BEST is a voluntary and non-profit European organisation founded by technical students based on their needs and aspirations. Since 1989, we have been strengthening the connection between universities, companies and students, thus supporting the latter in achieving their full professional potential.
We understand that being able to interact with different cultures is an essential quality of a future engineer, therefore we encourage students to broaden their international experience and offer them the opportunity to practise their adaptability to unknown situations. Through its vision, BEST empowers diversity and brings students together under the same goals.
Our mission to develop students has materialised in the shape of various non-technical skills acquired and trained through our events. We provide an environment which stimulates creativity, rewards self-improvement and enriches personal skills, all of these converging into a constant source of inspiration and motivation.

BEST General Assembly is the largest and most important gathering in our organisation, bringing together more than 400 students from the most prestigious technical universities and engineering schools in Europe. The international management, the leaders of our working teams and of all local BEST groups will discuss vital issues and make decisions with great impact on the future of our organisation.
Seven days of intense work, presentations and evaluations will be preceded by an Official Opening Day, dedicated entirely to our partners. Various activities, discussion groups, workshops, as well as an international job fair are bound to create a platform of career opportunities and studying programmes which will enable company representatives to directly target the innovative and internationally-minded students from all Europe.
Also including the anniversary of 25 years since the foundation of BEST, this year’s General Assembly will be enveloped in a celebration of the incessant effort and dedication of our members, who continually strive to push further the organisation.

Marking the beginning of the 33rd BEST General Assembly, the Official Opening Day creates a framework of education and career-related topics by gathering representatives from universities, companies and other entities which cooperate with us in our actions.
Institutions, partners and corporations are gladly welcome to take part in this challenge and become an active element in our endeavours to provide career support to the students. It is also a great context to get to know BEST, to witness our ways of work and to interact with our motivated members.
During the Official Opening Day companies will connect with more than 300 BEST members and 100 European students interested in their professional future, in an environment conceived especially to fulfill both employers’ and potential employees’ needs: BEST Career Day. The participants will attend workshops, presentations and discussions meant to highlight the latest job offers and hiring opportunities in fields of technology, innovation, management, marketing and many more.
