## When our passion overlaps
When we started a data center in the valleys of Switzerland only using energy from the on-site hydropowerplant and the old factory halls from the bygone weaving industry, and when we built everything from a scratch with recycled hardware, we were all in for creating a data center as sustainable as possible. However it was not 100% clear for us what kind of customers our services would be offered to: as you might have noticed we are a team of people who really like what we do and are not always into talking about what we do (although we should and need to) because we are much more into doing things and pushing things forward. This, our charm and shortcomings at the same time, has brought us actually the best kind of customers for us. The kind who shares our visions of sustainable technology and understands the value of what we do.
So such was the case for team ungleich and team South Pole. For us, it is thrilling that the those whom we provide our services for or get services from has the same mission. Enabling those who has the same visions for the future as we do - that's what this is all about.

More and more we are realising that how we started and continued our journey has actually brought us the best kind of customers. The kind who shares our visions of sustainable technology and understands the value of what we do.
