Embracing 2024

Hi,

Most of us can easily sense great opportunities coming in this 2024. Just like Portoro’s founder and creative director Nathalie Küpfer Henares, she bade farewell to the previous year with joyful trip in Paris and the Swiss Alps with her husband Atom, and simultaneously recharged themselves for the year to come—destined for inspiration, well-being, and the harmonious dance of the soul. For Tatler she recalled their memorable trip—the places visited, the sumptuous specialities and delicacies enjoyed, and the memories made.

Trends are constantly evolving, hence there is a constant need for the most updated data to understand the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. It’s no different for the watch industry.

Tatler GMT is conducting a survey on global trends in watches.

Micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) are hailed as “the backbone of the Asia-Pacific region’s economy” by The Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific hails m, citing their resilient nature and ability to create jobs and drive innovation in domestic markets. Recognising the importance of MSMEs in creating a healthy economy, the forward-thinking business leaders on Asia’s Most Influential have made it their mission to champion local businesses, which account for 97 percent of all enterprises in the region. Through their associations or agencies, these MSME advocates provide what businesses need the most: support via programmes and mentorship, including the tools to digitise operations as well as access to larger markets and funding, all of which are needed by enterprises to flourish.
