This is great - thank you. Just what we were looking for. Albert also alerted me to this, and to Timothée, who programs it.

Very good to meet you, Aiśwarya and Emmanuel. Would you be willing to be interviewed for our KDAB News?

I appreciate that’s a bit vague! We’re figuring out how to present something on kids education and likely yours won’t be the only one we’ll talk about, so it’s a bit unclear yet how we’ll do it/how much time we’ll have.

Let me discuss this with the News team and we'll come back with some ideas. Perhaps next step is a meeting to talk about it.

Many thanks again,

Frances
