At long last – The Global Champions!
A week ago, the WSA community united in Vienna like a multicolored tapestry of blazer clad entrepreneurs. They weren't just there to network, drink coffee and ride the roller coasters of the Prater. They were there to understand the winning projects, and to assess them in the friendly competition of the Global Champions. And after much pitching, Q&A, and deliberation, the Global Champions have been selected!
