Arcelik, parent company to leading home appliance brands including Beko and 
Grundig, is challenging the traditional sustainability model that shapes so 
many consumer brands today. During his keynote speech at IFA Berlin on Friday 
2nd September, Arcelik CEO Hakan Bulgurlu will call on industry leaders to 
consider how their companies are impacting the environment, in a speech that 
draws on his experience as a CEO and APPLiA President.

Tackling the subject of technological advancements and sustainability, Hakan 
Bulgurlu, will deliver a speech that aims to reshape how companies think about 
their environmental impact. Focusing on the notion of 'Richer People' on a 
'Poorer Planet', he will explore the idea that some of the solutions unveiled 
by industries to reduce their impact on the planet in fact result in increased 
demand and consumption, leading to greater environmental damage.

Arcelik brands Beko and Grundig will be exhibiting at IFA in the Household 
Appliances section in Hall 3.1.
