| Comment | Lol, I was going to ask you if you were the dude who wrote the article? Seems like only he would really be proud of something so simplistic and poorly researched.
I know you are likely conjuring images of smoky back rooms with briefcases of cash and private jet flights to Dubai and shite but I am afraid the truth is almost certainly a lot more boring than that. Some one at CCOG likely got an email from some organisation looking to maybe send some students and they were like “sure we will send over an MOU, let us know when you get up and running and when you might get the first cohort and we will progress to the actual contract and due diligence stage” and that was likely it.
A partnership that fizzled out with a provider that never materialised isn’t exactly thrilling stuff though so the Herald has manipulated into thinking it’s something else. Clearly worked. The Herald knows full well people with little to no international business experience or experience in partnership building/contracts can likely be manipulated into letting their imaginations run wild with stuff like this. Worked a treat on you it seems. |
