The CEO of the Media-Control company, Karl-Heinz Kögel, honoured Mrs. Hilary Clinton as a role model in her commitment to the rights of women in politics and society all over the world.
Speaking to an audience of over 650 invited guests at the prestigious Convention Center in a snowy Baden-Baden, the chairwoman of the Christian Democrats, Mrs. Angela Merkel, praised Mrs. Clinton as „a woman of superlatives“.
Around 200 guests were invited to the subsequent festivities. Amongst more than 100 famous personalities who walked the red carpet of the 225 meter long catwalk were political VIPs such as Minister Erwin Teufel and former Minister Lothar Späth, as well as Michael Frenzel (CEO of TUI), Joachim Hunold (CEO of Air Berlin), and stars of the international Showbiz: the queen of rock Tina Turner, tennis star Boris Becker, singer Peter Maffay, TV-Star Verona Feldbusch-Pooth and numerous well-known talk masters.
Just as Hilary Clinton showed herself charmed by Baden-Baden, the city with its outstanding atmosphere now as in the past draws personalities from all over the world, as it lends itself in a perfect way to the combination of business with pleasure.
