We would like to announce a panel discussion and cocktail reception on the 1st May - from 6pm to 8pm where we will host guests who are attending the Asian Development Bank annual meeting that will be taking place in Tbilisi over the Easter weekend. The US Director of Asian Development Bank, Chantale Wong will be in attendance and will give remarks. We will also have guests from US Corporations, who are attending the conference.
