„Successful companies are innovative and have a strong leadership. Their business model is designed for the long term. With economic vigour they contribute to the development of society. Networking and cross-border cooperation can even foster and enhance this, yet require a good amount of mutual trust and understanding, respect and transparency among partners. Responsible leadership, demonstrated and brought to life by a clear CSR commitment, can make an important contribution.“ Karin Huber’s keynote presentation „Corporate Social Responsibility as a driver for Innovation“ was highly acclaimed among the more than 200 participants, speakers and moderators from 5 countries. They could experience the way easy, confidence-building measures quickly change the atmosphere in a room and what good a conversation can do to build relationships based on mutual understanding and trust.
Numerous highly interesting lectures and discussions contributed significantly to the success of the conference “potenti {ALPE-ADRIA} 15” on November, 24th, 2015 in Velden on Wörthersee. The enormously large potential of the Alpe Adria region is to be raised by cross-border cooperation. The significance of entrepreneurial responsibility and sustainability was fully acknowleged and given great attention by the participants from industry, science and politics.
Conference participants enjoyed getting to know their „neighbours“, by cross-border, cross-language trust building by communication.
