What does the future of higher education look like? A panel of five university and college presidents offered their crystal-ball visions in a recent session during the recent ASU+GSV Summit, which took place online this week. Moderator Michelle Marx, chancellor of the University of Colorado Denver, asked panelists — each representing a unique higher education model — to look forward five years and beyond.

‘Amazon Rooms’ Are Your Post-Pandemic Future

Posted on / by [email protected]_84 /

The novel coronavirus pandemic has forced significant changes on how we live, how we shop and now it seems it could impact how we build houses. The home of the future might be built with e-commerce in mind, and the trend already appears to have started — at least in Hollywood.

Wealthy, single-family home buyers have begun adding rooms in their homes built specifically for the drop-off and storage of Amazon
AMZN
 packages so that they can be decontaminated before brought into the house, according to what one real estate brokerage CEO told Hollywood Reporter. Packages delivered to single-family homes tend to be left on the porch or near the mailbox, which can lead to theft. This new amenity, dubbed an “Amazon Room,” has an analog in the mail receiving rooms in many large, high-end multi-tenant buildings.

Square is positioned to be a winner by helping small businesses digitize post-pandemic: Oppenheimer

Posted on / by [email protected]_84 /

Square shares are up 146% in 2020 so far, and analysts at Oppenheimer think the stock can still go higher.

On Thursday, Oppenheimer upgraded Square (SQ) to outperform, with a price target of $185. (The all-time high was $166 on Sept. 1; shares were trading at around $152 on Thursday afternoon.) The upgrade is based on the growth of Square’s Cash App, and on the company’s opportunity to help merchants transition to e-commerce.

But really, the note is a post-pandemic vote of confidence.

As Oppenheimer writes, the COVID-19 pandemic has initiated a “massive shift in digital commerce, requiring merchants to rapidly adopt omni-channel solutions.” Of course, it was already obvious before the pandemic that the retail landscape was barreling toward e-commerce, but the pandemic has sent the trend into hyperdrive. Walmart, Target, and Best Buy reported enormous surges (100%+) in digital sales in Q2; online-only retailers Etsy and Wayfair blew
