Deploying limited capital more economically, and using resources effectively: Switzerland – particularly the economic area of Zurich – has long incorporated these central principles of facility management.

And yet such sustainable action is subjected to a constant process of improvement. Society and technology are constantly developing. It is therefore all the more important to learn from the experience of others.

The European Facility Management Conference 2007 provides an ideal platform for doing just that. A platform from which the city of Zurich itself can also benefit, as it’s precisely the city’s public administration as a ‘big business’ that can profit from such an exchange of experiences.

For that reason, I would like to thank you for your participation and wish you a highly successful conference. At the same time, I hope that while you are here you will take the opportunity of getting to know better the city with the highest quality of life in the world.

Welcome to Zurich. I look forward to an exciting and rewarding exchange of information.

Dr. Elmar Ledergerber Mayor of Zurich
