Dear SITE Germany Members and Friends,
On 2023, our SITE Germany Board is ready to rebirth and has set a plan, together with SITE Headquarters and special support from fellow European Chapters, to revive our chapter in all its splendour!
The last years were very tough for our industry and our chapter and this was the main reason why we reduced our activities to a minimum. We started our revival in 2022 with our SITE Germany Cocktail during IMEX in Frankfurt and were very active in all other activities of SITE Global throughout the year.
For 2023, we want to focus on fulfilling your objectives as a valued member. Due to the fact that we are all distributed all overGermany and neighbouring countries, we believe we need to provide impactful and regular content and business connections, without the need to travel too much.
As we do not want you to miss any of our events, please visit this website regulary and participate!
We also want to take this opportunity to invite all members to participate in our Board, as we still have some positions available.
The SITE membership can offer you more than just the use of our logo! You get real business opportunities to make or renew contacts that can help you increase your network and improve your performance. We only require that you participate in our events (locally and globally) and help us grow our SITE Germany Chapter!
Our Chapter Board is looking forward to serve you again this year and is appreciative of any suggestions, input and participation you can contribute.
Cheers to a prosperous, healthy and successful 2023!
Marina Parra-Flechsig and the SITE Germany Chapter Board
