The 17 United Nations Goals shape our partner selection

QvQ works with companies whose offers can contribute to a better future. The 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals are our internal benchmark for this. At the same time, we check whether there is a market and whether we can reach customers together.

Inquire about working together

When do we decide to work together?

We choose our partners deliberately. To do so, we ask ourselves three questions:

  • Which of the 17 Goals does the company contribute to?

    We look for ourselves at what the offer actually achieves. A company does not have to meet every goal. A traceable contribution to at least one goal is a requirement. We welcome contributions to several.

  • Is there a market for the offer?

    We examine which problem the offer solves and who pays for it. Equally important is whether these customers can be reached.

  • Can we work together successfully?

    We talk about goals, collaboration and the willingness to invest in building visibility and sales. Only then do we decide whether QvQ is the right partner.

No conflict with the 17 UN Goals

QvQ only works with companies whose business does not fundamentally conflict with any of the 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. This is a firm requirement of our partner selection.

Why QvQ selects this way

Good ideas often fail to take hold because too few people hear about them. QvQ wants to help selected companies become visible and win customers. That includes companies with a limited marketing budget, little sales expertise or no international contacts.

Our selection is not a certification by the United Nations. It is our own decision about where we see a concrete contribution and a shared business opportunity.
