[00:48:02] S0: So let's say there are some Europeans or some US investors listening. We know that there is some summer in Europe is coming. Very nice in Italy. I've been many times and some of them might travel there and they would like to meet you. They say, okay, this is a great Italian guy. It's a fascinating business what they're building. They're still in early days. Where they can meet you to to reach out and maybe introduce themselves? [00:48:24] S1: We used to meet them in our main facility where I'm located now, which is in Southern Milan, logistics facility where we also like to to show our operations, so the warehousing and logistics in general. We we have lots of physical meetings even from our retails. So we give them the opportunity to spend a couple of hours with with us because we we feel lots of responsibility when it's about retail investing even a few thousand euro in our company. So we feel really this kind of responsibility. And what we can offer in exchange is transparency. So feel free if anyone is willing to come and visit us. It's a it's a... We're more than happy to to open the door and and spend some hours talking about us and about our business. But the branch is in Cremona, which is middle way between Milan and and Bologna, which is the city of Stradivari. [00:49:28] S0: Okay. [00:49:29] S1: And in fact, we are celebrating our... The twenty years of Lindbergh in the museum of the violin in June. Will be a way to to have all the people together. For more than 300 people coming from all over Italy, It will be a very good event.
