TESTIMONIALS FROM THE ATTENDEES OF THE 18th WORLD BUSINESS CONGRESS OF THE IMDA, TBILISI, GEORGIA, JULY 1st THROUGH 5th, 2009

 

I recently gave a paper at the Annual Conference of the International Management Development Association in Tbilisi, Georgia. There I met many fellow academics from 33 different countries and made many beneficial contacts for future collaborative research. It was one of the best conferences that I have attended in my academic career stimulating academically, yet enjoyable and fun.

I want to express my deepest gratitude for organizing and hosting an event like World Congress in Tbilisi. It was an incredible experience and opportunity to meet so many interesting people and to share ideas.

Thank you!

I just wanted to send you a quick thank you e-mail for the great

IMDA conference welcome you showed myself and Richard.

It was a truly fantastic event and it was a nice change to see such

great networking done at an academic conference. 

 

I am very sure that we will be attending again next year, so please

keep us informed on the location etc. I hope that perhaps we may also

be able to have a slot to talk about cases at the conference next year

as well? Perhaps we can co-ordinate this nearer the time.

 

Many thanks again and please do keep in touch

Congratulations to you and probably all of us who have worked very hard to make the Eighteenth World Business Congress in Georgia an exhilarating experience that also witnessed an established network with International Black Sea University.  The food menu in Georgia has been impressive!  Wish that now you enjoy the recess at the end of the Congress.

Gents--just  quick round of thanks for all your efforts in making Tbilisi a success. It is good to get back to globe-trotting again. The wine was excellent, as was the company! Cheers

Dear Erdener

I have to take the opportunity to say hello and thank you and colleagues at IMDA for an absolutely fabulous conference in Tbilisi.  Hazel and I very much enjoyed being able to participate in the sessions as well as the obvious delights of the evening entertainments and trips.  It made such a great change from our usual experience as exhibitors that we are determined we will repeat it next year.

With very best wishes to you and Glynis
