FCI is celebrating its 50th anniversary in the city of Amsterdam, its place of foundation and head office location ever since.
FCI started with just 15 members in 12 countries and held its firstannual meeting in Stockholm; 50 years later, the organisation now has nearly 400 members in 90 countries.
Around 375 attendees are joining the festivities, with delegates coming from all over the world to represent members and stakeholders. A broad-based conference programme is both acknowledging the achievements and looking forward to future developments.
