# How we work
We have a simple philosophy - we live, breathe, and lead by 4 key values:
- Courage - We undertake stark missions and bold strategic moves that most find crazy and we fight courageously to make them happen.

- Polymath - Vauban is an end-to-end product, embedding engineering, legal, finance and design. But it's perfectly integrated. This is because we have no divisions: everyone has an interest in what the other is doing. If you often find yourself searching about various different stuff online to constantly learn new things, you are at home at Vauban.
