FIG Annual Conference 

 

 

   
NEW YORK was the venue for our latest conference. We were delighted to meet some of our newer members as well as some old friends!
VENUE
The Desmond Tutu Center is a little gem tucked away in the suburbs of Chelsea, Manhattan.  This gothic building provided a relaxed setting for our evening Reception and for our full-day Annual Conference.
 
Delegates had the opportunity to listen to a number of guest speakers including Sharon McStine from NY & NJ Port Authority and Bill Puckhaber from JFK Chamber of Commerce.

Delegates took a brief city tour followed by dinner in 'The View' revolving restaurant overlooking the magnificent Manhattan skyline from the 47th floor!

Day 3 included pre-scheduled One-on-One meetings on board the charter yacht 'Lexington' where passengers enjoyed a buffet lunch whilst cruising the East and Hudson Rivers.
