The 100 Club

Companies are built around projects and new challenges and this is exactly what symbolises this great event THE BRIDGE, which we have the pleasure, the honour and the pride to support. We were looking for a new way of promoting the band and THE BRIDGE is the ideal tool with its values, with which we totally identify: passion, a taste for adventure, sharing experiences.

This project, which we liked from the start, aims to bring together many players from all walks of life, in a co-constructive model, to reflect on themes for the future: the company of tomorrow. Within REALITES, we are open-minded and above all, we are very aware of the economic environment. We have to be quick and accountable to all partners, managers and collaborators.
