IBF Korea 2014 was very well organized—all sessions, both plenary and thematic, were a source of new information about the project. I had several interesting one-on-one meetings and I am sure it will be good for the future of Boccard's business. Furthermore, meals and breaks were a great opportunity to develop closer relationships.

It was a pleasure to meet and brainstorm among different top-notch players in the different disciplines among the 澳门六合彩高手 Member countries. It was also a terrific experience to attend the technical tour of the Korean tokamak KSTAR!
