Every once in a while I produce an event for a client which I think may be of interest to you too. I’m now working on the Kick-Off Fundraiser for the KARPOV2010 Campaign. The goal of this campaign is to elect the twelfth world chess champion, Anatoly Karpov, as President of the World Chess Federation (FIDE). The party will take place on Monday May 17th at the Trump Soho in New York.
