Sharen'Go is the community project initiated by Argia-Engineering, aiming to organize, explain and work on principles of sharing between differents companies in the context of IT but oriented on the core business (not IT related). In this context, we intensely use models to build the reference frame of Sharen'Go business components.

Last week, during Sharen'Go Summer University, i was speaker during 3 days on workshop to present tools used to build new components and projects.
