ANNUAL REPORT 2017
workforce and activities will remain at our facilities. This connection with Bureau Veritas will offer an incredible number of collaborative opportunities. I would like to thank the entire laboratory staff for being so committed to their work that has brought about their current success and will continue to do so in the future. The reader can check out balance sheet figures at December 31, revenues resulting from growth connected to activities and extraordinary revenues produced by selling the laboratory The Collaborating Entity approach has been reinforced further thanks to a more solid strategic relationship with the technology centre and also because Juaristi Boring & Milling Machines SLU joined our club in 2017. As already stated in this report, it wouldn’t have been possible to be successful in 2017 without the trust of our customers, without the support of the institutions and our Collaborating Entities, without the commitment of the members on the Board of Trustees and, finally, without the efforts and commitment of the researchers and workforce at large. Thank you all very much.
