The new year has just begun and we already have many plans and ideas to connect with each other, share our knowledge, and strengthen our network. Let’s plan on sharing some fantastic moments during our upcoming conferences in 2024. Everything is in place for the GGI Practice Group Global Chairs meeting in Zurich at the beginning of February, and preparations are in full swing for the GGI European Regional Conference in Malta this coming April. Our events are always a fabulous opportunity to enjoy the local hospitality and experience the beauty of the locale, while at the same time learning from each other, discovering potential synergies, and deepening relationships.
GGI members, please take advantage of the opportunity to share your expertise in your specific field or practice via our newsletters. Publishing in our FYI Newsletters is a great way to showcase your prowess with clients and colleagues. Several FYI Newsletters still have capacity for further articles in their Spring 2024 issues, we would love to hear from you about your topic ideas.
