BEST Xanthi

Local BEST Group Xanthi. For members, alumni, contacts, and partners of BEST Xanthi. BEST, Board of European Students of Technology is a constantly growing non-profit and non-political organization. Since its foundation in 1989, BEST has been providing communication, co-operation, and exchange opportunities for students all over Europe. 97 Local BEST Groups in 34 countries are creating a growing, well-organized, powerful, young, and innovative student network. With more than 3500 members involved in the day-to-day development of our services, our events and initiatives reach almost one million people. BEST promotes "Empowered diversity", and adheres to this vision by helping European students to become more internationally minded, to reach a better understanding of different cultures, and to acquire the ability to work in a global environment. BEST strongly invests in people, and assists in developing themselves to their full potential. Students are given the opportunity to broaden their knowledge of topics that complement their technical education. BEST provides the context in which students can meet and share knowledge by organizing academic courses, engineering competitions, leisure events, educational symposiums, training events, and cultural exchanges. On the other hand, BEST also strives to broaden the job market horizons through career-related events (job fairs, company days, workshops) and an international career center and operates within the triangle ‘university – students – companies’ to form a link between these partners. Last but not least, BEST has developed its own training system; therefore members have the opportunity to improve their skills and knowledge by participating in training events on technical and soft skills.
