ai vper on aboard!!

Welcome! Two global ER champions Vaibhav Khandelwal (AI Vice President ER 04/05) and Petr Skvaril (AI Vice President ER elect 05/07) has spent 5 days, from 31/5-4/6, in Hong Kong followed by 10-day visit to Shanghai .

The objective of their visit is primarily to explore global or regional exchange opportunities in Hong Kong . During the visit in HK, Vaibhav and Petr, together with MC team, visited companies, including Standard Chartered Bank, PwC, ABN AMRO, APCO Asia, Cathay Pacific Airways & Swire Group . In spite of such a tight schedule, they are so kind to organize a 2-hour workshop for our LCEBs educating them the whole idea of @XP and Learning Networks and giving them tips to be a big seller.

In short, Vaibhav and Petr were deeply impressed by the beauty and business potential of HK and the proactiveness of HK @ers. And during the 5 short days, MC team not only learnt a lot from, but also had great fun with them, especially the days visiting Tsim Sha Tsui and the Peak.

Vaibhav and Petr, see you in IC 2005, India.
