Sir Geoffrey Mulcahy, formerly CEO of the UK trading group Kingfisher, is the first recipient of the European DIY Lifetime Award. This was presented to him by Manfred Maus and Otmar Hornbach at the first Home Improvement Forum, which was organised in Vienna by EDRA and Fediyma. The two-day forum, which featured around 15 presentations and round-table discussions, attracted just under 320 delegates.
