Who we are
Our Purpose
HARE.digital was founded to bring a new digital perspective to companies. The story of inventors and pioneers throughout history inspires us to help companies move forward with our pragmatic and future focused approach. We provide a coherent understanding of the digital world and a way to implement it.
Our Edge
Founded by our CEO, Chris O’Hare BSc MSc in 2015, HARE.digital rapidly grew 400% in its first year by going the extra mile for clients and establishing great relationships. Working closely with our clients to truly understand their ambitions meant we became partners in many projects.
We believe in transparency in our work and our own project management platform allows our clients to see what we’re working on and actively collaborate with us.
We are very proud of utilising cutting edge technology to ensure we give our clients the edge they need in a competitive world. This is nurtured by actively researching and learning the latest technology. We conduct regular paid ‘Development Days’ to encourage our team to step out their comfort zone in a friendly environment before then sharing this with the rest of the team.
Our Team
Without our extraordinary team we wouldn't be able to go beyond expectations. On a daily basis they create inspiring digital products and experiences that enable companies to truly maximise their potential through the exciting world of digital. Their unwavering belief in our values keeps us united, strong and striving towards our mission.
Our Values
Future Focused, Unity, Positivity, Transparency, Initiative and Empathy reminds us of what we stand for in this world.
Our Mission
To help and inspire companies to not only visualise and implement the future but to build their very own piece of history.
Our Motto
“We build the future” ensures we keep our sights on what the future will bring and prevent us from becoming complacent.
