Happy Holidays!
We Will Be Back after a Short Break
356 exciting but also exhausting days lie already behind us, not for long and the year 2019 is history. 2020 is just around the corner.
Somehow even our current project plans seem to point out something to us 😉.
In order to recharge our batteries for the challenges of the coming year, we are taking a short break from 24 December 2019. In urgent cases you can reach us during this time by e-mail urgent@projectwizards.net.
From 2 January 2020, we will be back for you full of energy.
The whole ProjectWizards team wishes you a Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year and all the best for 2020.

But of course this is not only true for us here at ProjectWizards, but also for all companies and industries in general. Here are a few reasons why team building is so important:

Privacy Is More Important to Us Than Likes
You may like or hate Facebook, but for decades it has been connecting people and making it easy to exchange information across borders.
Unfortunately, this medium is also being used more and more by groups that deliberately disseminate disinformation, manipulation, steal and misuse user data. Facebook itself also handles its customers' data negligently. Despite promises to the contrary, Facebook has not managed to guarantee data security.
