The Helsingborg-based platform connects students with internships.

The findings reveal how sharply these opportunity windows have narrowed. Almost every SME now operates within a 12-month limit, with 97% confirming that opportunities remain viable for no longer than a year. Many face far less breathing room.

In markets where rivals are accelerating their own investment decisions, these shrinking windows are making slow responses far more costly than before.

The 88-year-old Michigan grocery worker was handed an oversized check for $1.7 million Friday, the result of a remarkable fundraising campaign by a young Australian man with an extraordinary following on social media. "No, no," Bambas said, wiping tears and sniffles in front of reporters. "Thank you. Oh, my God." Sam Weidenhofer, 22, is using his powerful platforms to spread kindness - and money - on a visit to the United States. He met Bambas at a Meijer store in Brighton in southeastern Michigan about two weeks ago and recorded a TikTok video for his 7.7 million followers in which the General Motors retiree explained why he's still working as he approaches 90, following the death of his wife, Joan, after a chronic illness in 2018.

Your tax-deductible donations have been so helpful over the years as Streetsblog provides the megaphone for the livable streets movement, which seeks to make our city better by reducing car use, boosting sustainable transport and reclaiming public space for public good. And busting drivers who park illegally with city-issued (or flat-out fake) placards. Speaking of which, this year, your donation comes with the ultimate city perk: an official-looking, yet completely fake, Streetsblog parking placard.

Through solidarity, creativity and collective fundraising, we can fight back against the politics of fear and exclusion and build a world where everyone can thrive.

With the opening of the new Campbell Library pushed out until next winter, the Friends of the Campbell Library have more time to fundraise.

To achieve this, the Friends of the Campbell Library has an ongoing Love Our Library campaign, with a goal of raising $250,000.

When we ask readers what they would change about Streetsblog San Francisco, the top result is always the same: they'd like to see more coverage. More coverage of transit agencies and elected boards, more coverage outside of the major Bay Area cities of San Francisco and Oakland, and of course more coverage of their favorite mode of transportation. And we'd love to do all of that, but the reality is it's just not possible to cover everything with one full-time editor.

After receiving treatment at the hospital, the dog was named Ruaidhri. This comes as the animal welfare charity says it is tackling a skyrocketing number of animals being dumped outside. In England and Wales, 24,270 incidents of abandonment were reported marking a 23 per cent increase on last year. To put that into perspective, it means an abandonment incident was reported to the charity's emergency line every nine minutes it was open across the first ten months of this year.
