We work across sectors to help purposeful organisations make change happen

We’re a London-based advisory team working internationally at the intersection of
business & society

We help companies embed purpose into their ESG and sustainability strategies. Supporting non-profits, UN agencies and philanthropies to turn mission into measurable social and environmental impact.
Because no single sector can solve the challenges that matter most, we specialise in the cross-sector partnerships that deliver shared value and make lasting change possible.

Who we are

We're a diverse and flexible team of change-makers and problem-solvers

Nimble, adaptable, with experienced perspectives to advise and challenge. Together, we bring our unique mix of insight, passion, and curiosity to bear on projects big and small.

The C&E Barometer

Highlights of the 2025 Edition include three special topics: navigating push-back on the ESG Agenda, the impact of ODA cuts on ESG delivery and strategic partnering, and the adoption of generative AI in partnerships going forward.
