Did you appreciate the efforts of the many working groups, or the interactions with the National Associations? Was the Winter Summit interesting? Did your company win an award at the Summer Summit (see video)?
The EIGA Board urges us all to share our appreciation via this mini-survey. It will take no more than 2 minutes of your time, but it really helps EIGA.
Thanks! Philippe Cornille, EIGA General Secretary
