Our Journey
From 2013 to present
We started on the field in 2013 supporting diverse individuals, in diverse business fields, within diverse professional environments. We started as a capacity building social venture.
It was on the field where we explored the challenges of professional development and where we discovered the spectrum of diverse cognitive requirements of the world of work and of entrepreneurship. Since 2013 we have run workshops, mentored people, set-up communities for mutual development support. We also studied, consulted experts and created our own L&D models which we tested out on the field.
Thus, gradually and naturally, we evolved into a learning & development agency for organizations with the required knowledge, with a tested-out innovation capacity as well as with a valuable maturity which enable us to tackle key L&D challenges for employers, freelance professionals, and entrepreneurs.
In parallel, we continue our capacity building activity for good through our AELIA-4-Good activity
