A short photo note from the company New Year Update 2024 — less of a dump, more of a day I wanted to keep.
We had the quarterly update at New World Saigon Hotel. Second time there that year. Looking back on progress, new initiatives, and what was coming next felt genuinely energizing.

New World Saigon Hotel, District 1, HCM City
It is a luxury hotel in District 1 — I only ended up there twice because of work, which still feels a bit surreal.

The session ran about two hours, so there was a tea break. One of the snacks is in the photos below.

How do I look?!
After the update came the after-party.
Second stop: a big beer garden in District 3.

Food was basic and a bit slow. Service could have been better — but the company of teammates still made the evening.
