DCH and Aces Europe
Brussels, 11 December — The European capital once again became the meeting point for companies, institutions and international representatives at a new edition of the annual event organised by ACES Europe, in collaboration with DCH – International Organisation of Human Capital Directors. The conference brought together entities from different regions of the world to highlight outstanding initiatives in sport, wellbeing, sustainability and talent management.
A corporate lunch to encourage dialogue and collaboration
The day began with an institutional lunch at an iconic Brussels venue, The Poet, located in the Renaissance Brussels Hotel, which served as the first meeting point for representatives of participating companies and organisations.
During this initial session, a climate of professional exchange was generated, focusing on the advancement of corporate wellbeing, people policies and trends that are shaping the evolution of human capital internationally.
The format, designed to encourage high-value conversations, allowed participants to explore best practices, identify shared challenges, and strengthen relationships between attending organisations, reaffirming DCH’s commitment to promoting an active and collaborative global community.
International recognition in the European Parliament
After the welcome lunch, the delegation moved to the European Parliament, where the official awards ceremony took place. The event, led by ACES Europe, brought together more than 300 attendees from cities, regions and organisations across Europe and America.
Throughout the event, projects promoting sport, social cohesion and citizen well-being were highlighted, consolidating the role of sport as a transformative tool in community and corporate development.
Presentation of the International Healthy Company Certification (EHCA)
One of the highlights of the day was the presentation of the International Healthy Company Certification (EHCA). This distinction recognises organisations that integrate advanced models of well-being, prevention and health in the workplace, accrediting their commitment to a responsible corporate culture focused on the sustainable development of people.
During the ceremony, the growing importance of this certification as an international benchmark for assessing the real impact of corporate health policies was highlighted, and at DCH we emphasised the work of those certified:
- María Elena Juárez Peláez Sanitas Chief People Officer at Sanitas and Bupa Europe and LatinAmerica.
- Mara Porras Martínez, Health and Wellbeing Director Europe & Latam at Sanitas
- Francisco Javier Rojas Horrillo, Director of Wellbeing and Occupational Risk Prevention at CaixaBank
- Teresa Pérez Delgado, Wellbeing Manager at CaixaBank
- Luz Santillana, Director of Talent and Culture at Universidad Europea.
- Clara Isabel Martín, People developmnt and employee experience at Universidad Europea
- Elena Susana Martin Oliet, Responsable PRL, Manager Salud Laboral Safety, Health&Wellbeing at Grupo AXA
A closure marked by international cooperation
The day concluded with the official presentation of flags and awards to the cities, regions and entities being honoured, followed by a group photograph that reflected the spirit of collaboration that characterises this annual gathering.
This event in Brussels reinforces the alliance between DCH and ACES Europe, as well as their joint commitment to promoting corporate wellbeing, excellence in people management and global social impact. Both organisations continue to make progress in creating spaces that foster knowledge sharing and the development of initiatives with international reach.
