Lab.gruppen MD Tomas Lilja opened the conference during breakfast at the factory. Delegates were then split into four groups and invited to attend separate sessions covering new product introductions, sales and marketing focus, and a factory tour that encompassed a presentation on the current "state-of-the-company". Kenneth Anderson (Lab.gruppen co-founder) aided by Tim Boyle (MD Concert Sound) also gave presentations.
At the close, the guests were entertained with a cocktail reception and Swedish-themed dinner at Gothenburg's landmark Gothia Towers Hotel. Michael J Christensen, VP of sales at Lab.gruppen commented, "This conference has been yet another great step forward for Lab.gruppen. Gathering our loyal and long serving supporters at the factory has been so rewarding. There was a great deal of enthusiasm and useful interaction and feedback on the new products and how we intend to market them. All of us at Lab.gruppen look forward to the next time we can get our entire family together again."
