OUR STRUGGLE - A MANIFESTO


: A Silent but Very Real Form of Discrimination

In most companies, some employees—often frontline teams—are excluded from information and company life. Because they work with their hands, it’s still all too often assumed that they don’t need to know, don’t need to understand, and don’t need to participate.

‍I reject this view. A strong company is one that involves all its teams and recognizes the person behind the hands. Every employee matters. Everyone can make a difference.

Why "steeple"?

The bell tower: one of the oldest forms of internal communication.

While searching for a name to embody communication, connection, and community, my gaze drifts toward the window. In the distance, a bell tower.

The symbolism is immediately apparent. Its bells ring out, without distinction, both good news and bad. Its spire serves as a landmark for an entire community. The bell tower brings people together. It unites them.

All that remains is to give it an international reach. “Clocher” thus becomes “Steeple.”

10 years, one direction.

From an R&D department at the heart of a traditional Breton company to a platform used every day by hundreds of thousands of employees.

CHAPTER 01 •

2015–2016

R&D

Steeple was founded within a traditional Breton retail company with a clear mission: to improve internal communication, particularly with frontline teams. For over a year, the team grappled with real-world challenges, and one thing became clear: functionality alone isn’t enough—it’s accessibility that makes the difference. In June 2016, the invention of the Steeple touchscreen changed everything.

Takeoff

With the touchscreen, the solution took shape. The marketing phase began: the team took shape, the first sales representatives hit the road, and customers started coming in one after another. By the end of 2018, the goal was achieved: the first million euros in revenue. In 2020, Steeple reached a symbolic milestone by exhibiting at CES in Las Vegas.

Breathing

After several years of hypergrowth, it’s timeto consolidate our gains, stabilize our position, and better serve our customers. This is a deliberate pause, during which the team is refocusing, rethinking its foundations, and preparing for the next phase. A phase that will begin in 2026, on a stronger foundation than ever before.
