After Dorland went global, Hansen led 19 Dorland offices in 17 European countries between 1995 and 2007 under the umbrella of Grey Global Group/WPP.

In the early 1990s, Dorland took on a pioneering role in liberalising the energy markets with clients such as BEWAG/Vattenfall, EnBW and GASAG and, together with the e-plus service, advanced the development of the mobile communications market. Other clients included Honda, [2] Procter & Gamble, [3] Volvo, [4] BMW Eastern Europe and Lufthansa.

In 2014, Stefan Hansen retired from managing the international agency to focus on his own projects. In doing so, he removed Dorland from the Grey/WPP Network [6] and integrated it into his investment company (Private Pier Industries), which he founded in 2011 [7] together with Hendrick Melle of which he is an Executive Director.

[1] Alongside dorland, the promotion agency Promotion For You and the music publisher Neue Rianoni Music is also a part of the group. Due to its close ties to Ireland, the agency has several branches and subsidiaries on Emerald Island.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Church of Saint Sava</span> Church in Belgrade, Serbia

The Church of Saint Sava is a Serbian Orthodox church which sits on the Vračar plateau in Belgrade, Serbia. It was planned as the bishopric seat and main cathedral of the Serbian Orthodox Church. The church is dedicated to Saint Sava, the founder of the Serbian Orthodox Church and an important figure in medieval Serbia. It is built on the presumed location of St. Sava's grave. His coffin had been moved from Mileševa Monastery to Belgrade. The coffin was placed on a pyre and burnt in 1595 by Ottoman Grand Vizier Sinan Pasha. Bogdan Nestorović and Aleksandar Deroko were finally chosen to be the architects in 1932 after a second revised competition in 1926–27. This sudden decision instigated an important debate in interwar Yugoslavia which centered around the temple's size, design and symbolic national function. This was accompanied by a sizeable increase in the base area of the ambitiously conceived project. The new design departed from the competition guidelines issued in 1926, and was to replicate the dimensions and architecture of Hagia Sophia.
