At Synovia Digital, we investigate not only technologies but also the ways people work best together — because we are a team spread across the world. Our realities, time zones, seasons, and even our daily light look different. And while these insights reflect how we collaborate today, global teamwork constantly evolves as our people and world change.
But one thing stays true:
We’re stronger because we’re different — and we work together as one.
Five Years of Synovia — And Losing the Fear of Hiring Worldwide
When Synovia Digital began five years ago, we were a small and tightly knit group, figuring ourselves out, step by step. Hiring globally felt intimidating — different regulations, different cultures, different work rhythms, and the uncertainty of whether a fully distributed model could even work.
But slowly, we leaned into possibility.
We saw the potential.
We saw the talent.
We saw how the world opens up when you stop limiting yourself geographically.
Today, we proudly work with teammates across Ireland, Colombia, Spain, India, United States and beyond — each one adding new ideas, new energy, and new dimensions to our company.
What once felt risky is now one of our greatest strengths.
The Daily Reality of a Global Team
Working across continents means every call starts with a little surprise.
Someone in Ireland opens their camera wrapped in a sweater because it’s 5 PM, pitch black, raining sideways — while a teammate in Barranquilla joins with sunshine, morning brightness, and the warmth of a Colombian greeting.
It always sparks curiosity:
- “Is it really nighttime there already?”
- “Why are you wearing a scarf indoors?”
- “Turn off the brightness, please lol”
New joiners love this contrast, and our colleagues in Colombia always welcome them with sun, culture, and that unmistakable Latin flavor that brightens every meeting.
These differences don’t separate us — they bring us together.
Training Across 10+ Hours of Time Difference
Running a training session from Colombia to India is a logistical puzzle.
It’s 10 and a half hours of time difference.
One person is getting breakfast while another is ending their workday.
But we still make it work because:
- Flexibility Matters
- Empathy Matters
- Team Commitment Matters
And yes, the conversations often go like:
- “Sorry to keep you in the office!”
- “You probably woke up 20 minutes ago! You ok?”
- “Let’s record this for the team who’s literally asleep right now.”
Somehow, between planning, humor, and willingness, everything gets done.
Different Cultures Expand Our Horizons
A global team isn’t just a business structure — it’s a source of creativity and richness.
We learn from each other’s:
- Cultures And Traditions
- Languages
- Humor
- Work Styles
- Celebrations And Holidays
- Perspectives On Life And Work
This diversity makes our solutions stronger, our collaboration better, and our people prouder.
It’s inspiring to see people from different backgrounds join together and deliver incredible work as a unified team.

When the World Hurts, We Feel It Together
Being global means celebrating wins across continents —
but it also means feeling losses together.
In November 2025, Typhoon Kalmaegi/Tino devastated the Philippines. While much of the world saw it on the news, we saw something closer:
Members of the Synovia Digital family had relatives directly impacted.
This reminded us that our connection goes beyond deadlines and deliverables.
It is human first. Team second.
And leadership stands ready to support anyone, anywhere, whenever life hits unexpectedly.
When one of us is affected, none of us look away.
Why Our Global Way of Working Matters to Our Clients
Our distributed model doesn’t slow us down — it makes us better.
Clients benefit from:
- Continuous Coverage
- Fast Response Times
- Cross-Cultural Intelligence
- Stronger Communication
- Collaborative Decision-Making
We work across borders, but deliver like one tight, coordinated group — because we truly are one.
The Ultimate Test: The Yearly Synovia Meeting
And yet… the greatest challenge of all is still ahead:
The annual Synovia Team Meeting.
That magical moment when we try to get everyone aligned — same time, same call, same energy — just to:
- Laugh together
- Celebrate
- Share stories
- Enjoy a meal
- See each other’s faces
- And connect as humans
If we can pull that off, we can pull off anything.
And like every year, we will.
Final Thoughts
Working around the world is not always easy – but it is always worth it.
Different countries.
Different cultures.
Different hours.
Different realities.
One team.
One mission.
We Are Synovia, and this is who we are:
Global, united, human, and proudly collaborative.
