Jeanette Duttlinger & Roger Burri: ambitious and well-organized

Be ambitious, work hard, organize to perfection and insist on what you want. That is what I learned from Jeanette and Roger. It all began in 2001. I got a flyer via EICTA, the European Information Technology, Consumer Electronics and Telecom (Industry)Association that asked, “who is interested in contributing to a Recycling Congress? Equipment manufacturers were encouraged to get involved. The organizer was ICM, well known from their battery and car recycling congresses. Could this be interesting? It was intriguing at least. Why not try? I decided to send a bit of a provocative abstract as a test. As a response, the organizers decided to test me. My story was accepted. Now, I had to show what I really stood for. So I went to Davos in wintertime. The snow was great, the conference was even better. It turned out to consist of a community with relevance for electronics manufacturers: recyclers and treatment technology vendors were well represented. Such stakeholders in electronics recycling are not found in the more scientific oriented conferences. There was a lot of learning therefore. Not only the first year, which was a kind of experiment, but ever year since. The IERC (International Electronics Recycling Conference) has grown to be the best of its kind. This is due to its content, their drive to attract the best speakers and to involve the most relevant exhibitors. The powers behind this drive are Jeanette Duttlinger and her organizing team and Roger Burri, the president of the Conferences. The ambiance contributes as well with excellent conference centers, good hotels, perfect networking dinners with plenty of fun as well.
