马青拼经济小组再主办连锁经商拼经济研讨会

MCA Youth Economic Task Force

“Franchise entrepreneurship during economic recovery” Seminar and Franchise Opportunities sessions

After the highly successful franchise seminar and franchise opportunities session held in May 2009 at the same venue, and due to overwhelming requests by seminar participants and exhibitors to hold another similar event, we are proud to announce that we shall be co-organising the event themed “Franchise entrepreneurship during economic recovery” jointly with MCA National Youth, through their Special Economic Task Force.

Date of Event: Saturday, 16th January 2010
Time: 8:30am to 6:00pm
Venue: Auditorium & Dewan San Choon, Wisma MCA, Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
The aim of the event is two fold, firstly to provide the attending public an in-depth understanding on franchising and that investing in a franchise is a better alternative than starting business on their own or finding employment especially to take advantage of the recovering economy.

Secondly, with a captive audience of an estimated attendance of more than 1,000 participants in the Seminar plus many more walk-in attendees, it provides a golden opportunity for Franchisors/Licensors to showcase their franchise offerings. The profile of the participants is multi-racial, age group of between 18 to 50 years, retrenched or displaced workers, mainly people looking for business opportunities etc.

This major franchising event will be the biggest economic event to be organized by MCA National Youth in 2010 with its aims of attracting and guiding the youths to the right path in franchising which offers many opportunities. We hope this franchise seminar and franchise opportunities sessions will be the first step to milestone for all our youths out there by offering what are in store in the year 2010.
