BCC's annual conference is the largest gathering of our family. In many ways, it is the most important event in our calendar. As one delegate said: 'These conferences give an impetus in our journey to our destiny.' This issue of The BCC International carries a full report of the Athens conference.
We also feature an extraordinary follow-up conference that took place in London a few days after the Athens conference. This meeting was a pure expression of the 'culture and manifested that it is 'happening'.
The growth of BCC in material terms continues apace. We record the opening of BCC Cameroon and the introduction of the Expatriate Services Department. The Americas, have great potential for BCC and we review our progress in that part of the world through the eyes of Patrick Lynch. We also welcome the new Central, Regional, Country and Branch profit committees which are already 'on with '83'.'
This year could hardly have had a more auspicious start. If the feelings and energy from recent conferences can be maintained, '83' will be a very fulfilling year indeed.
