14th meeting of the FDS user group

Premiere in the history of the FDS Usergroup: 

From 6th to 7th The 14th user meeting of the FDS user group will take place as a digital conference for the first time. All interested parties are cordially invited.

Fortunately, the commitment of our speakers is unbroken even in this extraordinary   year, so that the new online format, as usual, has an extremely diverse   and exciting agenda ready for you.  

Be there and be inspired by the exchange with the other members. In virtual form, too, we will be able to seamlessly continue the traditionally open and lively discussion culture of recent years. 

I hope for numerous registrations and look forward to being with you digitally. 

Yours, Susanne Kilian
