Our quarterly Town Hall was great - bringing hybrid and remote teams together to play, reflect, and plan for the future.
It was a lovely Christmas meal with some wonderfully mad games and crazy moments.
PRELOADED was founded back in 2000 with the belief that play โ in all contexts and for all audiences โ has the potential to profoundly benefit society. Our mission is to create digital products and experiences that do just that. We call this Play with Purposeยฎ. Nice to meet you all ๐
