INVITATION EDA Conference in Nice, 4 th 6 th June 2009 WELCOME TO NICE Dear Friends, It is a pleasure for me to present to you the programme for the next EDA Conference in Nice. The aim of my presidency is to look at new ideas in order to continue developing our association. Several initiatives have been launched so far: the new EDA newsletter, the Demolition Awards with the KHL and a new EU project concerning the use of microwaves in demolition. By joining forces we can make the EDA even more attractive to each and every company working in demolition. I wish for all of us and for the EDA to have some interesting discussions and to share new knowledge with our colleagues and partners. Let the outcome of the conference be of mutual benefit clearing the path to better praxis and new business opportunities in the demolition field. Yves Canessa President of the EDA 3
