Case Study Sapphire Systems
Sapphire is our digital operating platform provider to global mid-market and mid-enterprise customers, with over 400 employees across UK, US, Mexico, Argentina, Lebanon, India and the Philippines.
Sapphire employees globally nominated and voted to support the Rotary Club of Metn Gate charity, encouraging widespread involvement and charitable enthusiasm across the company. They undertook several fundraising activities in 2022 including the three Yorkshire peaks challenge, the Kalsubai trek in India and the US services charity walk raising over £14k globally. These funds were used to provide a school in Lebanon with the installation of solar panels. This was a challenging initiative, particularly given the turbulent political and economic climate in Lebanon that created significant obstacles in safely executing this donation and gaining confidence that the contribution will have the intended benefit.
This is a fantastic achievement by the team.
Moreover, Marcus Vinicus Gantos from the automation team at Sapphire spent 12 weeks in Brazil running automation workshops for underprivileged students alongside Automation Anywhere, whose long-standing relationship with Sapphire has enabled many philanthropic endeavours. This will have a profound impact in spreading knowledge and understanding about this industry and potentially inspire these students to pursue careers in this growing sector. Marcus hopes to continue his efforts in Argentina in the future. In this way, Marcus has been a powerful example to the wider Sapphire team and inspired others to consider how they might follow similar pursuits. Simultaneously, his work has promoted Sapphire’s profile within the international landscape.
“We believe our catalyst technology can be part of the foundation for a more equitable society, creating a diverse and accessible future of work for all.”
