EVA event marks 25th anniversary
The EVA 25th Anniversary will take place on October 16 & 17 2019 in Baveno, Italy – Lake Maggiore. The first day of the event will be dedicated to the EVA General Assembly meeting, a conference and a gala dinner
with an awards ceremony. On the second day, participants will have a choice between company visits, company speeches or a cultural tour of
the Borromean islands. The conference will be hosted by Pierluigi Collina, considered by many to be
one of the best football referees of all time. Described as an inspirational speaker, he will impart anecdotes from his career during his talk on motivation, teamwork and conflict management. The programme will focus primarily on the 25th anniversary. While there is
no commercial exhibition this year, the sponsors will still be given ample opportunity to showcase their products. The city of Baveno is located on the Western shore of Lake Maggiore, next
to Stresa. Baveno enjoys a beautiful location near the Borromean Islands and has a remarkable architectural heritage. Its location and lakeside walks make it a great place to stay or visit when discovering Lake Maggiore.
