At the MCFA annual general assembly, held in London on 28th February of 2015, the quorum was not reached, therefore votes on the agenda items could not be validated. Hence, an extraordinary general assembly for MCFA members will be held in Eindhoven, on 29th of April of 2015 at 13:30 pm local time. The meeting will take place at Grand Café De Zwarte Doos. The Grand cafe De Zwarte Doos can be found within walking distance of the Eindhoven Central Station, right at the beginning of the Campus, just before the Vertigo building with the TU/e logo on the roof.
