November's International Construction Economic Forum (ICEF) saw some 200 delegates and speakers take part in the inaugural conference, awards ceremony and networking event. One of the highlights of the event, which took place from 20 to 22 November in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, was the keynote address from former Spanish Prime Minister Jose Maria Aznar. He highlighted the construction sector as being of strategic importance in Europe, representing more than 10% of GDP and over 50% of fixed capital investment.
