"Democracy is above all about discussion and the clash of diverse ideals and ideas. TOPAZ has always been a platform that fulfils this democratic mission through debates with experts, cooperation with foreign partners and TOP 09 members themselves. "

"TOPAZ is a platform for me to revive the debate on social challenges. In collaboration with experts, it cultivates ideas that mirror contemporary issues and formulates strategies to address them. Our involvement in TOPAZ is driven by a vision to contribute to the development of democracy and prosperity in the Czech Republic through thoughtful and sustainable policy solutions. "

"I see TOPAZ as an important part of our party’s brain, where we should find space for reflection, education, and thinking about our future."

"I very much appreciate the work that TOPAZ does, especially in organizing events for the public and the TOP 09 membership base. During interesting debates with independent experts and guests, topics that are currently responding to social events are discussed. The published materials contain proposals for solutions to the major issues of our time."

"I appreciate the work of TOPAZ. It helps mobilize the unique know-how that TOP 09 and its circle of sympathizers undoubtedly have. Their studies, discussions and conferences are a great way to share information, knowledge and find a way to formulate the right policies."

"TOPAZ is a great example of the combination of forces between the European and national level. Together we are connecting politics and civil society, building platforms for new ideas and investing in the future of our next generation to continue working for European unification and preserving our common values."

"I see TOPAZ's activities as an important pillar of democratic society, as a platform for opening relevant discussions on current topics among experts, but also for people across the regions of the Czech Republic, and for gaining the opportunity to navigate the new crises we are facing. "
