we are
HASE & IGEL

HI, LET’S GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER!

THE MINDS BEHIND
HASE & IGEL

We are the people who make up HASE & IGEL. We work in an agile way, (almost) without hierarchy, and everyone in the way they are most productive. This brings optimal results and fun. Resumes and grades don’t interest us – only the right spirit and real skills count.

Full of curiosity about the insights that lie in data, we burn for solutions with substance and wow effect. With a shamelessly nerdy joy for innovative technology.

“WHEN EVERYONE THINKS SOMETHING IS IMPOSSIBLE, IT SPURS US ON ALL THE MORE. AT LEAST WHEN IT MAKES SENSE: INTEGRITY, QUALITY AND INNOVATION COME BEFORE EBIT – EVEN THOUGH WE VALUE IT VERY MUCH.”
– JAN, FOUNDER AND MANAGING DIRECTOR
