Organisations That Shape Our Thinking

At Cyrius, we believe technology and creativity should do more than deliver immediate results – they should create meaningful, responsible and lasting impact. Our relationships with organisations such as the Centre for Humane Technology, Rotary International, the Royal Society of Arts and The Long Now Foundation reflect the principles that shape our work: people, community, creativity, ethical leadership, sustainability and long-term thinking.

These ideas influence how we approach digital strategy, AI, accessibility, sustainability and social impact, and are reflected in the solutions we create for our clients.

Centre for Humane Technology

The Centre for Humane Technology works to create digital systems that support human wellbeing, democracy and a healthy information environment. Cyrius and Stefan have sponsored the organisation and completed its Foundations in Humane Technology certificate. Its principles inform our approach to AI and technology, ensuring people remain at the centre of the systems we help create.

Rotary International

Cyrius and Stefan have a long-standing relationship with Rotary International, supporting creative, digital and communications projects including websites, video, events and campaigns. Stefan has been an active Rotarian for more than 20 years and strongly aligns with Rotary’s values of community, service, ethical leadership and positive social contribution.

The RSA is a global network of entrepreneurs, educators and innovators working to address social, economic and environmental challenges through creativity and collaboration. Stefan Sojka is an RSA Fellow and has participated in its webinars and workshops, with plans to bring its ideas into Australian forums and conversations.

The Long Now Foundation

The Long Now Foundation promotes long-term thinking and encourages us to consider the consequences of today’s decisions beyond the immediate future. Its philosophy challenges the “faster/cheaper” mindset in favour of “slower/better” thinking – an approach that aligns strongly with how we think about technology, business and sustainable impact at Cyrius.
