In my opinion it was a very interesting event for all the participants, which allowed to have a new look at the further development of microfinance. Your choice of Michael as chairman was the best - his knowledge and experience in many areas allowed to discuss latest trends.

I think it was one of the best conferences lately thanks to the chairman and the interest shown by the audience asking questions. I am interested in speaking at future events if the topic gives me possiblilty to add value to the conference.
