My 2nd trip with the Argonauts was also a positive experience. As a Lead Argonaut I was allowed to be part of this learning journey in my own field. The themes Explore, Learn & Share were also steady during this journey. Highly recommended to share knowledge in a relaxed atmosphere in a completely different way.

Very inspiring and in any case a must for everyone to occasionally make time to go that extra mile! What happens in Copenhagen, should NOT stay in Copenhagen! 😉

Bart Teuwen
Algemeen Directeur Certimed
Very positive experience. Many things learned and seen on the spot, also during conversations with other travel companions. In a few weeks after returning home, I had implemented things as a business or had already contacted people I had met. A very nice initiative to break the work routine with people from different disciplines and travel together to get to know other horizons.
