BÄKO Workshop

"The extraordinarily high degree of attention paid by the 450 participants was, in itself, conspicuous proof that your remarks not only found great interest, but also that our participants were able to relate to them. But, above all, the impressive applause following your speech was a particular proof of our audience's enthusiasm. In the 16 years of our line of congresses, we can merely recall Reinhold Messner and the balloonist, Professor Bertrand Piccard being given such prolonged applause. A huge success for you!"
