Tackling Today’s Critical Challenges

Key Areas of Focus

acumen7 brings insight and experience to explore the most urgent questions facing business and society. These are our current priority areas where our network is making an impact

Construction & Infrastructure

We challenge traditional models and ask, “In whose interest is it to change — and more importantly, not to change?” The industry must deliver more value while avoiding unsustainable costs.

Futures & The Future Of Work

From AI to hybrid models to purposeful leadership, we explore how organisations adapt and thrive in a world of shifting expectations.

Energy & Net Zero

Our recent work includes shaping proposals for a fair, secure and sustainable transition to clean energy (including SMR Nuclear) - a generational Mission of the utmost importance.

Mentoring & Leadership Support

We provide mentoring and leadership support to members, associates and also to senior leaders who are outside a7, helping them to navigate complexity, develop resilience and pursue their goals with confidence.

Who We’ve Worked With

Our guest speakers and collaborators come from diverse sectors, often leading in areas such as Net Zero, the Future of Work, and infrastructure innovation. Open, honest discussion is central to how acumen7 drives fresh thinking and real impact.
