Similarly we would like to express our sincere thanks to all the paper presenters for their commendable effort to prepare and present their papers as per the required format in the summit. We would also like to give our sincere to all the presenters for delivering their presentations within the given time.
Our gratitude goes to all the Moderators who supported the summit by carefully managing the time of the sessions, facilitating comments and queries from the audience and summarizing the sessions. We would not have completed all the sessions in time if they would not have managed to take care of the given time for all presentations and the participants queries.
We would also like to thank the panelists for providing their expert comments after the presentations and tactfully responding to the questions and comments from the floor. They were very beneficial to the presenters for further improvements in the paper, if necessary, and also for all the participants who came with very pertinent comments and enriched the discussions.
We are also very much thankful to you volunteers for your time, commitment and hard work in helping organizing, coordinating, facilitating and helping to run the summit. Your help was invaluable and without it, the summit would not have been possible.
In addition we would like to extend a thank you to our special guests for their time and contributions to the summit. The presence of guests from different backgrounds, places and foreign countries helped our program to be effective and would continue to motivate us for organizing such programs in future too.
We would also like to extend a special thank you to the contributors and sponsors for their assistance and support. Your generous and gracious contributions made it possible to host an event of this scale.
We would also like to extend a sincere thank you to the Media team for their efforts to publish daily Summit News bulletins and also spread publicity about the Summit in all major news medias outlets such as news papers, FM Radios and Television channels.
In addition, we would like to extend our gratitude to all members of Steering Committee, Working Committee, Resource Paper Sub-committee and all the CMF staff for all of their hard work and dedication to making the summit a success.
We would also like to thank the Yak and Yeti Hotel staff, the logistic support providers and all other supporters for their assistance throughout the summit.
The summit was a great success, and this would not have been possible without the time, commitment, and contributions from all of you towards reaching the goals of the summit and working towards improving the microfinance industry in Nepal.
We believe that the outcome of the summit in terms of declaration would lead the microfinance sector of Nepal in the days to come.
The Summit Declaration and Resource Papers will be available on the website for anyone who is interested in accessing them.
Once again thank you all for your support to make the Summit success.
