Creativity, flavor and team spirit: VIVEbiotech hosts its second pintxo competition
In its second edition, VIVEbiotech’s pintxo contest once again brought colleagues together through creativity, gastronomy and team-building.
At VIVEbiotech, we’re not only experts in producing high-quality lentiviral vectors — we also know how to have fun and strengthen our team spirit. Last Friday, we held the second edition of our internal pintxo competition, a voluntary and anonymous event that once again delighted everyone who took part.
Employees teamed up in pairs to prepare their pintxos, keeping their identities hidden until the winners were revealed. There were two winning entries: one selected by popular vote, and the other by an internal jury composed of employees from various departments.

The event was a great success, filled with laughter, creativity, and truly delicious bites. And of course, being located in Donostia-San Sebastián, a city with one of the highest Michelin star densities per capita in the world — 11 stars within just 25 km — the culinary inspiration comes naturally.
Among all the photos from the day, we’ve chosen a few that best showcase the variety and quality of the pintxos. Real edible works of art!
Congratulations to the winners — and above all, to every participant who made this event such a success.
