To be ILI
„To be ILI“ means traveling far to reinvigorate innovation once again. It means vocation, commitment and passion. We are a highly selected taskforce with absolute focus: where we sense the innovation pulse, we actively start the conversation.
There are lions in the zoo. And there are lions in the wilderness. A lion in the wild is constantly hunting for prey. It constantly activates all its senses in order to be able to act with the right strategy when an opportunity arises. Therefore it is awake, alert and agile. A lion in the zoo loses its important hunting instinct gradually due to the guaranteed food supply. It is no longer constantly focused on picking up the scent of prey.
