CEO

GS Travnik Machine Factory

It is a great honour to receive the MBFamilias Award. I believe that success is not only about what we achieve for ourselves and our company, but also about what we can do for the people and the community in which we live and work. If, through our actions, we can create opportunities for young people, support sport and culture, preserve part of our heritage, or simply help someone, then our work takes on its true meaning. Above all, this award is an encouragement for me to continue in that direction.
