Four decades of G&D \u2013 around 150 employees and their families gathered at this year\u2019s summer party to celebrate this special milestone together.<\/p>\n

Words of Gratitude<\/h2>\n

CEO Thorsten Lipp opened the event with a warm welcome, a brief look back at 40 years of G&D, and a heartfelt thank you to everyone who made it all possible. Mayor Steffen Mues then congratulated the company and highlighted G&D\u2019s importance to the region.<\/p>\n

The company\u2019s founders Udo Guntermann, Reiner Ruelmann and Martin Drunck also joined the celebration, showing their ongoing connection to the company they founded.<\/p>\n

40 Years of Innovation on Display<\/h2>\n

A company anniversary wouldn\u2019t be complete without a look at its history \u2013 and we brought ours to life in the reception area. Old and new KVM devices clearly illustrated how much growth and innovation has taken place over the past 40 years. For many guests, our \u201cG&D Museum\u201d was a true highlight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Entertainment was also part of the program: puzzle and skill games gave colleagues the chance to show off their team spirit while having lots of fun. For younger guests, a bouncy castle, face painting, and various game stations brought plenty of excitement and colorful faces. The evening ended with joyful dancing to great music.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Stronger Together for 40 Years<\/h2>\n

For us, the summer party was more than just an anniversary. It showed how much we\u2019ve grown over the past 40 years \u2013 not just in terms of technology, but especially as a team. Unity has been one of our core values from the very beginning. That\u2019s why it\u2019s still important to us today to spend time together not only during work hours but also beyond \u2013 and to celebrate special moments as a team.<\/p>\n
