The ZPV asks you to dance after all

Benefit The 2005 Press Ball has been secured. "Yes, we assume that we have found a new organizer," says Claudia Wirz, Co-President of the Zurich Press Association (ZPV), whose name will only be announced after the contract has been signed. It is reported that around 50 event specialists applied for the contract to organize the press ball. During the "very intensive evaluation", the ZPV placed "the greatest emphasis on securing financing". It does not want to invest any of its own money in the ball. The Press Ball 2004 was canceled at the last minute because the agency Swiss Premium Entertainment claimed problems with the budget and with finding sponsors. Whether the new organizer will make use of Liliane Fetscherin's proven services in the search for sponsors is "entirely up to the chosen company".
