20 jaar / 20 Years

Join us in 2009 as we renew our vision!

The 20th anniversary will last a whole year and will end in the Philadelphia region of the USA on Saturday 21 November 2009. In the meantime we have the chance to focus on updating folks with our 20 year heritage and sharing the future vision with them.
