At Railway, everything we do is based on two simple, yet powerful ideas:
Ideology
-
01
The number one responsibility of any business is to serve people and society
-
02
Doing good is good business
We are devoted to prove these ideas, and to ultimately make the world a happier, more democratic and more sustainable place.
Focus areas
There is no shortage of problems to solve or opportunities to build good companies. But lasting impact can only be achieved through rigorous focus and commitment.
To guide us, both through exploration and execution, we have defined four focus areas that we will work within for the foreseeable future.
-
The way we consume our planet's resources is not sustainable. We are searching for opportunities to transform what is currently considered waste into valuable resources that reduces overall consumption.
-
There is unrealized potential in all of us. We strive to empower people with better tools to become more, achieve more and contribute more, both in their personal and professional lives.
-
Humans are social beings. However, most products are made to satisfy our egos. We see great potential for value creation in strengthening relations, simplifying interpersonal transactions and enabling new acts of kindness.
-
In many industries, the drivers of profit and consumer value are drifting apart. This creates exiting opportunities for new players to bridge the gap, because in our experience, if given a real choice, consumers will choose transparency.
We founded Railway on a promise to make great things. A decade later we are starting to figure out what that means
