We support the Red Cross

We’re proud of our support and collaboration with the Red Cross. As individuals and as a team we contribute to making a difference for people when crisis strikes.

In 2023, our office recycling scheme helped provide clean drinking water, with 6,000 liters generated for every bag of bottles saved.

Reducing our carbon footprint

We recognize the rising urgency of environmental issues from climate change to food and water scarcity – as well as their connections to social and development priorities.

We are committed to move beyond traditional approaches and actively address environmental risks. Last year, we further reduced our CO2 output by 70.2%* and we are 80% lower than the average for office companies globally.

*Calculated by using DEFRA and other internationally recognized metrics.

Diversity is key

Diversity at eloomi is important for our success, as well as contributions to a more innovative work environment and support for our surrounding community.

Our ambitions are huge, aspiring to expand our current number of 35 nationalities and achieve complete gender equality and representation. 

Furthermore, we are in the process of redefining our diversity markers, whereby our focus extends beyond numerical metrics, creating an environment where every individual’s unique background, experiences, and perspectives are acknowledged and celebrated. Example of programs and initiatives to support this:

  • L&D programs, for individual developing
  • “The circle” initiative for more female in leadership
  • DEI initiatives, as Annual gathering in Copenhagen, for collaboration, innovation and individual involvement.
