"The course was a very good introduction to the Dutch market.The combination of theory and practical exercises was very useful."
MARKUS LANGNER - MANAGING DIRECTOR, BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT, DACH & NETHERLANDS, CAPITAL DYNAMICS

"Overall I am very pleased with the course - It was a really good update. I came away with a much better understanding about the Dutch market; for example, the course helped me get fully up to speed on the regulatory environment. If courses were offered for the German and Swiss markets I would certainly want to attend those as well."
