Dear Friends,

I am currently preparing for the next WBG Expert Talk on the 26th. I started this format during the pandemic to keep the dialogue going when all events had to be cancelled. Now we can meet in person again, but one of the original ideas of the virtual roundtable still makes a lot of sense to me: giving my readers the opportunity to ask questions about articles directly to the authors. Go to bodospower.com/experttalk to find out, which contributions from the last 3 issues I'm going to discuss this time. I'll see you then!

Find all my magazines from 2006 on in our free archive on bodospower.com.
Do not miss our Chinese version bodospowerchina.com.
There is no better way to communicate. We all share one world.
As a publisher I serve the world: one magazine, on time, every time.

Best Regards,

Bodo Arlt editor@bodospower.com
