We are “Books & Friends”. We are a group of Experts, Leaders and Decision Makers who love sharing valuable and actionable knowledge about the latest P.E.S.T.E.L. themes.
To do this we collaborate with institutions and organizations as well as thinking minds and authors to deliver amazing workshops across Europe.
Our Purpose is to build a meaningful world.
We follow this purpose by sharing knowledge in a friendly way about the latest trends and issues impacting the society, the communities and the economies in which we live.
By doing so, we firmly believe we can make people and leaders aware of the hottest and compelling challenges we will be all going to face in nowadays and tomorrow and try to find answers or ideas to address them.
Books & Friends aims at creating a solid and friendly connection between people and the world of knowledge to make all those individuals who act to change the world for the better more informed, aware and conscious on the latest issues and trends who are impacting the society in which we live.
Thanks to our Community of leaders and authors we create and deliver innovative workshops in the most important European cities by involving institutions, organizations and decision makers.
We strongly believe in the power of turning knowledge into action.
“Knowledge” is the ultimate power today.
