Part 2

The Couple

 April 3rd, 2033

“Such a beautiful building” Amanda said, turning to her husband, Mark.

“It is – but we are late honey, we really should get inside!”, he replied.

FutureCraft was plastered on the side of the building. The architecture of it truly was beautiful – curved, entirely glass and it stood out from all the other buildings in the city. Passers-by would always stop to look at it, even if they saw it regularly on their daily commute.

They stepped into reception, where an automated kiosk greeted them.

“Please scan fingerprint” the machine prompted them.

Mark placed his finger in the area marked and the machine pulled up their appointment. Mark pushed “YES” to indicate they had arrived, and they took a seat.

“Are you excited? We’re really hoping this works” a couple next to them asked.

“We are – we really hope this is the one.” Amanda replied, squeezing her husband's hand. They looked at each other and smiled. They wanted this to work. With all that they were.

“Mr and Mrs Juniper?” a doctor asked, stepping out from his office. 

Amanda and Mark stood up. “Yes, that’s us.” They responded and walked towards the door. As they proceeded towards the office, the couple behind them shouted.

“Good luck!”

The Doctor took a seat behind a large desk, the city as a backdrop behind him, the view truly breathtaking, tall skyscrapers covering the view out to the horizon, reflections in the windows like starlight.

“Welcome to FutureCraft. I will be personally overseeing your treatment and will guarantee, as far as I can, your health will be my highest priority.

Amanda and Mark turned to face each other and smile. Amandas shoulders dropped as she relaxed a little.

“Just to outline the procedure,” the doctor added, “you will stay in a ward overnight, while we conduct a blood test to ensure you are given the right mix of treatments to enable you to get the fullest effect. Now, we have a simple contract for you to sign, most notably is the insurance portion. Be sure your details are correct, and you read it fully.”

As Mark looked down at the document, he read,

—

FutureCraft is the leading specialist in fertility treatments and will guarantee to be at the cutting edge of every treatment you receive. This agreement is a binding contract between you and FutureCraft and through this, we expect your complete honesty and compliance with all procedures throughout, with the trust that the specialists who work here are highly trained and leaders in their fields.

—

Below this was insurance details, bank details, boxes for signatures – Mark counted 19 of them, medical details and finally, before the final signature, a line that read:

—

In the very unlikely chance that you become severely ill during this procedure, you understand that whilst we cannot directly support you, your partner will be supported.

—

He signed this final box, sighed and passed the form back to the Doctor.

The Doctor grabbed the form from the desk, spinning it to face him while he entered the information into his terminal. A few questionings looks by the Doctor at his screen were dismissed as unimportant as he finished typing and looked back at them.

“Wonderful. The $20,000 will be removed from your account within 3 days. Thank you for deciding to take treatment from FutureCraft. Mrs Juniper,” he said as he faced her, “please deal with final matters with your husband before he heads to our ward. He will be required there in 30 minutes time, where his first blood test will be taken. Mr Juniper,” he turned to face Mark, “you will be away from your wife for 3 days. I hope you are aware of this?”

They both looked at each other, smiled, Amanda more nervously than Mark, before both turning to face him again.

“Yes” he said.

“Wonderful” the Doctor replied and opened the door to show them towards the ward area.

They walked together through the ward, men in their beds, their partners beside them, chatting away. Other nurses made themselves busy checking charts and administering treatments. From a career spent in Military Service, and the vaccinations he would regularly be required to take, he was not fazed by injections. He saw this as a necessity to get the treatment he needed.

The Doctor stopped by a bed, picked up a chart and turned to face the couple.

“Here we are. The nurse will be here in 30 minutes to begin. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask for me, or ask a nurse.”

“Thank you” Mark replied, and the Doctor headed back towards his office.

“You’ll be fine” Amanda said.

“I know I will honey, but will you? All by yourself?” he replied.

She looked at him sternly but playfully. “Oh, I’m sure I can survive without your snoring, shoes left lying out and remotes down the side of the couch.”

He returned her playful look, and laughed, before kissing her.

“I love you,” he said, “and I’m so glad we’re doing this. I will contact you as often as I can, okay?”

Her playful look faded, but she softly smiled. “I know, I love you too – and I can’t wait for it to be done so we can finally try!”

They kissed again, before he got changed into his robe as a nurse collected his clothes and belongings, before he said goodbye to his wife, and sat in bed, busying himself reading a book – ‘A Future Lost’ – a science fiction novel he was re-reading again having not read it for years since.

A nurse approached, smiling at him and holding a syringe. “I’m sorry, I need to prep you, is that okay?” she said.

He looked up at her, and smiled back, closing his book. “That’s fine, of course” he replied.

The nurse placed her syringe on the table beside him and wrapped a strap around his arm.

“How are you with needles?” The nurse asked, as she tapped his arm, looking for the vein.

“Fine, don’t worry. I won’t fall asleep on you!” he replied, and she smiled back at him. He felt a sharp pinch on his inner arm as the needle went in and started to draw blood.

“I’m sorry we have to take so much” the nurse added, “we need to be sure to get the right dosage balance. Be sure to rest after this.”

The nurse finished taking the blood, checked its colour before placing it in a box and shifting his pillow slightly so he was more comfortable. 

“The buzzer is here if you need something” she said, pointing to a box with a red button on it beside his bed.

She headed off down the hall and he lay back, feeling a little woozy and let his eyes shut slowly, as sleep took him.

ADIDAS Products, History, Facts, FAQ & Current Situation in 2023

Adidas: A Look at the Brand's Current Situation in 2023 Adidas, the iconic sportswear giant, has been a mainstay in the athletic apparel world for over 70 years. But like any major brand, it faces its own set of challenges and opportunities in the ever-evolving landscape of the industry. Financial Performance: On the financial front, Adidas has seen mixed results in recent years. In 2022, the company's revenue grew by 15% to €23.5 billion, driven by strong sales in North America and Asia. However, its operating profit margin declined from 8.9% to 7.3%, partly due to rising input costs and supply chain disruptions. Market Share and Competition: In terms of market share, Adidas remains the second-largest sportswear manufacturer globally, trailing behind its main competitor, Nike. However, the gap between the two brands is narrowing, with Nike holding a 28.7% share compared to Adidas' 25.4% as of 2023. Brand Perception and Marketing: Adidas has long been known for its innovative designs and athlete collaborations. However, some recent brand missteps, such as the Yeezy controversy, have tarnished its image to some extent. The company is working to rebuild trust and connect with consumers on a deeper level through its "Impossible is Nothing" campaign, which focuses on stories of everyday athletes overcoming challenges. Sustainability Efforts: Adidas is also making strides in sustainability, with ambitious goals to reduce its carbon footprint and use more recycled materials in its products. The company has launched several initiatives, such as the Parley for the Oceans partnership, which upcycles plastic waste from the ocean into sportswear. Challenges and Opportunities: Looking ahead, Adidas faces several challenges. The ongoing economic slowdown could dampen consumer spending, and the company needs to stay ahead of the curve in terms of innovation and sustainability. However, Adidas also has several opportunities for growth. The increasing popularity of athleisure and the continued rise of e-commerce bode well for the brand. Additionally, its strong presence in emerging markets like China and India offers significant potential. Overall, Adidas remains a strong brand with a rich history and a loyal following. However, the company needs to adapt and evolve to stay competitive in the ever-changing sportswear market. By focusing on innovation, sustainability, and connecting with consumers on an emotional level, Adidas can continue to be a dominant force in the world of athletic apparel. Here are some additional points to consider: - Adidas' focus on digitalization and e-commerce is crucial for its future success. - The company's commitment to diversity and inclusion is resonating with consumers, particularly younger generations. - Adidas' partnerships with celebrities and athletes like Beyoncé and Lionel Messi continue to generate buzz and brand awareness.

This evolution is a testament to Adidas' commitment to innovation, quality, and a relentless pursuit of excellence. The Genesis of Adidas: A Humble Start Adidas's journey began in 1924 when German shoemaker Adolf Dassler joined forces with his brother Rudolf to create athletic footwear. The brothers' first breakthrough came in the 1936 Olympics when they provided track spikes for American sprinter Jesse Owens, catapulting their brand onto the international stage. The Three Stripes: A Symbol of Excellence The introduction of the iconic three-stripes logo in 1949 marked a turning point for Adidas. Symbolizing both performance and design, the logo became synonymous with the brand's commitment to quality and innovation. This distinctive emblem adorned the footwear of athletes worldwide, solidifying Adidas as a symbol of athletic prowess. Innovations That Transformed the Game Adidas has consistently pushed the boundaries of sportswear through groundbreaking innovations. From the introduction of the first screw-in studs in 1954 to the development of the Boost cushioning technology in 2013, the brand has consistently prioritized performance, comfort, and style.

The Three Stripes Phenomenon: Unraveling the Iconic Adidas Logo

In the world of sportswear, few symbols are as instantly recognizable as the three parallel stripes that adorn Adidas products. Far more than a mere design element, the iconic three-stripes logo has transcended its visual identity to become a powerful emblem of athleticism, style, and a legacy that spans generations. A Visual Legacy: The Birth of the Three Stripes The genesis of the three-stripes logo can be traced back to 1949 when Adidas founder, Adolf Dassler, conceptualized a motif that would encapsulate the brand's commitment to performance and excellence. The result was a simple yet powerful design – three diagonal stripes that would forever alter the landscape of sportswear branding. Symbolism Beyond Aesthetics Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the three-stripes logo holds profound symbolic significance. Each stripe represents Dassler's vision for the brand: to provide footwear that enhances an athlete's performance in three key aspects—flexibility, durability, and support. The logo became a visual testament to Adidas's unwavering dedication to helping athletes achieve their best on the field. The Evolution of Endurance As Adidas grew in stature, so did the endurance of the three-stripes logo. Its enduring appeal can be attributed to its adaptability – seamlessly transitioning from the tracks to the streets. The logo not only signifies athletic prowess but also embodies a lifestyle, making Adidas a symbol of sporty elegance in the world of fashion. Cultural Integration: From Athletes to Icons The three-stripes logo became a staple on the uniforms of renowned athletes, from soccer fields to basketball courts. However, its influence transcended sports, infiltrating popular culture and making its mark on the music scene, notably in the hip-hop culture of the '80s and '90s. Adidas became not just a sports brand but a cultural phenomenon. Global Recognition: Three Stripes, One World One of the remarkable achievements of the three-stripes logo is its global recognition. Regardless of language or location, the logo serves as a universal symbol of quality and authenticity. It has successfully bridged cultural gaps, creating a sense of unity among athletes, fashion enthusiasts, and trendsetters worldwide. Innovation and Versatility: Adapting to the Times Adidas has skillfully integrated the three-stripes logo into diverse product lines, showcasing its versatility. From classic sneakers to modern athleisure wear, the logo remains a constant thread connecting Adidas's rich heritage with contemporary fashion trends. The brand's ability to innovate while preserving the integrity of its iconic symbol has been key to its enduring success. The Future of Three Stripes: A Symbol for Generations to Come As Adidas forges ahead into the future, the three-stripes logo remains an integral part of its identity. Its timeless design and symbolic resonance ensure that it will continue to be a beacon for athletes, fashion enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a connection to a legacy of excellence. The three-stripes phenomenon is not just a logo; it's a symbol that encapsulates the spirit of Adidas, transcending time and leaving an indelible mark on the world of sportswear.

Adidas and Sustainability: A Trailblazer in Green Practices

In an era where environmental consciousness is paramount, sportswear giant Adidas has emerged as a trailblazer, championing sustainability in every facet of its operations. From the sourcing of eco-friendly materials to the implementation of environmentally conscious manufacturing processes, Adidas is not merely responding to the call for sustainability but leading the charge in reshaping the future of the sportswear industry. A Green Foundation: Sourcing Eco-Friendly Materials At the heart of Adidas' sustainability initiatives is a commitment to sourcing materials that minimize environmental impact. The brand has embraced recycled polyester, organic cotton, and other eco-friendly alternatives in its products. By reducing reliance on traditional raw materials, Adidas is actively contributing to the conservation of natural resources and mitigating the environmental footprint of its supply chain. Parley for the Oceans: Turning Ocean Plastic into Performance Wear Adidas has taken a pioneering step with its collaboration with Parley for the Oceans, an initiative dedicated to addressing the issue of marine plastic pollution. This partnership has resulted in the creation of high-performance sportswear, including iconic footwear, made from recycled ocean plastic. Adidas is not only recycling waste but transforming it into products that exemplify the brand's dedication to both performance and the planet. Circular Design: Extending Product Lifecycles Adidas is committed to breaking away from the linear model of "take, make, dispose" by adopting a circular design approach. This involves creating products with longevity in mind, using materials that can be easily recycled or repurposed. Initiatives like the "End Plastic Waste" campaign further demonstrate Adidas' commitment to closing the loop on plastic waste by investing in recycling infrastructure and community-based projects. Environmental Stewardship: Carbon-Neutral and Beyond Adidas has set ambitious targets to reduce its carbon footprint significantly. The brand is actively investing in renewable energy sources, implementing energy-efficient practices, and even exploring carbon capture technologies. By 2021, Adidas achieved its goal of becoming carbon-neutral in its own operations, setting a precedent for sustainability in the sportswear industry. Transparent Supply Chain: From Source to Shelf In an industry known for complex and often opaque supply chains, Adidas is fostering transparency. The brand is providing consumers with detailed information about the origin of materials used in its products, the environmental impact of manufacturing processes, and the conditions of the workforce involved. This transparency empowers consumers to make informed choices and holds Adidas accountable for its sustainability commitments. Empowering the Consumer: Sustainable Choices for All Adidas recognizes the power of consumers in driving positive change. Through initiatives like the "Choose Better" campaign, the brand encourages customers to opt for sustainable choices. By promoting awareness and education, Adidas aims to create a community of conscious consumers who understand the impact of their choices on the planet. The Path Forward: Adidas Leading by Example As Adidas continues to pioneer sustainable practices, it sets a precedent for the entire sportswear industry. The brand's commitment to environmental stewardship extends beyond mere corporate responsibility; it is a strategic investment in a future where performance and sustainability coexist harmoniously. By leading the charge in sustainable practices, Adidas is not only shaping its own legacy but inspiring a generation of environmentally conscious businesses to follow suit. In the world of sportswear, Adidas is not just a trendsetter; it's a trailblazer in green practices.
