Our take

ETHOS is a new social network where the content is only about topics you share with others. Like other apps, such as CloutHub or Move the Chain, ETHOS is a socially responsible alternative to platforms such as Facebook and Twitter and provides a safe and connected online space that encourages conversations that discuss a variety of social matters and solutions. ETHOS is specifically tailored to a younger audience, looking to respond directly to their needs; their message to the user is: “Social media, built by You.”

Founded in February 2020 by Alejandra de Brunner, the company identified that many people already do positive digital activism on their social channels, but the platforms just aren't built for it. ETHOS' goal is to facilitate these interactions on the wider scale amongst the Gen Z market.

ETHOS has already secured three equity funding rounds, worth £1.85M in total, most recently in March 2022. The company has received support from celebrities, activists, and non-profit organisations, through which it has been able to collaborate and gain feedback on the new platform.

  • As a platform designed to nurture conversations surrounding social causes, The Ethos Network is committed to celebrating diversity and inclusion amongst our team, as much as we do on the ETHOS app!
  • We are excited to not only be female founded, but despite having a small team, we're proud to say we're currently a majority female workforce, too!
  • Our team is comprised of mission-driven individuals, selected for their talent and potential; but we love the fact we represent a multitude of backgrounds, ages, orientations, religions and ethnicities in both the core and advisory teams.
