Tourism boss for IMFSA 2010 panel

Mosola is CEO of SA Tourism and is acting for Yvonne Johnston who recently resigned from the IMC, the custodian of Brand South Africa.

He will sit on a panel to be chaired by renowned radio personality John Perlman and which will discuss the question whether 2010 will end up as a lost opportunity for South Africa. Their fellow-panelists will be Paul Charles, director of communications at Virgin Atlantic and John Chiahemen, editor of the Reuters Africa website.

“This will be an opportunity for other communicators to meet the new head of the IMC, which plays such a vital role as the country approaches 2010”, says Fergal Parkinson, organiser of the conference.

Influential editors and journalists from around the world will focus on the international coverage of South Africa as well as a discussing an effective media strategy for the country.

“This makes Mosola's participation so much more vital,” said Parkinson.
