What we do
We create value
True value creation needs a lasting, trusted reputation and sustainable, profitable growth. You can’t have one without the other. To win, your story, relationships and growth engine must work as one. That’s what we build with you: a reputation that opens doors and holds under pressure, and a growth engine that turns trust into revenue and value.

Founder and CEO
Will Anderson MBE
Will is a reputation, growth and corporate affairs leader who brings clarity, alignment and calm to complex situations. For more than thirty years he has worked in fast-growing international businesses across the US, Europe, the GCC and Africa, helping leaders build value, strengthen reputation, and see change through.
Most comfortable in highly demanding situations that require a ‘whole business view’ and a clear grasp of context, he loves connecting people, organisations, and ideas to get the best things done right.
Will’s worn many hats, and has been fortunate to hold a number of senior roles, working with smart people and great organisations. As a Partner at Brunswick and Managing Director in Abu Dhabi, he advised boards, governments and sovereign investors on M&A and crisis. He then joined Careem’s leadership team through its US$3.1bn acquisition by Uber, and later held leadership roles at Featurespace and Eastnets.
The formative years of his life were spent serving as an officer with the British Army. Will has an MBA from Cranfield University and was made an MBE in the 2007 New Year’s Honours List for exemplary leadership.
