We help companies attract customers and investors, develop new initiatives, build strategic relationships and protect their reputations. Our way of working combines exceptional pace with close attention to detail, helping clients take greater control of what comes next.
Frame your game with Special Projects“People who understand problems from the bottom up, challenge your thinking, see around the next corner and stick around to help get things done are in short supply. Special Projects think more like founders than consultants—which is why they’re a preferred partner of ours for hard problems.”
“They can work with us on the bigger question of how the market sees us, then notice a small detail that works against the bigger picture. As a CEO, it’s valuable to have someone outside the organisation who knows our business, while bringing insights we might otherwise miss.”
“The combination of judgement, creativity and follow-through makes a real difference. There’s a genuine interest in understanding the whole situation, the business and the people involved.”
Since 2023, at least seven European firms recognised among the World’s Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company or Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies by the Financial Times have turned to us for counsel.
Among these and other clients are businesses listed on major European exchanges, several NYSE-listed companies, multiple regulated banks and a few of Europe’s leading private-market investors.
We decline assignments that conflict with existing ones and screen for conflicts before taking on new work.
