presentation
Hi Sean,
Please find the attached presentation that I
made on friday at the V&A. Last week I was at the V&A from wed. to
fri. putting BASA in the limelight at all levels. The presentation was
attended by no less then 30 people including two from Sweden and two from
Portugal and several from the USA. Makeda Coastan made a fantastic response to
my presentation praising BASA as a leader and sighting its important role.
Colin Prescod chaired the session.
I am afraid 3 full days of
networking have taken their toll, especially since I have not been that great
recently. I am trying to rest up this weekend and will hopefully make it in on
monday. Sean thanks for getting the newsletter
out.
regards
Cliff
