"Strong brands arise from the right community structure — not vice versa. The strongest, most stable structure for a brand community is a “web” whose affiliations are based on close one-to-one connections. To cultivate webs, provide opportunities for members to forge many interpersonal links"

The wine in moderation: a whole programme!

By assuming leadership in urging moderation and responsibility in wine consumption, the wine sector helps prevent alcohol abuse and misuse by enabling young people and adults to make responsible and informed decisions to support a sustainable lifestyle.

The primary objective of the “Wine in Moderation Programme” is to bring together the entire wine sector around one universal message that speaks to all wine consumers across borders, generations and genders regardless of where and when they consume wine.

This message is simple yet powerful and is supported by the whole wine sector: “Wine only appreciated in moderation”.

Key elements of the moderation message are passed through information campaigns, targeted communication materials, etc. and cover topics like healthy attitudes towards wine, the risks associated with hazardous and harmful consumption, the wine culture in general, etc.

The campaigns are planned and developed by national coordinators in collaboration with other national stakeholders and respect the different legislative restrictions as well as the culture and traditions of each country.

They are adapted based on specific events, and can be developed in various forms (broad, tailor made, online/offline, TV, etc.).

The “Wine in Moderation Programme” has seen the emergence of many tailor-made campaigns at a national level in the last couple of years.

In 2011, the European wine sector founded the Association “Wine in Moderation – Art de Vivre” with the mission to coordinate the European and global implementation of the “Wine in Moderation” Programme. The vision behind that programme is to secure responsible and moderate wine consumption patterns.

The association has selected the communication agency, Page in extremis, as a strategic partner for ensuring a stronger alignment between the messages developed by the Association and their visual expressions.

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

Located in Brussels, Page in extremis is a communication partner who can translate your communication needs into effective communication media, to offer you specialised services going from corporate and institutional branding to the development of digital and classic media and to give a clear idea of who you are and what your aims are.

Pharmacy with you throughout life!

As independent professionals located in almost every town, village, and community, pharmacists have a unique relationship with the public.
With their skills and expertise and their unrivalled accessibility to patients, they are ideally placed to support efficient health care systems by providing targeted services which promote better health at every stage in patients’ lives, from infants to elderly.

Nothing surprising therefore that the 2015 Annual Report of the Pharmaceutical Group of the European Union (PGEU) is entitled “Pharmacy with you throughout life”.

“We are perfectly placed to support efficient health care systems by providing targeted services which promote better health at every stage in patients’ lives, from infants to elderly” stated in the report, Darragh O’ Loughlin, the PGEU President 2015.

The organisation maintains regular contacts with the European Commission, the European Parliament, the Committee of Permanent Representatives (COREPER) and the Economic and Social Committee. PGEU is part of a network of over 10 European healthcare professionals’ organisations via which European Medicine Agency engages with healthcare.

The PGEU 2015 Annual Report is the result of the close collaboration between the PGEU’s communication team and the communication agency, Page in extremis.

"We argued that the heart of the diffusion process is the modelling and imitation by potential adopters of their near peers’ experiences with the new idea. In deciding whether or not to adopt an innovation, individuals depend mainly on the communicated experience of others much like themselves who have already adopted a new idea. These subjective avaluations of an innnovation flow mainly through interpersonal networks. So we must understand the nature of networks in order to understand the diffusion process"

Ciett actively contributes to the future of work debate!

As the voice of labour choice, Ciett is set up to promote common interests of the private employment services sector on an international level.

Ciett actively contributes to the future of work debate, not in the least by providing facts and figures about the employment and recruitment industry at international level in the Ciett Economic Report.

The 2016 edition of the most comprehensive fact book about the industry is one of continuity as well as change.

As in previous years, the report gives you an overview of the performance of various aspects of our industry.
The number of workers who find access to the labour market after intermediation by a recruitment and employment agency – 71.9 million people in 2014!
The turnover of the industry across the globe, which totaled 1450  billion.
And as always, there is much more data to be found in the report.

There are two new elements in this edition of the Ciett Economic Report.
The first is the different way that Ciett structures the data.
In 2015, Ciett decided to organize the data based on the four areas where the industry adds value: enabling work, adaptation, security, and prosperity.
So it is only logical that Ciett would use these four areas to structure the report that gives a comprehensive overview of the industry.

The second change is the medium Ciett chose to present this message.
The digital and online world have a profound impact on the way that the industry develops, and therefore Ciett decided also to bring the economic report online.

There is still a hard copy that offers you an insight into only a small selection of data but for the full overview of the report, you need to consult the online version.

This will make it easier for the reader, to browse the content liberally, and to share and repost the content more easily.

The online publication and the printed summary are the results of the collaboration between the communication team of Ciett and the communication agency, Page in extremis.

Based in Brussels, Page in extremis is a communication agency that makes brands conversational. The company helps organisations manage their communities, engage with their stakeholders and convey their messages through innovative digital tools.

Did you know that metallic objects, dating back more than 2,000 years, already contained nickel?

In the 19th century, nickel came to prominence in plating and alloys such as “nickel silver”.

Stainless steels were discovered early in the 20th century and nickel was found to have a very beneficial role in many of the standard grades, a situation which continues to this day.

Alloys based on nickel were found to have excellent corrosion resistance and high-temperature resistance, which made them suitable for chemical plants and also allowed the practical realisation of the jet engine.

As a result of these developments, nickel enjoyed a vigorous growth of demand in the 20th Century and remains to do so.

Nickel is highly recyclable and is an essential material for current and future technologies – making it a crucial element for European growth.

Some 688,000 jobs across Europe are directly and indirectly dependent on the nickel value chain.

Do you want to know more about Nickel, discover the “Life of Ni”, the newest publication of the Nickel Institute Europe.

The brochure results of a close collaboration between the communication team of Nickel Institute Europe and their agency partner for communication, Page in extremis.
