WHO ARE WE

ABOUT A2D CONSULTING

OUR VISION

"We want to help organizations and professionals to continuously develop their skills and expand their knowledge sets to achieve excellence and leadership in a global and digital world."


​It was with this mission in mind that we created  A2D Consulting.

Markets are increasingly global and digital, with national boundaries disappearing thanks to the Internet. Companies now have a quick, easy and even cheaper way to communicate with their customers and to internationalize thereby increasing their volume of business and customers in other countries.


Consumers are also increasingly global and digital. Every day about half of the world's population uses the Internet not only to work, learn, and entertain but also to buy goods and services. These purchases can happen from home, work, when traveling or even from within the physical stores themselves. More than half of online shoppers shop across borders for more diversity, convenience and even lower prices.

WHAT WE WANT TO RESOLVE 

The vast experience we have in this sector and our involvement in numerous projects as consultants and managers in various parts of the world allows us to conclude that most traditional companies (and their current teams) are not properly prepared to progress, and to take advantage of all the great advantages of a digital transformation.


It is our belief that most organizations today face three major problems:
  1. Lack of skills and in-depth knowledge needed to develop a digital strategy
  2. Lack of a fully integrated and cross-organizational digital strategy, or simply the lack of a digital strategy
  3. Lack of digital management tools (research, market data, case studies, best practices, vendor selection, etc.) that can ensure a positive and powerful impact on company performance.

OUR MISSION 

We want to be the strategic partner of the digital transformation of our customers. To provide access to solutions, and services to help traditional enterprises reinvent their business models, develop their skills, and deepen their knowledge to achieve excellence in the digital world.


We want to help our clients define a digital strategy that encompasses their entire organization and drive high-impact digital initiatives that enable them to position themselves at industry leading levels of digital excellence.
