“Considering the outcomes of this event, we at JEC Group, believe that composite materials have great opportunities in the construction industry. The feedbacks from the many attending architects and end-users are very positive and we will keep on developing this topic on our next events,” Christian Strassburger, JEC Group events director for Asia said.
