For CPAAI firms wanting to join the network

In order to support CPAAI association firms in Latin America who are considering joining the MGI Worldwide network, the region held a virtual meeting on 14 May to explain the advantages and process involved in making the move to the network.

Hosted by Regional Director Andrea Pallas, the meeting included a presentation by Clive Bennett, CEO, who then took questions from members across the region, leading to a lively discussion.
