The innovative format and unconventional selection process quickly captured public attention, attracting a high number of applicants.\n\nAs a natural outcome, the selected students expressed a strong desire for ongoing exchange and deeper engagement. To meet this demand, he introduced the Quarterly Crossing Saturday brunch\u2014a quarterly gathering for selected participants and their peers. Over time, this event became synonymous with the community itself and ultimately inspired the name of the network.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span>Thus, the concept of what is now universally known as \"networking\" was already being practiced\u2014long before it became recognized as an essential pillar of a successful career.

Over time, they expanded across Germany and eventually included members of all seniority levels. As members gained professional and leadership experience, and with the continuous influx of new talent, the network evolved organically and dynamically to meet changing needs.\n\nToday, QX offers a diverse portfolio of over 90 formats worldwide, tailored to various career aspirations and life stages.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8220;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8220;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8220;{}&#8220;][et_pb_image src=&#8220;https:\/\/quarterly-crossing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/1995-2.jpg&#8220; _builder_version=&#8220;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8220;{}&#8220;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8220;4.16&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8220;{}&#8220;]<\/p>\n<p><em>Image: A Glimpse into the Past\u2026 The First \u201cQuarterly Crossing\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>QX-Story1995 gr\u00fcndete Thomas Fuchs in Frankfurt ein Institut zur Vermittlung exklusiver Auslandspraktika an Studierende.
