During this event,

ways in which they have made use of their language skills throughout their
careers.

  • Brian Savin of Savin Productions (Solihull) owns
    an audio production company and spent many years writing and producing
    radio commercials for a Geneva
    station.
  • Language Business Champion Angela Maxwell was the Director of
    Marketing for the coffee machine manufacturing company Fracino which marketed and
    distributed their products world-wide. Angela is now the Managing Director
    of the business solutions company
    AcuWomen
    based in Leicestershire.

Following the
morning's inspirational talks the pupils will take part in ‘hands-on' marketing
workshops run by Brian and Angela for which prizes will be awarded to the best
team. Finally, the pupils will have a chance to practice their business
language skills with workshops in French, German and Spanish.
