Working and meeting online have become a new reality for many, and the distance this has led to between family, friends, colleagues and customers is unpleasant. Although the technical possibilities are not bad at all, online get-togethers can never replace real-life inter-human contact.<\/p>\n<p>The enormous flexibility and positive attitude to make the most of the circumstances by both PIEK and its customers have reached new heights in the new reality. For over 55 years PIEK has greatly valued an excellent relation with customers, and the present situation shows how much this matters.<\/p>\n<p>With the motto \u2018it does not hurt to try\u2019 in mind PIEK has adjusted and enriched its service concept. In consultation with our customers we have developed online courses, and these will remain part of our array of courses in the future too.<\/p>\n<p>PIEK hopes that you will enjoy a nice and pleasant festive season in spite of the social distancing measures. If the latter prevent you from actually being together with your loved ones, we hope that can still find comfort in the online possibilities to see each other.<\/p>\n<p>For 2021 we wish you, your family and your employees good health first of all. We also wish you the best of luck in your work.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, we would like to thank you very much for the pleasant cooperation and look forward to continuing this in 2021, which will hopefully soon see the end of the Corona crisis.<\/p>\n<p>Wij willen u van harte bedanken voor de prettige samenwerking en verheugen ons erop deze te kunnen voortzetten in, een hopelijk coronavrij, 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Your PIEK Team<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a heavy year 2020 has been for all of  [&#8230;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":23892,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[34],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23895","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-piek-en"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
