5. Other Suggestions The present topic of "Brand marketing strategy for SMEs" is highly relevant in the current global economy. Professors presented excellent lectures but I would love to listen or get advice from industry professionals as well. I found that this program is very interesting and useful for my organization and it also enhances my knowledge in branding especially for the SMEs. The organizer is also very helpful and friendly. I do enjoy the whole session and hope there will be more programs like this in the future. Thank you. It was quite well organized and professional. I appreciate your kind effort and preparation. Thank you very much for everything. This kind of program should be on a continuous basis which will help TPOs of different countries to become more equipped and effective for the business communities and also to face economic crisis in robust ways in our respective countries. It is better to extend the program for at least 5 days.
