Communication Agency Brussels - Your Partner in Design and Brand

Interactive PDF Vs Online reports

Most organisations still put their meaningful content into an interactive or static PDF, making it tough for them to gather insights, and engage mobile readers.

Online reports or digital publications, on the other hand, are interactive microsites characterised by their own URLs. They enable the creation of measurable and mobile-friendly reports with charts, infographics, and visuals to present facts in a compelling form.

Annual reports deserve more than a mere page with a downloadable pdf file. They work best as standalone content.

By using full online reports, an organisation gains valuable insights into how their audience engages with the various section of their annual report. These insights will be relevant to improve the following edition.

The 2018 online report of the Port of Brussels is a comprehensive example of a digital publication. The Port of Brussels is a public interest organisation dependent on the Brussels-Capital Region. It plays a leading role for Brussels and the people of Brussels in fields as varied as the economy and employment, the environment, mobility, or the prevention of floods.

The Communication Agency, Page in extremis is proud to have achieved the creative development and production of the online publication.

Page in extremis has realised major web-based communications projects for many well-known European institutions and associations. As a leading communications agency, our online projects set the standard for digital communications in the European public affairs space.

The communication agency has defined a very exact process, including monitoring and quality check particularly suited to provide maximum comfort to its clients and the best results.

What are the advocacy highlights of LightingEurope in 2019?

2019 was a year of change for the EU, with elections to the European Parliament and a new Commission college taking office in December.

The LightingEurope Secretariat has been meeting the new Members of the European Parliament from May to December to offer their expertise on the policy files related to the lighting industry.

Simultaneously, the #betterlighting campaign has been complemented with www.europeanlightingpriorities.eu, outlining how lighting contributes to achieving key EU priorities.

In the 2019 LightingEurope annual report, Ms Georgoutsakou made a thought-provoking statement: “regulators’ KPIs should be based not on the number of rules they make, but on how effective these rules are in achieving their objectives and on how easy they are for companies to understand and apply and for authorities to enforce”.

And the LightingEurope General Secretary to indicate that over the next few months,  the European Lighting association “will focus on delivering guidance to {Their} members and to regulators on how to apply and enforce EU rules and on advocating for a clear legal framework that fosters fair competition among all actors on the EU market”.

Discover the new LightingEurope annual report, and learn about EU policy topics impacting lighting and the advocacy highlights and achievements in 2019.

2018 marked the 30th anniversary of CER. Since its foundation, the Community of European Railway and Infrastructure Companies (CER) has grown from 14 to more than 70 members and partners, comprising an overwhelming majority of the rail-related infrastructure and train operations in Europe.

Cooperation for sure makes CER stronger than the sum of its parts, but an essential element is that each and every member, big or small, can also make its individual voice heard within CER.

“The anniversary,” stated  Crister Fritzson, CER Chair, “gave us a good opportunity to reflect on the progress and achievements made during all these years, but also on the challenges ahead and the necessary commitments”.

More recently CER and its members have been campaigning for an adequate level of budgetary support for the rail system in the upcoming
Multiannual Financial Framework. Libor Lochmann, CER Executive Director, declared: “We are counting on this to allow rail undertakings and their customers to make the most out of the latest available digital technologies”.

Know more about CER in their last Annual Report, and understand how the rail as a whole is working together for a sustainable European mobility sector.

On the road with the European Tyre Label!

On 17 May 2018, the European Commission published a legislative proposal to revise the European Tyre Label, which is currently undergoing the co-legislators assessment and adoption.

To contribute to the debate, the European Tyre and Rubber Manufacturers’ Association (ETRMA) commissioned to Lizeo Group a study to look at the current status of the European Tyre Market, about the performance indicators on the tyre label since its implementation in 2012. The study looked at the combination of rolling resistance (fuel efficiency), and wet grip (safety) performances as these are in trade-off – and should always be considered together.

The research by the Lizeo Group concluded that there is still a significant potential for further dissemination and awareness growth of the current tyre label as 98% of the products are even labelled below B-B.

The tyre and rubber industry is a stronghold of European manufacturing, directly employing over 360,000 people - and providing additional 800,000 indirect jobs - across the EU and contributing 0,5% of the EU GDP.

The industry has significantly improved its sustainability at every stage, from design to end-of-life. Tyre weight reduction, voluntary commitment to phase out substances that proved to be dangerous, supporting the chemical industry in evaluating the risks connected to their products and the Sustainable Natural Rubber Initiative are some of the most recent examples of that commitment.

ETRMA has entrusted Page in extremis with the tasks of designing and producing the publication.

Page in extremis is a strategic design communication agency, involving an experimented multidisciplinary team, building brands and strengthening reputations for leading corporations, institutions and European associations.

Page in extremis is based in Brussels. The multidisciplinary team can help you define and translate the core-idea of your organisation into brilliant visual systems.

Eurochild: putting children at the heart of policymaking!

2017 saw two breakthroughs in the political rhetoric at EU level which can create a favourable environment for investing in children.

The first is the European Pillar of Social Rights which was proclaimed by leaders of the Council, Parliament and Commission
in November 2017. It sets 20 principles to drive social convergence upwards across the EU. Protecting children from poverty and promoting childcare is principle 11.

The second comes from the European Parliament. In a video address to the Eurochild joint event with UNICEF on Universal Children’s Day, President Tajani committed to organise an annual event in the Plenary together with children and carry out a stocktaking of the Parliament’s efforts to protect children’s rights.

“In 2018 we need to ensure these commitments don’t remain empty promises,” stated Norah Gibbons, Eurochild President and Jana Hainsworth, Eurochild Secretary-General in the 2017 Eurochild Annual Report.

Eurochild is a network of organisations working with and for children throughout Europe, striving for a society that respects the rights of children.
Eurochild influences policies, builds internal capacities, facilitates mutual learning and exchanges practice and research.
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child is the foundation of all their work.

Eurochild has 165 members spanning 33 countries. 21 of these members are National Partner Networks, representing over 2,000 children’s rights organisations in total.

The communication agency, Page in extremis is proud to have participated in the creative development and the graphical production of the Annual Report.
