“In addition to providing high-quality education, Wittenborg aims to foster the development of insightful research and the dissemination of knowledge. We are very happy and proud to host the first edition of our Annual Globalisation Conference, centred on themes that are only increasing in importance as the 21st century moves forward. On top of that, we believe that events like this can put Apeldoorn in the spotlight, helping the city to become a centre for intellectual debates and discussions,” he said.
