Our Culture
Transforming products into services for a simpler, fairer and more sustainable future.
Talent. Technology. Data.
Together, these elements can create transformative product moments capable of improving lives and communities at scale.
We, at CEC are in a privileged position. We’re able to help impact billions of products around the world and so we strive to deliver meaningful, accountable and measurable change across three key areas.
-
01
Digital Inclusivity
We work to bridge the digital divide through the expertise and passions of our people.
We do this both by working alongside your teams to:
- provide the education and expertise needed to bridge gaps, and
- Provide the technology and tools you need to scale and bring the data and learnings to your campaign.
-
02
Accessibility
We create a diverse, equitable and inclusive working environment that represents and serves our global community.
This gives us the vision and know-how to co-create products, services and experiences that power transformative product moments, improving lives and communities.

Sustainability
Sustainability runs through the very heart of our business.
We’ve incorporated our Sustainability AI (Action-Intention) Index™ into Mi-View360™, giving brands a Connected Pack Sustainability Score. This can be used to configure action-orientated Connected Pack experiences to encourage consumer action around caring for our planet.
Our Corporate EntrepreneurLeadership Model™
At CEC, we celebrate collaboration, empowerment and bold thinking. Our Corporate Entrepreneur Leadership Model™ reflects the values, attitudes and behaviours held by all of our team. These are essential if we are to work successfully with our clients and deliver the impact required, while ensuring each team member fulfils their potential.
