Sphero’s Commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI)

At Sphero, we recognize the importance of inclusion in all aspects of society, and for everyone to feel they have a seat at the table, particularly in the workplace.

In 2020, we updated our company values to add “Changemakers” and established an internal committee focused on improving Diversity, Equity and Inclusivity, also known as the “Changemakers.” The purpose of this committee is to identify and enact changes both for our employees, and, to the extent we can as a business, for society at large. We do the former by identifying new processes or programs so that our employees will feel more included at work so that we can retain a more diverse workforce. We also support hiring practices that, by nature, are more inclusive.

Beyond changes internally, we are actively looking for ways to improve our customers’ experiences with and exposure to our products regardless of their gender, abilities, socioeconomic status, or ethnic or racial backgrounds.

We are committed to working with vendors and distributors who embrace this vision as well.

This is a company effort at the individual and collective level to continue to learn, develop, and evolve. We are supported by our Board of Directors in our efforts to make positive change. Are we perfect? Not at all. But we are actively working on becoming better each and every day.
