A well-coordinated team = joy of action
In one of the American studies, scientists asked volunteers to stand in front of a steep mountain and evaluate the difficulty of climbing to the top. People who were accompanied by a friend considered the mountain less steep than those who took part in the study alone. What is the conclusion?
The presence of friends changes the way we perceive reality. That’s why at SONTE we see obstacles as challenges – because our brand is made up of a group of good friends. We are different, but our individual talents come together as a good team. We motivate and inspire each other to take action and achieve our shared goal: spreading our REVOLUTION!
Our way
The story of SONTE began with an idea – constantly growing in someone’s mind, demanding to be realized. In 2014, that idea evolved into a brand – one that is now strong, ready for new challenges, and focused on growth.
Each stage of our history is a separate story – about perseverance, mutual support, overcoming obstacles, and courage in pursuing our goals. Yet, we have learned valuable lessons from each challenge we faced. Today, after nearly 10 years, we remain passionate and committed, and we still have much to accomplish. We aim to continue developing and improving our technology, inspiring good design, and using innovation to change the world.
