Double celebration<br />
20 years <strong>KNX</strong> at the <strong>KNX</strong> Group in Zagreb<br />
On the particular occasion<br />
of the 20th Anniversary of<br />
<strong>KNX</strong>, the National Group of<br />
Croatia took the opportunity<br />
to celebrate the opening of the<br />
largest <strong>KNX</strong> Training Centre<br />
in Zagreb. A great number of<br />
visitors and students led by<br />
prof.Miščević B. Arch. have had<br />
an opportunity to talk to <strong>KNX</strong><br />
certified engineers and inquire<br />
about <strong>KNX</strong> related subjects.<br />
As it is today, the overall interest<br />
of engineers is constantly<br />
increasing and the translation of<br />
the <strong>KNX</strong> handbook has proven<br />
to be right direction. Moreover,<br />
The increasing presence is<br />
the proof that <strong>KNX</strong> Standard<br />
is becoming more and more<br />
interesting to the general and<br />
targeted population. As result,<br />
in the near future, <strong>KNX</strong> Croatia<br />
plans to attract more active<br />
members and professionals.<br />
