Istvan Joos

Founder

“I was born to do this”, says Joos Istvan about his job as founder of the internet portal “Szivesseg Közöesseg”. His job is to guard the organization’s direction and to empower people to fulfill their talents. Advices to his 14 year old ego? “The big thing I learned is not to give advices. There is no wrong decision, no wrong direction.”
