## Elevating communication, cultivating a vibrant community, and bolstering collaboration among network members and volunteers with workplace from MetA.
Founded in Kiel, Germany, [ParTCoN](https://partcon.org/) is a consulting company that advises on construction projects within the healthcare sector. Their team of experts combines well-founded professional competence in the clinical field and many years of experience in project management for large-scale construction projects.
With ParTCoN's vast network of members and volunteers dispersed nationwide, they identified the necessity for an innovative solution that would nurture a robust sense of community and connectivity.
Their goal was to shift from time-consuming email communications and high-cost in-person meetings towards a more mobile-first strategy equipped with real-time video chats. They needed to be able to communicate among members, regardless of their location and what activities they were up to - whether they were on a mountain, hiking, in the office, or on the go. ParTCoN needed a central place to go as their stores expanded and as more volunteers needed accurate real-time feedback and reporting. This is where [Workplace from Meta](https://www.linezero.com/resources/what-is-workplace) comes in.
By adopting Workplace, ParTCoN has simplified communication with partners and volunteers, fostering better **engagement** and **collaboration**. Let's delve into some of the features they are utilizing.

### Fostering Stronger Connections: Live Video & Live Messaging Translation
Workplace has emerged as a cornerstone for knowledge sharing, feedback, and, most importantly, nurturing a community feel among volunteers. Live video provides an "almost-in-person" touch to updates. Workplace live translation aids regional communication, making it timely and cost-effective.
As Rema, President of the Canadian Branch, puts it: "Workplace has transformed that in the last two years because I'm no longer sending things out for translation, waiting for it to get back."
