Also, to see footage of a national TV broadcast of the gala awards ceremony here: http://www.vesti.ru/only_video.html?vid=614234. We also received national radio and newspaper coverage.
Next year, the second week of August, the SAGE World Cup will take place in Seoul, South Korea. Working with SAGE Korea and its main sponsor, KOTRA, we are quite sure that we will have delegates from at least 30 countries there. If you are interested in attending, to serve as a judge or an observer, send me an email and I will add you to or prospective judge/observer list.
Thank you for your interest in SAGE.
