Did you know that half of all Europeans don’t vote in the EU elections? It’s time to change that – and your company can help make it happen. Join more than 150 European companies in turning the 9th of June into a celebration of democracy. A day when everyone votes – no matter what.
Democracy is everybody's business. Now, you can make it the business of your business as well.
We Don’t Have Time is a proud partner of the Vote Anyway, a brilliant campaign by the 9o6 movement that aims to mobilize 457 million Europeans to vote in the European Elections on June 9.
What makes this campaign unique is that it is directed towards companies.
Why? you might think. Companies don’t get to vote in the elections.
True. But companies are not just economic entities, they are also social players with considerable power to influence. Brands often reach beyond national borders, touching billions of people through their products, services and marketing campaigns.
Moreover, many business leaders occupy positions that give them significant influence over the attitudes and behaviours of our employees, business partners and customers.
Many companies also have the ears of politicians either directly or via trade associations. In respect to climate action, for example, many commentators agree that the landmark Paris Climate Agreement of 2015 would never have been forged without a range of progressive business leaders urging governments to seal the deal.
The 9o6 movement is on a mission to get as many European companies as possible to use their influence to increase voter turnout in the upcoming European Elections.
The goal: To increase voter turnout with +5 million citizens. (+1% compared to the European Election in 2019). 
The campaign images can be tailor-made to suit your own business.
The non-partisan 9o6 movement was created by Civocracy, a French agency working with mission-driven companies, and is co-launched by Earth4All, BLab Europe, GOPA Com, and We Don’t Have Time.
”We have been living in peace in the EU for over 80 years. But we seem to have forgotten how being able to vote, protest and freely express one's opinions are hard-won rights that can be called into question in a split second”, says Chloé Pahud, CEO and Founder of Civocracy.
So far, more than 100 European companies have joined the campaign. Among those are Refurbed, Einhorn, Jaw, Advens and ChangeNOW, which together reach more than ten million Europeans on social media. More are signing up every day.
Ingmar Rentzhog, CEO and founder of We Don’t Have Time is eager to help grow this pioneer brand movement for democracy.
”The ways this campaign uses the influence of companies to mobilize voters is simply brilliant. We are proud to be a part of this democracy movement and will do our best to mobilize as many European companies in our network as we possibly can.”
Join the 9o6 movement! Together, we’ll mobilize our audiences to vote in the EU parliamentary elections in June.
