The 9th British Alumni Society (BAS) Annual General Meeting took place on 18 December at the British Ambassador’s Residence, organised by BAS and the British Embassy.
More than 50 BAS members from all around Poland gathered to take part in the meeting and listen to guest speaker and chair of the renowned think tank demosEuropa, Pawel Swieboda, give his views on Poland’s Presidency of the EU in 2011. Mr Swieboda’s interesting speech provoked a lively discussion and some provocative questions and the debate continued during a post-meeting reception hosted by the Ambassador.

The formal part of the meeting reported on the many successful projects conducted over the last year, including the Mentoring Workshop and the PPP conference in the Sejm and ambitious activity planned for the coming year (view presentation).
BAS said thank you to outgoing BAS management and, in the ballot that followed, decided to re-install Sylweter Janik as its President. Several new members were elected to the BAS Management Board and the Reviewing committee. Profiles of BAS Board members shall be presented shortly on our page.
There was time for networking and for the Gifts giveaway game, aka the Right Family Story.
