As the largest majority-autistic company in the world, we have been delivering exceptional IT solutions harnessing the distinctive skills of our neurodivergent talent since 2009. We are proud to be living proof that neurodiversity works at work.
Our comprehensive neuroinclusion services and unique lived experience are enabling forward-thinking organisations to attract, retain and reap the benefits of neurodivergent talent: driving the people sustainability agenda, providing a competitive advantage, and creating an enviable inclusive culture that delivers both economic and social value.
Our autistic technology consultants have extraordinary cognitive abilities that provide exceptional value in the tech space. We succeed at this through our experience in closely matching each consultant to your job requirements, office culture, and the neurodiversity goals of your organization. Innovation, creative intelligence, precision, sustained concentration and an ability to intuitively spot errors provide a uniquely autistic perspective on client tech projects.
Creating a neuroinclusive workplace is not just the right thing to do: it’s a smart business decision.
auticon’s story is one of innovation, inclusion and incredible impact. We are a global consultancy firm and social enterprise helping organisations make sustainable changes to become authentically neuroinclusive.
auticon isn’t just a company: we are a movement.
We encourage our partners to start their neuroinclusion journey by understanding where they currently are – what’s going well, what can be improved through a neurodiversity lens, and where the gaps are. Using data and listening to your colleagues, auticon’s Neurodiversity Inclusion Maturity Assessment can help define your best starting point and goals for maximum impact.
This bespoke set of services helps you develop and implement your own neurodiversity programmes. Our subject-matter experts review your needs and design a pathway to realise your neuroinclusion ambitions. This can be in developing a neuroinclusion strategy or analysing specific processes, policies, and practices, presenting recommendations and supporting implementation.
We provide training to address gaps in understanding of neurodivergence within the customer organisation and to break down barriers to supporting talent who are unaware they are neurodivergent or choose not to disclose.
We offer 3 types of CPD (Continuing Professional Development) accredited neurodiversity training programmes for employees within organisations.
These can be conducted separately as stand-alone products or as part of a strategic Neuroinclusion Services package of work for larger tangible impact.
Our experienced Neuroinclusion Specialists support your neurodivergent employees and managers by providing actionable guidance and support.
Our Specialists can be offered as a service to support customers with stand-alone scenarios or integrated into a broader Neuroinclusion Services program.
This interactive and engaging learning experience delivers insightful content from auticon’s neurodiversity subject matter experts and neurodivergent colleagues.
eLearning is designed to raise awareness of a changing neurodiverse workplace. It educates managers and employees on understanding what it means to be neurodivergent in the workplace and how to best work with their neurodivergent colleagues.
Our CPD-certified course certifies anyone taking the course as achieving “NeuroAware” status. Students will receive a digital credential to showcase their achievements across social channels.
Employers face a global talent shortage – auticon can help. By 2030, the global talent shortage is predicted to reach 85.2M workers. (Korn/Ferry, 2021) Worldwide, 87% of organizations are already experiencing a talent shortage or are expecting to face it within a few years (McKinsey, 2020.) The greatest need for talent exists in data analytics and IT management with advanced skills data analysis and mathematics.
Now is the time to attract and retain neurodivergent talent from a largely untapped talent pool. With proper support, neurodivergent employees can thrive in your organization, bringing fresh perspectives, and strengths in math, data and computer sciences.
auticon employs world-class technology that is ready to work on your next project. Our experienced teams range from entry-level to advanced computer and data scientists; 32% of our consultants have a Master’s degree or higher. While each of our consultants has unique skills that make them outstanding professionals, many experience cognitive benefits from autism, including advanced analytical and systemizing skills, innovative and creative intelligence, higher standards, increased productivity, and refreshingly honest perspectives.
We believe affecting change in one life is the starting point for changing society. We therefore measure our social performance through the difference auticon makes to the lives of our autistic colleagues, the impact on our customer organisations, and the role we play in creating awareness of neurodiversity in society.
Between 15-20% of the global population are neurodivergent. 2% are estimated to be autistic. Despite many autistic people being talented, qualified and keen to work, only 29% of autistic people are in full time work. Within the autistic workforce, a vast majority are under-employed, working in jobs that they are over-qualified or over-skilled for.
“I love that my skills and abilities are appreciated and that the main focus is on delivering good final results.” – auticon consultant
Through our innovation lab, we utilize an entrepreneurial mindset to develop commercial technology solutions to social and environmental challenges faced by autistic professionals, helping them succeed in the workplace.
Located at our office in London, auticon Labs will be a place where our neurodivergent teams, clients, and investors come together to collaborate on new ideas.
