During his opening remarks, Univ. Prof. Robert Breitenecker (Academic Director, Institute for Innovation Management - IFI) spoke on behalf of the JKU and stated how pleased the university is to welcome so many engaged and dedicated students. The students’ three-month stay in Austria kicked off with a cultural tour that included a city tour of Linz and meeting Mayor Klaus Luger. And, of course, a baking class on how to make a Linzer Torte.

Prof. Breitenecker added: "I am sure the group will continue to grow closer and the students will benefit personally and professionally from their unique experience."
