Comments : A two and a half year project for Successful Events, from  preparation of the Bid document and securing of financial back up through sponsorships to presentation of the final audited accounts.  A global representation of  potential investors  was attracted to the conference and the country.   A dinner in the working wine cellar at Lourensford Wine Estate in Somerset West was an unforgettable experience for local and international delegates and a particular highlight of the conference.  A benchmark for ICGN Conferences in the future was created in South Africa.
