On... Going Sockless - part #1
What do you get when you gather retail minds, sales assistants, buyers, consultants, creatives and brand builders at one long table under red lights?
Apparently a very good night.
To celebrate the launch of Darvvin Group, we brought together the full team from Lisbon and Porto on January 26th for an afternoon that turned into dinner, and dinner that quietly turned into a party. Not just office teams. Not just management. Everyone.
And that is how our first event of the year happened: People of Tomorrow.
The dress code said it all: Back to the Future. Interpret freely. Some leaned cinematic. Some went full silver. Some treated it as an excuse for sunglasses indoors. No complaints.
From the sales assistants who bring The Feeting Room and A LOT to life on the shop floor, to the team behind Coup D'État, to the strategists at Darvvin Strategic Consulting. Different roles. Different rhythms. One shared table.
The setting was One One Five Showroom. Concrete walls, metallic details, a long table stretching across the room, all washed in red. Minimal. Industrial. Slightly dramatic. Exactly right.
Dinner was curated by Snack Bar Club, who delivered a menu that felt, quite literally, out of this world.
Then Jo Lapeño took over and the volume went up.

People of Tomorrow marked the beginning of Darvvin Group, but it also did something simpler. It put everyone in the same room, at the same table, under the same light. No hierarchy, no slides, no formalities. Just the people who make it happen, staying a little longer than planned.
That felt right.
