Business Luncheon / Networking
|
Please Note:
We believe that the seminar on the second day will provide more opportunity for people to meet and mingle with others with similar ideas if we added a Luncheon. We also feel that the luncheon gives a unique opportunity to meet and network with leading politicians, entrepreneurs, and business leaders from all over the world. Just to cover our cost we have added a nominal fee of $30 per person for the luncheon. We will collect this when you register for the Business forum during the Registration on arrival. There will be a separate booth for Business forum registration adjacent to the General Registration booth and manned by Forum members.
