Why are we publishing this?
We commit to being what we call a win-win-win business - one that focuses more on people and the planet, than it does on profit.
We believe that all organisations should be held accountable for the way they treat people and the planet, and to be transparent, we're putting all our cards on the table.
We actively maintain this page to provide our clients with oversight of exactly who they are working with, what their money is spent on, and the impact it has on the planet by selecting us as their innovation, design, and creative partner.
Likewise, it's equally as important to us to share our entire business with our team. Taking a stance that everyone should be able to work for a company where they can fully understand the impact that they have on their co-workers and the climate.
Highlights for 2021
2021 was a big year for us, opening a new office in Sweden, growing the team a little and doubling down on our climate and societal focus by ending heritage client contracts that don’t fit the vision.
Below are a few highlights that we’re proud of, and hope to continue to do more of in 2022.
