Aviagen concludes successful CEE Seminar in Hungary

 

 


Aviagen's Central and Eastern European (CEE) Seminar, which recently took place in Budapest, Hungary, focused on the sharing of the latest management information to optimise genetic potential and bird husbandry skills.

 

The event attracted customers from over 20 countries, and involved discussions of industry business as well as the establishment or renewal of professional relationships with peers and Aviagen senior staff.

 

Balázs Takács, the general manager of Aviagen Kft, and Marcel Janssen, the regional technical manager for Eastern Europe and CIS, opened the seminar with an industry summary and comprehensive update from the region.

 

Attendees were given the opportunity for a Q&A session with the seminar's presenters which included Magnus Swalander, Aviagen's R&D director, speaking on breeding techniques; technical services nutritionist, Leonardo Linares, on feeding and nutrition; QA manager, Tímea Torma, discussing the optimisation of hatchability; and industry consultant, Martin Rishøj, presenting his insight into the Scandinavian market.

 

"We are happy that we had a chance to host our customers in Budapest again.  We presented valuable information relevant to our customers and to our industry," Takács said. "This programme gave us the opportunity to deepen our relationships with new and existing customers. Meeting in person and sharing thoughts and experiences is invaluable and we feel we hosted a memorable and successful event."

 

"This is the third time I have attended the CEE seminar and as usual, the seminar was very well organized," Tamaz Tsikarishvili of Sabudara Ltd remarked. "Ms. Timea Torma's presentation on incubation was very interesting and I was also impressed with Leonardo Linares' presentation about feeding and nutrition in broiler breeders. Leonardo described how to decrease the expenses connected with feed production while maintaining performance levels."

 

The seminar concluded with a Flock Awards ceremony.
