The summit was a wonderful meeting of kindred CoP spirits. Together, we wove all of our individual experience and expertise into a rich tapestry of collective new insights. Although I participated from a distance, instead of "there" I felt very much "here". It's been the best hybrid event I have attended.

The COP Summit is an event, rich with inspiring conversations with like-minded colleagues from all over the world. It is an unique blend of Etienne & Bev’s hospitality, which creates an open and friendly atmosphere, where we could share and learn and a dynamic environment of sessions and private conversations, from which new ideas and insights emerge and electrify the air, enabling the participants to pick & mix to what relates to their own context. It was interesting for me to see how social learning and Communities of Practice have made their way into so many industries and sectors like technology, education, humanitarian work, sports and environmental sustainability just to name a few and how we share similarities across our journeys.

It's well worth the effort to attend the CoP summit. I found it to be an exciting opportunity to expand my horizons across the social learning landscape, and to make meaningful connections with others who are cultivating communities of practices across various sectors and industries. It was a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend it!
