At Eureka Labs, we firmly believe that our success lies in our people and the meaningful relationships we build along the way. That’s why every year, we bring the team together at our headquarters in Córdoba, Argentina, for an event we like to call Eureka Week: a few action-packed days where our people-first culture is front and center. You may think of it as an annual corporate retreat, but this event is not just about brainstorming and meetings. It’s an opportunity to truly connect, fuel our shared mission to deliver exceptional results for our growth partners, and have some fun while doing it!

Why Face-to-Face Still Matters in a Remote-First World

We consider ourselves a team of believers and builders: we have the mindset and the skills to turn bold ideas into real action. We dream big, and we build even bigger!

One of the things we believe in is long-distance relationships, whether it’s in love stories or work collaborations. Embracing a remote-first approach, we enable our talent to focus only on what they do best, free from the pressure of mandatory daily office commutes. Whether they prefer a hybrid setup or they work exclusively from home, our teams have the freedom to choose the work environment they need to thrive each day. And the truth is, the multi-location model works like a charm: our remote teams across Argentina and beyond collaborate seamlessly to build top-tier solutions for our growth partners.

But—call us romantics—we think there’s a unique magic in spending a few days face-to-face each year to spark real connections, reinforce trust, and drive our quest for excellence.

In that sense, Eureka Week gives us the chance to take the digital bonds we create and strengthen them in real life. This is more than just shaking hands; it’s about creating a space where innovation thrives, and where teammates, no matter their role, feel seen, heard, and valued.

That’s why Eureka Week is so important. It gives us the chance to put away our screens and spend time connecting on a human level.

It’s not about stepping away from our remote model but complementing it with meaningful, in-person moments that make us stronger believers, bolder builders, and better growth partners.

Going the Extra Mile for Our People

Now, we know what you’re thinking: this must be a massive endeavor. Between bringing the entire team to Córdoba, planning all the activities, getting the logistics right, and making sure the company still runs smoothly—isn’t it a lot? Yes, it is. Couldn’t we just do it over a company-wide video call? Yes, we could, but we choose not to. Why? Because to us, every hour spent, every resource invested, and every mile traveled is worth it. And this is not our romantic side talking. We speak from experience when we say that holding this event pays off.

Eureka Week has been going strong for four years now (which, let’s be honest, is practically a lifetime in tech years!). Over that time, we’ve seen firsthand how these in-person gatherings lead to tangible, lasting rewards, and this year's remarkable 96% retention rate stands as proof. We’re proud to say that our strategies to retain top talent have fostered a healthy, engaged workforce that finds Eureka Labs a place where their skills and background are truly valued, and where they’re empowered to grow professionally and advance their careers.

And Eureka Week plays a crucial role in supporting and sustaining our high retention rate.

This event is all about reinforcing our team’s sense of belonging—whether they’ve been with us for years or are attending for the first time—and fostering a culture where we all feel like we’re contributing to a bigger mission and working towards the same goal.

The energy from Eureka Week carries over into our daily work, making us a stronger, more united team—and ultimately, that means being better prepared to face tomorrow’s challenges and craft ever-more powerful solutions for our growth partners.

Balancing Work and Fun: Eureka Week's Secret Sauce

We live and work by the motto “Think. Build. Enjoy”, and they’re not just empty words that sound good (although they do sound good, right?). Over the years, we’ve mastered the art of balancing joy with productivity. We’re a community with a bias toward action and getting things done, but we never turn down a reason to celebrate and appreciate all that we’ve accomplished. And that’s what the motto stands for.

We believe Eureka Week is a perfect example of how those 3 concepts work in practice. Here are some of the activities that were featured in this year's event:

• THINK | We engaged in brainstorming sessions, cross-company discussions, and strategic conversations to tackle current challenges and prepare us for the road ahead.

• BUILD | We also carried out MVP development sessions and team-building activities focused on collaboration and shared success.

• ENJOY | Our sunset closing event was a great opportunity to relax and keep getting to know one another, both on and off the dancefloor.

And we did all this without missing a beat when it came to our day-to-day goals and delivering for our growth partners during Eureka Week.

The Bottom Line: It’s All About Growth

Like we said, this was the fourth edition of Eureka Week, and it has become a tradition we’re incredibly proud of. The event is now part of our identity, a cornerstone of our people-first culture, evolving right alongside us. It’s where trust is built, ideas are born, and friendships are cultivated.

As we continue to expand and take on new challenges, Eureka Week is a reflection of who we are as a growth partner. By bringing our team together, we strengthen the foundations that allow us to deliver increasingly superior results for our growth partners. After all, strong relationships lead to strong solutions.

And we can’t wait to do it all over again next year!
