We’re thrilled to share that on 17th September 2025, MEG was honoured with the Cultural Inclusion Award at the Diversity in Tech Awards 2025!
This award celebrates something that sits at the heart of who we are - DIVERSITY & INCLUSION. From the very beginning, diversity and inclusion weren’t just nice-to-haves at MEG. They were part of the blueprint.
Building a Global Team, Intentionally
We’re a small team doing something big. With just 65 people representing 31 nationalities and speaking over 20 languages, we’ve built a truly global company from our base in Ireland.
This didn’t happen by accident. We designed it this way because we believe great work happens when different perspectives meet, challenge each other, and build something better together.
Our people live and work across the world, from Palestine to Brazil, Sri Lanka to Poland, and beyond. No matter where someone logs in from, they’re an integral part of the team.
“The remote first culture at MEG has given me the flexibility to balance my career with my life as a mom of three kids, while also navigating the unique challenges of living and working in Palestine. It’s empowered me to grow professionally without giving up the things that matter most to me. At Meg, I found not just a workplace, but a place where I belong.”
We were lucky to have almost 20 of our team members attend the awards, with some proudly wearing traditional outfits that celebrated their culture. The energy in the room was electric, full of inspiring stories, friendly competition, and a shared commitment to making the tech world more inclusive.
We felt enormous pride when MEG was announced as the winner of our category and given the award by John McCall from LinkedIn. The moment that stayed with us most was when the judges shared why MEG was chosen as the winner, their comments were:
“MEG is a remote-first health tech company with 65 employees representing over 30 nationalities, delivering its Quality and Safety platform in nine languages to clients across 30 countries. The judges were impressed by the intentional design of its globally diverse team, including the integration of colleagues in conflict zones and active solidarity through initiatives like the Palestinian Red Crescent fundraiser. MEG’s consistent focus on inclusion — from leadership roles for women to cultural exchange during ‘MEG Week’ — shows how a small company can embed cultural diversity into its core identity.”
A Culture That Welcomes Every Voice
Diversity is powerful. But inclusion is what makes it meaningful.
At MEG, inclusion isn’t a program we run once a year. It’s in the way we work every single day. We collaborate across time zones, respect different lifestyles and cultures, and make sure everyone, no matter where they’re from, has a real voice in shaping our company.
We’re also proud of our gender representation. More than half of our team are women, and 40% hold leadership roles. That balance didn’t just happen; it’s the result of thoughtful hiring, transparent growth opportunities, and a culture where leadership looks different and more representative than the industry norm.
Our Favourite Time of Year: MEG Week
Every February, we bring our global team together in Ireland for something truly special: MEG Week — a week dedicated to connection, learning, and fun. We start in Dublin with hands-on workshops, thoughtful discussions, and plenty of time to collaborate face to face.
After that, we head to a different corner of Ireland each year. There, we cook dishes from our cultures, explore new places, and end our days with music and laughter. It’s a moment to pause, look around the room, and truly appreciate just how beautifully diverse our team is.
“Working with over 30 nationalities has broadened my experience and given me access to learn how people from different countries operate and behave, but also how we’re all pretty much just the same.
It’s great to experience different cultures and that’s something that we get through our MEG week meet ups, where somebody from another country is always cooking some delicious food.”
A Win for Every One of Us
Winning the Cultural Inclusion Award means a lot to us because it validates what we’ve been building, not just a company, but a community.
Diversity at MEG is the way we hire, the way we listen, the way we show up for each other. It’s woven into how we build our products and how we shape our future. Diversity is in our DNA.
A huge thank you to the Diversity in Tech Awards for recognising our team, to John McCall of LinkedIn for presenting the award, and most of all — to every single person at MEG. You make this place what it is.
Here’s to building a global team where everyone belongs. 🌍
