At Golazo Energy, we believe that healthy employees are the driving force behind every successful organisation. That\u2019s why we partner with companies to turn workplace wellbeing into a tangible, accessible, and impactful reality. Not through one-off initiatives, but through structured programs that inspire people to move and to connect.<\/p>\n

Mediafin, publisher of De Tijd and L\u2019Echo, embraced this vision in 2025 with a remarkable wellbeing initiative.<\/strong> In collaboration with Golazo Energy, 15 employees took on the challenge of training for the 42 km AG Belgian Coast Walk<\/strong>. What began as a simple walking goal soon evolved into something greater: a shared journey of motivation, guidance, and inspiration<\/strong>. It became a powerful story of collaboration, resilience, and collective pride, proving that when people move together, they grow stronger together.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\t\t\t

High performance comes with constant pressure<\/h3>\n

Mediafin employs around 300 people and is headquartered in Brussels. In the world of financial journalism, tight deadlines, complex dossiers, and constant alertness are not advantages, they are requirements. But such relentless pressure inevitably carries risks: mental fatigue, physical strain, and a weakening sense of connection with both the work and colleagues.<\/p>\n

Fortunately, Mediafin looks beyond tomorrow\u2019s deadlines. With the wellbeing program \u2018Mediafin Moves\u2019, they set out to make movement and mental wellbeing both tangible and accessible. Not through empty promises, but through real, lived experiences.<\/strong><\/p>\n

From idea to impact<\/h3>\n

In a high-pressure work environment, wellbeing is often the first thing to fade into the background. Mediafin wanted to change that with an initiative designed to truly get people moving, both physically and mentally.<\/p>\n

This is how the ambassador program \u2018Mediafin Moves\u2019 came to life. By 2025, it had already reached its third edition: after the 20 km of Brussels in 2023 and the OpenLakes Triathlon in 2024, the focus shifted to a new challenge: the 42 km AG Belgian Coast Walk. A distance that initially felt out of reach for many, but with the right guidance and support, proved to be an achievable and rewarding goal.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\t

The program: accessible, yet meaningful<\/h3>\n

What set this program apart? It wasn\u2019t aimed at athletes or seasoned sport enthusiasts. Mediafin deliberately focused on colleagues who didn\u2019t consider themselves sporty, because they had the most to gain from a positive nudge forward.
