However, organizing a team retreat surfaced a yearning for a locale to bridge geographical divides and nurture camaraderie. Montepulciano, Italy beckoned, and with Smartway at the helm, they embarked on a journey into extraordinary team bonding realms.

Montepulciano: A backdrop for team bonding

The charm of Montepulciano went beyond its picturesque landscapes. It melded the contemporary with the traditional, aligning with TrustLayer’s vision of intertwining the digital with the personal. “Why not choose a more characteristic location?” mused Vincenzo Acinapura, the Italian co-founder. The rustic allure promised a setting for the team to converge beyond screens. “I wanted to give my colleagues the opportunity to meet” shared Vincenzo, underlining the potential for indelible bonds.

As the team delved into their retreat, Montepulciano’s tranquility and Smartway’s meticulous agenda allowed a focus on team bonding. They navigated engaging discussions against a serene backdrop. Maksim Sinik, a team veteran, appreciated the blend of productivity and leisure. “We were productive, had fun, and the place was just perfect” he reminisced.
