"Our visit to the Silicon Valley Innovation Center was all about expanding our thinking on how we might innovate and disrupt within our business—and it definitely succeeded. The Silicon Valley mindset is like nothing I’ve encountered in my 40-year career. Every place we visited demonstrated a unique, business-savvy approach to problem-solving and innovation that was both intellectual and practical."

"This week in California with our business partners from Germany and Austria has been an incredible experience. It was fascinating to explore the Silicon Valley startup ecosystem and witness how ideas are born, nurtured, and executed here. One major takeaway is the potential to adapt this startup mindset into scalable, replicable business models. Visiting companies like Google and LinkedIn was especially inspiring. I highly recommend this trip to anyone—it’s an eye-opening experience that broadens your perspective."
