Impressions:

Shooting time in Walldorf! Our team was shooting some short videos to show the scenarios and highlights of the latest product version.

We’ve also set-up a small merchandise shop.

During the Q&A we also had a lot of fun.

 

Overall it was a great and successful forum – even though only virtually ?!

We’d like to thank all participants, customers, partners, and colleagues who joined and contributed.

Thank you!

Stay safe!

Best regards,
