「ゲームプラン ジャパン:スポーツビジネス交流 in 東京」
フィールドではライバル、フィールドを離れれば友人──オーストラリアと日本は、さまざまなスポーツの舞台で活躍し、成功を収めています。現在、オーストラリアは「グリーン&ゴールド・ディケード(Green and Gold Decade)」の真っ只中にあり、世界で開催される7つの主要スポーツイベントのうち5つを開催する予定です。一方、東京では今年、「世界陸上選手権大会」World Athletics Championshipsと「デフリンピック」Deaflympicsという2つの大規模スポーツイベントが開催されます。このような大規模イベントは、その国のスポーツの実力を示すとともに、コミュニティや国同士をつなぐ重要な機会となります。
After many months of fanfare, COP26 concluded on November 13 2021 with the nearly 200 Parties agreeing on the Glasgow Climate Pact. But what does this agreement actually entail and how will its contents impact business? Does the GCP meet, exceed or fall short of expectations? Now that its “wheels up” for COP26 delegates, what will the actual market response be (if any)? How will countries turn these promises into action, and what will be the role of the private sector in achieving these targets?
On the morning of Tuesday 22 February, BCCJ Executive Committee Responsible Business taskforce leader Tove Kinooka will sit down with industry leaders to review the key outcomes of COP26, and share takeaways from the private and public sectors.
Moderator: Tove Kinooka | Co-Founder, Global Perspectives K.K. / BCCJ Responsible Business taskforce
About
This “Beyond COP” series of events is being convened by a coalition of international Chambers of Commerce in Japan (ACCJ, ANZCCJ, BCCJ, CCCJ, IJCC) with the aim of promoting understanding of and action on critical climate issues. Pre-COP26, the coalition’s aim was to build awareness and engagement ahead of the conference; the group now moves into review mode, to provide helpful analysis of key conference outcomes, and co-create practical, industry-specific action points for businesses of all sizes.
