GDI

Had the privilege today to attend another conference in the afternoon. "Smart Business Days - Digital Transformation" at the GDI. Very much liked the presentation of the Flyer CEO about their digital transformation (Flyer is a successful e-Bike brand).

The GDI conference building is also very inspriring from an architectural point of view and because of its location. High above the lake of Zurich and part of a big public park area.

"The GDI Gottlieb Duttweiler Institute is an independent think-tank and the oldest organisation of its kind in Switzerland. It is located in Rüschlikon, near Zurich.

Established on 1 September 1963, the research institute was conceived by and named after the founder of Migros, Gottlieb Duttweiler.
