Europe of freelancers

• Ce qui est étonnant, c’est que tous les membres de l’équipe Zorros travaillent à domicile. Il n’y a en effet pas de bureau commun. “Nous communiquons via Skype ou avec Google Hangout. Cinq des sept collaborateurs travaillent même en Espagne. En d’autres mots, je ne peux pas les surveiller constamment, mais cela n’est pas non plus nécessaire pour la simple raison que celui qui travaille chez lui, fait généralement encore davantage de son mieux (rire).”

• Passeport:

Année de fondation: 2009 Siège social: Zottegem (comptable) Effectifs: 7 indépendants, dont 5 Espagnols Investissement: juste de quoi pouvoir créer une s.a.r.l. Ne recherche pas d’investisseurs externes. www.zorros.be
