Scenic canal cruise through the city
Festive dinner and evening celebration at the historic Feithhuis
NITE We kick off our program at the venue of NITE (Nationaal Interdisciplinair Theater Ensemble). The innovative collective known for pushing the boundaries of performance but also the work base of our member Yvonne den Burger. NITE merges dance, theater, and music into powerful storytelling. During our visit we will kick off our festive day and brief you about the program ahead.
The Forum Groningen – A living Landmark A true architectural gem in the heart of the city, the Forum is more than a building. It’s a cultural statement. With its modern design, panoramic views, and unexpected corners, it offers endless possibilities for exploration and inspiration. During our visit, you'll get a guided tour and a peek behind the scenes of this extraordinary venue. Whether you’re planning a meeting or looking for a unique spot for a future event, the Forum offers a place for it - literally in every corner, room, or even stairwell. There is no place like it in the Netherlands.
Discover Groningen from the Water Let the city reveal itself from the water as we board a canal cruise with Kool Rondvaarten. Relax and enjoy the ride as we glide through historic canals and under ancient bridges.
Celebrate in Style at Het Feithhuis We end the day at one of Groningen’s most beautiful historic venues: Het Feithhuis. Located next to the Martinikerk, this charming building has been welcoming guests since the 17th century. With its elegant ambiance it's the perfect place to gather, reflect, and raise a glass to our shared journey. Enjoy a festive dinner, great conversations, and a night to remember—complete with music and dancing with DJ Werner de W.
Let’s celebrate 50 years of connection, development, and unforgettable memories together in Groningen.

Welcome to IMA East's member meeting and summer celebration in June 2025
Together with our Business Member ESS Group and Steam Hotel, we would like to welcome you to IMA's summer closing event.
The Steam Hotel is a sequel to a story that began long ago, at a time when large parts of Sweden were powered by energy from a steam power plant by Lake Mälaren. But over time, society evolved and needs changed. Remained in Västerås was a beautiful old brick building that, with its machines, boilers, and pipes, reminded of a bygone era.
Until now, when the visionaries behind Falkenberg Strandbad, Ystad Saltjöbad, Hotel Pigalle, and Hotel Bellora are channeling their efforts into making the old steam power plant one of the country's leading energy suppliers again. Now in your personal service.
The 18-story high and culturally protected building has that raw feeling that only an industrial building can provide, and you can truly feel the history in the walls. The 263 hotel rooms have a nice industrial-romantic style where raw materials like stone, metal, and concrete are softened with wood, glass, and textiles. Floor number seven is specially designated for gathering strength. Here, there are among other things fire relaxation, indoor pool, winter garden, and rooftop terrace with outdoor pool.
With a pleasant distance from Stockholm's high pulse, in a unique and historical setting with a wide view over Lake Mälaren, a visit to The Steam Hotel becomes an unforgettable experience.
If you want to stay overnight at The Steam Hotel, you can do so at a favorable price of 800 SEK (single room), 1,000 SEK (double room).
Agenda
17.30 Arrival at the Steam Hotel in Västerås. Welcome drink.
18.00 Information from IMA and The ESS Group and tour of the Steam Hotel.
19.30 Dinner.
21.45 Buss back to Stockholm and City Terminal.
23.15 Thank you for today

IMA Sweden South invites you to the Q2 seminar, which this time will be a training session in CapCut.
CapCut is a free, AI-powered video editing software that is useful in both professional and personal contexts. It’s especially handy for creating polished social media posts.
You will receive an introduction to the program along with guidance to help you get started and begin working in CapCut. For those already using the tool, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions to an expert.
A bit about Erik Eriksson, who will lead the course:
My name is Erik, I’m 24 years old and live in central Gothenburg. I run my own business as a virtual assistant and work with everything from design and video to web and content.
Video has always held a special place in my heart. My dad is an actor and a true film nerd, so I started filming, editing, and publishing clips early on platforms like YouTube, Vine, Instagram, and TikTok. One of my absolute favorite tools today is CapCut, which I use daily in my work—I love how easy it makes creating professional videos quickly.
In addition to my business, I also run Digikon together with two friends. We educate and support people who want to take the step toward a freer, digital work life—and it was actually through our very first course that I got to know Helena Johansson!
When I’m not in front of the screen, I’m out walking, watching football, or planning trips I think I’ll book

Feedback That Engages and Works So important – yet so challenging!
Why do many hesitate to give feedback? What are we afraid of – and why doesn’t feedback always work as we intend?
As an EA or PA, you play a key role in fostering good communication and motivation within your team. The ability to provide constructive feedback is essential for building strong relationships, driving development, and ensuring effective collaboration.
In this interactive workshop, Lise Grevle Teien and Nancy Fandler Brodin from Fandler Brodin & Partners will provide insights, techniques, and practical tools to help you master feedback that truly works.
✅ Learn how to use feedback to: ✔️ Adjust and improve performance and results ✔️ Promote learning and development ✔️ Strengthen relationships and build a trust-based culture ✔️ Increase motivation, meaning, and engagement ✔️ Contribute to a safe and open work environment
Avoid the pitfalls! Poor feedback can create distance and uncertainty – but when done right, it can motivate, inspire, and have a powerful impact.
Join the workshop “Feedback That Engages and Works” and gain new perspectives and tools you can apply immediately!
