 "In 1985 the first Munich Kolloquium took place at the Institute for Machine Tools and Industrial Management (iwb) of the technical University of Munich. The feedback of the various industries was compelling. Many enquiries where received by iwb, that could not be carried out solely by the institute. This encouraged us to bring ideas to reality, which had only been thought through in theory before. Simply spoken, we wanted to transfer ideas into success. Looking back this was the core idea for us to found a company. The success of ifp since 1986 proves our topics to be rightly chosen.  You can only take advantage of opportunities if you are willing to take certain risks. With the right mixture of outstanding people, innovative practices and the maximum possible motivation these risks can be managed very well. This is the guiding idea that drives us since the foundation of ifp."
