ABOUT US
We travel the exponential change journey with you
We work alongside change leaders to enable impact at scale. During this sometimes smooth, sometimes choppy journey, we learn to view the problem at scale, reimagine how to trigger a domino effect and help design for scale.
We’ve engaged with more than 500 global change leaders in more than 20 countries. We work closely with change leaders as well as through Partners such as Ashoka, Co-Impact and Catalyst 2030.
We are a member of the Centre for Exponential Change (C4EC) – a global network of diverse actors committed to solving social problems faster than they grow. C4EC is collaborative co-funded by Nilekani Philanthropies.
Create change that inspires more and rapid change with Societal Thinking
Social change becomes exponential when it induces a domino effect of more and rapid changes towards building a better society.
Societal Thinking is systemic approach that has been developed through many “Do-Think-Do” cycles with change leaders across the globe. The “Do” cycles involved co-exploring, designing and building missions that create impact at population scale and the “Think” cycles helped distil the learning into a set of core values, design principles and frameworks that are open for everyone to use and build upon.
