    Joséphine Gourlet, Event Coordinator European Association for the Study of the Liver

    I would like to thank visitBerlin for its participation in the 2016 FIM Gala Ceremony in Berlin. Without the interest and involvement of Berlin's Convention Office, it would not have been such a resounding success. I was pleased to count on its support at the FIM’s most glamorous event of the year.
