A Culture based on diversity and empowerment
Our culture at Blue Hat thrives on a set of different associations that encourage creativity and out-of-the-box thinking, while still utilizing frameworks and logic. That dual mentality comes hand in hand with our culture and our processes; it also happens to derive itself from our name “Blue Hat”, from Edward de Bono’s Six Thinking Hats.
