Our story begins, as many stories do, with two people meeting in the right place at the right time.
Robbie Hearn and Vincent Boon first met in 2009 on the startup team at disruptive telecoms company giffgaff. Together, they wanted to know what would happen if a company were to place its customers at the heart of everything they do. Through pursuing that question, they developed a revolutionary, community-driven business model.
Robbie and Vincent founded Standing on Giants within Telefonica to take the transformative power of brand-owned online communities to their other brands around the world. Communities are launched for O2, Movistar, and Vivo among others.
Standing on Giants becomes an independent company through a management buy out. The company soon attracted new clients like Airbnb, Lenovo, and E.ON to the power of customer communities.
