Welcome Message from APAC
I have had the great pleasure of visiting India on a number of occasions and I am very much looking forward to another opportunity to visit this wonderful country for the APAC 2025 Annual Meetings, and we couldn’t have better hosts than our colleagues that are NABCB and NABL. Please make sure you put your dates in the calendar now and also pass the baton to colleagues in your organization. We would also love to work with the next generation of APAC representatives in the meetings. I look forward to see you all in Bengaluru. As together we continue our collaboration to make APAC bigger, better and stronger.
My APAC colleagues, I join with the APAC leadership and your colleagues to come to Bengaluru, and exchange views, listen to the conformity assessment professionals, and meet and greet colleagues from the vast regions that APAC members operate in. I know our Indian colleagues will put out the usual splendid show and welcome us with the hospitality they are known for and make APAC 2025 Annual Meetings a memorable event. I would especially like to see the newcomers attend this event so that we can build a brighter APAC future and empower the new generation.
