The new IFM service provides a great opportunity to build something from the ground up and give it new impetus. A service that is soundly organised, but above all visibly contributes to education, research and co-operation. I am very much looking forward to getting to know Saxion and together with colleagues, continuing to build up this new service.”
The Executive Board wishes Arjan Stam good luck and success in his new position at Saxion.
