What was WWG celebrating in 2020?
Twenty years of software development, since 2000, and it celebrated them by revolutionising itself: we married the agile mentality, we were promoters of lean thinking, we embraced change in all its forms and we never stopped, we wrote at the time. For the anniversary we decided to make the celebrations more special by showing a side of us that was perhaps still partially hidden.
Three concrete changes: the team had expanded to professionals from different parts of the world, bringing new knowledge and international experience; internal work processes had been overhauled to make them more agile and streamlined; and the website had been redesigned from scratch, with a new layout and many pages dedicated to services, to inform clients and people looking for a unique working environment. The announcement of the new website came a few days earlier. Datamanager, the online editorial staff of Soiel International's Office Automation and the you4Italy group covered the anniversary; the press page collects the links.

Today WWG works with teams across Italy, Poland and Ukraine and has written into its statute, as a benefit corporation, the common-benefit purposes that in 2020 were a choice.
