13. Emirates Global Aluminium, in collaboration with Crown and
Canpack, has launched 'Every Can Counts,' a campaign to boost
aluminium drink can recycling, contributing to the circular
economy and reducing emissions. Debuting at COP28, the UAE
becomes the third non-European entity to join this global
initiative, now active in 21 countries, aiming to enhance
recycling rates, particularly for out-of-home consumption.
In the UAE, where annual aluminium can consumption reaches
660 million but only a third are recycled, the campaign seeks to
address this gap. Recycling aluminium is significantly more
energy-efficient, requiring 95% less energy than producing new
aluminium and drastically cutting greenhouse gas emissions.
The initiative supports the ambitious target of achieving at least
80% recycling by 2030 and nearly 100% by 2050, as set by UAE
COP28 Presidency and industry leaders. Through innovative
means like QR-coded backpacks worn by recycling
ambassadors, 'Every Can Counts' emphasizes aluminium's role
in sustainable packaging and its potential to save 60 million
tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions yearly.

17. As Ramadan is approaching, businesses are preparing for a
competitive season with increased media spending. Vamp's
influencer marketing strategies offer a roadmap to capitalize on
this period for growth. Key insights reveal the importance of
engaging the 1.9 billion Muslims celebrating Ramadan, a time
marked by significant increases in online spending and social
media engagement, especially in the MENA region. Brands
should focus on authenticity, leveraging influencers to deliver
content that aligns with consumers' values and the communal
spirit of Ramadan.
Strategically tapping into trends and aligning campaign timings
with Ramadan's phases can set brands apart. Emphasizing
mobile-first content, such as short-form videos on popular
platforms like TikTok, and engaging with nano to mid-sized
creators for targeted messaging, can enhance relevance and
authenticity. Additionally, utilizing social search helps tailor
content to consumer trends and behaviors, optimizing
influencer marketing efforts for better visibility and

18. Snapchat's new research underscores the growth potential in
Saudi Arabia, where technological advancements are reshaping
retail. The platform, boasting 800 million monthly users, seeks to
capitalize on this, particularly in regions like Saudi Arabia, where
per-user revenue trails behind the U.S.
In collaboration with Kearney, Snapchat's report reveals that
while Saudi consumers rapidly adopt digital shopping methods,
retailers may not be keeping pace. Social media, especially
platforms like Snapchat, emerges as a significant avenue for
product discovery, second only to search engines. However, the
report suggests retailers have yet to fully harness the power of
social and messaging apps for brand engagement.
Highlighting the centrality of social media in product discovery,
the research presents a valuable opportunity for brands to
strengthen their digital presence. For Snapchat, this presents a
chance to drive engagement and increase revenue in a market
ripe for digital transformation.
