Technology has changed our world forever and will continue to do so. This continuous change is what keeps life interesting. Yet the speed at which we innovate makes it hard for organizations and governments to keep up with technology, deal with business as usual, while also making all of the right choices.
This pressure on today’s leaders negatively impacts the quality of their decisions. We have seen many examples of organizations and governments making technology-driven decisions with all the right intentions, that ended up hurting their co-workers, their clients/citizens and eventually their business. What makes it extra difficult is the fact that we cannot forecast all consequences that these new and emerging technologies may have on business and society, and how they should be used.
A big reason why this is happening is that human-, technological and business knowledge are mostly treated as separate disciplines within organizations and within research. This is of course a good thing, however, they are hardly blended which means that these different types of intelligence are scattered within organizations without the much-needed overlap. That is why we jumped in that gap and specialized in performing more holistic research since 2017, in which we look at these types of problems from a perspective that combines knowledge from these areas. Through this way we can help leaders make better decisions, whether they are active within the commercial, non-profit or public sector.

Our cornerstone: Research
The cornerstone of our existence is our research. Our research is exclusively concentrated around the intersection of technology and humans, so that we can help leaders make decisions that benefit their organizations as well as all the humans that are involved. No concessions.
What sets our research apart from what other institutions are doing, is that we have a very holistic approach. We combine social and business sciences with current market trends, ethics and several technological disciplines such as AI and automation. This enables us to gain insights on what is going on right now and helps us gain a glimpse of how this may affect the future. That is why we are one of the go-to places in the world for leaders that face all types of challenges surrounding technology and humans.
