The New Global Trend in Online Dating
Dating is a chance — a chance to meet someone new, a chance for them to introduce you to people, placesand things that you never knew you’d love. It’s the chance that you won’t like them and that they won’t likeyou. And it’s the chance that they will and that you will too. It’s the chance to spend time together — maybe a lifetime but maybe just an hour. And it’s this chance that was recently showcased at Serbia Fashion Week in Novi Sad by the leading international dating service Dating.com, a major sponsor of the event.
Mr. Dmitry Fomichev, Marketing Director of Social Discovery Ventures, parent company of Dating.com, speaks to Profit magazine.
