A proper night out with Metataxis

AssociateNightbanner

It’s been a long time since we have had the opportunity to meet up with our associates, partners or clients face to face. So we were absolutely delighted to see so many at our Associate Night at the Edinboro Castle last week. There were many familiar faces there, some who we haven’t seen in over a year. And then there were those who we have only ever spoken via screens who we were excited to meet in person.

For some of us it was our first proper night out since early 2020. After over a year of restrictions we’ve learned to treasure what was previously something we took for granted; meeting colleagues at the pub for a good catch up. While we’ve all managed to continue to work remotely surprisingly well, nothing replaces the immediacy of a hug, a smile, or just enjoying being in the same space.

We hope those who attended our Associates Night enjoyed themselves as much as we at Metataxis did. And we hope that we get to see our friends and associates again very soon.

Metataxis meet in person

For the past year or so, just as for many others, most of our meetings at Metataxis have been conducted online. But last month after a very long time we were able to meet face to face at our monthly Company Meeting.

It was a packed agenda for us, as we have many exciting developments over the next few months at Metataxis, but our chair Meg Shallcrass ran a tight ship and kept the meeting running smoothly. After months on Teams calls, it was a real treat for us to be able to conduct business face to face, and to get in some social time afterwards as well.

At Metataxis we have a tradition of catching up over dinner after our Company Meetings, and this was something we were very pleased to start up again. We watch and hope that things continue to improve so we can move away from working with screens and back to working with people, which is what counts most after all. 

Metataxis in the Park

Metataxis had its second Summer party, but alas not in Regent’s Park as planned like last year. The rain forced us (!) to the pub. So unfortunately we had to spend the entire afternoon eating good food, and drinking in the Edinboro Castle. Maybe we will get sunshine next year!
