Smartshore celebrates the Diwali Festival in India

The Diwali Festival has become a well-known event in Amstelveen, attracting a wide audience to the Handelsplein every year. Visitors enjoy performances, Indian food, and a lively market where small businesses and local vendors present their crafts and festive goods. Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, represents the victory of light over darkness and knowledge over ignorance. The festival brings this meaning to the Netherlands while simultaneously celebrating the rich Indian culture and the community that keeps it alive here.

For Smartshore, involvement in this festival is a given. As a Dutch software development company with its own branches in India, in Ludhiana and Panjim, we work daily in hybrid teams where Dutch and Indian colleagues collaborate on software development. This connection between two cultures is at the core of our company, and Diwali is the perfect moment to celebrate it. By being a sponsor of the Diwali Festival for many years, Smartshore not only supports a beautiful event but also contributes to the community that helps shape us as an organization.
