Internationality. Tradition. Future Trends.

This is what people say

„While it is certainly a long way from New Zealand the quality of the speakers, the content of their presentations, the organisation by yourselves and the sheer scale of the FSB made the trip extremely worthwhile and has given us much to ponder and consider going forward.“

Julian Todd
Sport New Zealand

 

„High level conference with good practical inspiration from the FSB.“

Theis Bavnhøj Hansen
Faaborg-Midtfyn Kommune

 

„Wonderfully organised and managed conference. I gained a great deal from it and enjoyed my time with the rest of those who attended.“

Mike Lawless

„From what I observed, the quality of the presentations and attendees was of the highest nature. I really appreciated the international forum that IAKS offers with the exchange of work, ideas and your beautiful publication. It allows us to learn from each other and realize how much we all share in common.“

Jim Kalvelage
Opsis Architecture

 

„I learned a huge amount which will stand our business in good stead as we evolve our plans“

Heath Harvey
