Thank you IPMA Young Crew for organizing such a wonderful and expert conference.”
“I just love the part to learn from successful and inspiring people! It was great! I hope next time I can attend it properly, this time work didn’t give me enough time to do it as I wanted but as far as I could, it was great.”
