Christmas Sweaters and Hot Punch

The end of the year is busy, focused, and often intense. At MeKo, we make room for a bit of festive cheer in between.

One small tradition that captures this is our annual holiday get-together, with hot punch, German gingerbread (Lebkuchen), and since last year, a festive outfit day inspired by the classic Ugly Christmas Sweater Day. With a MeKo twist, of course. Less about “ugly,” more about joyful, colorful, sometimes quirky holiday wear that adds a bit of lightness to the day.

The highlights are often the simple things: a festive buffet, spontaneous photo booth moments, and conversations with colleagues you do not usually meet in your everyday routines. We most enjoy the tangible buzz across departments that you can feel throughout the day.

These small moments strengthen relationships, boost morale, and remind us that collaboration is built not only on precision and performance, but also on human connection. A fitting way to head into the final stretch of the year together.

Sweaters or treats — if you had to choose one small thing to lift the mood at work, which would it be?
