June 2002: C3 Magazine review of the Cambashi seminar
Mike Evans in his regular examination of the market concluded that whilst times are tough and companies are reluctant to make investments, there are still nuggets of investment to be identified.

These users also need help to justify these investments to the bean counters. And of course, Cambashi provides information and training.
