WHAT WE DO
We work with decision makers within companies and municipalities to achieve transformative change through developing and growing their sustainability+revitalization niche.

For corporations, that often means developing sustainability+revitalization strategies and business development opportunities for niche-focused growth. For municipalities, it means working on economic development, and often a "Green City" plan, that takes into account the unique attributes of place. For non-profits, it means helping to grow their impact in a way that is unique to both the organization and the audience they are serving.

We address many of the core challenges involved in growing your sustainability+revitalization niche, including: strategy, innovation, business development, bio-inspired product / service development, organizational change, and leadership. In some cases, the work we do to unlock growth within a sustainability+revitalization niche involves integrating all these areas in a customized way.
