Yonder Innovation Day

Grow by feeding your curiosity and exploring new ideas and technologies.

At Yonder, innovation is integral to our growth, both for individuals and as a team, and for the company as a whole. That’s why we create space for our colleagues to take a break from their usual routine and focus on exploring new technologies, diving into new ideas, and pausing their routines to go on new work adventures. We want our colleagues to stay creative and think outside of the box. Innovation is not an afterthought; we create specific times where everyone is encouraged to explore their ideas freely.

Our most recent Innovation Day was just that: a whole day dedicated to scouting new technologies, frameworks, tools, or side projects. These projects focus on different industries and are completely self-driven.

No pressure. No rules. Just curiosity, creativity, and the freedom to experiment.

👥 working individually or in small teams, whatever felt right.

The atmosphere was great. During the event, everyone was relaxed yet deeply engaged, and overall, it felt more personal. To get your creative juices flowing and start thinking outside the everyday box, you need a different type of atmosphere. It isn’t about a brief or a deadline. Sometimes, it’s simply about emptying your mind, letting go of daily requests and deadlines, and allowing your mind to explore new possibilities. This enables you to experiment and follow new paths.

We will continue to develop some of the experiments, while others will remain as experiments. Nothing ventured, nothing gained; all experiments are worth exploring. Thinking creatively about solutions to challenges is an essential part of our work, so we must also focus on this aspect of our colleagues’ personal development. This makes Yonder a better partner for our clients and a great place to work.
