Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Our mission is to provide advanced cloud solutions that are accessible and equitable for all, while actively promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI).

At the heart of our mission is a dedication to promoting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) in everything we do. We believe that data solutions have the potential to create real-world impact, and it is our responsibility to ensure that the benefits of our work are accessible to all. 

Part of this mission is to develop innovative data solutions that promote equity and inclusion, and to provide these solutions to underrepresented and marginalized communities. We recognize that many individuals and communities face unique challenges and barriers that prevent them from accessing and utilizing data.

We are committed to addressing these challenges through our work and making our solutions accessible to everyone. 

We believe that DEI is not a project to complete, a box to check, or point of arrival. It's a continual, ongoing work towards progress.

Our DEI Work in Progress:

Serving the Community:

We collaborate with local organizations and volunteers to provide resources, education, and support to underrepresented and marginalized communities. Our aim is to address unique challenges and barriers that prevent these communities from accessing and utilizing cloud solutions.

We listen to and learn from the communities we serve to ensure our efforts align with their needs and priorities.

Fostering Workplace Inclusion:

We strive to foster an inclusive and welcoming workplace where diverse perspectives and backgrounds are valued and respected. 

We recognize that diversity drives innovation and leads to better solutions. 

We believe that creating a culture of inclusion is essential to providing our clients with the most innovative and effective cloud solutions. 

Promoting Accessibility Standards:

We understand that technology has the power to transform lives and societies. We are committed to making our cloud solutions accessible to everyone, regardless of their background or circumstance. 

We actively work to provide resources, education, and support to ensure that our solutions are accessible to underrepresented and marginalized communities.  

To establish an inclusive knowledge network in a data company, it’s crucial to ensure that the information and resources are designed and presented in a way that is accessible and usable for individuals with diverse backgrounds and skill levels.
