ATIC IS BACK!

ASIA TRADER & INVESTOR CONVENTION (ATIC) IS COMING SOON! The annual event that will be held for the 5th times at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre from 2 – 3 April 2011. For those who do not know, ATIC is an exciting platform for Asia’s local investors and traders to gather in selected cities to learn and be educated about the latest products and services offered by local and international exchanges, brokerage firms, information service vendors and other financial service providers.

Having attended the ATIC last year, I will say the ATIC last year was a successful event. At the registering counter outside, I was given many brochure and some financial magazine (of course, not the lastest edition). There were very large crowd turnout. There were a few workshops that were conducted at the same times. So one will definitely had to choose which workshop to attend as a person cannot be at two places at the same time.

After checking the programs schedule this year, I noticed that the number of programs had been reduced significantly. Maybe that will solve the headache of choosing which workshop to attend. I cannot help but also that the number of speaker also reduced significantly. High profile speaker such as Alan Hull, Brent Penfold, Don Schellenberg and a few more seem to be missing from the list. Seem to me the event were popular with the crowd but not with the speakers. If you are interested to learn more, I suggest that you should attend the ATIC this year. There is no telling what the ATIC next year will be......

So let check the speakers list for ATIC 2011. This time the remarkable speakers feature Daryl Guppy, Alan Oliver, Jim Berg, Benny Lee, Dar Wong, G M Teoh, Gavin Tee, Mark Laudi, Dr. Nazri Khan, Fred KH Tam and Ho Chin Soon. Ticket for workshop will be available from the prices of RM70 to RM200. However, there will be early bird special discount prices if ticket are bought before 2011-03-15. For those interested, buy your ticket now!
