Digital culture is our business
We are passionate advocates for meeting our customers and collaborators where they are and supporting growth and development from their unique standpoint.
We believe that digital capability, strategy, and transformation is unique to each individual and organisation.
By identifying digital opportunities, coaching, and developing the skillsets of others and meeting early market demand, Meeum have developed a strong reputation for our inclusive ways of working and expertise in developing digital cultures.
We don’t make things complicated when they can be easily understood. This is a world, a skill set and an opportunity that is open to everyone.

We believe you should know our values because this helps you make the call to come and learn with us. You’ll know if we’re the right crowd for you by whether you like our values.

Sam Hemphill
Sam’s coding career began over 10 years ago when he made the leap from musician and tour manager to full time code guy.
Since this time, he has worked with some of the biggest names in Australia, including Qantas, Coles, News Limited, ANZ, EPA & Accenture.
More than creating great code for some seriously big (and fantastic little) companies, Sam has fought the good fight for years when it comes to making the complex easily understood and promoting harmony across technical and design teams.
Sam’s is a passionate voice in the subject of teaching code and this shows in the lovely words our students have to say about us.

What makes Meeum different
Digital inclusion and accessibility are cornerstones of who we are and why Meeum was created.
Director Sam Hemphill is a tertiary educator with a reputation for inclusive and accessible curriculum development and has certifications in web accessibility.
Director Elyse Maberley is a non-executive director of two community organisations and has completed National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) Worker Orientation. She also holds a current Queensland Government “Yellow Card” (disability worker screening clearance card).
It is our responsibility to create learning environments of mutual exchange, respect, and inclusion.
We are aware that the onus is on us and our team to continually learn from diverse communities outside of our own and refine our practices in response to this knowledge.
We acknowledge that we benefit from the mutual exchange of the work that we do and seek to amplify the voices, work and opportunities of everyone we work with. Where we don’t know, we will always ask, and we strive to create healthy communities of support, collaboration, and exchange.
