World First

World First is a UK-based foreign exchange company. It offers currency exchange and international payments to private clients, corporate and e-Commerce clients in the UK and a number of other countries.

History

World First was launched to provide a fast, fair and effortless way to help people move money across borders, with the goal of offering people a true alternative to big banks.

World First's story began in 2004 when two friends, Jonathan Quin and Nick Robinson, set up in a basement flat in Stockwell, South London, armed with the experience of 10 years in corporate banking and what Jonathan now calls ‘an entrepreneurial naivety’. Having gone about employing the right people to deliver an outstanding level of customer service, build the fastest, most reliable systems for transfers and ensure the highest levels of transparency, integrity and security, their quiet revolution to offer customers a better alternative to the banks began.

In a little over 10 years, they've grown from that south London basement into a global business with offices in London, Singapore, Hong Kong, Sydney, Washington, and Austin (TX). They've expanded the range of currencies they can support and broadened their licensing footprint meaning they've been able to help tens of thousands of clients around the world.

Red Bull

Red Bull is an energy drink sold by Austrian company Red Bull GmbH, created in 1987. In terms of market share, Red Bull is the highest-selling energy drink in the world, with 5.387 billion cans sold in 2013.

Austrian entrepreneur Dietrich Mateschitz was inspired by an existing energy drink named Krating Daeng, which was first invented and sold in Thailand. He took this idea, modified the ingredients to suit the tastes of Westerners, and, in partnership with Chaleo Yoovidhya, founded Red Bull GmbH in 1987 in Chakkapong, Thailand. In Thai, daeng means red, and krating is the large bovine called "gaur". Red Bull is sold in a tall and slim blue-silver can, while Krating Daeng is in a gold shorter can. The two are different products, produced separately.

The Red Bull company slogan is "Red Bull gives you wings", and the product is marketed through advertising, events (Red Bull Cliff Diving World Series, Red Bull Air Race, Red Bull Crashed Ice), sports team ownerships (RB Leipzig, FC Red Bull Salzburg, Red Bull Brasil, New York Red Bulls, Red Bull Racing, Scuderia Toro Rosso), celebrity endorsements, and music, through its record label Red Bull Records.

An easy-to-understand one-page explanation of rights, with associated visual symbols, explains the specifics of each Creative Commons license. Creative Commons licenses do not replace copyright, but are based upon it. They replace individual negotiations for specific rights between copyright owner (licensor) and licensee, which are necessary under an "all rights reserved" copyright management, with a "some rights reserved" management employing standardized licenses for re-use cases where no commercial compensation is sought by the copyright owner. The result is an agile, low-overhead and low-cost copyright-management regime, profiting both copyright owners and licensees. Wikipedia uses one of these licenses.
