Students from the ESSEC-MANNHEIM EMBA Program Visit Wison Group

On July 17, 2008, a delegation from the ESSEC-MANNHEIM Executive MBA Program visited Wison Shanghai Headquarters. The delegation consists of more than 40 EMBA students (most of which are senior management staff of international companies such as BASF) and several teachers from the CEIBS (China Europe International Business School). Apart from Wison, the delegation was also scheduled to visit Bayer China and Meters/bonwe.
 

Deputy general manager Mr. Ma Jian from Wison Engineering warmly welcomed the delegation. Then Wison personnel gave presentations about Wison's 10-year history, achievements, strategies of future development and Wison's distinctive office building. In the Q/A session, Mr. Ma Jian exchanged Wison's ideas with the EMBA students on issues such as business management and environmental protection. The delegation was amazed at Wison's rapid development and greatly appreciated Wison's enterprise responsibility of 'develop the technology to benefit the human-being'.
 

The delegation also showed great interest in Vincent J.F. Huang's solo exhibition -- 'The Last Penguim' -- in Wison's art gallery. Wison's concern for natural environment and humanity, conveyed through the exhibition, earned respect from the EMBA students.
