Connect 10
Welcome to the new look Halfen Connect.
Back in 2004, several major events took place - Facebook was founded, Lord of the Rings won a record 11 Oscars, the Millau Bridge in France was completed, construction of the Burj Dubai began, and we launched the Halfen Connect newsletter.
Ok, so the Connect launch isn't maybe on the same scale as some of the other events, but it's hard to believe it was 5 years ago. Since then, technology has changed and we felt now is the right time to join the digital revolution, creating the on-line version.
We hope you like the new format, and continue to enjoy reading Connect.
