• How We Work With Our Partners

    Apex Catalytic brings a unique and differentiated point of view to every engagement, bringing to bear our 20 years of lived experience of innovation across research, engineering, impact investing, technology and AI, and executive leadership. These perspectives yield powerful insights and solutions that others miss, while our agile operating model lets you proceed at hyperspeed.

    Project-Based Engagements

    In our project-based advisory model, we co-create and execute against a scope of work for distinct problems or challenges and normally includes developing the strategy, tactics, and encompasses implementation at pilot or larger scales.

    Access-Based Advisory

    In our access-based model, we serve as your innovation, growth, and insights partner on an ongoing basis. This model works best with our partners moving very quickly and desire continuous value delivery, often provided in distinct sprints with various types of physical and digital outputs.

    Impact Ignition is our next-gen workshop model that helps groups (10+ stakeholders) address tricky sustainability challenges that require collective, collaborative effort. We deploy these workshops for internal corporate teams, cross-functional stakeholder groups, and at conferences. Learn more about Impact Ignition Workshops here.
