Well-designed retreats can “stimulate creativity, build trust, and improve mood” (The Offsite Co). Shared meals, inspiring settings, and authentic hospitality turn every moment into an opportunity to deepen alignment and strengthen culture.
Retreats free teams from the noise of daily work. 34% of employees say their most creative ideas happen during a retreat (TravelPerk). In Italy, the landscapes, architecture, and slower pace amplify that creativity.
Italians have a gift for making people feel welcome. In-person encounters matter — 81% of professionals say traveling to meet face-to-face offers value beyond the meeting itself, and 93% believe it’s essential for bridging cultural differences (Harvard Business Review / TeamOut).
Why Italy Works for Teams
Having lived across Italy for nearly a decade, I’ve seen firsthand how its pace and culture change the way people show up. That’s why no place compares when it comes to hosting a retreat.
