|Ongoing Forum |Crans Montana Forum :Africa -The Crossroads of the South-South Cooperation

tape — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 14:31:41 +0000

What :The Crans Montana Forum is an International Organization established in 1986.The objective of the organisation is to foster the best practices and ensure a global dialogue among top public administrators and business leaders.

What makes this forum different from similar high level networking events :
-The participation is on personal invitation.
-In order to assure the confidentiality of discussions and guarantee the free speech that our high level Participants deserve, the Crans Montana Forum does not deliver Press Accreditations. The only exception will be considered when journalists partake in a high-level national delegation as legitimate members.
-The number of participants is drastically limited and the Forum attentively and professionally oversees the coherence of each group. No “club of the happy few” as in other Organisations. Once the Participant is admitted, he is a true Participant!
-The intimate and friendly atmosphere of the Crans Montana Forum, free from the restraints of official protocol, provides the Participants with the best opportunity to make high-level and direct contacts with the interlocutors of their choice.
-The encounters between government personalities and their interlocutors are not limited to any specific set agenda, allowing freedom of expression and spontaneity.
-The events scheduled throughout the Crans Montana Forum aim at creating directly and concretely immediate opportunities for international co-operation.
-The business world is represented by key decision makers from both large and small-to-medium sized enterprises.
-The Crans Montana Forum has proved to be valuable for networking opportunities and for gaining strategic advantages.

When: March 7-10 2012
