Culture and Values

We believe in the power of autonomy nurtured in a culture with the following values. 

People first 

We work to make things better for everyone: both on a societal level and a personal level. We will thrive, as a team, as a company and as a society by combining smartness with thoughtfulness across everything we do.

Rigour & agility

We move fast and innovate in our thinking, yet combine this agility with utter rigour and robustness. We are dedicated to delivering rock-solid solutions.

Interdisciplinarity

An ugly word for a beautiful idea. Our interdisciplinary approach goes deeper than our science. We believe that the best ideas and the most interesting conversations often come from synthesising diverse expertise and experiences. 

Dignity & nurture

We fundamentally believe in the value of each individual and the worth of their contribution regardless of the outcome. We believe that we all thrive best in a nurturing environment, and everything in our power is committed to building this supportive culture. 

Go where there's a need

We have the potential to transform lives. We will not let ourselves be sidetracked in this calling. We will not fail those whose future we can save.
