PRESS RELEASE: Prague, 23 May, 2007JO WEAVER, LONGEST STANDING BRITISH CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CHAIRPERSON
Last evening, during the British Chamber of Commerce’s Tenth Annual General Meeting in Prague, Jo Weaver was re-elected by Chamber members for a third term, making her the longest standing Chamber Chairman in the history of the Chamber. Weaver is also the only woman to ever serve as the Chamber’s Board Chairman.
In response to her re-election, Weaver commented, “I’m delighted with the member’s decision. Over the past three years, the other board members and I have put forward a new vision for the Chamber and invested considerable time and energy in carrying it out. Today’s vote indicates that members agree with the direction in which we have been moving.”
Two other new members were also elected to the Board, Pavla P?ikrylová from Peterka & Partners and Martin Vosecký from CATRO.
The British Ambassador to the Czech Republic, Linda Duffield, was also in attendance and made positive remarks regarding the work that the Chamber has been carrying out, particularly in regard to some of its more recent initiatives, including its ‘Improving the Delivery of Justice’ working group, and the efforts that it has been making in promoting Corporate Social Responsibility, both to its members and to the outside world.
The British Chamber of Commerce in the Czech Republic has grown from just a few British companies as members when it was established in 1997, to more than 330 Czech, British and other companies today. It is a non-profit organisation that is funded by its members but that works closely with the British Embassy and today it is a force to be reckoned with.

Many female foreigners supplement the ranks of women in the local business sphere, either as entrepreneurs or in leading managerial positions. Why did they decide to build their careers in this country, and what challenges did they face ?
Article featuring Jo Weaver PRESS RELEASE: Prague, 21st October, 2002These last few days have seen the culmination of eighteen months' work for the full-service marketing agency, JWA Prague, who launched the new shopping mall, Tesco's Letnany Obchodni Centrum in a style never seen before in the Czech Republic.
Once thought of as, first and foremost, an event management company, JWA have now proved that they are up there with the big agencies by preparing and running the whole marketing launch plan for the centre. The campaign started with a stone-laying ceremony eighteen months ago, continued with low-key PR and advertising to promote the centre to future tenants, and then, six months ago, went into a full-scale advertising and marketing campaign which has already been voted as the best promotion of a shopping mall seen this year.
To quote Jo Weaver, managing director of JWA Prague:
"We are known for our event management because that is what people see. We do not believe in promoting ourselves when we are working for a client; it is the client that counts after all. So we never put our own logo on adverts, brochures, leaflets or whatever since we are not the company that is being promoted. Perhaps it is time that we did!"
Like it or not, however, JWA's event-management skills are soon going to be the talk of the town as the three day launch event for Tesco Letnany Obchodni Centrum was a continuous run of spectacular entertainment. Starting off on Friday morning with an official ribbon-cutting ceremony, by 11.00 in the morning the mall was packed with people who were left open-mouthed both by the range of shops and the entertainment on offer.
Entertainers included, amongst others Leos Mares, Ilona Czakova, Martin Maxa and Anna K, there were fashion shows by Promod, C&A and others, dancers, magicians, stilt walkers; shoppers simply didn't know where to look next. And the number of visitors reflected this: an average of 20,000 people visited Letnany Obchodni Centrum over the three day launch period, with some tenants announcing record sales for one or all of the days. A success for Tesco, without a doubt. A success for JWA? Definitely.
