Each year the members of the ICV international work group, controllers of many European countries are working for one company. We help to develop our "target-company" and will also learn ourselves to be better partners in our company.

What has been the experience of our host for 2015, Mr. Lukasz Janus, owner of Nomaxtrading, a polish company for meat nets:

"We would like to say thank you to all of the ICV team as we are highly impressed with their engagement, dedication and hard work. They are wonderful, open and cheerful group of people who’s ambition leaves a strong lasting impression. The team was able to quickly ascertain our strengths and weaknesses which we hadn’t seen or didn’t want to see. Through this joint cooperation the ICV team had a very positive input on our business.

Thank you one more time! "

Advantages for the “target company”:

Companies from all countries in Europe may apply to be considered for this ICV support and will enjoy normally very expensive advantages.

- opening the sight for new solutions

- learning from the experience of an international team, consisting of experienced experts in controlling / consulting

Besides hotel, meeting rooms and meals, the company will not incur costs. If several applications are submitted, ICV corporate members will have priority.

The work group's leadership team will make the final decision about the target company.
A brief summary of the work group's results – in agreement with the target company – will be published on the ICV's home page.
