Feeling so grateful and sentimental about this “little business” that has allowed me to create a life with the freedom and space to pursue my purpose and passions. And it was by means no easy journey to get here...

In less than a month, it will be seven years since I officially embarked on my entrepreneurial journey.

Although the journey began long before that, with months of research, preparation, and trying to understand how to incorporate a company and navigate all the requirements, licenses, and permits as a foreigner in Aruba.

Reflecting on everything it took to become the woman and entrepreneur I am today makes me incredibly sentimental. More than anything, I feel proud that I never gave up, despite the fear, uncertainty, and countless challenges, because this journey was by no means easy.

It took multiple burnouts for me to finally accept that I needed to change the way I was operating my business. That experience transformed not only how I work, but also how I define success.

Which is something I want to begin sharing more openly, in the hope that my journey can support others as they navigate their own entrepreneurial journeys and career paths.

Closing a Beautiful Chapter with Deep Gratitude ❤️

After 5.5 years of shared adventures, creative milestones, and meaningful growth, we officially close a beautiful chapter with one of our very first clients at Sage—Futura Innovation Lab.

I began working with Futura at the end of 2019, with one of my very first projects being the Futura Café and the Caya Grandi events. At the time, it felt like a dream come true—I had once hoped to be part of the Futura Lab while still at my previous job. And then, through my own company, that dream landed at my doorstep as a long-term partnership.

Futura was never just a client. They were a team, a community, and a place I felt truly supported—especially during the early days of my career, through the trials of the COVID-19 era, and throughout my own personal grieving journey.

This team made sure I never felt alone. Through the highs and lows, we grew together. And for that, I am endlessly grateful.

Thank you, Futura, for trusting me, believing in me, and giving me the opportunity to work on some of the most fulfilling and memorable projects of my life. This isn’t goodbye forever—because the friendships we’ve built will always remain.

With heartfelt gratitude,

Derin 🤍

Project Highlight ✨ Adidas Booth at the KLM Marathon Expo 👟🏃🏻‍♀️

We are thrilled to share our latest project for Adidas Aruba , where SAGE set up a vibrant and engaging booth for our client at the KLM Marathon Expo last weekend. This success was made possible through the professional support of our fantastic partners, Print Media Aruba and Swingmasterz Audio visual & event rentals. 🙏🏼

The booth proudly showcased their Supernova collection, drawing in marathon enthusiasts and Adidas fans alike. A standout feature was the Spin the Wheel giveaway, which added excitement and interaction, allowing visitors to win in-store discounts and free prizes.

This marks our second consecutive year organizing this activation for Adidas. In line with our commitment to sustainability and mindfulness in business, we repurposed all materials from the previous year. This not only minimized waste ♻️ but also demonstrated our dedication to eco-friendly practices. 🌎

The booth was a major attraction, bringing in numerous visitors and resulting in on-site purchases at the expo. We are grateful to Grupo David for their continuous trust and partnership, making these activations a resounding success.

Here's to more successful collaborations and innovative projects ahead!
