Secondly we would like to wish all of customers, vendors and friends all the best in 2010.

Training programs: Looking to provide memorable breakout sessions and training programs? Look no further that the GAPSB team. One of the ways we can provide unbeatable value is our "Keynar"programs. Our speakers have combined their keynote programs with a supportive breakout session. We package this combination to reduce travel expenses, give you greater impact during and after your event and the best part is it all avaialable at a reduced fee compared to separate purchases.
Comedians : Comic relief without the headaches. Many of you know the challenges of working with comedians. We take the stress out of the equation. Our comedians know corporate audiences and know how to provide just the right amount of humor without hurting anyone. They leave the "night club" act at the night club and keep their programs clean and respectable so you don't have to worry.
Buyer alert : Beware of the low price comedian or part timer. Low price often means little or no experience and investing a bit more can save your whole event from disaster.
