Starting from the very core of our products and services, coding is the cell of everything we do. It is the key to effectiveness in every technology aspect, from sending an email to implementing critical and large-scale projects. #IntrasoftPeople are passionate and coding enthusiasts, two elements that are drivers for successful and innovative outcomes. Being part of the “coding team” means facing challenges, creative and problem-solving thinking but it also means success and evolution. Exploiting this year’s CodeWeek event, which takes place between 10-25 October, we praise the work of our people.
CodeWeek is an annual European event, an initiative that aims to reinforce the learning of coding and the significance of it, strengthen creativity, problem solving and collaboration through online activities and resources that address to literally everyone worldwide.
