The Business Communities

The Business Communities by Extia are designed to provide a forum for discussion on a wide range of topics, including soft skills, BIM, industry, railways and much more. Experts and enthusiasts take part in these meetings, which are open to Extians, clients, alumni and all those who are curious and want to share or expand their knowledge. The diversity and quality of these events enable us to maintain a high level of expertise among our consultants and to meet our clients' needs, while staying at the cutting edge of trends and state-of-art.

They say it better

Leads, attendees, speakers and organisers, they give you their thoughts on the Business Communities.

Valérian

Extia Consultant

I've attended a few Meetup® Events in person. However, since they went online, my schedule has allowed me to join communities once or twice a week. This format allows me to ask questions, organise tutorials and pick up tips and tricks from others, all in a great atmosphere. So, naturally, it was my turn to share some of my knowledge via videoconference.

Luisa

Technical Expert & Comet' Speaker

Animating the “Positive Collaboration” event with Extia was a superb experience! Not only because of the rich exchanges with Charles for the preparation and organisation, but also because of the dynamic and interactive evening. I am very grateful for the commitment of all the participants, because building a positive collaboration and a better working environment is possible thanks to each and every one of us. That evening, everyone who took part made a difference! Thank you to EXTIA for making it possible, even from a distance.

Lauriane

Manager of the Business Communities

The Business Communities are constantly evolving and adapting so that everyone can exchange ideas, learn and develop their skills. Being part of this challenging environment gives me the opportunity to interact with consultants, HR staff, business managers, etc. and to learn from the experts. Working as part of the Comet' team also gives me the opportunity to come up with new ideas and manage cross-functional projects, thereby contributing to the development and sustainability of the BC. A truly positive personal and professional experience!
