Wolfpack Digital November [19] Wrap-Up: Who Let the Wolves Out?
Awoo, Awoo, Awoo, Awoo! 🌕🐺
Wolves are not the kind of animals to fear the cold, to crawl in their den, and peacefully wait for sunnier days to come. This month we were on the move at various events we host and support here in Transylvania and overseas. Yet what really helps us stand the cold is our excitement for app development challenges and our colorful team atmosphere.
Going Wild at Web Summit 2019
We’ve migrated to another jungle for a couple of days but for good reasons: to bring the best of technology back home and to make the huge potential to be found in Cluj known to the global tech community. Yes, our lovely wolves made their way to the epicentre of innovation hosted in colourful Lisbon, Web Summit 2019!
76.000 attendees, 1206 top speakers, 2150 startups made this experience full of futuristic insights and technology-related ideas and tools we can’t wait to add to our mobile and web apps. Still, along with global leaders, we are aware of keeping in mind the core values of humanity above anything.
“We may have new technology, but we don’t have new values. Dignity, integrity, humanity, equality — that’s the same.” — Margrethe Vestager
Designer Article Curated on Medium 🎊
Many years of experience, research or, perhaps simply gut feeling inspired our wolf Cristian Virciu to predict the design trends and forecast the UX/UI Weather for 2020. ❄️🌤
No wonder Medium decided the readers must hear about the storytelling trends, AR/VR, and other surprises that will dominate the digital design industry the upcoming year. Congrats, Cristi, for being curated by Medium Staff. Together with other 21K readers, we took notes and we are ready to apply these neat insights in the near future.
Your freshly gained knowledge about UX/UI design trends goes hand in hand with all the spicy ideas in App Development Trends 2020 you can’t miss. It comes with a bonus, the research we did on actual user needs dominating the upcoming year, which you definitely need to adjust your business & product plans to.
Transilvania IT Cluster Board Membership
Biggest news yet: The Transilvania IT Cluster (formerly named ARIES), which brings together executives from over 60 local companies and entities employing more than 7000 people, have elected their brand new Board of Directors. We are proud to announce that our CEO, Georgina Lupu Florian, is one of them!
But shhhh, right now, only you and the other Wrap-Up readers know this. 🤭
The Most Popular Article of 2019 & Mayor’s Award
Our pack can’t get enough of awards!🏆
Do you remember that awesome article on “The challenges of entering the IT industry” we shared with you last month? In such a short time, it became the most popular article published in Today Software Magazine in 2019. This couldn’t pass by unnoticed. The author of the article, our talented project manager Paula, had the pleasure to be congratulated for it by none other than the Mayor of Cluj-Napoca, Emil Boc.
Congrats Paula! We are looking forward to reading more of your views.
100+ Women Entrepreneurs and One She-Wolf
Anyone: What is your superpower?
Gina: I am a She-wolf. 🐺
We are cheering again for our CEO’s media appearances. This time, Georgina Lupu Florian was featured in the list of 100+ Women Entrepreneurs of Romania for obvious reasons. Wonder what kind of motivation moved her to build and grow a top app development company here in the heart of Transylvania?
“When you have such a diverse background, starting your own business seems to be the obvious scenario.”
Being by the Trendsetters’ Side at Codiax
Excellent and flawless mobile and web apps come with hard work, but not only. The secret sauce to this is a mix of the latest trends and cutting-edge development technologies we apply to our work. So it came naturally to cheer for the Codiax conference as their Supporting Partner. Together we help spread the words of global tech trendsetters.
See our awesome app developers, Dan, Robi, and Sasha, going wild at the conference while immersing in tech knowledge to bring back to the team at the wolf den.
Sharing is Caring
For the sake of a prosperous ecosystem, we share our ways to leadership. Our CEO, Georgina Lupu Florian, spoke about her views and experience of leading multiple teams from multiple roles along the way. Gina shared her passion for transformational leadership at the 2nd edition of “Leadership Stories”, in front of an extensive audience.
Supporting Fresh Innovators at Polihack 🚀
Sparkling enthusiasm and the hunger for practice is what describes best the students from the technical university that participated at Polihak, a hackathon organized by a local student NGO. Adrian Florian, our CTO, was by their side as a dedicated mentor, helping them direct their energy towards realistic solutions. We are glad to help and witness the growth of future innovators and progress makers.
🥭 Mango Moments 🥭
You will keep hearing from us about Mango Moments. These mini in-house conferences on Friday nights are like a breath of fresh air. It is always a pleasure to learning something new from each other like that new cool tool Cristi and Miro told us about this month. They definitely deserve a mango.
International Men’s Day at Wolfpack Digital 🎩
This is a man’s world … not really. But there was the International Men’s Day we couldn’t [almost] miss. The ladies at Wolfpack Digital put all their love and respect into a small surprise. Although some muffins might not seem so surprising, they made the moment sweeter by celebrating it a day later (let’s say it took girls a while to bake them).
We thank all our gentlemen for their patience, care, and respect. There is no code or box they couldn’t handle for our she-wolves.
🧣☃️Winter is coming! But there is no need to brace yourselves. We will keep you warm with tons of energy, good vibes, and hot tech news all packed in a neat December Wrap-Up.
Take it as a Christmas present. 🎁
