operating margins. With the TFO also on board we will be looking at opportunities
to expand inbound and domestic tourism for the high value end of the market

Looking at strategies to keep you fit, healthy and contributing to your
various businesses. Looking after human capital is just as important as
physical machinery. This will also include a round table on insurance

The theme of the conference is managing change in dynamic times and we
are looking to see if we can get a combination of some of the foremost
