TGIF Lunch - Last Friday

The first TGIF lunch took place here at the Hotel Garbe last Friday. Here are a few pictures.

Roy Whitehouse of WIS International (pictured here) gave an entertaining and informative talk about Data Protection, Grey Markets and Misrepresentation.

The Resident Newspaper has introduced this series of lunches – TGIF (Thank Goodness it is Friday!) which will all be held
here at The Hotel Garbe in Armação de Pêra on the fourth Friday of each month with the exception of July, August and December.

The aim is to bring business people an opportunity to network, as well as the change to hear a lively and informative speaker speaker.
Generally the topics will be biased towards doing business in the Algarve, but in February and September we hope to encourage many of the retired residents of the Algarve to attend.

Next Month
Friday, 23rd February - John Westwood, of Blacktower Financial Management Ltd., will be the speaker and John's talk will be on Equity Release and Home Reversion : 24 euros per person.

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

HOW TO BOOK: e-mail: tgif@portugalresident.com – don’t forget to state how many people you are booking for and their names.
