Power Reporting 2009 was a great success. More people than ever attended, arriving from around Africa. Every talk, debate and course was full.


Just some of your comments:


"It was an opportunity to meet people and a get a feel for the industry in Africa and the rest of the world. "

"Excellent work." "Good stuff." "I think it was superb." "It's brilliant."

"Year after year the event is the best"

Several of the speakers provided us with handouts and tipsheets that can be found in the Toolkit.
