During this Capstone project, the author composed and revised the introductory chapters of the novel Rock 314. This Capstone is comprised of the first four of those chapters and also includes a reflective essay that explores the many influences and inspirations that led to its creation. Rock 314 is a story about a lonely young artist who is unexpectedly taken away from the world he knows and finds himself flung across the cosmos in search of his kidnapped grandfather. This novel uses humor as a literary device to satirize contemporary society. In addition to an explanation of influences and story conception, the essay includes all cognitive decisions and discoveries made by the author throughout the evolution of this project.

The upheavals of the Arab Spring in the southern Mediterranean led to domestic and international demands on the governments in the region to implement reforms aimed at enhancing business and investment conditions especially for micro, small- and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), which carry out an overwhelming majority of the region’s economic activity. A comprehensive survey among some 600 high-growth potential MSMEs in Algeria, Egypt, Morocco and Tunisia identified and ranked the key obstacles impeding their high-growth potential. This Policy Brief summarises the main results and policy recommendations that can be drawn from this survey, which has been analysed in depth by Ayadi & De Groen (2014).
