Who we are

Founded in 2015 by Robyn Scott and Lisa Witter, Apolitical is a team of 60+ employees with an office in London. 

Our mission is to build 21st century governments that work for people and the planet

Our moonshot is to accelerate the adoption of better skills and solutions in government, so that 1% of governments' $30 trillion annual budget is spent 50% more effectively, unlocking $150 billion each year for society.

Apolitical is the first global platform for government that helps public servants find the ideas, experts and partners they need to solve the hardest challenges facing our societies. The need to seek solutions across borders in government has never been greater. Yet public servants still often google or phone a friend to find policy ideas that affect millions of lives. Apolitical was created to change this.

How we work

Our mission demands the purposeful, collaborative work of a driven and diverse team. Guided by our leadership principles, Apolitical team members are mission-driven and ready to embrace complex challenges with innovative and critical thinking. In our organisation, we value ownership, impact, and a supportive and inclusive environment enriched by kind and constructive feedback.
