Metasite

🌱 Last week, twelve of us from Metasite joined forces with hold.earth for a tree planting event — and it was amazing!

In just one hour, we planted 300 birch and spruce seedlings. These young trees will grow into a natural forest on land where no forest had ever stood before — degraded land near the Kazimieravas Ornithological Reserve. Even better, this land will never be clear-cut, so the forest we helped start will thrive for generations. 🌲

We got our hands dirty, shared plenty of laughs, and left with a deep sense of purpose. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that this small act contributes not only to a greener planet, but also brings new life to the soil and supports local biodiversity.

A big thank you to everyone who joined — and to hold.earth for the chance to make a real impact! 💚

☺️ 18 years, countless projects, and a lot of memories! Laura recently marked an amazing milestone at Metasite, and we couldn’t resist asking her to share some reflections from her journey.

What was Metasite like when you first joined?

– The team I joined was responsible for developing websites for the banking sector. As a young specialist just starting my career, I was deeply impressed by the fact that such major solutions and systems were being developed by a team of just a few people. That was probably the first time I saw the strengths and potential of a truly professional, well-coordinated team that had full trust from management and offered real opportunities for professional growth. Even now, I’m especially inspired and fascinated by how much can be achieved through teamwork—how a group can move from complete uncertainty to delivering impressive results together.

Even back then, Metasite had a prevailing atmosphere of trust and coaching, which meant I had the support and opportunities to contribute to projects across almost all stages—analysis, design, quality assurance, content management, and more. It was a great environment for professional development.And it’s lovely that this atmosphere is still here today.

What’s one project or moment that really stuck with you?

– There have been so many of them, and all so different. What stuck with me most were the projects/systems that I had to take over once they were already built, rather than creating them from scratch. And it was always a great experience to realise that, even if at first the domain, business logic, and functionality all seemed complex and difficult to grasp, there was always this exciting journey of discovery and understanding that led to that “aha” moment—when everything suddenly made sense and became fully clear.

We’re proud to have colleagues like Laura who make Metasite what it is today. Congratulations again on 18 inspiring years! 🎉
