The fusion programme was a great experience allowing me to meet new people and get better overview on what is happening in the sector. It, of course, requires some extra time, but is definitely worth it! All the effort which ABSL invests in networking is adorable, all sessions and initiatives, follow-ups and interactive ideas made the programme interesting and absolutely an experience to remember and recommend. Thank you ABSL!

Fusion Leader program gives you the opportunity to cooperate and create something new, fresh and amazing for the sector with other leaders. In our case it was a podcast, which you can find on Spotify under the name The Box of Chocolate.
