Our Culture

Using a football analogy, we are more in line with the team ethics of Diego Simeone's Atletico Madrid than that of Florentino Perez's Real Madrid. In a few words: No Galacticos here, the Star is the Team.

That team is a mix of youth and experience. It is diverse (7 different nationalities at the moment) and its members are hungry to learn, grow and share.

We champion a stimulating environment where autonomy, ownership, initiative and exchange are valued and encouraged.

Working hard and having fun in the process: this is how we want to live our adventure together.
