Last week we gathered in Paris for our 2026 Strategy Days. From Monday to Thursday, the whole team finally came together again in one location, learning from each other in workshops and spending quality time.
As we all arrived in Paris in waves, the familiar feeling of seeing each other again set in. Hugs everywhere, excited conversations immediately sprouted, and quickly, the first decks were brought out to be played - and Jess handed out pickle salt for some reason. We were ready for days of learning and fun.
Over the last few years, we’ve experienced an incredible amount of growth. In Paris, we counted 32 colleagues, and quite a few more friendly faces who unfortunately couldn’t join us in Paris. As we welcomed many new friends to Fanfinity in 2025, some of us experienced the Fanfinity Strategy Days for the first time. So, we began Tuesday morning with a look back at where we came from, what we have achieved since, aligning on the steps ahead of us, and our overall vision for the future - all inclusive super secret plans!
Throughout the next few days, we learned from each other in multiple workshops, one of which we brought in a strategic partner for, Mossels from Brossels. Mossels from Brossels playfully facilitated a learning environment to discuss how we can connect as a growing international, partially remote-working, team and how we communicate more effectively across teams, from our expert teams to management. Throughout the session, we listened to each other, had lively constructive discussions specifying pain points, and determined opportunities for growth.
Overall, we felt this was an incredibly valuable session that helped us to better understand each other and one that brought us even closer.
After days of learning, all that was left was wrapping it all up with new team photos - and as you say: “when in Paris, visit Disneyland”. So on Thursday before heading home, we did just that: a class trip to Disneyland! Fanfinity was let loose on Disneyland to enjoy unlimited rides and a final princess lunch to mark an end to our wonderful 2026 Strategy Days!
We had a great time seeing each other again and are energised and excited for the upcoming busy summer period. Have a look at our upcoming events!
