The Demand is growing for High-Quality Content and New User Experiences, with some Specific Trends in the Society and Businesses: Media Convergence, Social Media, Widespread Use of Mobile Devices, Broadband Internet Penetration, increasing Computing Power, the Consumption of Content anywhere, anytime and on any Device.
JÉRÔME DONCIEUX Co-Founder & CEO Relaxnews
While some Branding Trends are abandoned as fast as they appear, leading with a Social Conscience is Evergreen. Today, Consumers want to believe that Companies care about the same Causes they do. According to the 2018 Edelman Earned Brand Report, 64% of Consumers Worldwide are “Belief-Driven Buyers.” Modern Brands need to demonstrate that they put People before Profit to increase Trust and Loyalty… Digital Marketing World has predicted that by 2021, 13% of all Internet Traffic will consist of Live Video. And that is just one chunk of the whole Video Gamut….Always remember: People don’t need Brands, Brands need People. You need to build Authentic, Personal Relationships with Customers rather than just trying to sell to them.
In the past 25 years, the Journalistic Sphere has gone through Radical Changes and Transformations, progressively adapting to the Contemporary Global Trends in News‐Making. Traditional Understanding of Journalism as a Profession has changed significantly, mostly due to the fact that Digital Media Environment has brought new Opportunities but also Challenges related to the Journalistic Practice.

Closing speech by JÉRÔME DONCIEUX
An increasing number of Businesses are starting to adopt the Platform Business model and its Digital Strategies in order to remain Competitive. This digitally based New Economy, utilizing these Online Frameworks, has been given a Variety of Names, that are often interchangeably used. To name a few examples, it is frequently labelled as ‘the Creative Economy’, the ‘Sharing Economy’, the ‘Gig Economy’, or the ‘Peer Economy’. Traditional Linear Business Models create Value through creating Products and Services that are sold to a Customer. Platform based Business Models on the other hand, create their Value by connecting Users (both Consumers and Producers) on an Online Network.
Value Drivers will make a Company’s Products seem better than its Competitors’. By creating as many Value Drivers as possible, a Company can boost its Leverage on the Marketplace. They will further influence Consumers to purchase that Product. These provide Products with Distinguishable Traits that Companies can use to make their Respective Products more Desirable in the eyes of the Consumer. To continuously add Value to Products and Services, Businesses should constantly be monitoring the Market so that they can be the first to take advantage of Changes in Demand and Consumer Behavior. Value Driver’s do not have to directly relate to a Product. Something such as a Reputation of having great Customer Service can be a Value Driver for a Company.

AUBADE SPRING-SUMMER COLLECTION 2020
BEAUTY / GREEN / LIFESTYLE – BOLD BLUEBERRY AND CHERRY MAGAZINE
November 07, 2019 @ Hotel FAUCHON – Paris
Aubade is by far the number one Luxury Lingerie Designer in France. Aubade has a long History that spans back to 1875 with the Foundation of a Corset and Girdle Company that would later be acquired in 1958 by the Pasquier Family, the Creators of Aubade…. Seduction on the Skin. Inspired by Courtly Love, the name Aubade itself implies Seduction in French. Sophisticated. Dangerous. Risqué. Dominant. All these Words & more spring to mind when you think of Aubade. With its Stylistic Audacity and Stunning Photography, the Brand empowers Women to fully appropriate their Inner Powers of Seduction.
Despite its Longstanding Presence in France it wasn’t until 1992 that Aubade cemented its Status as the Nation’s Favorite. It was that year that the Brand began its Famous Lessons de Séduction (Lessons in Seduction) ad campaign that propelled it to Center Stage, on every Parisian Billboard and into the Hearts and Imaginations of Millions of French Men and Women. The Lessons in Seduction are so Wildly Popular that they continue up to this Day.
The CALIDA GROUP is a Global Player specializing in Clothing with its Brands CALIDA, AUBADE, MILLET, EIDER, LAFUMA Outdoor, LAFUMA MOBILIER and OXBOW. The CALIDA and AUBADE Brands make the CALIDA GROUP one of the World’s Leading Providers of High-Quality Underwear, Nightwear and Luxury Lingerie. CALIDA and AUBADE are sold in around 70 Countries via High-End Specialty Retailers, Upmarket Department Stores and CALIDA Stores and AUBADE Boutiques.
The Woman provokes Desire and envy with Simple Suggestions that she masters to Perfection. The Word is now Useless, everything depends on the Language of th Body, which finds itself liberated and able to do everything. Transparent Panties, Lace Bodysuits, Light and Playful Fringes, thanks to her Lingerie, all the Seductive Power is once again restored to the Woman, who no longer even needs Words to express her Mood and Desires…. That’s the Language of Aubade.

Creativity, High Technology and Quality: three Requirements of the International Luxury Industry. In the early 90s, Richard David Zaoui regrets not only the Lack of a Business Network but also of a Demonstration involving SMB (worldwide Leading Luxury Suppliers Brands) sharing the same conception of the European Luxury That is why, he imagined in 1994, an Exhibition called “Les Places d’Or” where Profesionals, Clients and Prospects can meet in a Prestigious Area, with a Muted Ambiance in Paris. This Union of Skills bound for perfumery; Jeweler’s; Ready To Wear; Leather; Culinary Arts; Wines and Spirits; Chocolate; Delicatessen and Press… give the Opportunity to regroup in one area Creativity, Realizations and Raw Material…. This Year was the 25th Anniversary and the 15th Edition taking place the 5th, 6th and 7th of November at the Hotel Le Meurice (Paris).
Luxury and Specialty Packaging is the Design, Research, Development, and Manufacturing of Packaging, Displays, and for Luxury Brands. The Packaging of a Luxury Product is part of the Brand’s Image and Research Shows Consumers are willing to spend more on Products if the Packaging looks appealing and luxurious. As well as adding to the Value of the Product, Luxury Packaging fulfils various other roles; it enhances the Image of the Brand, increases Consumer Engagement through Personalised Packaging, performs a Function, creates Appeal and diversifies the Product…. Globally, the Luxury Packaging Market continues to grow, driven by Global Trends of Personalised Packaging, attention to Sustainability Issues, Economic and Demographic Drivers. .

The Distinction between Mass-Market and Luxury Products is becoming blurred, prompting Luxury Brands to turn to Innovative Technologies and Strategies to attract Customers to their High-End Goods. According to the Smithers Report The Future of Luxury Packaging to 2022 – the luxury Packaging Market was valued at over $13.77 billion in 2016, with Global Sales Forecast to increase by 3.4% in 2017 to $14.25 billion. In volume terms, a Growth Rate of 2.6% is forecast for 2017, after which the World mMrket is expected to increase by an annual average of 1.3% up to 2022.
The Major Study from Smithers pinpoints the main developments in Technology that are expected to aid Market Growth over the next five years. Among the Four Principal Drivers are:
* Using packaging as a medium to premiumise a product
* Creating a consumer connection via personalised and customised print
* The growing importance of consumers in non-traditional markets
* Engaging with an online sales culture

To do that, they rely more and more on Digital Technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Big Data, which are helping them in redesigning Customer Engagement Techniques through Data Analytics. In this Path between the Old and the New, they are facing Customers’ Increasing Sensitivity towards Privacy but are trying to convert it into an Opportunity to offer more Personalized Products and Services to their Customer Base.
Historically, the Luxury Industry has been associated with Concepts like Excessive Consumerism, extremely High Costs, Elitism or Guilty Pleasures. However, as the New Generations are taking over the Market with their New Values, Consumers’ Expectation for Luxury Brands are changing accordingly. Ethics and Moral Values are becoming increasingly important for Consumers, in such a way that they are starting to strongly influence their Purchasing Decisions. Environment, Sustainability, Animal Welfare, Production and Labor Practices, Positive Impact on Communities are all elements now taken into consideration when buying a Product, and Luxury Goods are not an Exception.
To stimulate Interest among Millennials and Gen Z, luxury Brands are increasingly using Social Media Platforms to engage with Young Consumers, while trying to keep their Brand Value Intact.The Future Success of Luxury Brands depends on how well they will be able to communicate and market their Goods to the New Generations of Tech-Savvy Buyers. The Rapid Digitalization and ease of use of the digitalized platforms have led Consumers, especially the Youngest Ones, to increasingly use Social Media Tools to express their Brand Preferences.
In an Age of Fast Changing Trends, Luxury Companies have started to keep an eye on a New Consumer Class that is rising nowadays and is going to become increasingly Relevant in the Future: the HENRYs (High-Earners-Not–Rich-Yet). In addition, Companies are committing to make significant Investments in stimulating the Interest of the Younger Segments of the Population, namely Millennials and Gen Z: the Customers of the Future
Since these ‘New’ Tech Savvy Generations look for Individualized, Seamless Brand Relationship, Brands are investing Worldwide to market Digitally, increasingly using Social Media to engage with these Consumers. Meanwhile, Companies are also re-examining the Value of Brand Heritage and Brand History for their Customers. Consumer Demand has become the Core Focus of the Business, hence the Adoption of an Onmi-Personal Approach, Irrespective of the Choice of Channel.

Quote from Green Strategy, June 2014
“More sustainable fashion can be defined as clothing, shoes and accessories that are manufactured, marketed and used in the most sustainable manner possible, taking into account both environmental and socio-economic aspects. In practice, this implies continuous work to improve all stages of the product’s life cycle, from design, raw material production, manufacturing, transport, storage, marketing and final sale, to use, reuse, repair, remake and recycling of the product and its components. From an environmental perspective, the aim should be to minimize any undesirable environmental effect of the product’s life cycle by: (a) ensuring efficient and careful use of natural resources (water, energy, land, soil, animals, plants, biodiversity, ecosystems, etc); (b) selecting renewable energy sources (wind, solar, etc) at every stage, and (c) maximizing repair, remake, reuse, and recycling of the product and its components. From a socio-economic perspective, all stakeholders should work to improve present working conditions for workers on the field, in the factories, transportation chain, and stores, by aligning with good ethics, best practice and international codes of conduct.”

The Customers are so empowered today because of the Technology and the Resources available to them. The basically unlimited Data, Content, and Information that the Audience has access to has set the Bar a little Higher for Brands. To reach this New Standard of Brand Experiences, the Marketer has to harness his own Data, too. Data is the Key to making Good Business Decisions, and to get the right information, you must have the Technology to get the Data in the first place; ask the right questions to interpret it; and affirm the Data by analyzing what the Customers actually do.

Luxury Marketing Innovation Summit
Consumers in the last few years have executed brilliantly on a Disruptive Strategy to elbow their way into the Advertising Ecosystem as an Equal Player alongside Marketers, Agencies, Tech Companies, Publishers and others. Clinging to the Old Style, Marketing that puts a Target on Passive Consumers in the center of the Ad Ecosystem just won’t work any longer. Marketers are experiencing more and more Consumer Resistance that in Recent Days has overcome even the Smartest of Ad Targeting Options. You simply will not get past the Consumer’s Growing Sensitivity to Ads even if you can temporarily get past the Technology that blocks them.
– Luxury Marketing Innovation Summit – Finding Success in the Age of Empowered Consumer (Chambre de Commerce et d’Industrie de Paris – June 27, 2019) : Cross-Channel Brand Management and Digital Transformation At The Heart Of Marketing Effectiveness.
** Main Topics developed :
1) The Age of Empowered Consumer in Luxury & Retail.
Challenges and Opportunities for Luxury Brands. Interconnected Luxury Consumers engage with Brands in Empowered Actions, such as Cross-Checking Prices, interacting via Social Media, reading/writing Product Reviews. Multichannel Retailers have to capitalize on the Power of Reviews, plan for Pricing and deliver the Right Products through the Right Channels seamlessly. The Relationship with a Consumer and a Brand goes beyond a Purchase Transaction, which requires building Customized Post-Purchase Strategies, embracing both Online Community-Based Interaction and Offline Customer Service.
In the Interconnected World Demographic and Societal Changes impact Luxury Consumer Values, triggering a Shift from Affluence to Influence. Hyper-Connected Consumers can influence the Masses of other Consumers. This requires a Shift from segmented to Personalized Marketing. Values-Driven Consumption triggered a Shift from Transaction-Based Relationship to that of Trust in the ‘Goodness’ of Brands.3) – Digital Toolkit for creating Seamless Customer Experience.
Technology is the Reason that the Power has shifted to the Consumer. From Brick-And-Mortar to Direct-To-Customer Online Retail, all Aspects of Shopping Experience should be reinvented: In the world of AI and VR, D2C, 3D scanning, RFID and Blockchain, what are the Key Success Factors for Luxury Brands to use the Right Tools for the Ultimate Goal (a Seamless and Meaningful High-End Customer Experience?
Key Success Factors for Luxury Brands to Mix Craft and Tech: Technology as a Tool to sell Dreams. Craft Manufacturing & Frontier Technology: AI, 3D Printing and Robotics as the greatest Dilemma of the Modern Artisan Craftsmen. Best Practices of mixing Hand Craftsmanship with Tech-Enhanced Product Prototyping & Production. Purposeful Consumption: In the Digital World, art will be the Aspect of Luxury Consumption that will connect Products to Human Nature. Emotions and Personal Engagement will be Key to create Meaningful Customer Experiences.

MORE MEN UNDERGO PLASTIC SURGERY AS THE DADDY DO OVER TREND RISES IN POPULARITY

EMBRACING THEIR OWN SET OF TREATMENTS
Just as women can turn to a suite of procedures, known as the “Mommy Makeover,” more men are embracing their own set of treatments, the “Daddy-Do-Over,” to boost their confidence and improve their physical appearance. A new report from the American Society of Plastic Surgeons reveals that more than 1.3 million cosmetic procedures were performed on men last year alone, representing a 29 percent increase since 2000.
Similar to a Mommy Makeover, the “Daddy-Do-Over” consists of surgical and non-surgical body contouring and facial procedures that are typically performed in a single surgery. Due to this rising trend, plastic surgery is becoming a common Father’s Day request as more men consider a surgical assist to enhance their physique and fend off the “dad bod” for a while longer.
Dr. Anne TAYLOR, ASPS member surgeon*
“Obviously, men don’t go through the same physical changes that women experience during pregnancy and post-pregnancy, but their lifestyle does change, which can impact their appearance,” said Alan Matarasso, MD, president of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons. “Diet and exercise patterns fluctuate, and they don’t sleep as much. Men notice their body changes due to aging and parenting, and it starts to look completely different in their 30s and 40s. That is the point of a Daddy-Do-Over.”
After struggling to lose stubborn fat around his mid-section through dieting, 57-year-old Scott, a restaurateur in New York City, pursued plastic surgery when diet and exercise couldn’t help him reach his goals.
“I realized I was never going to lose the weight on my own,” he said. “Plastic surgery is a personal decision, but I know guys my age who have done different cosmetic procedures. I think an open dialogue about plastic surgery is becoming more acceptable, especially for men.”
With more than 200,000 surgical procedures performed on men in 2018, rhinoplasty was the most popular with more than 52,000 procedures. Eyelid surgery ranked second, followed by liposuction (up 5 percent). Breast reduction (gynecomastia) ranked number four with more than 24,000 procedures, up 22 % since 2000, and hair transplantation ranked fifth, up 17 % since 2017.
Despite his lean physique, Dennis, 59, a creative director in New York City, also found it challenging to lose weight in specific areas. With a desire for a natural outcome, he underwent chin surgery and buccal fat removal surgery, as well as an eye lift to achieve a more youthful, toned appearance.
“I’ve been in fashion my entire career, and it makes me feel good when I walk in the room and I don’t feel as if I look 60 in a room of 25- to-30-year-olds,” said Dennis. “I always carried weight in my neck and chin, and my droopy eyelids made me look more tired than I actually was. I’ve gained unexpected confidence from the small changes I took.”
Nearly half a million Botox procedures were performed on men last year, and more than 100,000 men had filler injections to reduce the signs of aging. Dr. Matarasso says male patients today embrace nonsurgical and minimally-invasive procedures to the same degree as female patients.

L’OREAL LAUNCHES ITS FIRST 4.0 TECHNOLOGY INCUBATOR FOR INDUSTRY & SUPPLY CHAIN
Inauguration of “MYT : Make Your Technology”, by L’Oréal (Its First 4.0 Technology Incubator Dedicated to the
Industry & Supply Chain of the Future). – On June 03, 2019 at Aulnay-sous-Bois, the Historical Heart of L’Oréal’s Industry and Research.
With the Presence and Speech of :
* Barbara LAVERNOS, – L’Oréal Chief Technology and Operations Officer
* Bruno BESCHIZZA – Mayor of Aulnay-Sous-Bois
On June 03, 2019, L’Oréal inaugurated its first 4.0 Technology Incubator created for its Employees and dedicated to Industry and Supply Chain of the Future: “MYT – Make You Technology”. For many years, L’Oréal has been developing Partnerships with External Start-Ups Incubators to encourage Technological Innovation. The Purpose of the MYT is to create the Same Incubation Process Internally. The MYT will help to identify, develop and implement Ideas thanks to the new 4.0 Technologies, while training the Teams in Agile Methods (Ideation – Incubation – Acceleration).
Open Innovation at L’Oréal (Programme set up in 2016) is a Dynamic Mix of bringing External and Internal Ideas to transform the way Consumers interact with Beauty. This means establishing lasting Connections with Beauty & Tech Startups. They want to create a New Generation of Innovative Beauty Products, Devices and Digital Services.
– Beauty Products and Devices Startups :
* 1) Pitch your Project to L’Oréal – October (March Applicants pitch in April) – April (September Applicants pitch in October).
* 2) Join one of the 2 annual Cohorts : #1 May to November – #2 January to June
* 3) Get your Personalised Mentoring Program & Station F Access
– Digital Services and Tech Startups
* 1) Spot Opportunities for the Beauty Consumers
* 2) Build POCs with one of L’Oréal Brand
* 3) Scale your Project globally across all L’Oréal Brands
Seems like everywhere you look, big Beauty Brands are either turning to or setting up Incubators and Accelerators, hoping to capture the Next Big Thing. What was once a way for Small Brands or Upstarts, to grow into Medium-Sized Success Stories is quickly becoming the Norm in Product Development. A few recently in the News : L’Oréal’s Founders Factory, Sephora’s Female-Driven Accelerate, The Unilever Foundry, P&G’s Connect + Develop Program, and Target’s own Accelerator and Partnership with Beach House Group (Formerly Project Underground), undertaken last year to launch Lines Mayfair Soap Foundry, Marlowe, and You Are Amazing….
A Word about Accelerators versus Incubators. The major Difference is that Accelerators tend to focus on Short-Term Support to help a Brand get off the Ground, while Incubators have more of a Marathon Mentality, often starting earlier in the Development Stage. However, the Line between the two is blurring more and more, and now the Terms are used almost Interchangeably.

“Dirty.” “Angry.” “Evil.” These are three words dictionaries still use to define the word “Black.” My Black Is Beautiful – a platform created by a group of visionary Black women – today launched a movement challenging all dictionaries to #RedefineBlack in partnership with DoSomething.org. The commitment and deliberate call for change comes as My Black Is Beautiful re-dedicates its ongoing mission: to spotlight all that is beautiful about Black beauty and culture, as well as transcend bias through promoting a more positive representation of Blackness. A timely movement, the negative associations tied to the word “Black” are pervasive and continue to live through language, as evident in many dictionaries of standard.
CHALLENGES DICTIONARIES #REDEFINEBLACK
For My Black Is Beautiful, #RedefineBlack is aimed at driving dialogue and meaningful change, with an understanding that “Black” isn’t an individual term or identity. Words can make a powerful impact on how we feel, as well as influence how we are perceived, and how we perceive others.
Said Carrie Bloxson, Chief Marketing Officer, DoSomething.org, “Language shapes the way we see and treat people, and can fuel real-world prejudice and bias. That’s why we’re so proud to partner with My Black is Beautiful on ‘Redefine Black’. By mobilizing young people around this issue, we can change perception and advocate for meaningful change, starting with the words we use.”

* Guest of Honor – Jean-Marie Farina (descent of Creator of Eau de Cologne Farina (1909)
Founded in 1989, The International Perfume Museum, the Only Museum of its Kind in the World, is located in the Iconic Town of Grasse, the Birthplace of Luxury Perfumes of which France was the Initiator. Dedicated to one of the most Prestigious Traditional French Activities, the International Perfume Museum is a Public Institution labelled “Museum of France” allowing Visitors to discover the History and Uniqueness of the Profession of Manufacturers and Large Perfumery Houses. A True Testament to the International Technical, Aesthetic, Social and Cultural History of the Tradition of the Use of Scents, the Museum takes an Anthropological Approach to the History of Fragrances in all its aspects – Raw Materials, Manufacturing, Industry, Innovation, Trading, Design, Uses and through a Variety of Forms : Art Objects, Decorative Arts, Textiles, Archaeological Evidence, Unique Pieces or Industrial Forms.
– The Internaional Perfume Museum GARDENS
* The Idea of creating a Conservatory for the Botanical and Floral Heritage of the Perfume Industry in Grasse came about long ago. Utility Gardens, Flower Gardens, Botanical Collections that were in Vogue in the Nineteenth Century, and Scientific or Test Gardens like the one created by the Manufacturers of the Grasse Perfumery in 1920, contributed to the Development of the Culture of Perfume. Created in 2003, they form part of a Regional Project led by the Urban Community Pôle Azur Provence.
* In 2007, the Project “La Bastide du Parfumeur” was born, attracting substantial Private Funding, Advice from Specialists (Architects, Gardeners, Botanists, Perfumers), as well as the support of the Municipality of Mouans-Sartoux and the Urban Community Pôle Azur Provence. The “Bastide du Parfumeur” was created in order to educate the Wider Public about the Growing of Perfumery Plants in the Grasse Region. This Project focused exclusively on the Various Issues related to Local Agriculture and played an Essential Role in Sustainable Development and Heritage.
In the Context of the Partnership signed by the Pôle Azur Provence Urban Community with the League for the Protection of Birds (LPO), the International Perfume Museum’s Gardens are committed to a “REFUGE LPO ” APPROACH so as to promote the Wildlife on Site. It is a Commitment to using Environmentally Friendly Techniques, practicing Organic Gardening (no Phytosanitary Products – no Pesticides or Synthetic Fertilisers), cutting Trees back outside of Breeding Season, promoting Biodiversity by installing Nest Boxes, Hibernation Shelters, creating piles of Wood, and favouring Native Plants. Through this approach, the MIP’s Gardens have become a Haven for Birds, Insects, Small Mammals and the Associated Flora. In 2012, a Biodiversity Inventory was completed and Birds, Mammals, Dragonflies, Amphibians, Reptiles and Butterflies were identified on the Site. As part of the Development Work on the Gardens, a Pond was also created to allow everyone to watch the Wildlife on the Site.

Football has never been simply an Athletic Endeavor; its Collaborations with the Fashion World have attracted the Attention of even those who are not Football Fans. At the Closing Ceremony of the World Cup in France in 1998, Yves Saint Laurent held a 300-Model Fashion Show. Shakira wore a Zebra-Print Jumpsuit designed by Roberto Cavalli to perform at the Opening of the World Cup in South Africa in 2010. Each of the National Teams appeared in Suits by Major Global Brands….
Fashion Brands are also making the most of other Opportunities presented by the Tournament’s Hype. But might a Team Suit have Deeper Significance than Moneymaking ? Domenico Dolce of Dolce & Gabbana says there is a Degree of Expectation because “Football Players are Style Icons now”. Tailor Charlie Allen “I think it’s Important that National Teams wear the Clothing of their Nation’s Makers.”… So, it is pointed out by Smalto House “Since 2013, The Maison Smalto is proud to dress the French football Team and designs, on this occasion, their Official Casual Outfits…. Exemplary of a State of Mind that we share the same Values of Perseverance, Excellence and Technicality, the Suit of the Blue Team, worthy of the Greatest French Know-How, refers to the Emblematic Color of the French Flag. They are going to stand gracefully for the Colors of our Country… The Maison Smalto and the French Football Team have the same Convergence Points : those of Excellence, Requirement and Passion. This reflects a Unique French Know-How.”.
The Collection of the French Football Team is composed of a Two-Piece Traditional Suit made of Super 150’s Fine Wool, a Light Blue Shirt, a Silk Tie, a Leather and Silver Belt, and Blue Brogue with a Handmade Finished Patina. It is ornamented inside the Jacket, at the Level of the Heart, by “Two Stars” elegantly sewn. The Smalto Iconic Product is The Suit and the Result of an Outstanding Work. From the Suit to the Tuxedo, they are the Key Elements of the Well-Dressed Man Wardrobe. Until today, the Smalto Style is based on certain Essential Elements that give it a Unique and Immediately Recognizable Personality.

SODEXO Names TOP FACILITIES MANAGEMENT TRENDS
To Watch For In 2019

New Technology To Sustainable Solutions
From new technology to sustainable solutions that create more efficient and comfortable buildings, Sodexo’s Vice President of Facilities Management, Eric Jouane, names the top trends in facilities management to watch for in 2019. All are aimed at improving living experiences, which are key to helping achieve better personal and professional fulfillment. His selections cover a variety of topics, including technology, recruiting and retaining employees, data aggregation, and sustainability.
Sodexo’s trends in facilities management include :
* Technology
– Augmented Reality glasses are taking facilities management to a new level. Engineers and technicians can use the augmented reality glasses to communicate in real time with experts, share instant live video, and get the guidance they need to solve a problem.
– Chatbot Programs are the newest way to ask and receive information. This version of artificial intelligence offers an alternative to live customer support by continually learning from the questions asked by users. Students at schools using the technology can reach out to the campus chatbot for information on anything from the weather to menus at the dining hall to facilities management issues with campus buildings.

* Engaging Millennials and Gen Z In Trade Careers
– Attracting talent in FM trade careers is one of the most pressing issues in FM today. The workforce is getting smaller as fewer young adults are choosing blue collar jobs and older workers are retiring. This has left a significant shortage of skilled talent in FM. Providing apprenticeships for high school students through partnerships with schools and giving access to the latest technology are two options to engage younger hires.
– Retaining talent is another challenge in a tight labor market. Providing a path for career growth and leadership opportunities are key to keeping top talent. One example includes creating a think tank within companies to allow employees, both front line and management, to innovate. Employees who feel they are making a difference in their companies are more engaged and happier at work.
* Using Data to Create Smarter Buildings
– Integrated Facility Services takes advantage of new technologies and the Internet of Things (IoT) while eliminating redundancies that often result when you have multiple service providers. A single service provider can inventory and aggregate data from the client’s facility and equipment allowing the facilities management team to view the client’s needs holistically. The data produced by this predictive technology gives FM professionals the information needed to predict how their equipment is maintained, repaired and/or replaced.
– Building Analytics is one of the fastest growing trends in Facilities Management. The most popular systems are fully customizable and can monitor and measure all major manufacturers’ building controls equipment. They have the capability to analyze data from a variety of systems allowing data collection on benchmark performance, output and energy savings.
– Remote monitoring of commonly installed critical assets, such as mechanical, life safety, or lighting equipment, provides a 24/7/365 presence for clients. These call centers can identify failures, respond to alarms, and resolve the issues remotely, providing support to the on-site teams. Having the ability to remotely resolve system failures often eliminates the need to dispatch a service technician, saving clients a tremendous amount of time and money.
* Green Buildings
– The Living Building is becoming an affordable reality. In the coming months and years, buildings will make their own energy, whether through solar panels, which are smaller and easier to install; wind energy in areas where air flow can be harnessed for the buildings’ benefit; or other types of renewable energy.
– Taking the Living Building a step further are Waste-free Buildings, which not only produce their own electricity but create minimal waste. This includes paper, food, and trash. The building, its occupants and FM teams recycle and reuse the building’s system components to achieve their sustainable goal.

Proceedings kicked off at Midday hosted by Hip Hop Artist Clement Marfo, who is recognized for his Frequently Featured TV Anthem ‘Champion’.
Marwan Elgamal, Founder of The High Club said just before the Event, “This Year has been Huge for the Cannabis Industry, not just for Business but also the Law itself. In the UK we’ve seen considerable Progression made in regards to Medicinal Access. To mark what has been an Unprecedented Year for the Cannabis in the UK, we’ve put Plans in Place for this to be an Unforgettable 420. Last year there were around 15,000 People, this year it will be more than double that.”
Amelia Amin, Founder of CBD company Endoboxes, and Head of Management at The High Club, also said, “It’s All Part of our Duty as a Company. We support the Liberalisation of Cannabis Laws that this Historic Protest Demands. It’s a Privilege to provide a Platform for Key Members of the UK Cannabis Community to speak on. It’s our Way to engage with the Voices of the People and to make sure their Collective Voices are heard by Government.”
The Head Sponsor of Saturday’s Festivities is Product Earth, a Well-Established Leader in the Hemp/Cannabis/CBD Industry. Product Earth runs an Annual Cannabis Trade Expo and Festival – this Year’s Expo is on the 23rd-25th August in Warwickshire.

The 3rd Annual Women4Climate Conference – February 20-21, 2019
Women make up more than half the World’s population, and although they are often disproportionately impacted by Climate Change, their Voices are not always heard due to Lack of Inclusion and Representation at the Decision-Making Level. Now more than ever, enhancing Women’s Participation and Leadership in the Conversation around Climate Action will be Critical to securing a Healthy, Prosperous and Sustainable Future for us All.
In Recent Years, a Small Number of Extraordinary Women have emerged as Key Leaders on Global Action to tackle Climate Change. However, more generally, Women are Grossly Under-Represented in High-Level Climate Negotiations; tend to be Disproportionately Vulnerable to Climate Impacts ; and Climate Solutions tend to ignore Gender-Specific Issues, perpetuating a General Bias of Infrastructure and Services designed predominantly for Men.
