Pre-bauma wrap: Bye from Munich
The two pre-bauma media dialogue days are gone, and I’m trying to get some idea from them of what the big show here in Munich in April might be like. About the only certainty I can come up with is that it will be warmer. These two days are really just intense conversations, usually with […]
