I thought it might be of some interest to some if I wrote something about what happens behind the scenes at the BECC, who does what and what relationships we maintain.
An important and logical relationship is the one forged between the BECC and the British Embassy. When the management and seven member board meet once a month, the British Ambassador, Peter Carter, usually comes along. Fortunately, Peter seems to regard the board meetings as a decent way to spend some of his time.
Whilst the BECC is very much its own organisation, close links with the British Embassy are, in our view, essential to maintain. In addition to the Ambassador’s participation at the meetings and as a regular host and supporter of our events, the BECC management team meets once a month with the Embassy’s UKTI team which is headed up by Annely Lautre and Indrek Pällo.
The primary objective of the meetings is to share information on what each organisation is planning to do and thus avoid the kinds of ‘misunderstandings’ which sometimes occurred in the past. This seems to be working well. Long may it be so!
