Let's celebrate!
It has been already five years that Marzee Labs was legally created. What a journey!
Marzee Labs was born as a freelancers collective back in 2012. Our co-founders, João Belchior, Nuno Veloso and Peter Vanhee were working together as freelancers and after getting a big project with one of our main clients they decided to create the company.
At the time, Nuno and Peter were living "la vida loca" in Barcelona and Marzee Labs was legally instituted in Spain. From Barcelona to the world, a lot has happened in those 5 years.
We increased the number of projects. We expanded frontiers working with new countries like the US and Japan. We hired a full-stack developer called Luís and when he decided to go for a new professional experience, we hired another Luís. João has found his copy - a web designer with mad frontend skills (our Pedro). Peter became a dad and moved to London, so we now have a virtual office there too. And after a lot of trials, we finally hired a girl, our business developer Ana.
We have learned so much during the past years and we have grown not just as a company but also as persons.
To celebrate our journey we decided to launch a series of monthly clippings with news from the team, articles we find useful and events our team will attend. We believe that inspiring each other is very important for us to evolve as a team and we want to share this with our partners, clients and friends.
