After visiting the impressive factory with state of the art equipment for the design and production of high-end airport and parcel processing, the milestones and strategies for GATE’s future have been discussed.

Following the presentation of the keynote speaker, J.C.Berndt of BRANDAMAZING for „Marketing and Brands“, the official part began with reports of events in 2011/12 as well as the planning for projects for the years to come.

The new election of board members confirmed Mr. Dieter A. Heinz as President for the next three years.

Mr. Hartmut Gerdau, long term treasurer, retracted for personal reasons, Mr. Ernst-August Gohde (Nerak) replaces him from January 2013 on. Both executive board members were released with great appreciation.

The new year will start with a conference and workshop of the board and delegates for the various activities of the association.
