• BDG generated one first client during the first 6 months of representation (much in this field!).
• The event on the trade fair in Berlin turned out to become THE most successful one in the history of the company in Germany.
• BDG managed to arrange 18 c-level meetings within 3 days that lead to numerous contacts and negotiations.
