Sony Europe

In July, 20 people from our SSS, Consumer and AI teams took a break from the office to give back to our community in a meaningful way. They rolled up their sleeves and participated in a riverbank cleaning event, near the office in Schlieren, Switzerland dedicated to preserving the local wildlife and nature. 🏞 They collected all sorts of ugly waste and covered several kilometres raising money for our Sony Summer Challenge that will be donated to Save the Children. They ended the day by celebrating all together during the Sony Switzerland Summer Party. A huge thank you to everyone who participated. Together, we can make a positive impact on our environment and support a cleaner, greener future.🤗 #SonyEurope #SonyCares #Sustainability #SocialContribution

At Sony Europe, we encourage a friendly working culture and celebrate shared results all together. In late June, our Iberia Team enjoyed a fantastic summer get-together across three of our locations: Barcelona, Madrid, and Lisbon. This simultaneous celebration was the perfect opportunity to connect outside the office, enjoy a great traditional meal together, and acknowledge the team's incredible hard work as we head into the summer holiday season. 🌞   #SonyEurope #LifeAtSony #Wellbeing #SonySummerEvent

At Sony Europe, we're committed to preparing the leaders of tomorrow with the essential knowledge, confidence, and support to excel personally and lead strong teams.   To ensure we are identifying and developing the right talent, our HR Learning and Development team has launched a series of Leadership Development Programs tailored to different management levels. These programs aim to create a robust talent pipeline, enhancing leadership capabilities across our organisation with a focus on key areas such as innovation and DE&I.   For our latest module, our delegates collaborated with Google and our sister companies partnering in a two-day workshop entitled: Kando Together: How Sony and Google can change the world.   Thanks, Google for hosting us and congratulations to all our Leaders!!!   #SonyEurope #ProfessionalDevelopment #LeadershipDevelopment

On the occasion of the Pride Parade in Barcelona, this month, our Barcelona office celebrated diversity, inclusion, and love. We proudly joined the global community in honouring Pride Month, by decorating the office with a rainbow theme to create an inclusive environment for everyone. We believe that a diverse and inclusive workplace not only fosters innovation but also creates a supportive environment where everyone feels valued and respected. Celebrating Pride is just one way we demonstrate our commitment to these principles. Thank you to everyone who participated and to the Facility and HR teams to make this celebration meaningful. Let's continue to stand together in solidarity, embracing diversity in all its beautiful forms, not just this month, but every day. 🏳️🌈💼   #SonyEurope #PrideBarcelona #Sustainability #Diversity #SonyCares

We were honoured to host Petra Olschowski, the Minister for Science, Research, and the Arts of Baden-Württemberg, at our Sony Stuttgart Technology Center in late June.   The visit provided an excellent platform to present our pioneering research in sensing technologies and next-generation audio entertainment systems for the automotive industry. Our demonstrations sparked engaging discussions on future technologies, the role of AI in engineering, and broader societal impacts. Additionally, we had the chance to share insights into the unique aspects of both German and Japanese industries.   A heartfelt thank you to Petra Olschowski for her visit and keen interest in our work. We eagerly anticipate continued collaboration and contributing to the technological advancement of our region.   #SonyEurope #SensingTechnology #AutomotiveIndustry #AI #ResearchandDevelopment

We're excited to share the success of our recent Charity Teddy Bear Rescue event! 🧸 Our Sony Poland office came together, for the second consecutive year, in a heartwarming initiative to support children in need and bring smiles to their faces. We collected teddy bears in the office and donated them to Polski Czerwony Krzyż, Polish Red Cross, which will give our fluffy friends a new home and new little owners. This initiative promoted children's mental comfort and improvement in traumatic moments and created social awareness around the benefit of reusing toys and giving them a second life. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this heartwarming and meaningful campaign. Your kindness and generosity will make a significant difference in the lives of many children! #SonyEurope #TeddyBearRescue #SonyCares #Sustainability #SocialContribution
