News and Events

Here you may find information about FGN news and most recent events.

Due to the Corona protective measures, only two events could take place in 2020. Namely the Business Taxation Workshop in February and our internal FGN Workshop in September. Unfortunately, we had to cancel: Our Snow Seminar in Waltensburg from 23rd until 24th of March 2020, the international FGN-Konference from 24th of September 2020 and our Jöhr-Lecture. Also in 2021 we had to refrain from organizing the Walter-Adolf-Jöhr-lecture as well as from the international FGN conference. We were allowed to carry out our internal FGN workshop at Greuterhof Islikon in compliance with the corona protection measures:
