Dear Sir or Madam,

our "Open Day" that took place a week ago is over and UNITRACC can now officially call itself a "Selected Landmark 2007" in the "Land of Ideas" - including a cup, a certificate signed by the German Federal President and a wall chart.

The UNITRACC-Team is extremely happy about this award and is very pleased with the course of this special day at the event held in Bochum, Germany as well as the virtual "Open Day" held at www.unitracc.com. Even the Lord Mayor of the City of Bochum Dr. Ottilie Scholz took the opportunity of congratulating the UNITRACC-Team with a short speech. Read more about the event in our News-Area.

Good news for all those of you who did not have the opportunity at the "Open Day" to explore the underground virtually and to gain an impression of UNITRACC!
With an access code that can be requested for free on the UNITRACC website you get the chance of testing the complete extent of UNITRACC for free for one week. Let's go!

Enjoy exploring the underground with UNITRACC.

Kind regards,

Dipl.-Ing. Robert Stein
(UNITRACC Editor)
