Other Sectors

We need to transform all sectors of the economy to create a sustainable world

We aim to transform the critical systems that we depend on to make them fit for the challenges of the 21st century. We are currently focusing on food, energy and finance, but we continue to work on ground-breaking projects in other areas where we can have an impact and learn more about system innovation for sustainability.

 

In the last 15 years we have worked with a wide range of partners across diverse sectors such as ICT, health, fashion, transport and the built environment and on a wide range of issues. This gives us practical knowledge of sustainability in the round, and a depth and breadth of experience to draw on in all our work.
