About Us

Partner Success is Our Success

Whether you are a current or potential supplier, customer or employee, we welcome you as partners and look forward to building a successful relationship rooted in trust.

I am inspired by an African proverb which says “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.” This idea teaches us to embrace partnership and work toward a shared vision.

Our global network and cultural fluency allows us to unite creators and innovators from around the world. In direct collaboration with technical professionals at both suppliers and customers, we bring the right information to the right place at the right time. We are proud to be a part of your value creation process.

With the strong belief that an enthusiastic employee best cares for partners and community, we actively promote well-being and work-life balance. Our employees work as one in a motivating and empowering environment that asks them to aspire to the core values of “independent thought, ambition and compassion”. This lays the foundation for lifelong development and commitment to progress.

Though a lot has been achieved in our over half a century of history, there is still much to be done. As markets evolve and challenges arise, our experience and integrity will guide us steadily toward a bright and prosperous future.

We look forward to continuing this journey together with you.
