Our vision, mission, and core values guide our work at Stratosphere Networks. They remind and inspire us to strive every day to be the best we can be as trusted technology advisors to our clients.
Mission
To empower our clients through exceptional service.
At Stratosphere, we won't settle for being average or even good at what we do. We strive to consistently deliver outstanding services.
Vision
To be the technology partner that everyone wants to work with.

Higher purpose statement
At Stratosphere, we believe in setting aside our own interests to give back and contribute to the greater good. The community service we perform doesn't just help the people we serve but also enriches our lives. It allows us to expand our focus and remember there's more to life than just work and material things. To quote Bryan Loritts, the lead pastor of Abundant Life Church in Silicon Valley, "I've never seen a U-Haul truck at a cemetery."
Our commitment to serving others goes beyond providing strategic IT consulting services. We recognize the importance of giving back to the community that supports us by showing compassion and extending a helping hand to those in need. We support many charities and communities across the country, although we pay special attention to the Chicago area, particularly when it comes to volunteer efforts.
Through our community service program, our team members can earn up to 2 extra days of paid time off by participating in volunteer activities selected by our company. To learn more about our efforts to give back to our community, please visit our Giving Back page.
