Nadia from edgeryders. I have a soution and problem. The solution is consultancy for innovative business. Problem consultancy is broken. Globalunrest, rapid climate change, mass unemployment, outdated governance structures. So we turn to consultants for advice and perspective. But theMckinseys ofer old world solutions to new world problems. You cant solve the problems of the future with solutions of the past. Edgeryders hasthe network and methodology to consult on questions at edge of context. We are here today because we want to partner with you and access yournetworks.

People experimenting with alternative responses to new problems exist on the edge. People looking for answers & who have resources live here.The people with resources ask the Mckinseys of the world to help make sense of whats going on.

Problem: fighting organised crime. Solution: Maa-free equivalent of fare trade labelling forbusinesses that step forward and refuse to pay protection money to the Maa. Easier for consumersto support them and inspires others to also act against organised crime by showing that if you do it,no one will come after you.
