Most clients request a "private" Learning Expedition, typically for their top-level executives committee. Many executives teams come for multiple Learning Expeditions and/or subsequently sent over groups of managers (e.g. Leroy Merlin, 17 times ; France Telecom, 14 times for a total of 480 of their "Top 600").

But several hundred individual participants have also taken part in inter-company seminars, particularly ones organized in collaboration with:

	APM (10 Learning Expeditions)
	ASFOs
	CNPF/MEDEF
	CRC (6 Learning Expeditions)
	CEFRI (4 Learning Expeditions)
	MMM
	MSC
	Philippe Souty Consultant

Other inter-company seminars are organized directly by WDHB on topics of particular interest in business today: e-commerce (since 1995), impact of new information technologies on training and consulting, etc.

The above list includes the names of organizations that have partnered with WDHB for a Learning Expedition, but not the names of the individual companies that participated (primarily small businesses).
