Message of Dr Farag Moussa

President of IFIA

GREETINGS on behalf of my organization, the International Federation of Inventors' Associations (IFIA), which brings together, and represents, inventors from 108 countries

CONGRATULATIONS to the Association of Hungarian Inventors (MAFE) for having decided to organize two important events in Budapest from April 5 to 7, 2002, which  are inventive and modern in their approach.

First, both events will be held in an environment which is in itself an invention, namely, the ECO-appartment House.

Second, both events will be using Internet, one of the greatest inventions of the recent years. The Conference will be a virtual conference ! The exhibition, although presented in the form of a traditional fair, will include, among the inventions to be exhibited, inventions downloaded from a virtual maketplace. This online marketplace is the so-called IFIA Internet Inventions Store, better known by its acronym IFIS

Although IFIS is just over two years old, it already advertises world-wide nearly 300 inventions from 81 countries. This is one of the greatest achievements of my organization IFIA, achievement due in part to the kind cooperation of MAFE to this project. For if IFIS is fully prepared by IFIA in Geneva, the forms are published on Internet by MAFE in Budapest. This being said, I hope that some of the authors of the inventions posted on IFIS will accept to have their inventions exhibited at GENIUS 2002, by means of models and/or posters which MAFE will prepare.

To conclude, I am happy to inform you that I will personally be present in Budapest during GENIUS 2002, and that my organization IFIA will cooperate with MAFE to make a success out of the events of April 5-7, 2002.
