Our impact
The report was extremely comprehensive and highlighted Dubaiʼs position as a business hub for the region. I am sure that USA Todayʼs readers will gain a positive insight on the United Arab Emirates. Chief Executive Officer, National Bank of Dubai “Itʼs a section, an entire section all about Saudi Arabia[…]. Itʼs stunning” Squawk Box, CNBC. March 29,2006 I would like to thank you for the copies of the United World special on Angola. The journal was very informative and it is a great way to get people to hear about Angola, other than through war images. My colleagues and I enjoyed the copies and greatly appreciate the efforts made in presenting the opportunities that Angola has to offer to the world. Angolan Embassy, Washington, D.C. When I read your articles I was impressed by the profound knowledge your collaborators acquired before they started their interviews with the Austrian politicians. I would also like to stress how much we appreciated your own efforts in preparing all necessary steps to achieve such wonderful coverage of our country.

In terms of both text information and layout, your special report was indeed superior to other special supplements of its kind. Press Counselor, Embassy of Greece, Washington, D.C. Congratulations on a job well done with your USA Today, Our World insert on Angola. The piece was comprehensive and to the point as it put the spotlight on many different aspects of the business environment in Angola. It also reflected thoroughness and professionalism on the part of your staff. My assessment is that “Angola – Birth of a New Era” hit the mark and was something that Angolans, the business community and government were proud of. General Manager, Chevron Texaco, Angola In a news cycle dominated by the U.S. ports security story, an insert in yesterdayʼs USA Today featured positive political and economic stories about the United Arab Emirates, a country very much in the news.
