Events

The club organizes 10 to 15 member events throughout the year to a program voted on by member companies based on their needs and current issues.

The range of meeting formats allows the inclusion of a range of expert presentations, company testimonials, working groups and exchanges of best practice among members.

Meetings and case studies

Several events each year go in-depth on international mobility topics with presentations from experts and member companies who share their experience.

During case studies, members work in groups on practical exercises. Experts are available to support members in solving each case and to offer solutions for questions that arise. Case studies allow you to review and update your knowledge.

Meetings are also organized in Lille and in Lyon once a year.
