Don’t miss out: reserve your space in our Autumn 2013 issue today!

Make sure you’re in front of the decision-makers responsible for relocating employees and their families by advertising alongside one of the topical features in our Autumn 2013 issue (out mid September).

This issue will have a special focus on the booming international oil and gas sectors. Ever-growing energy demand is creating new opportunities in traditional locations, while the extraction of newfound energy sources, including shale gas, is developing fast and in new destinations, exacerbating already serious skills shortages. We ask where the latest energy hotspots are,  and find out how HR and relocation experts are working together to solve the talent pipeline problem.

We’ll also be launching the Re:locate Awards 2013/14, so book your space in the magazine and on our leading international website, www.relocatemagazine.com, and ensure you’re part of the drive to raise our industry’s profile and support excellence in relocation. To discuss sponsor and supporter opportunities, call Chris on +44 (0)1892 891334, or email chris@relocatemagazine.com

Other editorial features:

• USA focus – Following on from the well-received USA coverage in our Autumn 2012 edition, and reflecting Re:locate’s role as media partner for the prestigious Worldwide ERC Global Workforce Symposium (Dallas, 23–25 October), we consider the USA’s enduring appeal as a relocation destination. We also find out where US companies are sending their assignees, and why

• Emerging markets – Often the most critical for companies seeking global growth, emerging markets are also the most challenging for relocation. As the range of destinations for international assignees continues to widen, we bring readers the latest on relocation hotspots in emerging markets worldwide

• Tools for international success – For those who want to push global mobility to the forefront of business decision-making, tools for the three major applications of self-selection, assignment decisions and intercultural competence development can be invaluable. We investigate the range available

• Currency issues for international assignees – Dealing with currency-related matters is an essential, but often overlooked, aspect of any international assignment, and an area in which many assignees will need advice. We explain the terminology and look at some of the useful services, such as multi-currency accounts, that are available to help

• Business travel – With global business travel on the increase, we consider innovations in a variety of fields – including accommodation, credit cards, health, and technology – that can help to make life simpler for business travellers and those managing them

• Serviced accommodation – The 2013 edition of the Global Serviced Apartments Industry Report shows that demand for serviced apartments is growing faster than new supply is coming on stream, and little progress is being made towards the standardisation demanded by corporate customers. We investigate developments and trends affecting relocation, and report from the inaugural Serviced Apartment Summit

• Education – We look at how international schools around the world are preparing future global leaders, and how the UK is trying, through exam reform, to compete with top-performing countries in the education stakes. We also consider the shifting focus of higher education; while UK students are more likely to study abroad than ever before, overseas students are heading in this direction for a world-beating education, and the US’s higher education sector continues to be a magnet for students from around the world

• Eldercare – Increasing life expectancy means that many relocatees have responsibilities towards elderly relatives, and many more are likely to do so in future. This may impact on a family’s willingness to relocate in the first place, or contribute to assignment failure. We look at how companies can support assignees relocating with elderly dependants
