Each year, we do several social impact projects with our partners, including UN Women, Food Nation, +Impact, INDEX: Design to Improve Life, Mind Your Own Business, The Ocean Cleanup, and State of Green.
The Copenhagen office culture fosters individualism and uniqueness. Our staff comes from very different backgrounds, but together they have a common goal. We know that our people are the key to our success, and we know that lifting as a team is more important than individual performance.
