𝐀𝐁𝐎𝐔𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐒𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐎𝐍 🙌

And hey, it's not just about the sweat and muscles (although those are definitely a bonus). It's also a fantastic opportunity to expand your network 🕸🕸🕸 and mingle with like-minded professionals in the area, e.g. folks at the Citi Tower, Quayside, and more! 🌇🏙🌇 
So, what's in store for you during our workout session? Get ready for a heart-pumping, calorie-crushing 1-hour HIIT/CrossFit extravaganza suitable for all fitness levels. 🥇🥈🥉 Don't forget to bring plenty of water to stay hydrated, and if you have a yoga mat lying around, feel free to bring it along (totally optional though). 
We've got ~10 regulars outside of Fitfam who don't always sign up on Meetup, so don't be discouraged if you're the first and only one to register. We promise you won't be alone in this fitness adventure! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️ 
So, let's sweat, burn some calories, and have a blast together! Get ready to make those endorphins dance and forge some awesome connections. Sweat & Connect. 💦💦💦

# Gaining Full Visibility of Operations and Carbon Costs Seminar Rising costs, fluctuating delivery schedules, and increasingly complex cross-regional operations—together with ESG requirements such as the EU’s introduction of the Digital Product Passport (DPP)—have made carbon emissions and carbon costs a growing pressure. These factors are continuously eroding the profitability and competitiveness of Hong Kong manufacturers. If companies continue to rely on manual processes and fragmented systems, management will find it difficult to gain a timely and holistic view of both operational and carbon costs, establish effective management practices, and make critical decisions. In this seminar, the Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC), together with Epicor, will focus on new quality productive forces, exploring how enterprises can enhance supply chain transparency and predictability through data-driven management. The session will also demonstrate how to strengthen cost control, stabilise delivery, and address ESG requirements and global competitive challenges.\ Register Here: [LINK](https://campaigns.hkpc.org/gaining-full-visibility-of-operations-and-carbon-costs-1)
