Written by The success of The Global Economic Symposium 2011 would not have been possible without the highly motivated team of the volunteers! Everyone did a splendid job in ensuring the smooth operation of this internationally highly renowned summit of brilliant experts and Nobel Laureates from society, politics and economy. The following statements were made by Global Economic Volunteers.
“Ganz besonders hat mir der Teamgeist in der Helfercrew gefallen: Alle haben an einem Strang gezogen. Und man hat viele nette Leute kennen gelernt 
.” (Dennis Steffens)
“Being guided by Viola and Tom, who did a tremendous job in organizing this crowd of 90 highly motivated volunteers and always answering all our questions, we as volunteers, were more than willing to put in great effort to make the GES a huge success. To my mind it was a privilege to be able to listen to global perspective solution proposals for some of the most urgent problems of today and the future. Working in this extraordinary team, the GES 2011 provided me with many unforgettable impressions and so I would like to thank Viola and Tom as well as the rest of the volunteers. You guys were great!” (Phillip Reichel)
“The GES delivered a vast of ideas – oftentimes worth to be discussed in a more intense way than it could be done in a few days. Besides these thought kick-offs I gained beneficial experiences and unique impressions as a volunteer.” (Malte Hoffmann)
