Keynote · 2023

### AppX 5 Years: The Present and the Future.

Networking · 2022

### AppX Rentrée Party.

September marks the return to work, closing cycles and starting new projects and partnerships. On September 15th of 2022, we gathered our team, clients, and close partners for an exclusive networking event, the Rentrée Party 2022.

## Our culture, values and beliefs.

- ### Work-life balance Realistic deadlines, no overtime culture, and real time to switch off. We believe a team with a life outside work builds better products.
- ### Flexible by default The office is an option, not a rule. We work remotely or on-site, and we bring the whole team together at the office at least once a week.
- ### Time around a table We get the team together often, because lunch always tastes better with company. And now and then, it's on AppX!
- ### Always learning Technology never stands still, and neither do we. The best products come from a team that stays curious and keeps learning and growing.

We also have fun

Between one event and the next, the whole team gets together.
