Dear Friends of the EBC,<\/p>\n

The development and approval of multiple vaccines against Covid-19 took less than one year. As the first vaccinations are starting this week in Japan, I invite you to read the following EuroBiz article about the European and Japanese involvement in developing inoculations for Covid-19<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

The EBC is also preparing an online briefing on COVID-19 Detection and Vaccination on 9 March 2021<\/strong>. Please save this date in your agenda, we will tell you more soon!<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Suga, in his first policy speech at the Diet in October 2020, announced the Japanese Government\u2019s effort to initiate plans for \u201cStrengthening Japan\u2019s functions as a global financial center\u201d. The EBC Asset Management Committee welcomes this measure in a letter<\/strong><\/a> published on 16 February 2021.<\/p>\n

As a member of the European Business Organization Worldwide Network, we are glad to publish an invitation to the next European Chamber of Commerce in Korea\u2019s webinar on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It will focus on Leading Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) Strategies for the Energy Industry<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Enjoy your reading!<\/p>\n

We hope you stay positive and healthy during this difficult time.<\/p>\n

One bright spot during the global pandemic has been the development and approval of multiple vaccines against Covid-19 \u2014 all in under a year. To put this in perspective, the average time it takes to create vaccines is 10 years. The Pfizer\u2013BioNTech, AstraZeneca\u2013Oxford, and Moderna vaccines, along with China\u2019s SinoVac and Russia\u2019s Sputnik, are already being administered. There are also dozens of other vaccines at trial stages around the world, including two from Japanese companies.<\/p>\n

As you know, sustainability is high on the European Commission\u2019s agenda. In order to contribute to a better world, the ECCK will launch a free-of-charge webinar series on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The SDGs are not widely known and the motivation behind this series is to promote the SDGs and to make a considerable audience aware of their high importance. The SDG webinar series will feature presentation by captains of industry on their insights on SDGs (efforts undertaken, success stories what is planned, as well as existing challenges).<\/p>\n

Webinar Outline
\nThe first session of the SDG Webinar Series is scheduled for 24 February and, in order to enhance its impact, the series will run throughout 2021. Each session will last under an hour, including presentation and Q&A with the participants.<\/p>\n

Partners
\nThe ECCK is delighted that H.E. Ban Ki-moon, the eight Secretary-General of United Nations, supports this initiative, and they have received confirmation from global CEOs to share their companies\u2019 insights and effort to contribute to the SDGs. This initiative is supported by the European Business Organisation Worldwide Network (EBOWWN) and EuroCham Singapore.<\/p>\n
