We build from experience
Every product answers a problem we have lived with, not one we imagined.
About · How we work
A tech firm that turns problems into products
The Human Growth Network builds software for real business problems, and the network of people who make that possible.
Our story
From connecting people to shipping products
HGN began by connecting businesses with skilled people, often across borders. Along the way we kept seeing the same problems show up in the businesses we worked with, and we started building tools to solve them. Those tools became products. Today, building and shipping our own software is what drives us, with SoniVera and OrFlo leading the way.
How we work
Three things we hold to
We keep humans in the loop
Real people stand behind the quality of what we ship.
We still partner
Businesses that want to build alongside us, or tap our network of talent, are welcome.

Our remote professionals
Experiences from our remote professionals
The people behind the work, in their own words.
Sophiya
Graphic designer · Remote professional
The Human Growth Network is the best company I have ever worked for. The culture is respectful, supportive, and built on trust.
Sophiya designed our full brand identity, including the logo we are proud of, and works on print, websites, and branding for clients. The room to take on new challenges, from WordPress development to deeper branding work, is what let her grow both personally and professionally.
Rico
Business development & IT · Remote professional
I see my role as opening doors, for new clients and for our professionals alike. The balance between freedom and clear expectations works perfectly for me.
Rico pairs IT expertise with business development, building bridges between technology and commercial opportunities. He points to our hybrid way of working as the reason it holds together: remote talent paired with someone local who understands the context, so clients feel at ease and the team feels supported.
Kamille
Assistant bookkeeper · Remote professional
Working remotely gives me both flexibility and security, and I know I can always turn to HGN whenever I need something. The trust and the direct contact with clients make the work all the more rewarding.
Kamille joined as an assistant bookkeeper and now serves two accountancy firms, in Zwijndrecht and Capelle aan den IJssel. What started as an entry-level role quickly grew into one where she handles client contact on her own and takes on tasks with real confidence, proof that remote work reaches well beyond IT.
George
Full stack developer · Remote professional
Working as a developer in the Philippines, I work with a Dutch team every day. What makes the difference is the local coordinator who keeps our communication clear.
George has been a steady presence since the start, building software for client projects as a full stack developer. The Human Growth Network always puts a local coordinator in place, which smooths over cultural differences and keeps the collaboration professional. The freedom and trust he is given, he says, give him the room to do his best work.
