“I believe that membership in the UN Global Compact network is an even more serious and significant responsibility, which is fully consistent with the vision and development vector of our company. I believe that membership of the Network will allow us to be fully informed about the steps and progress made in the implementation of the 2030 Agenda, which, in turn, will allow us to make a valuable contribution to creating a better and more desirable world. I also think that ongoing activities to raise awareness of the Global Development Goals (SDGs) among local companies will significantly help companies to better understand their role in this area, which will further increase their motivation and commitment to create a healthy, sustainable environment that meets international standards as a local level, and throughout the region or country ”, - senior consultant Natia Rukhadze.

Tinatin Rukhadze, General Director of ACT won the prestigious Veuve Clicquot Business Woman Award! Veuve Clicquot Business Woman Award is the first international competition in history for business women and is held annually in 32 countries around the world. Since 1972, there have been awarded women, who made significant contribution to the development of global economy and business. Veuve Clicquot Business Woman Award serves as kind of a benchmark, while being source of inspiration and impetus for new generation business leaders. The competition, which is intended for active and busy women, gains extra significance because of its historical roots – it is named in honor of Madam Clicquot, who became a widow at the age of 27 and undertook his husband’s legacy – champagne business, which managed to survive during The Napoleonic Wars and brutal revolutions in Europe, and even in unfair competitive environment managed to create strong brand, as well as stereotype of a strong woman. Tinatin Rukhadze will be the brand ambassador throughout the year 2019. In addition, a vine named after her will be planted in France and a champagne will be bottled in honor of her.
