"The MALT congress bridges the gap between B2B and B2C and enabled us to meet different industry suppliers from all over the world to establish contacts within an intimate yet professional setting. In order to meet specific business needs, companies have to create differentiated experience while looking at the cost, value creation and return on investment. MALT congress provides a platform to discuss about the strategies that can be adopted into our business"
