He supports many interesting projects. For an example he´s the honorary chairman of the Czech Special Olympics Movement.

The personal decision for taking a part in the jury:

"The Czech Businesswomen Award" competition addresses female enterprisers independently on the size of the firm and all over the Republic. I was taken by the idea of drawing attention to the effort of women, who decided to carry business and achieved outstanding results in the field of their activity. I also like the clearly defined objective criteria for selection of potential candidates."
