UK Week 5 - Preview


The Russians are coming.....

Jacqui and I prepared for the week ahead by travelling into Central London yesterday. In Trafalgar Square, thousands were celebrating the Russia Winter Festival. After a week in London, it all makes sense really.

This next week though IS an important few days. Apart from the upcoming presentation to the NZTE UK Beachhead Advisory Board on Tuesday, we have meetings with Microsoft UK and others best left un-named at present. It is one of those weeks.

It is a little obvious to say, but for many people in New Zealand, this is the first day back at work after the Christmas - New Year break. I guess that the Business Breakfast team at TVNZ are still…. well, still having breakfast. But for the rest of New Zealand, I hope the wheels of commerce have started turning once more by the time this blog is posted.

Direct engagement with NZ partners will be good. There is a lot to catch up on.
