About us
We power brands who support, find and showcase the people who make technology a force for good in the world
Technology can be a force for good in the world. But it’s a tool. And, like any tool, it’s down to the user to decide how to use it. In the right hands, it can feed the hungry, save lives and build a better future.
So, we find the right people. Ethical people. Honest people. Hard-working people. People who want to change things for good. People who will admit to their mistakes and are willing to learn. And we look for them in places others would overlook, because talented people can be anywhere. With the right people, we can solve society’s biggest problems, like protecting our planet. Right now, we’re searching for people who are interested in Deep Tech, IoT, Semiconductors, Automotive, and Entertainment, because we believe those technologies have the potential to make the biggest changes. As technology evolves, so will our focus.
Over the years, we’ve learnt that if your overall goal isn’t top-of-mind, it’s too easy to compromise. So, we’ve created five guiding values to make sure every decision is about finding the people – wherever they might be – who’ll make technology a force for good.
That’s why we’re called 5 Values
Our story
What we stand for
Inclusive
Fight your biases
The more diverse our teams, the more experiences and points of view we’ll hear. If we want to hear new ideas, we need to listen to everyone. And to do that, we need to fight against our biases.
Sustainable
Put the planet before profit
If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem. Sure, no single person can fix the planet by themselves. But we can make sure that every decision we make takes us one step closer.
Attentive
Listen before you talk
We have two ears and one mouth. So, we should listen twice as much as we speak. When we listen, we can find out how to make people happier in their roles, discover new ideas and learn how to improve. Listening and then reflecting is the only way to grow - as people and as a business.
Authentic
Follow through with ideas
It’s easy to say you’re going to do good things. It’s not so easy to actually do them. So we follow through. We walk the walk. And we never just pay lip service. That includes making sure we always follow these values.
Considerate
Put people first
People are at the heart of our business. We need to focus on their long-term health. Their life is not just a short-term goal. If someone needs a hand, we offer it. And when things go wrong, we don’t point fingers. We help the person through it.
The Proof & The Impact
As part of our commitment to our values, we’ve incorporated key initiatives to hold ourselves to account and make sure we breathe everything our business stands for…
