Together for a good cause: the collaboration between share and Mister Spex
In an inspiring conversation with Ben Unterkofler, co-founder and Chief Growth Officer of share, we delve into the origins of share, its mission and the impressive collaboration with Mister Spex.
Mister Spex sets an example against blood cancer
Winter is just around the corner and the festive season is approaching. For many of us, it’s a time of giving and giving thanks. At Mister Spex, we want to use this festive mood to do something good not only for ourselves, but also for others. We are therefore launching a special campaign in December and January: all Mister Spex employees living in Germany are cordially invited to register with the DKMS. The best thing about it: Mister Spex will cover the costs as a donation.

Mister Spex at the Berlin company run 2023
On 16 May 2023 it was that time again, around 15,000 runners, walkers and skaters from almost 900 companies took part in the 21st Berlin Company Run. Among them: a running delegation from Mister Spex! Along the 5.5 kilometre route, there were some well-known city landmarks to see, including the Brandenburg Gate and the Victory Column. Our Spexies all mastered the run with flying colours and toasted with a non-alcoholic beer afterwards. By the way, they also did something for their mental health.
Mental health at work: “I make sure that I don’t get caught up in the stress vortex in the first place”
During Mental Health Awareness Month, Mister Spex would like to bring the topic of mental health further into focus and contribute to getting more people talking about it. Together with our partner OpenUp, we have therefore recorded a video to stimulate the discourse. In the interview with psychologist Eva from OpenUp, our Director of Customer Service Pamela talks openly and honestly about dealing with stress, her role as a leader and the challenges Customer Service faced during the Corona pandemic. But why is it so important to talk about Mental Health?
