The red carpet launch of Excellentia at Wetterling Gallery in Stockholm in the end of March 2011 was a great success and a night with many interesting and inspiring ideas, discussions and thoughts.

Our theme was talent and excellence, and we worked hard to express it in every way at the launch. Our cellist, Eva Maria Hux, one of the top cellists in Sweden, created a captivating musical atmosphere for our guests. Meanwhile, the ambience and beauty of the art gallery lent itself perfectly to contemplations on talent. Not only were the eyes and ears treated to excellence, but we also provided fine champagne and tantalizing salmon and pesto pastrami hors d'oeuvres for our guests to enjoy.

Our experts Ronald Jones, John Alexander, and Thomas Lavelle took the stage and initiated the discussion into what talent and excellence mean to them. Each used their own particular expertise to give a new perspective to the topic. Founder and CEO Therése Gedda also came on stage to speak about the company's vision and future, and to thank all the guests for coming and enjoying the event. At the end of the evening each guest received a gift from Excellentia - value cards with tips for succeeding in three main business skill areas.

To summarize the event, it was an evening with talent, a taste of champagne, and pathways to excellence. Thank you so much to everyone who made this night what it was!
