Participants' voices

The BTM program is highly inspirational and hits the key issues that we as an industrial company are facing in global markets.

It also gave me the innovative ideas I need to manage the market transformations and new realities we face. I was particularly happy that I could test my own ideas by talking to the expert faculty and to managers of other companies in similar industries and receive their valuable feedback.

Due to the program’s strong emphasis on hands-on learning, I returned to my company with the knowledge and tools I had been looking for.

When I enrolled in the BTM program, I wanted diverse practical input and an opportunity to challenge my traditional perspective for my work as a portfolio manager in the medtech industry to help me take our business to the next level.
