TÜV AUSTRIA Forum and Markus Hengstschläger at the stone center of SCHUBERT STONE
At the TÜV AUSTRIA Forum on September 16, Prof. Dr. Markus Hengstschläger gave a lecture on the topic of "Flexicurity". In front of 150 interested guests from business, media and industry, the well-known geneticist emphasized the importance of promoting innovation and individuality.
Visitors were able to see the uniqueness of our large natural stone slabs for themselves on a subsequent tour of the stone center. The evening ended with culinary delights in the large slab hall and in the historic brick cellar of Villa Schubert.
