Recently #TeamViamo came together for our annual global meetup: ViaFest This year, ViaFest brought together over 180 Viamoans digitally, tuning in from 38 countries. While lots of strategic and important discussions were had, our 'fun' team also made sure that we had mini-dance breaks, the opportunity to share laugh out loud work moments, and some of our team got super creative and performed an entire song about Viamo! While we couldn't be together in person, we did our best to bring the feeling of camaraderie in real-life to Zoom. Here is our first ever Zoom team photo!
