Networking on the Neckar in Heidelberg

Making connections above the Neckar!

A. Benjamin Sharif and the Wirtschaftsjunioren, the young business leaders’ association, are planning a wonderful event in my hometown and favourite city, Heidelberg. 🫶
A cruise on the Neckar aboard the Königin Silvia, followed by conversations at Jil Rooftop. A great combination of Heidelberg’s unique atmosphere and excellent conversations.

Fun fact: the Königin Silvia was named after Queen Silvia of Sweden, who was born in Heidelberg in 1943. So the ship is not just a flagship on the Neckar, but also a piece of the city’s history. Before the name was officially given, permission had to be requested from the Swedish royal household. Fortunately, it was granted. 😊

Benjamin, on the right in the original photo, supported me as a table captain at last year’s Dinner im Schloss 🏰 — thank you again for that. It is all the nicer that I can support and attend his event this year.

I am really looking forward to 4 October!
