Our 'Future of' themes
Our world is shifting rapidly, and with it, the complex challenges our clients and society face. Together with our clients, government and our colleagues, we aim to make measurable impact on key societal issues. We focus on four themes: the Future of Health, Energy, Food, and Security. These are focus areas where we’re already building ecosystems and driving meaningful progress.
Future of Health
The healthcare sector is under increasing pressure from rising costs, an ageing population, and workforce shortages. To address these challenges, we advocate a shift from reactive care to proactive health management. By leveraging digital innovations and encouraging collaboration across the health ecosystem, we aim to enhance patient outcomes and ensure sustainable, affordable care for all.

Future of Energy
Achieving a sustainable energy future requires a comprehensive transition to renewable sources and net-zero emissions by 2050 to meet the Paris 1.5º climate goals. We support this transformation by advising on renewable energy strategies, fostering innovation, and facilitating collaboration among stakeholders. Our initiatives, such as the Energy Transition Monitor, provide insights to navigate the complexities of the energy landscape.

Future of Food
The global food system faces the dual challenge of feeding a growing population and reducing environmental impact. We work towards a sustainable, resilient food ecosystem by promoting responsible production, reducing waste, and encouraging healthy consumption patterns. Through our Net Positive platform, we collaborate with clients in several industries to drive innovation and transform the food landscape.

Future of Security
Geopolitical tensions, cyber threats, and disinformation are growing—and the Netherlands’ openness makes it especially vulnerable. Security is no longer solely the responsibility of the military or police; it requires joint action from governments, organisations, and citizens. A Whole-of-Society approach brings these forces together to mitigate risks and build resilience. Our experts help organisations navigate these challenges with future-proof strategies and practical solutions, supporting a safer, more stable Netherlands.
