Impact with purpose →When you take stakeholders into account, your digital product can create a positive impact on people, society and the environment.
Accessible for Everyone
Accessible digital products →A digital product is accessible when it’s usable by everyone, regardless of any disability they may have. That's good for your users and your business.
Privacy by Design
Privacy friendly products →Data is the blood of digital products. We should handle that data with care by being transparent, asking for consent and using non-intrusive tracking.
Energy Conscious
Energy conscious development →A digital product leaves a footprint in the real world. By using green infrastructure and optimising web pages you can minimise their emissions.
Open source
Discover Open Source possibilities →Open source software powers the web. By participating in the community you can contribute back, strengthen your brand and improve your digital products.
Responsible AI
Use of responsible AI →Using artificial intelligence in digital products has both high potentials and risks. By minding data, bias, accountability and oversight you can use AI for good.
De Voorhoede, for good
Our commitment to making a positive impact goes beyond the work we do for our clients. We invest in talent development and good working conditions for our team. Every year we donate at least 2% of our net profit to a good cause. We do this through pro bono work, financial donations, donations in kind and volunteer work for carefully selected organisations. In this way we actively contribute to our mission to make a positive change in the world.
