The Inceptionists


That's us: 12 bad boys and girls; a mix of start-up, consulting, and entrepreneurs who came together at the end of 2021. Driven by the feeling of not simply watching how our planet gets screwed. We can't save the world, but we can at least get off our butts and make a small impact for the better. That's why Inception exists.

Meet our
values

We are transparent

We don't just say it, we mean it: transparency is our foundation.
We are convinced that sustainable growth always starts with trust. So let’s get naked: We disclose all data and communicate honestly and straight out. Promise!

We empowertrough education

Education is power. That's a fact. That's why we empower kids and schools by teaching and sharing knowledge as well as technologies: To change lives as well as our planet's well-being.

We are driven by technology & data

Yes, we are nerds, and we deep dive into tech and data. This allows us to be particularly innovative and efficient. And through the won data, we can be absolutely transparent and show you in black and white without pampering: This is what we do and that’s your money’s impact.

We are fun

After all, it's about having fun. We love what we do, we have fun and maybe we are a little bit cheeky here and there. The point is: The world is fucked. We try our best, to help unfuck it. But if it doesn't work out: at least we had fun.

We takeownership

Even if we are a bit naughty on our way: We take ownership and full responsibility for our actions and all projects we kick-start. Integrity is our top priority when it comes to our commitments.

We start up

Let's get romantic for a moment because it's about our hearts. Inside, we all carry the start-up mindset. In other words: Everything we do, we do for building the best NGO possible. With innovative and technology-oriented solutions, cost efficiency and, of course, what we also want for our trees: rapid growth.

We are bold

We are not here to please, but to tease people. We don’t care about your ego and neither should you. Bold visions require the uncomfortable truth expressed in bold communication - deal with it!

We liveco-creation

We're pretty great as individuals, but we also know that great achievements are usually accomplished by many and rarely by one. So let's fire our egos and work with empathy and trust to achieve great things together.
