Working with Fairmile West

Associate EventIBC is upon us and Fairmile West have arranged a reception at IBC for past/current Associates and those who have indicated an interest in working with us. This reception, or ‘borrel’ as the Dutch would call it is taking place from 18:00 on Saturday 12th September at the Grand Café De Balie at Kleine-Gartmanplantsoen 10, 1017 RR Amsterdam, near Leidseplein.

Attendance is open to existing and past Associates and all independent contractors interested in the opportunities that working with Fairmile West brings. All you need to do is RSVP via Eventbrite to confirm attendance and come along to grab a drink and snacks after the end of a long exhausting day at the Rai. Fairmile West, in the form of Ian Nock, Nuno Amorim and Emi Garcia, will be waiting to greet you.
