President’s Message
Connecting for a Better World

Dear Friends,

“Connecting Development for a Better World” is theme of the 67th FIABCI World Congress in Panama. Connecting with you and our FIABCI colleagues around the world has been the highlight of my Presidency and why I joined FIABCI. I know the work we did and the connections we made – at the UN in New York, at the 66th World Congress in Malaysia, in Singapore, in Hawaii, in Dubai and in Nice – all contributed to growing FIABCI and our business opportunities.

I am ready to pass the President’s Gavel to Maire Rosol in Panama and focus on getting entries for this year’s Grand Prix Awards Competition. The Awards Gala will be in Aspen along with our Leadership Retreat this year. Over the last few years, I have been able to bring international recognition to four outstanding Aspen projects. The Grand Prix program is the easiest way for you to leverage your FIABCI membership. There is a deserving project in your home town. Raise your profile and secure an entry by August 31st.

Thank you for your support over this past year, especially those who have served as leaders on the local, national and international levels. There is still more work to do and more connections to make. Now it’s your turn!

Sincerely,

Ruth Kurger
2015-2016 President
