Catalyze 2024 marked our first global sales and marketing meeting in Lisbon, a significant milestone for our rapidly growing, remote-first SaaS company. This event was crucial for us to network, strategize, learn from each other, and build stronger relationships within our team. The venue, as promised, was perfect for our presentations, workshops, team-building activities, and fun events. With 130 attendees, we faced numerous last-minute changes. Kristina from Next Retreat provided exceptional planning and advice, turning our ideas into reality and managing everything with remarkable organization and transparency. Her assistance, recommendations, and choices were fantastic, ensuring we had an outstanding time. Our team loved the experience! We're excited to work with Next Retreat again for Catalyze 2025!

“Exactly a month ago, our company, saas.group had its annual retreat and this year it was held in Barcelona, Spain at Campus La Mola. To be honest, this was by far the biggest event I had the privilege of organising and it would not have been as successful if not for the relentless support provided to me by our excellent Retreat provider, NextRetreat with of course a special shoutout to my retreat specialist partner Nadia Dzurovcinova . You and your team have shown the kind of professionalism that only experts like you can provide. It warms my heart to see that everything we have planned and prepared for (months! ) went exactly how we imagined it to be or perhaps even better! Everyone had fun, learned a lot, gained more connections and just simply bonded throughout the week. This is what working with us means, despite being a 100% remote company, we manage to connect once in a while and truly make each encounter a memorable experience.”

"NextRetreat played an integral role in orchestrating our annual kick-off event, ensuring it was a resounding success. As a fully remote company, our primary objective was to foster camaraderie among team members. Additionally, we aimed to strategize for the upcoming year and unveil pivotal changes. This year, we ventured to Gdansk, a location suggested by Kristina from NextRetreat, and it exceeded our expectations. The trip was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to the impeccable accommodations and top-notch meeting facilities arranged by NextRetreat. From an engaging food and drinks walking tour to an unforgettable Pierogi making Class, every aspect of our retreat was meticulously planned and flawlessly executed. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Kristina for her outstanding contributions. Without a doubt, we will enlist NextRetreat's services for our future events."

"Our global company meetup in Dubrovnik, Croatia was a fantastic experience, with excellent feedback from everyone who attended. As a fully remote company, events like these are extremely important to us, providing the opportunity for team building and sharing the company’s vision for the year ahead. The venue was spectacular and the precise coordination of each element, from the accommodation and workshops to the social events and catering, was smooth and seamless throughout. I cannot recommend Next Retreat highly enough. Their support, assistance and recommendations were invaluable, ensuring a highly successful event that exceeded our (already high) expectations!"

“A huge thank you to the NextRetreat team for making our company offsite one to remember. Our goals for the trip were simple; To reconnect with global colleagues, celebrate recent company achievements and to come together to strategically plan for the future. From our first conversation with our point of contact Zuzana, our goals were listened to and carefully managed from start to finish. Zuzana was incredibly attentive and was on hand at all times to support, whether it was pre, during or post-offsite. The venue and meeting space were great, and activities were fun and engaging. A huge thanks to NextRetreat for taking the stress out of the planning process and allowing everyone involved to have fun!”

"We decided to recruit a partner for offsite planning so that we could focus on internal coordination and delivering a great offsite experience to our team. Opting for NextRetreat's concierge service proved to be a wise decision as we were able to leverage their extensive industry knowledge and supplier relationships. Our retreat specialist, Nada, tackled every challenge with ease, good humor, and top notch communication. Our team had a blast at our offsite and we look forward to the next one!"
