Last Monday, June 20th, we had the honor of hosting&nbsp;a webinar with **Thomas Allweyer** ,&nbsp;the renowned BPMN expert, active Bonita community member (_thomas.allweyer_), and author of a bestseller introduction to BPMN.

During this webinar, Thomas showed us some examples that applied the following advanced BPMN concepts:

➡️ Subprocesses and Call Activities  
➡️ Loops and Multi-Instance Activities  
➡️ Message Flow and Process Collaboration

Check out the **community projects** that he shared with us for the&nbsp;occasion! They are 100% executable on Bonita Community Edition. Don't hesitate to use them as the basis of your own models!

Our international **audience asked the following questions** :&nbsp;

❓What would you recommend to learn more on BMPN?  
❓(Message flow and process collaboration) What happens if the message is not received due to unavailability or network problems?  
❓Why use BPMN when the solution can be developed in a programming language? Why and when to use business process? What is the added value?
