About us
Our story began in 2006 when our CEO Greg Iwacz launched the company from a small shared office space in Krakow, Poland. From early on, Greg had a straightforward, open and highly personable approach to running Black Label. He preferred to grow slowly and invest in people and their personal and professional development – he wanted Black Label to be an IT company that was built on community.
Black Label initially specialized in developing and supporting Highcharts, an interactive data visualization charting library created by the Norwegian company Highsoft. After several years we expanded our services to include developing Javascript-based apps and data visualization consulting. We quickly became the trusted tech partners of several other Nordic startups and scaleups as well as helping countless clients across the globe improve their businesses with dataviz.

01
Personal & Professional Developement
A community-first approach and commitment to building long-term partnerships based on trust soon became the Black Label way which is the cornerstone of our company culture to this day.
Each new team member is chosen carefully and brought up to speed at their own pace. We commit a lot of time and resources to learning and development to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to continuously improve their skills and fulfill their true potential.

Stability Through Community
Our commitment to building a strong community has helped keep our core team intact (92% retention rate over the past decade) and allowed us to grow upwards and outwards together.
Although the majority of us are software engineers by education, you can meet mechanics, architects, lawyers, musicians and every kind of sports enthusiast under the sun – the through line is a passion for both work and fun.

Well-balanced Proffesionalism
We are a tight-knit team that understands that achieving genuine “work-life balance” isn’t just about vacation time and remote work, but it’s about creating a fun and safe atmosphere inside and outside the office. Whether we’re on the clock or on the pitch, we push each other to be our very best.
And when a new person joins the team, they are not only given the tools and knowledge they need for the job, but they are immediately welcomed as part of our community which values working together as much as we do playing together.
OUR TEAM
From Discovery to Delivery
We’ll work with you to understand your product, help scope your project and make sure that we deliver the best dataviz solution under the sun before we even write a line of code.
