Marketing Strategies of Art Trade with a Focus on Contemporary Czech Art Scene
Peško Banzetová, Michaela ; Horáček, Radek (referee) ; Svoboda, František (referee) ; Rais, Karel (advisor)
Contemporary art trade in the Czech Republic has been regarded as a private area accessible only to a few insiders. So far no adequate literature about this field has existed, the marketing strategies used within it were, not only from the outside perspective, quite unclear. This work shows that it is not a secret sphere. On the contrary, it is a part of the market, which has the effect that the more you talk about it openly, the better impact it has on the whole society. The author presents the current situation in this field, its historical context, and openly discusses the long-term marketing strategies of gallerists who work with contemporary artists. On the basis of case studies from abroad she also shows other possible ways how to bring society closer to contemporary art by means of some specific marketing tools.

Company's strategic change due to merger or acquisition
Smolíková, Lenka ; Rais, Karel (advisor)
The dissertation’s subject matter is mergers and acquisitions (“M&A”). The reason standing behind the dissertation is the ever growing number of announced M&A transactions around the world. The research shows why M&A are important for the company management and why managers today see them as one of the greatest challenges. The work includes a chapter dedicated to the history of M&A and its current state, which has been affected by the financial crisis. One of the main objectives of the dissertation is to connect the economic and legal views on M&A. The work confronts theoretical knowledge with actual M&A cases. In order to provide a clearer understanding of M&A, cases of both successful and unsuccessful M&A transactions in various industries are described. The dissertation includes a detailed description of the specific stages in the M&A process. It deals with the preparatory stage, due diligence, implementation, and the subsequent integration of the two and more merged companies. The dissertation also provides evaluation of the individual stages’ importance. Special attention is given to the most frequent problems occurring during the entire M&A process: human resources and the integration process. In addition, the dissertation responds to the changes in economic environment that took place between the economic boom, at the beginning of the millennium, and the recession that commenced in autumn 2008. It also shows possible future developments in M&A. The dissertation was based on a review of the existing secondary sources; on primary research in companies with experience in M&A, and on collaboration with the tutor and other experts in the M&A field. On the grounds of secondary sources review, primary research, and discussions with experts, a guide on how to successfully implement an M&A transaction was prepared. The dissertation is to serve for didactic purposes in educating future managers, as a guide for companies’ management which implement M&A transaction, and should provide a basis for further research and scientific work in the M&A field. The dissertation’s conclusion evaluates hypotheses formulated prior to its elaboration.

Proposal of prediction model sales of selected food commodities
Řešetková, Dagmar ; Dostál, Petr (referee) ; Krčmarský, Miroslav (referee) ; Zelinka, Ivan (referee) ; Rais, Karel (advisor)
The dissertation is generally focused on the use of artificial intelligence tools in practice and with regard to the focus of study in the field of Management and Business Economics at using the tools of artificial intelligence in corporate practice, as a tool for decision support at the operational and tactical level management. In the narrower sense, the task deals with the proposal of the prediction sales model of selected food commodities. The proposed model is designed to serve as a substitute for a human expert in support decision-making process in the purchase of selected commodities, especially when training new staff and extend the currently used methods of managerial decision-making about artificial intelligence tools for company management and existing employees. The aim of this dissertation is the design prediction sales model of selected food commodities (apples and potatoes) for specific wholesale of fruit and vegetable operating in the Czech Republic. To become familiar with the behaviour of selected commodities were used primary and secondary research as well and knowledge gained from Czech and foreign literature sources and research. The resulting predictive model is developed using statistical analysis of time series and the sales prediction proceeds using the tools of artificial intelligence and is modeled by an artificial neural network. The dissertation in the practical part also contains proposals for the use of the prediction model and partial processing procedures for: • practice, • theory, • pedagogical activities.
