"I have been asked several times in Germany how we have managed to be one of the most popular pavilions at the Expo 2010. The enthusiasm people have been displaying shows us that our philosophy of presenting complex issues in simple terms has a real appeal for the audience here. Furthermore, six months of Expo and over 4 million visitors at the Germany Pavilion's "Balancity" - meaning, a city in balance - have not only resulted in rave reviews. Beyond that, there have been countless unforgettable moments between our staff and visitors, while business relations were taken to a deeper level between sponsors and their partners, and intercultural relations were deepened between artists and performers. That is just what an Expo is for. I am thankful for the support of all the people that made this possible."
