Company update

Hey all -

Ford is looking very promising in Shanghai!

Here's what I've got from Sam De La Garza, Brand Manager for the Ford Focus/Fiesta and Olin alum:

Great to hear from you. I will get moving on identifying the contacts. We should be able to make something work. Do you know which week would be the best for your visit. Also, is there a specific angle that you would like to pursue while you are there? It will help me identify the right person for the meeting. Let's stay in touch. I can be reached by cell phone at 2489304798. Thanks. Sam

....and here's a fragment of my reply:

Thanks so much for your prompt response! I truly appreciate it. As of now, approximately 20 of us (full-time MBAs) will be in Shanghai from March 9 –13. Our trip’s focus is primarily marketing, but we would be thrilled to visit Ford at any capacity.
