About &why

We started &why believing that we could do things better by asking why, by caring a lot, by being courageous, by being fast. It's our philosophy to create the best possible products.

We believe in creating products that are impactful and timeless. We know that’s a challenge in today’s digital domain.

Compiled from our experiences across building a digital platform for KKL Luzern, scaling to millions of monthly visitors with FreeNow, compiling French-German history into bite-sized content, and driving early adoption of AI Agents with B-Lab, we are building our own tech platform as a baseline for all our projects.

What we value

• Taking ownership - proactive people are the most successful at &why. Prioritize hard and make sure you focus your energy on what's most valuable for our customers and the company, then take ownership of making it happen.
• Moving fast - today, across many projects, we deliver the most impact when we move fast and maintain a high bar for quality. It improves retention and accelerates word-of-mouth growth.
• Making big contributions - at &why we are constantly seeking new challenges, from building (serious) games to exploring new frontiers in digital storytelling. We are all about acting fast, innovating, and iterating.
