Coming together when you can’t get together

Since our Summer Family Day for 2020 was canceled due to the pandemic, we had to be creative in finding a new way to surprise our colleagues and say thank you for all their hard work and dedication.

We started off with beautiful tulips: it was the perfect way to send some positivity and sunshine to everybody’s homes. We sent out Easter bread for Easter, a Pathé movie package for snuggling up on the couch on lazy summer days, and an autumn package with some hot chocolate and other goodies to get us through the colder days.

Every year, our teams organize inspiring team-building events. Since this was not physically possible in 2020, we again had to be creative and organize such team events online. For example, we set up online pub quizzes, online Friday afternoon drinks, and online lunch meetings. For these events, it was possible to reserve lunch packages, celebratory drinks packages or coffee & tea packages. This was really fun and we’re proud of what we achieved—but we can’t wait to organize live events again!
