Three awards were presented in Madrid last week to the winners of the EuroFM Awards.

The European FM Student of the Year award went to Kris Scheeres of NHTV Breda University of Applied Science.

Scheeres wins free room and board, travel expenses and entrance to IFMA's World Workplace 2010 conference in the USA.

Susanne Balslev Nielsen (pictured) of DTU Technical University in Denmark  took the European FM Researcher of the Year prize. Susanne’s study was entitled ’Facilities Management – when Sustainable Development is Core Business’. 

The Partners Across Borders award went to Sodexo with P&G. Sodexo began working with P&G (Procter & Gamble) in 2004 to explore ways to reduce costs by improving systems and services, simplifying processes, and leveraging scale.

Sodexo delivered soft services at three test sites before progressing to all P&G’s European plants. This agreement has now been expanded to include 24 live plants in nine countries with additional plants scheduled to transition this year.
