About NGNY
Who we are
NGNY is a 100% Aboriginal owned and operated end-to-end digital agency founded in 2014 by Liam Ridgeway and John Saulo.
Indigenous Digital Economy & Impact
At NGNY we want to make an impact on our community. We coined a term Indigenous Digital Economy which aims to identify and build on the ways in which technology can positively impact on Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander culture and community sustainability. For us this is a journey of how technology can play a pivotal role in preserving culture and using these tools to teach culture across Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander communities as well as non-Indigenous communities nationally and internationally.
As a business, we are impacting Indigenous Digital Economy through educational and employment opportunities and through the growth of an online business marketplace that offers a pathway into economic participation for Indigenous owned and operated businesses.
Why NGNY
Culturally appropriate
We are experienced in working with Indigenous specific audiences. We pride ourselves on our ability to engage with and design solutions with Our community in-mind.
Indigenous network
We are actively engaged in seeking out and working with other Indigenous businesses and creatives. We understand the importance of enhancing the Indigenous supply chain and are in a position to advise organisations on where other Indigenous talent can be integrated into projects.
Impact driven outcomes
Because NGNY actively invests in Indigenous talent, any project that NGNY is engaged in directly impacts the local Aboriginal community through the employment of our team.
Leveraging technology to showcase, teach and enhance Our culture will ensure future generations will be able to consume Our culture and make it thrive.
Our Approach
Our Philosophy
We follow a customer-centric approach which allows us to be agile throughout the design and build process to allow for changing requirements of our clients through early continuous delivery. This approach is driven around transparency, connection and collaboration related to short sprints and an ongoing loop of development and feedback.
Impact
We value and place significant importance on our involvement and influence in projects that have a positive impact across Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander communities and their respective socioeconomic ecosystems.
We have a priority to seek and be engaged in projects that impact the preservation and enhancement of Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander culture and which support sustainable and long term impact and growth of culture, education, housing, health and self-determination.
