The Rise of Smart CIties: A Real Estate Perspective
| 17 Sept 2020 | 4 PM JKT / 10 AM BST | RSVP HERE

Speakers:
Jeremy Kelly, Lead Director - Global Research at JLL
Rama Raditya, Founder & CEO Qlue

We hear so much about smart cities. The number of governments across the globe declaring their intention of make their city ‘smart’ is staggering. Equally, there is a huge amount of hype and heightened expectation about the roll out, characteristics and benefits of smart city solutions.

We would like to invite you to our webinar “The Rise of Smart Cities: A Real Estate Perspective” where we will explore the practical opportunities and challenges of creating a smart city, drawing on the experience of several case studies across the globe.

Our aim is to throw fresh light on the role that the real estate industry can play in creating truly scalable and successful smart city solutions, and to open the conversation about the potential role of smart cities in Indonesia.
BritCham Marketing Information Webinar: Keeping Your People Safe in an Uncertain World - Global 1st Tech
BritCham Marketing Information Webinar: Keeping Your People Safe in an Uncertain World - Global 1st Tech
| 30 Sept 2020 | 4 PM JKT / 10 AM BST | RSVP HERE

Speaker:
Martin Hogan, Founder & CEO of Safe Citizens

Relying on proprietary groundbreaking, global first tech, Safe-Citizens is the next gen. Public safety platform that enables Emergency Services or Enterprise Security Staff to better alert ‘at risk’ citizens and staff/students, manage incident sites, all remotely, all in real time and all without violating citizens’ privacy, based entirely on their location and proximity to danger.

The greatest limitations to current safety alert technology is that it is simply past its ‘sell by’ date. SMS messaging is character-limited, outmoded, easily contended, (often arrives late) and has been compromised. There is also no scope for further feature development.

Safe-Citizens platform is 100% digital, born in the cloud, secure, robust and consistent with future infrastructure investment.

All cities and regions are in the process of investing further in strengthening their digital estates, in speed and access, not in telephony (GSM), resulting in SMS becoming ever-more outdated, in turn, exposing citizens and visitors alike to ever-aging technology never designed for the job it is being asked to do. It is time to move on.

The Safe-Citizens platform is the future of public safety.

COVID 19 has prompted many expats to re-evaluate whether to continue living abroad. For those looking to return to the UK, an unexpected move can be a challenging time with lots to consider. In these circumstances, personal finances can often find themselves low on the priority list. However any return to the UK - even if just one family member heads back - could create unexpected tax bills.

This webinar will explain how the UK tax system could impact your finances, highlight the steps you can take to avoid paying more tax than you need to and share some practical advice from those who have already returned.

What can you expect to learn from this Webinar?
  • The trigger points that make you UK resident for tax purposes
  • Common mistakes that can expose you to tax – even before you arrive home
  • Key things to consider before leaving
  • Some tax-efficient investment strategies you can adopt once in the UK
  • Real life experiences from expats who have returned home
There will also be plenty of opportunity for Q&A.

RSVP:

Please feel free to forward this invitation to a friend, colleague or family member if you feel it would be of interest to them. We look forward to you joining the webinar.
