I am delighted to extend a warm welcome to the EFCA-GAM and Conference, which will be held at the Hilton Maslak Hotel in İstanbul, Türkiye, on June 4–5, 2026. Istanbul is a city that serves as a convergence of continents, cultures, and ideas.
We are distinguished to have the opportunity to host representatives from European member countries, stakeholder organizations, consulting engineering firms, academic institutions, and local authorities from Turkey, who have all contributed to a truly international and multidisciplinary exchange.
The Annual GAM Meeting and the Future Leaders activities will commence on 4 June 2026, and the event will offer a stimulating environment for strategic exchange, learning, and dialogue.
The Conference is scheduled for June 5, 2026, and will concentrate on the subject of "Rethinking Resilience: Rebuilding Europe to withstand climate and security threats" This critical theme will be the subject of in-depth exploration by thought leaders and practitioners.
The conference is designed to bring together experts from various disciplines to exchange knowledge, experiences, and forward-thinking perspectives on the reconstruction and rehabilitation of Europe, with a particular emphasis on Ukraine.
Additionally, the conference will address the most recent advancements and emerging trends in the consulting engineering sector. In addition, the B2B meetings following the conference are designed to foster meaningful partnerships and encourage long-term collaboration.
