Happy Lunar New Year from the team at EdgeRed! 🐉
Today, we come together to celebrate a tradition rich in culture and history, which sees communities worldwide usher in a new year with hope and joy. Lunar New Year, known also as the Spring Festival, is a time for families to gather and celebrate the beginning of a new lunar cycle. It’s a period marked by vibrant decorations, delicious feasts, and the sharing of good wishes.
Did you know that more than half of our EdgeRed team joins in these celebrations with their loved ones? It’s a testament to the diversity and cultural richness within our ranks. To share the festivity, we have created an engaging video featuring some of our team members. They delve into their personal traditions and the various ways they honour this special day.
