🚀 Every journey has a beginning. For Orthokey, a company that has been traveling for almost 20 years, the starting point is always the amazing group of people who compose it. 🤝 To deepen connections between our long-standing and new team members, we dedicated some time together to strengthen our bonds. While the official goal was to grow as a team, the reality is that we also took time to celebrate, relax, and have fun! 🎉 🏡 Our retreat in a charming Tuscan farmhouse, surrounded by nature, was filled with sports, laughter, and the perfect atmosphere to recharge and come back energized for the challenges ahead. 💪 Medea Project SPINEKEY SRL
