1. Invitation to Participate in Survey on Innovation Initiatives of ISSMGE

On behalf of the President of ISSMGE Charles Ng and the Chair of the Innovation and Development Committee (IDC) Prof. Dimitrios Zekkos, we are pleased to invite you to participate in a survey on “Innovation Initiatives of ISSMGE.” The IDC has been working for the last eight years on a number of initiatives, and as new priorities are being set, we think your feedback will be extremely useful on the development of new initiatives. The survey is available here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/RSX6HS2 . It should take no more than 8 minutes to fill in the survey. Also, a lottery will be held and one participant will receive a set of geotechnical books; please include your email in your response. The survey will be available until April 30th.
