> I would like to hear more about what is the vision of Eiffel community? How can companies be better in open-source contribution? Who is the main competitor of Eiffel?
## What was your main takeaway from the summit?
- Many companies want to use events for interoperability.
- There is a lot of interest in Eiffel in the region
- interesting to meet users from other companies
- Eiffel can be used in different ways and can be adjusted to a company's needs.
- CDE events is still very preliminary, but the idea is good
## Our own comments
- "Choose your own lunch adventure" isn't the best way to promote inter-company mingling.
