1 CONSULEGIS AGM & Spring Conference Amsterdam / The Netherlands May 11 th - 14 th 2017 Registration & Booking Form 1

2 Dear CONSULEGIS Members, Dear CONSULEGIS Friends Marxman Advocaten is pleased and honoured to host the CONSULEGIS AGM & Spring Conference 2017 in the capital of the Netherlands, Amsterdam. During your stay in Amsterdam, you will get inspired and fall in love with this beautiful city and the Netherlands. We believe business is for winners - that is why we have joined the CONSULEGIS network. We would like to share this business with you as our CONSULEGIS partner and your professional network. Therefore, along with this conference, we have also organized an International Business Meeting to be held on 11 May 2017, in the late afternoon, about Cyber Security and the risks of data theft. Afterwards everyone is invited to the SkyLounge of the Double Tree Hotel for a welcome drink and a breathtaking view. Staying in Amsterdam will not be complete without visiting the world famous Rijksmuseum with its national masterpieces. This is why we are excited to take you to this amazing museum for a private tour on Saturday afternoon. If you prefer being challenged by a guided cycling tour throughout Amsterdam combined with some tastings of typical Dutch food, we'll make that happen for you. Many Dutch cities were built around canals and the Amsterdam Canal District is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The city has even been nicknamed the 'Venice of the North'. You are invited to explore with us the treasury of historic Amsterdam from the water. It will be a wonderful experience. We will take you on a cruise through the canals on Saturday night before dinner, where the traditional Dutch cuisine should be experienced by all in an atmosphere of the legendary past combined with a surprising modern twist. We are looking forward to sharing these aspects and more with you. We are thrilled to welcome you. We hope you will enjoy your stay in Amsterdam to the fullest! Best regards, Bas Besseling & Sebastiaan Palm 2
