SCS food for thought: nature's strategies with Dr Erwin Thoma
Despite difficult circumstances, the SCS Denkanstoss was held in the auditorium of Technopark Zurich in compliance with current federal requirements. The large audience listened attentively to Erwin Thoma's impressive presentation. It became clear how much we can learn from nature and its "ways of doing things", both for everyday business and our personal lives.
