Most of the global industry leaders are multinational corporations headquartered in the US, the UK and Western Europe. Local leaders from other regions watch how global innovations shape new market trends to implement them in their local markets.
Our executive study tours, done in the format of private visits to offices, factories, warehouses and distribution centers of the leading global companies in retail, healthcare, pharma, telecom, banking, FMCG manufacturing, industrial manufacturing, delivery and logistics, and other sectors allow their participants to learn from their business models and know-how before they become publicly available.
The knowledge that our participants received from such tours in the past allowed many of them to become undisputed market leaders in their countries, significantly increasing their revenue and profits. On the webinar on April 30th, 2024 you will learn about the ways how you can source that knowledge for your company as well as will hear the success stories of companies who did that in the past.
