Reunion in Göttingen: Where It All Began – And We Open a New Chapter

The Blackbits on a guided tour of the city
Blackbits from Hamburg, Berlin, Kyiv and Göttingen came together at this year's company event. A day full of encounters, city tours and exchanges, but above all a moment to look ahead together.
 

The meeting began with a guided tour of Göttingen, which gave us the opportunity to discover and exchange ideas together. A particular highlight was our graffiti container, which focuses on people as a source of creativity and innovation - exactly what characterizes our work. Just how much this meeting means to us was demonstrated by the fact that a colleague from Kiev even came with his family. This solidarity makes Blackbit special.

Göttingen has been the starting point for Blackbit for over 35 years. This is where we took our first steps, where our headquarters are located, and from here we have developed into an international digital agency. Göttingen not only stands for our history, but also for the values that still characterize us today: Cohesion, innovation and sustainability.
 
This mindset has accompanied us from the very beginning. In 2020, we had it confirmed in black and white with the Economy for the Common Good certification - a clear sign that our path is more than just fine words. On this day, our managing directors made it clear: the next step is now imminent - the transfer of Blackbit to responsible ownership.
 
Our organizational model already shows that this step fits in with our DNA: digital commerce requires interdisciplinary teams and genuine collaboration. We see leadership as coaching - personal responsibility and participation have long been part of our everyday practice.
 
By taking the step towards responsible ownership, we are now anchoring this culture in law, clarifying what has always characterized us and making it permanently unchangeable:
  • Our focus is on customers, employees and our values - not on maximizing profits.
  • Blackbit remains independent: The company can neither be sold nor speculated on.
  • What we generate flows back into the company: for innovation, stability and personal growth.
The get-together at the founding location has shown: We look back with pride - and forward with even more determination. And we can look forward to what comes next.
