TGIF lunches

The Resident Newspaper is introducing a series of lunches – TGIF (Thank Goodness it is Friday!) which will all be held here at The Hotel Garbe in Armação de Pêra.

Here are the details:-

Come and join us at the first of a series of lunches aimed at you, the business person. You will have the opportunity to network with other local business people. You will learn about issues which affect the way in which you do business. You will meet those running associations which may help you in your day to day business dealings.

We are starting this year with an issue which affects all those in business, those running associations and indeed us as individuals (shouldn't we know how much information can be retained by others about us?).

DATA PROTECTION: BEING AWARE OF YOUR OBLIGATIONS

As we start a new year, one of our resolutions should be to ensure that we know how the Data Protection Act affects us.

Do you know what the law says about Data Protection and the type of company you are running or the type of service you are offering?

What do you know about the growth in the Grey Market – how will this affect you and your company?

Roy Whitehouse of WIS International will talk about Data Protection, Grey Markets and Misrepresentation.

WHEN: FRIDAY JANUARY 26, 2007 – 12.15pm for 1pm Lunch

WHERE: HOTEL GARBE, ARMAÇÃO DE PÊRA

PRICE: 24 euros
