Diversity & innovation
Inclusion and the art of being open-minded
All of Aquaporin’s team members play a crucial role in the realization of our vision. We firmly believe in promoting diversity at all levels of the organization to create a dynamic, creative, and innovative work environment. We aim to create an open culture without prejudice and discrimination, and we focus on ensuring equal career advancement opportunities for all employees.
We work cross-culturally with a strong understanding of the communities in which we operate. When hiring new team members, we focus on finding the right candidate for the job regardless of gender, nationality, age, sexuality, religious belief, and cultural background. The result is a diverse team with more than 20 different nationalities.
