2. A MESSAGE FROM PAKISTAN
Hasan Irfan Khan, of Irfan & Irfan, TAGLaw member firm in Lahore, Pakistan, has expressed appreciation for all the TIAG and TAGLaw friends who he knows are praying for Pakistan and the Pakistanis. Fortunately neither the terrorists nor the floods have had direct physical impact on Hasan's family or his office and staff. Along with the displaced people, Pakistani businesses are suffering, but the good news, according to Hasan, is that people have been remarkably resilient. Many private NGOs have assisted, and the government is now attempting to mobilize international institutions. The major challenge is how to distribute relief supplies equitably. Hasan is personally involved in relief efforts but he still hopes to arrange his schedule so he can personally greet his TAGLaw and TIAG friends in Toronto.

Unless you have been living in a cave, you may have heard that social networks like LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook can help you generate more business. But, how do you leverage the platforms in which you participate to grow your network and then turn that into new business? In this presentation we will show you how to use these and other social networking platforms to grow your network and build relationships, share best practices for identifying business opportunities, and recommend strategies for taking your online relationships offline.
