting achievements may strongly suggest the drive to succeed, but also learning to play a musical instrument to grade 8 or to reach black belt in a martial art could also be evidence for substantial determination. A vacation sales job in which you substantially exceeded your targets could also be seen as evidence.

Determination is closely associated with resilience: the ability to bounce back from setbacks, rather than giving up. When the going gets tough, the tough get going! Perseverance and persistence are also highly related.
