Nile – The Strategic Design Consultancy
We’re the changemaker’s
secret weapon
Nile is a strategic design consultancy.
We use design, research, and foresight to help changemakers clear the path to progress.
Established in 2006, Nile is a multidisciplinary team of designers, researchers, and foresight practitioners, supported by a global network of associate specialists.
We specialise in bringing design, research and foresight to complex, heavily regulated organisations.
We help these organisations do what designers do best, at scale: we introduce new perspectives, break down silos, and zoom in on services, customers, and the planet, turning strategy into solutions.
It’s why we’re known as the changemakers’ secret weapon.
