The Tanguerin team left the Association tango.bg

Last week the members of the management team of Tanguerin left the Association tango.bg, the organization which they had initiated and co-founded a year and a half ago. Ivo and Nadia, founders and directors of Tanguerin, discontinued their membership in tango.bg and resigned from tango.bg's board of directors. Ivo also stepped down as co-chairman of tango.bg. The main reasons for this move was Ivo and Nadia's isolation from the decision-making process at tango.bg due to their current residency outside Bulgaria, as well as the arising conflict of interests with respect to their work for Tanguerin.

Although Tanguerin may continue to cooperate with tango.bg on certain occasions, Ivo and Nadia should no longer be associated with the activities of tango.bg. This will allow them to focus on the development of Tanguerin and will open possibilities for partnerships with other tango organizations in Bulgaria.
