For many the whole point of business is to move money from one country or region to another, not to shuffle it between the usual suspects within a city scene. The business that I worked in back in the early 90's did most of its work in Switzerland, and my own consultancy found a much more receptive and less conservative client base outside of Birmingham. Now much of my work is with colleagues in Asia, rather than the UK. Here's to miscegenation, rather than inbreeding!

Especially John, very useful chat sir. The offending release has been recoiled and amended. It had not been taken to any media and didn't really represent what we were after. Your initial feedback has pointed out why this was the wrong approach. Much better to come form you all so again thank you. The idea of the promotion was to open up a profile performance spot at the ceremony to get some really creative ideas to excite the crowd at the reception. The winners here would not be on the event programme but would be part of the pre show entertainment. John and I have talked through a few ideas, one in particular, and there are some really exciting prospects out there. Please, please, please forget the letter X and the word Factor. A total misrepresentation and not how we want to position the ceremony. As always, if any of you want to contact me about this the bat phone is always open (0121) 200 0910. Thanks again, Ed Hey all, thanks for your feedback on our comp. Especially John, very useful chat sir.
