Open Your Projects Day!

Open Your Projects Day! 

In large and global companies, to an individual it looks as if everyone is working on something that’s unrelated to you, yet they’re all doing something. There’s loads of projects and clients, all in different phases, and with teams that vary in both sizes and skills! 

Well, we noticed that one of the questions that seemed to be flying around the office was “Well, what are you on right now?” and so, we decided to bring all of our projects and teams together and let them pick the most creative way they want (no limits) to show what it is that they’re working now, who’s involved, what’s the dynamics – and just present the project to all IT Labbers! 

In our Skopje Office Arena, as well as online, we had the “Open Your Project days, where we had the chance to hear one from another what are they actually working on right now. 

Some went with video, some with presentations, while others focused on explaining the work they do in a story-drive narrative – all in all, the “Open Your Projects Day” has helped everyone one in the company not just have a clearer idea of what’s at work on all levels, but also learn more about their teammates and know who they can contact when in need for specific issues! 

So, what are you working on right now? 


Work Hard, Play with Hardware

Work Hard, Play with Hardware 

As a tech company working on delivering software solutions to our clients, we simply love code – we write it, line by line, we tweak it, change itit’s something we’re good at. But as we all know, there is another component to technology – hardware – so we dive into that as well, honing our skills in handling it and working on assembling cool pieces. 

On March 21st, we had an internal Electronics Workshop, organized and orchestrated by Blagoj Kjupev, CIO, at which team members had the opportunity to learn more about hardware, and get invaluable hands-on experience in working with it. 

A group of IT Labbers had the chance to assemble a watch, a door-lock keypad, an electronic name tag (that we then connected to an app), a bluetooth speaker, and other pieces – working closely as they dived into schematics, tools, and snacks. 

Why hardware? Well, understanding and appreciating hardware brings a lot of benefits for software engineers, helping them acquire a better understanding of what it is that they’re working on, how it all “plays out” once everything has been finished, and of course – it’s really fun. 

Pics from the workshop say it all 🙂

One of the highlights of these events was following all the emerging technologies in the world of FPGA and HDL, providing valuable information on where this technology will go in the coming years, and how IT Labs can adjust to align with the movement in this domain. 

The Embedded World Exhibition&Conference brings the entire embedded community together once a year in Nuremberg and provides a unique overview of the state-of-the-art in this versatile industry.
