In a globalized world it is becoming increasingly important to keep one’s orientation and assume corporate responsibility. All of our actions are based on one central principle: Open Source solutions are vectors to bring companies, people and processes together across the world and break down barriers.

We believe in the benefits of agile methods. Agility ensures maximum flexibility, transparency and openness for all project stakeholders.
