Marquardt

When Harmony Shanghai team came to us and presented their new project, we said without hesitation that we wanted to be part of this new adventure. Our first experience was unforgettable, not only for the unique and magic moment of the show, but also for the journey that brought us there. Seeing talented individuals coming from such diverse horizon, sharing the same passion, learning together and helping each other’s was a unique moment where we witnessed a team coming together and stretching itself beyond the cultural difference.
