The Pro Manager Master Course also partners with Wageningen University, Imagro, Beekenkamp Ornamentals, Mprise, Klasmann – Deilmann, Van der Valk Systems and Benefits of Nature.
These partnerships guarantee a high level visit programme and give participants ample opportunity to network at CEO level with horticultural leaders from the Netherlands. In addition, participants will need to work out their own vision on the future of horticulture and the role of their own company during this course. Following the visits, meetings, inspirational sessions and feedback of peers and of leading floricultural CEOs, they return to their own country and company, ready to make a difference.
