MOVING ON UP!

So far, 2014 has been a busy year for 24i. Over the last couple of months our company has grown at lightning pace, welcoming new colleagues and clients every month. Right now we're working on some exciting projects which we'll be sharing with you soon. One of the things changing right now is our office location. Although we've had a great time in Alkmaar for the last couple of years, we will be moving to Amsterdam this month. Our new office will offer us the space to continue this growth and maybe even a pool table? We'll have to make some time to decorate the place, but this is how it looked with the previous tenants in.
