Get a blast of the EOY Town Hall experience
Our End of Year Finance Town Hall was one for the ages.
Lots of fun, great connections and every team hitting the dress-up theme Winter Wonderland big time.
The Christmas tree activity was a true testament to teamwork, as groups came together to assemble and decorate a tree in just 15 minutes. Moments like these remind us of the power of community and connection. We hope you had the chance to meet someone new or reconnect with a familiar face.
Here's to more of the same in 2025.
