Dear colleagues,

We are proudly presenting to you the new format for successful communication, effective interaction and enjoyable relaxation! It is time for us all to take off suits and neckties, to forget about the status updates and to touch base with each other, mingling in an informal way under the Maltese sun.

This idea inspired the Committee and staff members of the World Communication Forum (WCF) to hold a Networking conference on the gorgeous island of Malta from 7th to 11th November, called Comm&Camp – Malta’2012 (www.comm-camp.com). The event would raise a serious challenge to the “usual” conference halls with comfortable chairs and a tone of PPT presentations, going outside the box and putting the emphasis on engaging more in-depth with each other.

During Comm&Camp – Malta’2012 you can get in touch with experienced professionals and talented beginners in the communication industry, associate with CEO-s of major consultancies or creative project managers and discuss with them the latest issues and trends on communications business and future development. In this inspiring atmosphere you will cross borders of age and culture, geography and ideology and together you will make a breakthrough, celebrate success and get ready to conquer new heights.

The carefully selected program combines knight sea battles and professional “communication cocktails” with relevant presentations on profound topics. Among the outstanding speakers will be some of the members of the WCF Coordinating Committee such as Gianni Catalfamo, European Digital Director at Ketchum Pleon; Hiromi Yokoyama, Associate Professor at the University in Tokyo; Mirko Pallera, Co-Founder and Director at Ninja Marketing; Sergey Zverev, Founder and President of CROS PR &PA; Maxim Behar, Chairman Hill&Knowlton Strategies, Czech Republic, CEO&Chairman of the Board M3 Communications Group, Inc. Bulgaria. For more details please, follow the link.

We are convinced that the EC International English language school with offices in U.K. USA, Canada and South Africa will meet the ambitious expectations of all who wish to deepen their knowledge of English language. After this super intensive language course you will for sure gain confidence to speak, make presentations or merely have a nice chat with a peer in English.

We encourage you to book your place now and get the chance to be part of this 3 -day life changing experience. Because this is where you will find yourself reborn, learning with enthusiasm and laughing afresh!

Professional “communication cocktails”, bright sunny days & much more fun is about to be at Malta. :)
