TOSSIT: building strong bonds through an unforgettable European tour

At TOSSIT, we believe that success doesn’t just come from creating a great game—it’s also about building strong connections within our team. After the excitement of SPIEL Essen 2024, we embarked on a unique journey across Europe with our international teams from the U.S., Japan, and Australia. This tour wasn’t just about expanding our visibility and promoting the game, but also about strengthening the ties that make TOSSIT such a powerful, united force.

Exploring Europe, together

Our adventure kicked off the day after SPIEL Essen. With our stand successfully packed up, we took the opportunity to explore some of Europe’s most iconic cities. First stop: Amsterdam. There, the team got a taste of Dutch culture, from canal tours to discovering the local culinary scene. This immersive experience gave everyone a chance to bond outside of work, building relationships in a relaxed, fun setting.

After a short visit to Prague, where we enjoyed the local food and sightseeing, we headed to Budapest for a longer stay. This vibrant city became the backdrop for some incredible team-building activities. We spent a day indulging in the famous thermal baths, followed by karting—a thrilling competition that brought out everyone’s competitive spirit. To everyone’s surprise, it was team France who took the top spot, beating out the U.S. team in the final race!

Balancing work and play

Of course, it wasn’t all fun and games. While in Budapest, we set aside time to focus on our ongoing projects. A full day was dedicated to catching up on emails, coordinating deliveries, and making sure everything was running smoothly back at headquarters. These working sessions were invaluable, as they allowed us to align our strategies for the end of the year, ensuring TOSSIT continues to grow and thrive.

Even during our downtime, we never stopped brainstorming ways to improve. Whether we were wandering through the streets of Rome or enjoying tapas in Barcelona, our conversations naturally flowed from casual banter to discussions on how to refine our marketing, improve packaging, and elevate the brand’s visibility.

Strengthening bonds, improving communication

The most rewarding part of this European tour was the opportunity to truly connect with each other. Language barriers that once slowed down our virtual meetings became less of an issue as we spent time face-to-face, learning to understand the nuances of different accents and communication styles. These personal interactions have made our team stronger and more effective in working together, especially now that we’ve experienced the challenges and joys of working as a global team in real time.

From strategizing around how to approach potential retailers in each country, to simply sharing a meal together, every moment helped solidify the team’s cohesion. We learned from one another, exchanged ideas, and created memories that will undoubtedly enhance our collaboration moving forward.

Growing together for a bigger purpose

This journey wasn’t just about promoting TOSSIT—it was about showing our teams how to bring the game to life in their own countries. Whether it was stepping into game stores, pitching to local buyers, or engaging with tourists in city squares, this hands-on experience gave everyone a deeper understanding of what it takes to make TOSSIT a global success. We’ve equipped our international teams with the knowledge and confidence they need to continue spreading the joy of TOSSIT far and wide.
