🎬 Behind the scenes! 🧐 This is also what planning a team event looks like. Full focus on creating tailor-made experiences for our corporate team events. Here’s how we do it: 1️⃣ Defining the Client Profile: We start by understanding the client - number of guests, the company background, the nature of the event -- fun, educational, or both. 😉 2️⃣ Curating the Program: We visit venues, meet with partners, and scout new locations to craft the perfect event experience. 3️⃣ Creating the Offer: We finalize the master plan 🙌 and details with our client, ensuring every aspect is tailored to their needs. And of course, the best part is executing the event itself! 🎉 Stay tuned for more on that in our upcoming posts. Are you looking for a #meaningful activity for your next team event in #zurich?
