TWIST Events

For around 30 years, TWIST has offered a platform for high-caliber exchange on current topics in a traditionally friendly setting. This is where representatives from academia (universities) and practice (companies) come together with TWIST consultants.

Our TWIST expertforums

The Experts as Guests at TWIST

Our TWIST expertforums, which have been held annually since 2004, are good examples of this. They serve both as further training on current topics and as an opportunity for HR experts to exchange experiences. The 2–3-hour program includes a presentation by a renowned speaker, followed by a hands-on workshop in which the specific implications of the topic for everyday HR work and the resulting possible measures are discussed. In addition to some TWIST contract partners, the participants (ca. 40-60 people) are mainly HR experts from medium-sized and large companies who appreciate the invigorating exchange in an informal atmosphere.
