The atmosphere was relaxed as guests danced late into the night – around 500 people came to Paderborn to celebrate the 50th birthday of Karlie proprietor Gerd Blaschke. “Cool” bands and soloists turned the third floor of the Heinz-Nixdorf-MuseumsForum into a disco for the evening. The guests included various suppliers and other business associates from Germany and abroad as well as employees of the company.
