BEST STORY WINS!

We believe in the power of storytelling. Because if people are touched by good stories, they pass them on, giving them currency. And since our roots are in journalism, we are particularly good at telling stories.

20 YEARS OF RAUFELD

That's 20 years of madness. 20 years of joy at work. 20 years of delivering excellence. 20 years of the best colleagues in the world. 20 years of transformation. 20 years of not taking things too seriously. 20 years and not a bit older.
