A teams is a dedicated environment where you collaborate with others, and to structure and organize your work in workspaces. You can create or be invited into multiple teams from a single Vev account.

By default, your first team is created for you as soon as you sign up to the platform. We will pull the name that you gave your account during the onboarding steps. Regardless, you can manage your team by changing its name, icon, members etc.
