Sandrine Mathen - Belgian Red Cross

“What I like about the User Days is that this event offers me the opportunity to meet people from other services in an atmosphere that is completely different from that of an emergency situation or a disaster.”
s/Lt Tanguy Fierens – Liege Fire Brigade

“Participating in the ASTRID User Days is always an enjoyable experience because it is an opportunity to exchange ideas with people from other fire brigades from all over the country and with radio users from other public services. And for people with a passion for telecommunications, like me, it really is an event not to be missed!”
Olivier Hannot – Co-ordinator Community Guards in Seraing

“The suppliers present the latest applications. I want to stay informed about the latest developments because communications are crucial for my teams.”
Luitenant Fabian Berti – Charleroi Fire Brigade

“I'm in charge of the radio training courses, and therefore the ASTRID User Days are a perfect opportunity for me to keep abreast of things.”
Christian Mouraux – Marketing Manager ASTRID

“A large number of novelties will be presented during this edition of the User Days, and data communications will receive a lot of attention”
Hans De Poortere - Customer Relations Manager ASTRID

“Our users are very interested in positioning. Anyone still hesitating will get a complete overview of all the possibilities on the ASTRID User Days”
Koen Bronselaer - Emergency doctor Leuven hospital

“The User Days are the right place to stay informed about the latest technologies and possibilities. A few hours time are enough to get a perfect overview of everything that is being developed. And you meet a lot of colleagues too, so it’s also an excellent opportunity to catch up.”
