Vox pops from CPA Congress Adelaide, South Australia

November 17, 2009

In the midst of Adelaide’s first official heat wave in November, with scorching temperatures hovering around 40 degrees CPA Congress forged ahead last week at the Adelaide Convention Centre in South Australia.

Despite the temperatures, it was an energetic, motivational and inspirational three day program covering a range of finance, business and leadership topics from a South Australian economic update, to water resourcing and distribution, to the compelling front line stories of a journalist.

Our team was out and about capturing the Congress experience on film. Watch what delegates had to say about CPA Congress on CPA Australia’s YouTube Channel.
