Vertical
We stimulate growth through collaborative, strategic and transactional services. Our key expertise are: Market Intelligence, Transaction Advisory, Service Design, Innovation Strategy, Collaboration Projects and venture Building. In the early days of Vertical, we supported startups to become the best versions of themselves. We were great at what we did, yet along the way we noticed the changing needs of the market, and realised we could offer something even better. We adapted and grew into a new space, to focus on strategic development and using collaboration as a tool. When it comes to growth, strategy and collaboration, we don’t just talk the talk: we walk the walk too.
