Telecom companies offer a variety of services and products to stay relevant in the competing market. However, with the vast bouquet of products/services, it becomes difficult for the customer to choose the best-fit product. The current research analyzed two recommendation frameworks i.e., An Adaptive Cognizance (AC) distance based algorithms (i.e. Cosine, Euclidean and Manhattan) and Bayesian Network (BN). Various experiments were carried out to evaluate the performance of AC and BN by comparing them with the existing recommendation system by the Telecom service provider (ES). Both AC and BN could uplift the revenue and conversion in the short term by more than 15%. Interestingly, top 10 impacting recharge products were found to be low cost and, with less validity, promising the rise in long-term revenue owing to increased daily-engagement with the customers by providing next best offers to the telecom prepaid customer.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) requires organizations to consider the inherent interests of all stakeholders - inclusive of investors, consumers, employees, the community and last but not the least the environment in order to discharge their commercial activities. The implicit idea being the assumption that both sports and corporate influence the social trends from a series of multiple angles. This novel viewpoint inadvertently leads to an examination of the overlaps between the social responsibilities of the sport and corporate worlds. The present conceptual paper explores the role that sport can play as a vehicle for deploying CSR. It is an attempt to explain and explore the social responsibilities existent in sport as well as those found in the corporate world. An overarching opportunity is present at the intersection of these mutual responsibilities in the combination of the financial leverage available to corporations and the distributive/symbolism displayed in sport. The authors point that sport offers a bridge across social and economic gaps, a stimulus to encourage corporate to share a little of their prosperity by providing the youth with a viable but little explored theme of sport as a means to develop their personal skills and simultaneously improve the future prospects in terms of employability.
