International Leadership Forum: ILF Get-together
Network for international minded executives
On August 25th Erhverv Aarhus is once again hosting an event for our international business network for leaders and executives, International Leadership Forum.
This event is an informal "ILF get-together" at The Harbour Bath, Aarhus Ø
We'll meet at The Harbour Bath at Aarhus Ø, which is a charming area with mind-blowing architecture in the center of Aarhus. The area is separated by canals and has lots of water sport activities, an observation tower, great opportunities for food lovers, The Harbour Bath - among many other things.
The event is all about informal networking, however, we are also pleased to say that former Chief City Architect Stephen Willacy will come by and give a inspiring talk about the architecture in the area and the visions for Aarhus Ø.
Stephen is currently director at Stephen Willacy Architecture + Urbanism after recently completing his tenor (2012-2020) as the Chief City Architect at Aarhus City Council, where he was responsible for achieving architectural quality for large-scale plans and projects across the city.
