Global Nomad’s double bottom line: profit and benefiting the local community

Located on the Tibetan Plateau in western China, we are a progressive company not only in bringing cost savings to your web development and outsourcing needs, but also with a vision of bringing new opportunities and raising the standard of living in this under-developed area where we’re based.

In an area where good, stable jobs are hard to come by, Global Nomad offers a refreshing alternative to the limited options.  One of the main ways we benefit the community is by hiring qualified locals and providing them with on-the-job training so that they can develop a career right here in the town of Zeku instead of having to move far away from their traditional homeland.  We also donate 5% of our income each quarter to development and education projects in our area.
