PRESENTING SPONSOR

  • Unic

    We humanise the digital.

    We are convinced that useful solutions for customers only emerge when technology and user needs fuse together. With this in mind, we rely on an open and appreciative dialogue between different perspectives. We put the the needs of the individual at the centre. That’s how we create an environment for innovations, which challenges, connects and inspires.

    We have the big picture in mind: We explore opportunities, we outline scenarios, we design and develop digital solutions, we enrich them with valuable content, we measure, we reflect, continuously evolve the solutions and we ensure scalable operation. Our organisational system holacracy emphasises the personal responsibility of each individual and distributed authority.

    We are travelling in the digital world since 1996. Our 230 experts share a passion for the value added by digital solutions. They are based in Berne, Karlsruhe, Munich, Zurich and in our development center in Wrocław.
