Lago di Maggiore, Italy

Since Lilleborg and Unilever collaborate within some business segments (toothpaste for example), I have to be updated on the latest R&D from Unilever to be able to take advantage of this cooperation. As a mean to achieve and attain these benefits I “had” J to go to the annual RBT-meeting. The meeting was located in the north of Italy, at the very beautiful Maggiore Lake. The meeting was well organised and the location was fantastic. To have a meeting at a luxurious resort, with great food and a spa is something I definitely can get used to ;)

I learnt a lot during the two days the conference lasted and I definitely gained some relevant insights in addition to the useful and interesting update of Unilever’s innovation funnel. But it was not all work and no play…The last night of the conference we had a fun and challenging teambuilding activity, a sailing race on Italy’s second biggest lake. My team did not win (we blame the skipper :) ) but it was nice to get to know my “global co-workers” in a more relaxed

and informal setting while enjoying the stunning view of the alps.
