Xmas parties are always a bit of a gamble with what you get. Throw in a newly formed team, a bridge climb [especially for the one with height fright amongst us], and a heat wave - and you've got the perfect recipe for an unforgettable adventure.
With all that said, Zeligate's very first Christmas Party couldn't have been any better.
Spending so much time together professionally is one thing.
Meeting everyone's partner for the first time while conquering heights and navigating a bridge climb added a whole new dimension to our team dynamic.
The team has worked like crazy, literally around the clock, so spending a few hours away from the screen and chatting about everything but pixels and codes was exactly what the doctor ordered.
This did not go unrecognised, so the inaugural Zeli Awards topped off the night!
The winners in their respective categories are:
🏆 The Quint Essential Aussie - Wayne Macchion
🏆 'Just do it' - Laxman Khatri
🏆 The Swiss Army Knife - Erik van der Neut
🏆 The Future Visionary - Dongjie Wu
🏆 Keep It All Together - Sam Naidoo
🏆 Growth & Future Leader - Pritesh Padmanabhan
🏆 Steering the ship as we're shooting for the stars - Rob Olver
🏆 Founder and award giver wasn't eligible for an award but deserves a big shout out for rocking the worst Xmas jacket (slide 2 is proof!!): Denver Naidoo 🌴
🏆 Lighting for making things happen - Petra Zink
Very excited and refreshed to head into a full-on Xmas period, refining the platform, and tweaking a few more features before going into the official beta in January.
A big shout-out to everyone who's been part of the journey and for embracing the last few months, which were a whirlwind at best.
Here's to a big 2024! 🎄✨ 🚀
