HERE’S THE WHY.

MinQi’s mission: Recharge in minutes.

Establishing micro habits means motivation that sticks. Because it works.

MinQi was specifically designed as a micro activity hub to cultivate high performance and wellbeing as interlinked goals in modern workdays.

Derived from the fusion of the words "Minutes" and "Qi," MinQi offers highly effective micro sessions and nudges that equip your teams with enhanced power energy, focus, and resilience - based on a science-based method.

As teams navigate through digitized relationships, multitasking, information overload, and an avalanche of tasks, it's easy to feel overwhelmed.  MinQi's integrative approach supports teams to always be ready to tackle the most challenging tasks - at scale.

Transformation starts with ourselves.

What we stand for.

We believe in authentic teamwork built on openness, benevolence, and consideration for each other's perspectives.

We believe that taking moments to recharge during workdays is essential for maintaining productivity, just as breaks are taken in any school around the world.

We believe that embracing human talent in a digital world requires a new era of inspirational leadership that values and prioritizes employee wellbeing and development.

We believe that diversity is not only a strength but also a driving force behind innovation and creativity.

Our values.

Cultivating collective growth. Building an environment that encourages collaboration, openness, and mutual support.

Driving action with a bias for innovation: Advancing productive and creative workspaces for the 21st Century.

Rooted in empathy: We understand that true progress starts with understanding and valuing the needs of others.

Our contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

In 2015, the United Nations adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) aim to improve the living conditions of all people and protect the planet.

good health and well-being

One of the main topics of SDG3 is prevention, which is a core aspect
of health policy. A particularly important aspect here is also the responsibility that companies bear for the health and well-being of
their employees. This is where we would like to make our contribution with MinQi.

decent work and economic growth

SDG8 addresses the issue of decent work and economic growth. Particular emphasis is placed here on sustainable economic growth.
And that is precisely our mission with MinQi: By creating an attractive working environment in which people feel good in the long term, we also achieve better results. In this way, we increase economic growth - in a sustainable way.

Why MinQi

Dr. Delphine Colin and Dr. Sarah Mahr.

MinQi is a woman-led startup from Munich, Bavaria. The company was founded in 2019 with the mission to revolutionize the way we work: With short breaks - quickly & easily integrated into the digital workday.

Our vision is to put the health & well-being of people back into focus and to meet & sustainably strengthen the mental, physical and social needs during their stressful workday.

The rapid development of technology brings many new opportunities & also some challenges.

MinQi is born out of the realization that the digitalization of our workplaces and the increasing speed of technological progress may present some great chances for humanity, but might also put us, humans, in danger. While machines have been made to reduce the workload of humans, some progress like instant communication technologies created new tasks to attend to and progressively demanded our attention to be constantly triggered by new impulses and stimuli. While the speed of technological progress may be exponential, the speed of our specie’s evolution follows a completely different rhythm (our last update took place around 20.000 years ago). Therefore, we believe that reflecting on the skills that make us humans irreplaceable (creativity, empathy, flexibility, cross-functional reasoning…) and on how to protect those skills is of utmost necessity if we want to prosper in this new digital work environment.

MinQi is about using old human knowledge about how our brain and body work and integrating this knowledge into our digital workdays to protect our abilities, happiness, and motivation. Methods like meditation, breath work, or acupressure can be our best allies to help us thrive and not burn-out. More generally, acknowledging our need for social interaction, regenerating times or physical movement belongs to a broader reflection on the role of humans at work in a digitalized future.

We at MinQi want to be a major player in the dynamic of making workplaces empowering for us humans.
