Just last month, the DAMAGE iD team had the privilege of spending time in Spain for a very special reason: celebrating the wedding of our President Paula Vercollone’s son.
It was a beautiful celebration surrounded by family, friends, incredible architecture, and a culture that truly embraces community. Walking through Spain, it was impossible not to notice how deeply sports, especially football, are woven into everyday life.
Now, only weeks later, Spain is once again in the global spotlight after winning the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Watching the celebration unfold brought back wonderful memories of our recent visit.
While DAMAGE iD builds technology for vehicle inspections, one of the things we appreciate most about our business is the opportunity to connect with people around the world. Whether we’re attending industry events, visiting customers, or celebrating important family milestones, we’re constantly reminded that great businesses are built on relationships.
A Country That Lives and Breathes Football
Football is more than a sport in Spain.
It is part of the country’s identity.
From neighborhood cafés to city squares, football creates conversations, friendships, traditions, and unforgettable moments.
The excitement surrounding Spain’s World Cup victory has once again shown how sports can unite millions of people across generations.
For those of us fortunate enough to visit Spain recently, seeing that passion firsthand made this championship even more meaningful.
Business Has No Borders
The rental, transportation, logistics, and fleet industries have become increasingly global.
Companies everywhere face many of the same challenges:
- Protecting valuable assets
- Improving operational efficiency
- Creating better customer experiences
- Building trust through transparency
- Using technology to simplify everyday work
These conversations happen whether you’re in North America, Europe, or anywhere else in the world.
During our time in Spain, we were reminded that innovation doesn’t happen in one country alone. The best ideas often come from sharing experiences, learning from others, and staying connected across industries.
Celebrating Family Along the Way
While our trip included beautiful scenery and unforgettable experiences, the highlight was celebrating an important milestone for Paula’s family.
Seeing family and friends come together from different places reminded us that relationships are at the center of everything we do.
That same philosophy guides DAMAGE iD.
Technology is important.
Artificial intelligence is important.
Digital inspections are important.
But at the end of the day, our business is about helping people solve real problems and creating processes they can trust.
Looking Ahead
With the 2026 FIFA World Cup bringing excitement to fans around the globe, it’s exciting to see countries celebrate achievements that inspire millions.
Congratulations to Spain on an incredible victory.
And thank you for the memories our team made during a visit we’ll never forget.
From all of us at DAMAGE iD, we wish everyone continued success both on and off the field.
