Luxury Swiss Watchmaker Ulysse Nardin Partners with Ocearch, the Leading Scientific Shark Conservation Non-Profit
LUXURY SWISS WATCHMAKER ULYSSE NARDIN PARTNERS WITH OCEARCH, THE LEADING SCIENTIFIC SHARK CONSERVATION NON-PROFIT ULYSSE NARDIN’S ONGOING COMMITMENT TO PROTECT THE WORLD’S OCEANS IS FURTHERED THROUGH THIS PARTNERSHIP WITH OCEARCH WHICH TIRELESSLY STRIVES TO SAVE THE PLANET’S SHARK POPULATION CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD HI RES IMAGERY Miami, Florida – June 29, 2020 – Luxury Swiss watchmaker, ULYSSE NARDIN announces today its partnership and support of the non-profit research organization, OCEARCH. Continuing its commitment to supporting marine research, ULYSSE NARDIN, has teamed up with OCEARCH, a data and scientific driven organization that works collaboratively with researchers and educational institutions to better understand the movement and habits of sharks. As a watch brand with deep ties to the ocean symbolized by the shark, it was only natural for ULYSSE NARDIN to form a partnership with the very organization leading the charge in shark research and conservation. OCEARCH’s urgent mission is to accelerate the ocean’s return to balance and abundance through fearless innovation in scientific research, education, outreach, and policy, using unique collaborations of individuals and organizations in the U.S. and abroad. Their goal is to assist researchers in their work and provide invaluable resources to better understand the shark’s role as apex predator in the ocean’s fragile ecosystem. The art of watching a shark’s migratory movement and the science behind their effect on marine life has been mastered by the OCEARCH team. Their hard-work and dedication to the understanding of sharks piqued the interest of the U.S. president of ULYSSE NARDIN, François-Xavier Hotier, when he joined the brand in 2018.

Devoir De Vigilance: Reforming Corporate Risk Engagement
Devoir de Vigilance: Reforming Corporate Risk Engagement Copyright © Development International e.V., 2020 ISBN: 978-3-9820398-5-5 Authors: Juan Ignacio Ibañez, LL.M. Chris N. Bayer, PhD Jiahua Xu, PhD Anthony Cooper, J.D. Title: Devoir de Vigilance: Reforming Corporate Risk Engagement Date published: 9 June 2020 Funded by: iPoint-systems GmbH www.ipoint-systems.com 1 “Liberty consists of being able to do anything that does not harm another.” Article 4, Declaration of the Rights of the Man and of the Citizen of 1789, France 2 Executive Summary The objective of this systematic investigation is to gain a better understanding of how the 134 confirmed in-scope corporations are complying with – and implementing – France’s progressive Devoir de Vigilance law (LOI n° 2017-399 du 27 Mars 2017).1 We ask, in particular, what subject companies are doing to identify and mitigate social and environmental risk/impact factors in their operations, as well as for their subsidiaries, suppliers, and subcontractors. This investigation also aims to determine practical steps taken regarding the requirements of the law, i.e. how the corporations subject to the law are meeting these new requirements. Devoir de Vigilance is at the legislative forefront of the business and human rights movement. A few particular features of the law are worth highlighting. Notably, it: ● imposes a duty of vigilance (devoir de vigilance) which consists of a substantial standard of care and mandatory due diligence, as such distinct from a reporting requirement; ● sets a public reporting requirement for the vigilance plan and implementation report (compte rendu) on top of the substantial duty of vigilance; ● strengthens the accountability of parent companies for the actions of subsidiaries; ● encourages subject companies to develop their vigilance plan in association with stakeholders in society; ● imposes civil liability in case of non-compliance; ● allows stakeholders with a legitimate interest to seek injunctive relief in the case of a violation of the law.

Alexander Mcqueen Bottega Veneta Burberry Coach
This PDF contains original work for my copywriting portfolio. These samples have been written for this sole purpose and have no affiliation to any companies or websites. Alexander McQueen Butterfly Print Silk Scarf “Alexander McQueen may have a reputation for all things gothic, but the British label switches up the formula with this scarf from its SS20 collection. Cut from lightweight silk chiffon with delicate fringed edges, it clashes the usual skull motif with borders of colourful butterflies. Wrap yours around one of the house's studded leather jackets.” Bottega Veneta Intrecciato Leather Wallet “With Daniel Lee heading up its latest collection, Bottega Veneta continues to prove its expertise in leather craftsmanship with accessories like this billfold wallet. Cut from smooth nappa calfskin, it’s covered in the classic geometric squares of the Italian label’s iconic Intrecciato weave. Open it up and you’ll find eight card slots and two note compartments for your cash.” Burberry Thomas Bear Leather Bag Charm “If you’re a fan of Burberry, you’ll know that each season the British label drops a new version of its famous (and impeccably dressed) little teddy charm. This time around, Thomas Bear is reworked in leather with a cotton trench coat and completely covered in the house’s new TB monogram. It’s fitted with a polished lobster clasp fastening to easily clip to your favourite bag.” Coach © Thomas Arthur Charlie Leather Tote “Coach plays up its iconic branding in its SS20 collection with the Charlie tote. Cut from the label’s signature coated canvas, it’s covered with an interlocking monogram print that’s understated enough for the office and detailed with silver-tone hardware.

Kering – a Path Towards Sustainable Luxury
Kering – A path towards sustainable luxury Carolina Fernandes Dissertation written under the supervision of Patricia Amaro Machado Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of requirements for the MSc in Management with Specialization in Strategy and Entrepreneurship, at the Universidade Católica Portuguesa, 4th January 2019 Abstract Dissertation Title: Kering - A path towards sustainable luxury Author: Carolina Fernandes Keywords: strategic change, dynamic capabilities, firm performance, sustainability, luxury goods Organizations are affected by exogenous shocks such as changes in consumer preferences through time, making it crucial to face these challenges in a way that will lead to a competitive advantage, as well as long-term survival. In order to overcome these situations, firms need to actively change their strategy to successfully adapt to the external environment, by altering, for instance, its technology, structure and processes. Scholars have studied the importance of strategic change, as well as dynamic capabilities, in firm’s success, highlighting the impact of an active process of change and its positive effect on performance. This dissertation focuses on showing a real-life example of a company that changed its processes in order to increase its fit with the external environment. The teaching case focuses on Kering’s path towards becoming a luxury leader in environmental sustainability, transforming its governance structure as well as operational practices. The luxury conglomerate used dynamic capabilities successfully in order to adapt, not to a crisis, but to a gradual change in consumer preferences. This case is a clear example of how important it is for companies to sense potential changes in the external environment, and to take action in order to address those situations in a way that will improve performance in the long-run.
