HUB 2050

HUB 2050 is a consulting team for those who hate consultants. We put the same effort and skill in a tech startup, as in an organic coffee or global fashion brand, in the revitalization of a neighborhood or the development of a village in Africa. It’s a crazy mess, yes, but it works just well. Just ask our clients. We engage your team and together cut across your challenges and value chain, to help you design, improve and disrupt your business, system or community. We’re an interdisciplinary group of people gets thrilled by turning complexity into opportunity and transformation. We love our job, it makes us come alive. Driven by a planet centric approach and a desire for sustainable change, our solutions always meet four criteria: economic viability, technical feasibility and social and ecological desirability. We thrive in the tension between profit and meaning. We embrace wasting time as the prerequisite to empathy, creativity, and innovation. Before seeking to provide answers, we seek to understand your questions. We recognize that both quantitative and qualitative research contribute to human understanding. We listen to what is not said. We don’t follow a single plan from start to finish. Likewise, life unfolding and human minds are complex. Our work is iterative, we learn from the clash of perspectives and things that fail. But we aspire to achieve the right flow. We strategize the best path forward, while embracing serendipity and following the unexpected. We are always fully grounded in the present, yet we never lose our focus on a bold vision for the future. Our work is transformational for the people involved, not just about getting bigger or faster. We’re fast and slow. We are shaping the future and expanding the art of possible. Together. The future needs curators.
