Wir sind berlin

KARO was born on 08 November 2018 in the city of Berlin. Naturally, everything about us screams Berlin (we understand that this comes with a lot of baggage).

People tell us that Berlin is too hipster, too arty, too crazy..

We tell them its our home.

The Name, the logo, etc.

We think we are poets. We think we are clever (in a cute way). We are also inherently cheesy.

KARO has many meanings, choose the one that resonates with you.

What's in a name?

KARO is the combination of the first two letters of the founders’ names. Go figure!

家老

In Ancient Japan, the Karō were top ranking samurai officials.

करो

In Hindi, KARO means the verb “to do”.

Peace out!

We strongly believe in equality. Therefore, the logo draws inspiration from the ancient Taijitu Yin-Yang symbol representing symbiotic duality.

Shine on, you crazy diamond!

In the German language, a meaning of KARO is the rhomboid or diamond shape.

IMPOSSIBLE is NOTHING!

The logo is an impossible rhombus that can only be created digitally. It serves as a constant reminder to us that in XR, anything is possible.

The PHILOSOPHY​

The only way that we will make a difference if we have each other. We know it.

Rather than being a company that uses terms such as diversity, innovation and harmony as buzzwords; we want to be a company whose core values are defined by these terms.

DIVERSITY

To create a beautiful solution, many ideas are necessary.

INNOVATION

Innovation helps good ideas become great solutions.

HARMONY

A harmonious environment leads to accelerated innovation.
