We wrapped up our 10th global offsite in Milan. The focus this year was simple: ownership.
Real conversations, clear decisions, and a team that cares about the work as much as the outcome.
We also took our usual chaotic group photo. Tradition matters.

You're not getting a deal. You're being liquidated in installments.
