Product lifecycleIn industry, product lifecycle management (PLM) is the process of managing the entire lifecycle of a product from its inception through the engineering, design and manufacture, as well as the service and disposal of manufactured products. PLM integrates people, data, processes, and business systems and provides a product information backbone for companies and their extended enterprises. The inspiration for the burgeoning business process now known as PLM came from American Motors Corporation (AMC).

History of marketingThe study of the history of marketing, as a discipline, is meaningful because it helps to define the baselines upon which change can be recognised and understand how the discipline evolves in response to those changes. The practice of marketing has been known for millennia, but the term "marketing" used to describe commercial activities assisting the buying and selling of products or services came into popular use in the late nineteenth century. The study of the history of marketing as an academic field emerged in the early twentieth century.
BusinessBusiness is the practice of making one's living or making money by producing or buying and selling products (such as goods and services). It is also "any activity or enterprise entered into for profit." Having a business name does not separate the business entity from the owner, which means that the owner of the business is responsible and liable for debts incurred by the business. If the business acquires debts, the creditors can go after the owner's personal possessions.
Modèle d'entrepriseLe modèle d'entreprise, en anglais business model, est la représentation systémique et synthétique de l'origine de la valeur ajoutée d'une entreprise et de son partage de la valeur ajoutée entre les différentes parties prenantes, sur une période et pour un domaine d'activité clairement identifiés. Le modèle d'entreprise est donc un document de référence qui présente la manière dont une entreprise entend fonder et garantir sa rentabilité. À ce titre il est révélateur de la capacité de l'équipe dirigeante de l'entreprise à définir des objectifs et à produire des résultats.
