Our values πŸ’ͺ🏼

We value flat hierarchies, full ownership and responsibility. Trust and open, honest communication are crucial to us, as it makes everything else easier. We work together and grow as a team.

Focus on Execution: We love and live off great ideas, but to create value we need to focus on execution.

Don’t Fear Failure: We know that failure is an innate part of learning and success, so we value these experiences and take them as opportunities to try again and get better.
