Recent DSA Seminar a Resounding Success

On 16 June, we made a big leap forward in enhancing the appeal of DSA seminars.  This was an event, suggested and sponsored by DSA Suppliers, organised by Ian Morgan of Meridian MMi, and hosted by DSA Supplier Committee chairman, Lars Tewes.  Amongst the 85 participants, 26 Supplier members attended the seminar and many took the opportunity to exhibit.

This seminar, generously hosted by Amway at their new Flagship Centre in central London (pictured right), proved to be huge success.  Unsurprisingly, we are already receiving requests for this type of event to be repeated next year.
