According to a study released in 2012 by eMarketer\, online advertising was expected to generate $39.5 billion in sales that year — a 23.3% increase from 2011 — compared to $33.8 billion on print. However\, like anything humans do\, it’s hard to break old habits. Fast forward to 2017\, there are still some newspapers with help wanted adverts and magazines advertising luxury brands. How effective is that? The model for raising your brand awareness and your important influence on the market has changed. CEOs must be aware of what media\, whether it be social\, online\, or print\, can have on their brand. \nHow can we manage our brands with our team members? How do we increase the exposure for the brands that our teams sell and support? What can we do for the future of our brand and new product ideas? How do we harness the power of the new Millennial work force coming into our ranks? In the May CEO Insights\, we will discuss effective ways to manage our corporate brands in this new era of media for our teams\, distributors\, and most importantly our clients.

Taking a loan has never been so cheap\, yet Japanese citizens and companies continue to hesitate to borrow and invest. Citizens in Japan are sitting on huge and increasing savings\, more than half of which lay idle in cash deposits bearing no interest. The government wants to change the country from a savings mindset to an investing mindset to ensure better future prospects for all\, and has engaged various measures towards that goal. But encouraging people to take more risk is one thing; protecting the public from overly risky or unscrupulous investments is another. This makes changing the savings to investment transition even more challenging. Enter the revived concept of Fiduciary Duty\, Japan-style\, which requires our banks and financial intermediaries to implement measures protecting their clients and investors. \nIn the May CI meeting\, experienced banker and financial boss Mr. Laurent Depus leads the discussion on what is going on inside the consumer market\, the banking industry\, and government. Mr. Depus is the Managing Director of French financial house Natixis’ Japan business and a long term resident of Japan. He also serves on the board of a Japanese financial industry leading firm. \nCome join us for insights on what our bankers sell us in Japan\, and how!

We have prepared a list of topics and questions to spur the conversation but this is your chance to ask ANYTHING legal. The meeting will follow the flow of the group\, however initial areas planned may include \nPeople- Hiring & Firing\nData Protection\nMergers & Acquisitions\neCommerce\nCorporate Liability\nDigital Currencies\nAgreements\nProtections \nDon’t miss this chance to catch up with one of CI’s favorite legal professionals and compare notes with your CEO peers.

Having a brand that reflects well online is essential to being a successful enterprise.  As eCommerce and online marketing is a relatively new area\, there aren’t many universities teaching about the business or people experienced in the area that we can help from day one.  There is a lot to learn and it is valuable to get insights from those who have already done so. \n  \nMr. Guy Keeling\, Vice President Global e-Commerce at the Barilla Group\, will be visiting Japan in May.  Barilla Group is a global leader at driving online food sales working with the world’s winning grocery e-retailers\, being hailed by L2 as a Thought Leader and publicly recognized by Amazon as a Top 5 CPG to work with.  For the past four years\, Barilla’s global e-Commerce revenues have grown at double the industry average.  Prior to taking up his role at Barilla four years ago\, Mr Keeling worked in leadership roles at Tesco and at Procter & Gamble.  On May 16\, we will have the opportunity to get to know Mr. Keeling in a joint CEO Insights event.\n \n\nYou will also have the opportunity to catch up with other CI members from the other two groups. Please note\, this is an invitation-only event with limited space due to the room size. We will accommodate as many people in as possible.
