A Note From Our CEO

Altanova was created with the idea that real value creation in large business endeavours has to benefit all stakeholders and comes from building bridges between technical innovation, operational excellence and market strategy as well as the humans behind these functions. We believe that deep engagement, intellectual rigor and humility in front of the complexity of our mission are keys to activate lasting, sustainable transformations in our clients' organizations.

While grounded in deep engineering, data science and creative business strategies, Altanova's approach to problem solving is rooted in the scientific method: in each industry, organizations have specific needs to achieve a successful transformation contributing to a clean, circular economy, healthier communities, and environment. We identify these needs with an iterative process of goals setting, solutions development, and impact measurements that create feedback mechanisms for lasting impacts.

Energy costs are rising, infrastructure is failing, and climate change threatens our world as we know it. The time for businesses and organizations to act is now and institutional investors are expecting corporate executives to turn physical and transitional risks into opportunities. These conditions reward the first movers who will commit to bold transformations.

The journey towards sustainability starts with a single step - and we're here to help make that happen. Join us as we create impactful solutions that preserve our world for generations to come.
