In October 2024, Mara Studio curated a four-day corporate retreat for a global tech company, bringing together 135 employees from 7 countries in the scenic landscapes of Lopota Lake Resort & Spa in Georgia. The experience was designed to blend strategic alignment with cultural immersion and deep team bonding — a true reset for people, minds, and goals. Held across multiple venues, the retreat combined conference sessions, teambuilding activities, and evening celebrations into a seamless, purpose-driven journey. Guests participated in hands-on masterclasses — from traditional baking to wine-making — gaining not only new skills, but shared memories that transcended departments and borders. From arrival to departure, Mara Studio provided full-cycle event delivery. We developed the event concept, designed the visual identity and branded merch, coordinated international logistics, sourced all local vendors, and managed every moment on the ground — including artist booking, technical direction, and teambuilding actvities. Our photo and video teams captured the energy of the event, delivering vibrant assets for internal and external use
