Through three distinct exhibitions, InterMET, InterFLOOD and InterAIR, Asia Climate Forum has provided a focal point for the industry in Asia since the first edition in 2014.
Michael Wilton, General Manager and Director of MMI Asia Pte. Ltd says, "We are proud to announce the acquisition of the Asia Climate Forum and commit to investing in the show and further the cause of resolving climate issues in the world. We thank the MGV team for the excellent work on the event since its inception, and look forward to working together with them for future editions of ACF."
MMI Asia Group Project Director, Julia Kwan, explains: "MMI Asia is delighted to be working on the Asia Climate Forum. It is addressing some of the most important subjects that the industry, governments and society have to tackle. The event already provides the means for the industry to enhance, develop and deploy world leading solutions, technologies, and best practices in Southeast Asia. We are looking forward to further enhancing ACF and helping to contribute to the advancement of the sector's capabilities."
Kwan continues; "The recent COP26 meetings highlighted a global effort to address this crisis - international collaboration and partnerships are critical to establish plans, and to take action against the consequences of climate change. Not least the Singapore government demonstrating the urgency to tackle Singapore's climate strategy in global warming and rising sea-levels."
The previous organizers MGV will continue to work on the event as consultants to MMI Asia, to ensure a smooth transition and consistency for the show and its stakeholders.
Tony Stephenson of MGV, and former Event Director of ACF, says: "There is clearly a need for a strong regional meteorology, flood and air quality show in Southeast Asia, and it's now time for us to pass the baton to a major organiser such as MMI with the resources to continue developing the event. We're sure that the new ownership will be highly positive for the long-term future of ACF, and we're grateful to all the loyal supporters, sponsors and exhibitors who have been with us for the past eight years; we look forward to continuing to work with them as well as MMI in future."

Global X ETFs: Valuations, Fundamentals and Quality Key to Portfolio Positioning in 2022
Updated guidance and sentiments from the US Federal Reserve on inflation expectations and the speed and trajectory of tapering and interest rate increases are likely to dominate sentiment in equity and fixed income markets. Inflation is likely to remain elevated until mid-2022 while supply chains normalize.
The Omicron variant adds a new wrinkle in the fight to control the virus, and may dominate market sentiment in the near term. The risk associated with Omicron may help dampen the demand-driven portion of inflation while exacerbating supply chain challenges.
Jon Maier, Chief Investment Officer, Global X ETFs said: "Income investors should be prepared for higher rates and inflation, a scenario that makes lower duration assets and real assets more attractive. Equity markets will likely be more selective in 2022 with a focus on valuations, fundamentals and quality."
Jay Jacobs, Head of Research & Strategy at Global X ETFs, commented: "Spurred by rising labor costs and disruptive supply chains, disruptive industries such as robotics and AI could reach an inflection point in 2022. At the same time, the emergence of the metaverse and a new generation of consumers with distinct preferences are rapidly changing the way we live, spend, travel and the demand for immersive experiences via the digital economy."
Global X ETFs' landmark research report Charting Disruption ( https://tinyurl.com/2p87w2mu ) seeks to help navigate this landscape of accelerating change. The ETF provider has identified what it believes are among the most critical developments for 2022 and beyond. The identified themes present where the accelerated long-term investment opportunities lie.
The following key insights emerged:
-- Robotics & AI: The industrial robotics industry is set to more than double from 2020 to 2030, from $16 billion to $37 billion, as companies look to accelerate automation in manufacturing and logistics.
-- Blockchain: Digital currencies* could more than triple in market capitalization by 2030, reaching $10 trillion, as adoption broadens.
-- Mobility: The number of EV charging stations could increase more than 7x due to the implementation of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, addressing two of consumers' top three hesitations about EVs: concerns about range and the hassle of charging.
-- Digital Economy: Today's relatively niche market for augmented reality, virtual reality and mixed reality products could grow 9.6x to over $296 billion by the end of 2024, helped by growing use cases, content and technological advancements.
