doubleSlash Net-Business GmbH, known for the development of customized software solutions and innovative IT services, shows that team strength is not only required at the desk, but also in sports. Whether for individual software projects or sporting challenges, the team is highly motivated and committed—as demonstrated by the annual cycling and running event, which was successfully continued in 2024.
After seven eventful months, the employees have covered an impressive 116,076 kilometers. The aim of the campaign is to promote sporting activity, strengthen team spirit and at the same time do something good—for their own health and for the community.
The 2024 challenge: 120,000 kilometers in sight
The doubleSlasher team remains ambitious this year: with an ambitious goal of 120,000 kilometers, the team is building on the success of 2023, when the 100,000 kilometer mark was surpassed. Although 3,923 kilometers were ultimately missing to reach this year's target in full, the entire team is delighted with the achievement and the new record. All the more incentive to set off even more determinedly next year.
Innovative kilometer tracking
The biggest innovation in 2024: the internally developed "slashChallenges" tool eliminates the need to record kilometers manually. This tool automates the recording of kilometers for all those who use tracking apps, while manual entry is still available as an alternative. The current mileage can be tracked daily via a live dashboard, which provides additional motivation. The development of the tool was driven forward and implemented by a group of junior staff.
Sporting events and team spirit
In addition to the total number of kilometers collected, the IT service provider once again organized several small events this year to provide employees with additional motivation. All permanent and junior employees were able to take part and contribute to the success of their teams.
The team with the highest average performance can look forward to a meal together sponsored by doubleSlash at the end—in recognition of their outstanding commitment and team spirit.
Kilometers for a good cause
In 2024, the sporting effort was also converted into a donation. For every kilometer, 2.5 cents will flow into the donation pot, raising a total of around 2,900 euros. This year, the donation chosen by the employees will go to Lebenshilfe Bodenseekreis. "It fills us with pride not only to promote our own health, but also to make a contribution to an important social institution in our region," says Jan Zimmermann, HR Manager for Corporate Health Management at doubleSlash.
With this year's campaign, doubleSlash is once again sending out a strong signal for sporting commitment, cohesion and social responsibility.
