The Nous Story so Far

The Nous Story so Far

Nous was established in 1999 with the aspiration of building a consulting firm that made a substantial, positive contribution. Not just to our clients and their businesses, but also to the customers and communities they serve.

It worked. This aspiration, fueled by the expertise and passion of many Nousers past and present, has led to more than 20 years of uninterrupted growth.

As we have grown from 20 people to 700, we have built our strategy with strong reference to purpose. This means we ask ourselves ‘What sectors should we work in? What issues should we work on? How can we partner with clients in ways that will have a significant positive impact on people’s lives?’

We also seek to grow in a way that allows our people to have rewarding professional lives where they continue to develop individually and collectively.

Played out over our 20 years, this has resulted in a stimulating journey with many highlights. Here are some of these highlights, and a sense of what’s ahead…
