Opening up the events’ agenda of 2024, KLx organised the K-Tech Fair, gathering more than 100 employees for an afternoon of knowledge sharing, games, and tech entertainment.

The event started with a presentation by Diana Cruz, project lead, who recapitulated what the K-Tech Community is and the benefits that it brings to its participants, KLx, and the partners from the Crédit Agricole Group. The goals, ambitions and roadmap for the year were also disclosed, letting all attendees aware of the initiative's direction in 2024.

Each of the four active K-Tech Communities had its own stand, where the moderators shared knowledge on their area of expertise, promoted games and challenges, and invited everyone to participate in the events throughout the year.

After making a stop at each stand, the participants were challenged to put their knowledge into action, competing for the first place on the KLx-style Trivial game.

The K-Tech Fair saw the presence of the Board of Directors, finishing off with closing remarks by Elizabeth Pugeat, KLx General Manager, who reinforced the importance of this initiative for the company and partners, by focusing on employees' development and professional growth. The K-Tech Community was launched at the end of 2023 with the ambition to bring employees together and share knowledge across all teams.

The current four communities – Agile, DevOps, Java and Testing – take form through the organisation of events, such as the K-Talks and K-Flirts, which gather employees from all hierarchical levels for interactive learning moments.

Apart from seeking to increase the operational efficiency and foster a culture of learning and innovation, this initiative promotes team spirit and disseminates a common purpose among the employees, who have the chance to share their expertise or acquire in-demand skills in the IT market.
