FuseIT, a leading enterprise software development company based in New Zealand, recently hosted a memorable Gratitude Gathering at the stunning Columbia Tower Club in Seattle, bringing together clients, prospects, and friends to celebrate connections and foster collaboration. The event, held on the breathtaking 76th floor with panoramic city views, created an inspiring backdrop for meaningful conversations and networking.

Bridging the Gap Between New Zealand and North America

The afternoon was especially significant as three of FuseIT’s key leaders—Matt Walters (CEO), Mads Moller (Board Chair), and Deleece Hall (Founder)—flew in from New Zealand to attend. Their presence underscored the company’s commitment to building solid relationships across continents as FuseIT broadens its reach into the North American market.

Deleece Hall shared a personal story about her instant connection with Matt Walters when they served on a university board together. Based on shared values and a human-centric approach, that connection led to her recruiting Matt as CEO at FuseIT. “People are the most important thing to me,” Deleece emphasized during her remarks, setting the tone for an afternoon focused on authentic engagement.

Deleece also highlighted her connection with Susan Schuler, VP of Sales & Marketing North America, reflecting on how their friendship evolved into a professional relationship at FuseIT. Her remarks were a testament to the importance of valuing relationships, both personally and professionally, in building FuseIT’s foundation.

Showcasing Send2CRM

The highlight of the gathering was a live demo of Send2CRM, led by Mya Sanger, Senior Business Development Representative. Mya captivated the audience with a walkthrough of the tool’s capabilities, showcasing how this platform empowers businesses to streamline customer data and boost engagement in Salesforce. The demo sparked a lively Q&A session, with attendees diving deep into how Send2CRM can transform their marketing and sales strategies. The room buzzed with energy as participants explored the possibilities of real-time integration.

A Time for Connections

Katy Woodworth, VP of People and Capabilities, took the lead in facilitating conversations throughout the event. Her thoughtful icebreakers—like discussing your dream career reboot or your next travel destination—encouraged attendees to share stories and form new connections.

This emphasis on personal interaction reflects FuseIT’s mission of empowering connections. Attendees left with new ideas, strengthened relationships, and the sense that they were part of a community that values people first.

A Taste of New Zealand

Adding a touch of Kiwi charm, the event featured a raffle with prizes sourced from New Zealand, adding a fun and interactive element to the afternoon. From artisanal goods to unique experiences, the giveaways reminded attendees of FuseIT’s roots and global perspective.

Looking Ahead

The Gratitude Gathering wasn’t just about celebration—it also served as a springboard for the future. The FuseIT team took advantage of their time in Seattle to hold strategic meetings, setting ambitious goals for 2025 and beyond.
