Table Captains at Dinner im Schloss
I really value exchanging ideas with interesting people. And where better to talk than around a shared table? To be honest, I am less keen on rows of seating at business events. They allow more people to fit in, of course, but the conversation tends to be limited to whoever is sitting next to you. That is about it.
Sitting together around a table means you can talk in every direction. Enjoying a wonderful four-course dinner at the same time makes those conversations even better 😊 That is the basic idea behind 🏰 Dinner im Schloss!
The Table Captains at the upcoming event are experts in their fields. The idea is that each participant can choose a table — and therefore a Table Captain — in advance, according to the conversations they would like to have. Their areas of expertise are listed on the 🏰 Dinner im Schloss website 😊
A heartfelt thank-you to all the Table Captains joining us this year. I greatly appreciate their time and effort ❤️ They will be available from the morning programme right through to late evening.
