Les Fontaines: Capgemini Invent has a unique training environment just outside of Paris, where we can immerse ourselves in thought‑leadership, share knowledge and build capabilities that will help us and our clients to succeed. We hold monthly showcases of our digital transformation initiatives, sharing knowledge and showing off how the power of technology is impacting our clients. There are monthly team drinks, and it’s a chance to connect face‑to‑face with the wider team over a few drinks in the city. The monthly team breakfasts give you a different, more relaxed setting to meet up in the office to hear from the leadership, meet colleagues and discuss the trends and insights within the market. Team away days are always a chance to connect with the team, have fun and learn something new.
