At its AGM last Friday, the Hull & Humber Chamber of Commerce appointed Carolyn Burgess (our chief exec) as its vice president. At the same meeting, Carol Thomsett succeeded Malcolm Scott to become Chamber president for 2008.
Carolyn said:
"It's a huge honour to become an officer of an organisation stretching back 171 years. Malcolm has done a fantastic job as president over the past 12 months, and I know that Carol is going to continue driving the Chamber forward during her term of office. The Hull & Humber region is bursting with talent and vision, and the Chamber plays a critical role in bringing people together and making things happen."
