Dear Team,
Recent media coverage has revealed that our competitors have lower costs. It is important that we get back to our suppliers to see il they can secure a better component pnce for the next version of our NanoVac range Let's also consider the energy costs of our labs, I'm mindful that costs are rising due to investment in renewable power-1 want us to negotiate with our energy supplier to get a better deal.
I've also been reading reports on social responsibility and sustainability and I'd like a lull review of the biodegradability of the packaging of all our products- we don't want media attention for being a technology company that wastes natural resources.
Our employment regulations also need revisiting as there have been changes to pension rules and paternity/maternity rights for workers and I want us to be aware of these
Finally, regarding the staff conference I want to launch a new staff development programme, which aims to identify and develop the rising stars in our business People development should be a key priority in our next annual plan.
Thanks. Nastya."
