GRI Club’s recent online meeting “Emerging Markets & Logistics: Finding Opportunities Beyond Frontiers” explored the evolving Light Industrial and Logistics real estate market. Traditionally dominated by American and European giants, this sector is now witnessing a shift with significant opportunities emerging in countries such as India, South Korea, Brazil, and Mexico. 🔹 The discussions highlighted the unique characteristics of logistics sectors in developing regions, emphasising the role of localization in market appeal while exploring key drivers and challenges from both global and local perspectives. Strategic conversations also focused on whether investment trends will remain in traditional markets or shift towards these new frontiers.

It's still sime to register! MPI Online Webinar - How to create a positive impact through sustainable events? April 23, 2024 2:30 PM - 3:15 PM CET How to combine the creation of emotions for events with respect for ressources and social justice ? 🧠 The event is a mirror of the practices of the organization that initiates it. The new project LEAD of Green Evénements, based in Paris, consecrates excellence in results around three key topics: zero waste, zero net carbon and positive social impact. 3 strong commitments, in line with the challenges of each CSR policy! Through its 13 measures, LEAD makes it possible to evaluate (bronze, silver or gold) the direct impact of an event. We all need a demonstration of consistency. When we ask companies committed to producing responsible events about their motivations, the first benefit they tirelessly cite is the positive impact on their teams, on the audiences gathered. Responsible meeting is transformative! Such a project only takes shape thanks to the actors who adopt it. Châteauform' is one of those leaders in the event market that have decided to produce more virtuous events. By offering LEAD to their clients, the organizers of seminars and events, they involve decision-makers and their audiences in a project of co-construction of sustainable excellence. Online session moderated by Véronique Holveck & Attila Laszlo with the participation of 💥 Cristina Vellar 💥 Sales & Customer Relations Director Belgium & Luxembourg and Claire DAGRENAT Engagement Responsable at Châteauform' Let's exchange our best tips and practicies in the field of sustainability.   ✨ This session is complimentary for both members and non-members We've teamed up together with MPI France-Switzerland Chapter to invite you for this online session, registration https://lnkd.in/ek-k9Vb2 #mpi #mpibelgiumluxembourg #onlinesession #sustainability

Sustainability - Reflecting on various topics before the Chinese New Year break... and one of them is how important is sustainability (and closely related ESG) for us now and for future generations. During my term as president of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Singapore and now as Chairman of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Singapore, we organized various events on this topic, emphasizing on awareness and initiatives by Canadian stakeholders. It was wonderful to introduce the Honorable Jeremy Harrison, Minister of Trade and Export Development for the Government of Saskatchewan at the Sustainable Saskatchewan Reception organized in collaboration with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce in Singapore late December. Hosted at the Paradox Singapore Merchant Court, the event commemorated the province's commitment to sustainable development, recognized its expansive economic potential, and emphasized Saskatchewan's global leadership in sustainable agriculture, energy, and natural resources. Key contributors included the Saskatchewan Singapore Office Haut-commissariat du Canada à Singapour | High Commission of Canada in Singapore and esteemed valuable food contributors such as Agrocorp International, HerbYvore , Prairie Berries, and Shandi Global. These partners showcased their amazing products at the event including the Saskatoon Sling! His Excellency, Jean-Dominique Ieraci, High Commissioner of Canada to Singapore & Honorary Chairman of the Canadian Chamber of Commerce emphasized the importance of sustainable initiatives, laying the foundation for Minister Harrison's vision to strengthen ties with Southeast Asia and advance sustainable development efforts. The evening provided attendees with the opportunity to experience and foster collaboration, highlighting Saskatchewan's potential not only regionally but also as a global leader in sustainability. #saskatchewan #sustainabledevelopment #canada #canadabusiness #singaporebusiness #sustainabilityleadership #eventhighlight #saskatoon #collaborationopportunities #greeneconomy #sustainableagriculture #energyleadership #naturalresources #businessinnovation #saskatoonBerry #sustainableproducts #sustainableproducts #environmentalstewardship

Being recognized like this for Sustainability is very important to us.

It's worthwhile to re-share the announcement on this special day of #Riyadh #GREATFUTURES Summit brought by Department for Business and Trade! Currently, European brands account for 72% of the global high-end market, contributing 10% (€210 billion) to Europe's exports and employing 2.1 million people directly and indirectly. Since its creation in 2010, ECCIA has become an authoritative #advocate for the high-end sector in Brussels, protecting the industry on a number of priority issues including Vertical Block Exemption Regulation and establishing the contribution of the sector to the #Europeaneconomy. Over the next two years, Walpole will oversee ECCIA’s work in Brussels on the main #policypriorities: #brandprotection in general and protection of #intellectualproperty in particular; #trade and #tourism; #sustainability and #ESG aligned to the European Green Deal.
