On 17 th June 2023 the Presidency Election took place during the General Assembly on the ocassion of the FBE General Congress organized excellently by Amsterdamse Orde van Advocaten.

We are very delighted to announce that the General Assembly elected by acclamation and with big applause the new FBE President Izabela Konopacka as well as the new 1st Vice-President Marc Labbe, the new 2nd Vice-President Michael Griem and the Treasurer Monique Stengel.

We wish the newly elected Presidency together with the FBE Secretary General Patrick Dillen to accomplish their ambitious objectives for the benefit of the FBE Bar members.

We would like also to thank our immediate President Bas Martens for his outstanding leadership  due to which the FBE attracted even greater international recognition and interests of the new Bar members.

Our sincere thanks go also to the former FBE President Dominique Attias who for the last year supported the FBE Presidency with her expertise, competence and international connections.

Thank you also to all the Presidents of the Commission and the representatives of the Bar members for your presence and invaluable contribution during the General Assembly in Amsterdam.
