SOFTSWISS, an international tech company with over 15 years of expertise in iGaming, celebrates its recognition at the Global Eventex Awards, the world’s leading accolade in the sphere of events and experiential marketing.
The Global Eventex Awards recognise outstanding achievements and creativity in event organisation. For the 2024 awards, winners were selected from over 1,200 applications spanning 62 countries and six continents. Among outstanding competitors such as Lufthansa, Unilever, Vodafone, Cisco, and many others, SOFTSWISS’ Values Fest won bronze in the Corporate Event category.
The Values Fest corporate event, which brings recognition to SOFTSWISS, took place in Turkey in the autumn of 2023 and united more than 1,200 employees from 26 countries. The three-day festival featured a diverse program with over 50 activities, ranging from team-building exercises and professional public speaking training to amateur sports and cyber sports competitions.
The Values Fest was aimed to rally the team around the company’s core values: ‘We see people’, ‘We care’, ‘We embrace changes’, ‘We push for customer success’, and ‘We excel’. All activities were arranged with these principles in mind. Each day of the festival featured engaging movements to strengthen the bonds between employees and management, fostering a sense of unity and collaboration, providing a platform for knowledge sharing and open communication.
A corporate expert conference with technical and general panels deserves special mention. Employees shared their knowledge and professional experience and had the opportunity to perform on the big stage in front of like-minded colleagues.
