Corporate Social Responsibility at Iglu
How we make an impact
We Work Remotely & Hire Globally
Remote working allows us to hire globally. We have talents from over 40 nationalities working with us. We do our best to match the best talent for the job and ensure everyone working for the company is respected for their commitment and their work.

We Live & Work Local
We operate on two continents and five countries. However, most of our work can be done from any country or location. Working remotely allows us to live locally, which means we can benefit local economies wherever we’re based and provide opportunities to local talent worldwide.
We Minimise Our Footprint
Our footprint is small, and we aim to make it even smaller. Our offices are energy-efficient. We collect e-waste to ensure harmful components—and valuable materials—stay out of landfills. In specific locations, we keep our e-waste deposit bins open to our local communities, providing an accessible service to our neighbours.

We Make an Effort to Give Back
We take on projects for the common good. Whether it’s by developing software for a children’s welfare foundation, donating reusable devices to impoverished schools, or something as small as catering an office party with help from a small local restaurant, we make an effort to give back.
Some of Our Projects
Baan Dek Foundation (BDF) is a Thai Foundation that provides marginalized communities with access to essential education, health and safety services.
They focus on children growing up on construction site camps and in slums, who are vulnerable to neglect, abuse and exploitation, and whose basic needs often go unmet.
In 2017 BDF’s Superheroes Academy was selected by MIT Solve and the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs, to be digitized. The DSHA teaches fundamental life skills to vulnerable children in the form of superpowers through a web based and mobile application.
Iglu has partnered with BDF to provide software consultancy services with the aim to improve the overall app experience, add additional life skills and enable further reporting.
Since early 2016, Iglu has collected used computers from locals in Chiang Mai and has refurbished and donated computers to the children of Warm Heart Foundation, among other worthy organizations in the region.
Furthermore, Iglu looks to clean up Chiang Mai’s growing e-waste problem by accepting donations of old computers, tablets and mobile phones to be refurbished or safely recycled to better the region’s ecological footprint.
Locals can contact us to make an appointment so they can come and drop off eligible items, and we take it from there!
Iglu provides this service as part of its Corporate Social Responsibility efforts.
