Beginning at our Zuora office in London and ending at the Paris office, 15 ZEOs undertook the challenge to bicycle 420km or 260 miles from London to Paris from August 31-September 2. This charity ride was in support of the UN Refugee Agency, an organization that is currently helping the more than 3 million refugees forced to flee due to the continued war in Ukraine.
When asked about participating in the ride, Dean Verbeek, Senior Solution Delivery Manager in London, says "It is incredible to work for a company that supports charities through ZEOs activities! It is unlikely that I would have embarked on such an epic adventure if it wasn't for the support from Zuora, and for this, I am extremely grateful and appreciative." The overall energy from the group was gratitude. To be able to connect with fellow ZEOs in such a unique way, to feel the backing and support from Zuora, and for the overall experience complete with beautiful scenery, a wonderful team, and doing good in the world.
