EuRApean June 2017
The 19th EuRA International Relocation Congress took place in Warsaw and it was a pleasure to have the EuRA family back together again. Predictably there was a lot of discussion on the geopolitical events that have reshaped our world since we all met in Malta and will continue to change the landscape of our industry before we meet again in Dubrovnik.
I would like to draw your attention to the report on our latest joint research initiative with our colleagues at the Canadian Employee Relocation Council. Finally I’d like to highlight our expanded networking programme for the coming year. Dubai, Chicago, and Dubrovnik will all be opportunities to build our networks, consolidate business and enjoy the diversity of our truly global industry.

Finally, we are really looking forward to welcoming our 650+ delegates to the great city of Warsaw for a week of inspiration, new ideas and some great networking - oh and a fantastic party or two!
EuRApean November 2016
In my last editorial I talked about the looming prospect of the UK referendum on the EU. In all honesty I didn’t believe that the UK would vote to leave, but like many people feared the worst which was confirmed on that sunny June morning.
Backed up by an outstanding group of talented and loyal consultants focussed on our different spheres of operation from research and education, to quality, conferencing and networking, not to mention our 500 amazing members across the world, we came to the conclusion that it’s not where we are that matters, but who we are.

“May you live in interesting times” the Chinese curse says. With the EU facing the biggest vote of confidence, or not in decades, what will be the impact of a Brexit should the worst case come to pass? One thing is for sure, the clients of the mobility industry in Europe will be looking to us for guidance and a way to continue doing seamless business with the bloc.
