\u201cGo as far as you can see; when you get there you\u2019ll be able to see farther\u201d, Thomas Carlyle<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Inspired by the web, we create Constellations (federated partnership programmes) that turn social, environmental and economic impact into business as usual. Based on evidence, we help deploy capital, humans and machines to address today\u2019s challenges at scale.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dgen Constellations are a ‘many-parts-loosely-joined’, collective intelligence network comprising over 80 dedicated experts with deep commercial, startup, government and NGO experience who have worked at international, national and local levels.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We bring together dedicated experts to deliver specific outcomes against a fixed deadline and budget. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike a consultancy, we’re not here just to ‘point’. Unlike an agency, we’re not here to retain you as a client beyond our useful impact. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

We are here to help achieve a 10-100x return on investment in social, environmental and economic impacts. We are unashamedly ambitious…and acutely aware of the challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The way we work is similar to the way you\u2019d run a movie studio (developing a movie you’d pick the script, the budget and the timeline). Working together, we help co-create the script, budget, and timeline, as well as hand-pick the team to meet the project needs and deliver. Sometimes we’re the Director, other times we’re the Producers. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it doesn\u2019t work (and halting criteria are key), we start again and do it better. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If it does work, we start again and do it better. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Dgen Constellation includes freelancers, small and big companies, financiers, cities and governments. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The strategy is delivery<\/span><\/a>.  Our guiding principles are:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
