Happy birthday, LunarLab!! We launched a year ago in 2021 and it has been a wild ride. After an amazing year, it’s time share our progress with our friends, collaborators, and partners.
We love metrics as much as any small business. This year we have the opportunity to serve 16 clients with a 31% repeat client rate… we love getting to work with people across multiple projects!
Because we are heavily invested in the growth of our community and our industry, we take mentoring seriously. This year we spent over 150 hours mentoring startup founders and people early in their tech careers.
At LunarLab, we are passionate about diversity, equity, and inclusion for everyone. These are more than just words – they’re the guiding principles that are woven into the DNA of our company culture. From the very beginning, LunarLab’s core values were written to celebrate, support, and empower the diverse voices of our workplace and our community.
This year, we:
- Joined CEO Action for Diversity & Inclusion, the largest CEO-driven business commitment to advance diversity and inclusion within the workplace
- Mentored at Bronze Valley, a non-profit, early stage venture investment platform that supports high growth, innovation and technology-enabled companies created by diverse, underrepresented and underestimated founders
- Volunteered and donated to Innovate Birmingham, a nonprofit organization working to promote economic mobility and fill the tech talent gap in Central Alabama
While the majority of our clients are based in Birmingham, we had some opportunities to work with companies across the nation this year! We uncovered UX Design, Product Strategy, and Project Management needs in Chicago, IL; Tuscaloosa, AL; Charleston, SC; and Cullman, AL. We even had a Design project in the Czech Republic!
Remote work has made it easier than ever for our clients to get high quality work done no matter where they’re located.
We wouldn’t be here without our wonderful clients and partners. Every client brought unique challenges and we enjoyed the many opportunities we had for tech innovation. Whether we’re working with new startups at the idea stage, or established companies scaling their products… it’s always rewarding to help people hit their goals.
This year we worked on mobile apps and web apps in a number of industries: social media, fintech, eCommerce, healthcare, cyber security, HR & hiring, hospitality, biomedical, nonprofit, and many others. It has been great watching our clients achieve success in their fields!
LunarLab was founded because we are passionate about bringing great products to life, and empowering others to achieve their wildest dreams. This year we have watched several products come alive. Want a closer look? Check out our Portfolio!
