With the latest acquisitions in rapidly growing Eastern European markets and the vastly expanding hotel business, he once more demonstrated his ambition and dedication to the sustainable growth of our tourism business. I want to thank him for his outstanding work over the last decade.

Today\u2019s tourism market requires fast responses to disruptions, as the flight situation showed once more this summer.

Building one strong corporate culture will be fundamental to this process.<\/q><\/p>\n<p>Moving jointly in the same direction \u2013 with one strategic core and stronger global visibility \u2013 will also require defined guiding principles and a corporate culture that attracts international talent.<strong> Boris Schnabel,<\/strong> CFO Group, said: <q>Our Group strategy will guide our direction and define our joint targets for future growth and profitability.
