About Us

BusinessLab is a small, creative and highly motivated team. Whilst our core business is action research, our passion is to ensure that everything we do is effectively applied for the benefit of our partners and clients - who range from multinational corporations to third sector entrepreneurs.

We're working at the cutting edge of social innovation - in community capacity building, in school and family engagement and in economic inclusion. Our partners here are schools, third sector organisations and major corporates with a strong social agenda.

BusinessLab tools, processes and people have been embedded in long term change management programmes by the leadership of some of the country's major corporations. And, by government, we've been commissioned to design some of the most radical approaches to step change economic development in the last 30 years.

Our academic partners range from the ancient Scottish universities, through global educational brands such as MIT, to the new generation of ambitious and forward thinking colleges who are seeking to secure a niche for themselves in a fast-moving global learning marketplace.

But central to our approach, whoever we work with, the focus is on building lasting relationships, on tackling challenges, on exploring issues in fresh and exciting ways and on creating innovative solutions.

Take a few minutes to look through our team snapshots. Whoever you share your time with at BusinessLab, you'll quickly come to see that meeting the needs of our partners and clients - multinational corporation, national government, small business or local community - and delivering lasting and meaningful results, is what BusinessLab is all about.
