Extreme close-up of violin Swiss life sciences giant Roche is sponsoring 100 students to take part in a week-long arts event in Salzburg, Austria. This is all about innovation!

The aim is to encourage students to engage in a new and unconventional way of working together and in so doing to explore the concepts of creativity and innovation in the arts, music and science.

"Innovation is not just the key to success in our industry", commented Franz B. Humer, Chairman of Roche's Board of Directors, "there are many areas in life where people have to be willing to discover and embrace new things. The seeds of progress and innovation are sown in people's minds, and our aim is to foster a climate of creativity, openness and listening in which students are encouraged to explore unfamiliar paths and try new things."
