Represented by Dr George Alexandridis, Lecturer in Finance at the ICMA Centre and Verity Altomare, Marketing Assistant; it was the first time that the ICMA Centre had attended a British Council fair. Almost 50 institutions from the UK attended the event and over the course of the weekend, the ICMA Centre was inundated by requests of prospective undergraduate and postgraduate students, keen to learn more about the ICMA Centre and what it can offer. The fair proved to be extremely beneficial and the ICMA Centre plans to attend similar events in the future.
