It's time to say goodbye

The starting signal for PRIX EUROPA 2025 has been given, submissions for the competition are arriving daily. The ship is shipshape.

I, Susanne Hoffmann, would now like to say goodbye to you, colleagues and friends throughout Europe. Thank you for your trust. Working for PRIX EUROPA has always been a privilege to me. There was never a question of meaning and certainly it has never been boring.

I am now handing over the beloved boat to Verena Keysers. She works in the Directorate of rbb,
is a real fan of PRIX EUROPA and will manoeuvre the ship through the next few years together with our long-standing and battle-tried crew. A reassuring thought that facilitates to say goodbye - after 40 years.
