Mission We’re democratizing virtual reality. With HEGIAS VR, builders and buyers can enter a building, look at various materials, furnish it using the drag-and-drop functionality and buy and build based on a dream that they’ve seen and touched – even though it doesn’t even exist yet. Our values Fair We have fun with what we do. We have a good conscience about what we’ve done. This is because we consistently make fair and impartial decisions on the basis of the best knowledge and experience. We are fair with all stakeholders and the environment as a whole. We are sustainable because our business model allows us to be and it reduces the environmental footprint for all stakeholders. Authentic HEGIAS is authentic because we’re able to discuss any topic that is important to us openly and candidly. Our information policy is direct and transparent. We are impartial and honest with everyone. We treat everyone with respect, no matter where they’re from, the color of their skin, their gender, age or position. Swiss sensibilities and an open mind We have a structured way of thinking and carry out our work precisely and with a love of detail. Yet we remain flexible and allow for creative freedom. We’re a community, one that acts in a goal-oriented manner, but we’re always open to new ideas as well.
