Xpand IT's role in society

We believe our commitment to excellence extends beyond business success to creating a positive societal impact.

For Xpand IT, social responsibility means generating meaningful value, fostering a more equitable future, and actively making a difference.

Our social responsibility journey

Xpand IT has always had social responsibility at its core. As the company grew and matured, so did its commitment to structured social responsibility initiatives. Supported by a volunteer group, this team independently plans and executes Xpand IT’s social impact strategy, ensuring alignment with our core values and business objectives.

Pledge 1%: more than just a commitment

Xpand IT was the first Portuguese company to join the global Pledge 1% movement, a milestone that highlights our longstanding commitment to social responsibility. By participating in this initiative – which encourages companies to donate 1% of their products, profits, equity, or employee time to social causes – we pledged to contribute 1% of our annual profit and beyond.
