According to Netshitenzhe, the South African story deserves more objective attention internationally.
Representatives from the BBC, CNBC Europe, CNN International, al-Jazeera International, The Wall Street Journal, Time Magazine and other important media players will be in Johannesburg, 20 - 21 September. The two-day conference will focus on leading business decision-makers, government officials and communications professionals and hopes to create a roadmap for future successful media relations.
The forum will discuss a variety of issues, such as how important the South African story is internationally and why international communications matter to the economic development of South Africa.
A series of keynote speeches plus four workshops will try to pioneer a dialogue between those who shape South Africa's image abroad and the South Africans who have the power to change the future for the better by the way they communicate the events taking place inside their country and their companies.
