The point is that some months ago to moved to a new office. A bit bigger. Big tables and great snacks, bla, bla. And, you know, the 4Geeks face changed a 100%. That's exactly what your company need to do to strong their company culture.

But, why is important the company culture? Because of the long-term vision. Public confidence. Easy to hire top talent.
