"Together we are stronger, we can also obtain more funding if we collaborate," emphasised Ivo Boscarol, director of the company, amongst other things. According to him, we must be aware that the entire global market is today within reach of the left mouse button. Therefore, we should understand in Europe that all European projects are our common projects, as today our continent is lagging behind the rest of the world in development. Marjan Rožman agrees that Europe is today being overtaken by everyone from the left and right. As he says, today nobody is prepared to take risks.
