Mixer with Business
Journalists – Event Highlights
On Wednesday, March 22, AmCham Macedo-
nia in cooperation with the Macedonian Institute
for Media (MIM), organized a Mixer with Business
Journalists.
More than 40 member company leaders, cor-
porate communications professionals and working
journalists had an opportunity to expand their social
and professional network. MIM’s Director, Biljana
Petkovska, noted the challenge of gaining interest
in and space for business issues, given the pro-
tracted political crisis in the country, but said there
was a need for greater links between journalists
and business people. AmCham’s Executive Direc-
tor, Michelle Osmanli, presented AmCham’s 2016-
2018 advocacy priorities and said that leading
companies had an interest in better informing and
raising expectations of the general public on appropriate
business conduct.
Many attendees expressed the hope that increased
cooperation between the two organizations will increase
knowledge exchange and other mutually-beneficial results
throughout the year.
