Successful global industry leaders owe their success to innovation, advanced business models, know-how as well as talent management – a commitment evident in IT, technology, manufacturing, electronics, pharma, logistics, retail and all other sectors. Local companies across the world strive to replicate this success, investing years in developing their own solutions or emulating global leaders.

But, instead of spending years on discovering, local companies can gain access to that information directly from global industry leaders that do share some of their business secrets with non-competing local companies across the world. That allows them to build local partnerships in various markets, while also learning from their best practices. That is the primary goal of the Executive Study Tours to leading global companies that we organize for local businesses from across the globe.

The innovation tour provided an excellent opportunity to engage with managers from global companies. During our meeting with Google managers, we gained valuable insights into establishing innovative units within large corporations, also we had the privilege of gathering information from representatives of Facebook, PayPal, and many other influential companies. One of the most valuable takeaways from our visit to Silicon Valley was a glimpse into the unique environment where individuals are shaping the new world economy.

Oleg Suvorov, CEO at Food Plant
The most surprising aspect for me was the remarkable productivity and the eagerness of employees at leading innovative companies in the USA to share their knowledge. Witnessing a fresh perspective on internal work organization and team motivation was enlightening. Following the tour, I implemented numerous elements that I had gained, thanks to the insights from the tour.
