CANSEE participated in the networking event for the forty participants of the LEADER Project, the program’s alumni and for representatives of Macedonian companies and FDI’s in Skopje, May 7th, 2015, hosted by Macedonia2025.
Macedonia2025 cofounder, Mr. Mike Zafirovski gave a speech in front of 130 people and handed certificates of appreciation to the representatives of the companies that supported and sponsored this business education program.
Mr. Zafirovski spoke about the great achievement that is the LEADER Project and about the impact it can have on experienced and up and coming business professionals in Macedonia.
