				|  | Geomares is a long-term member of FIG and also a faithful 
				gold-media parter at FIG Working Week and Congresses. Last year, in 2021, Geomares was one of the organising 
				partners of the FIG e-Working Week 2021.
				 In 2020 when the on-site participation of FIG Working Week 
				had to be cancelled, Geomares generously offered to publish a 
				newsletter each day during the week with articles. This resulted 
				in the creation of 26 special articles.Read the articles here
  FIG thanks Geomares for their continued support and for 
				the close and good cooperation over the years.
