Fairs: a networking place

Hi Friendos,

A networking opportunity arose at the infotech at the Swami Vivekananda Internation Conventional Center (SVICC). The ICT fair is organised by the National Computer board: it was a chance for businesses to showcase emerging technologies as well as recruiting potential employees.

That's me on the left.

LIVECOMM Solutions did not represent any company at this fair but it was a good opening to get in contact with prospective clients. The most interesting booths were the forerunners of ICT in Mauritius; Emtel, Samsung and Orange as well as major distributors such as Cash & Carry.


From a PR Consultancy perspective, a fair can materialise into tangible clients and first impressions is everything: you need to be able to represent the company and yourself as a professional.
Unfortunately, i was not on the other side of the fair i.e to represent the company or a client. Better luck next time.
