We do all this at pace because we know that our customers’ business success can’t wait.

ABOUT_US_V1
We are inclusive

We believe digital products – available to all – enrich our connections to each other and the world. That's why our teams are made of people from diverse backgrounds, and why your product will benefit from their wide range of talents, experience and opinions.



We are ambitious

Our teams are as ambitious for themselves as they are for your product. We believe in supporting the development and ambition of our people, so they can thrive and grow. That way we can ensure that we bring our collective energy, passion and drive to all that we do.



We are collaborative

We strive to be collaborative, to listen, to be considerate and to be kind. We expect this of each other in our working practice. We also know that by listening, collaboration and developing understandings of you, your business, and your customers, we are able to deliver better solutions that marry with your expectations, and theirs.

Diversity and inclusion

Diversity and inclusion is at the heart of what makes Candyspace thrive. Our vision is to create digital products loved by everyone, and we can only do that if those products are informed by a diverse range of ideas, perspectives, backgrounds and experiences.


We have company-wide commitments to diversity and inclusion, three central initiatives – Women in Technology, Social Inclusion and Diversity in Recruitment – and partnerships with two charities.
