About Us
We are a Knowledge Transfer and Economic Growth Development consulting firm
Convergence Consulting is an organization that looks at the turn around of our world today from a different perspective. Multicultural diversity and globalization has not in many cases as expected delivered positive spin-offs for minority communities in the “developed world ” and “the larger developing world – African Countries”.
This is more evident from the recent developments in our world today. If steps in the right direction are not taken, many of the minority citizens in the developed nations and all citizens in developing nations will be “left out” on the knowledge acquisition needed for development. This will therefore cause a grave social in-balance and as a consequence an increase in conflicts, social disorder and increased poverty.
Convergence Consulting aims to tackle these issues pragmatically, by providing consulting services to the greater public, both in the public and private sector with the use of inherent knowledge in modern-day technology, grassroots orientation and economic growth development strategies. Our consulting practice is put to reality by launching practical projects for immediate results. These projects are executed and manned as separate entities, but coordinated by the CEO and staff of Convergence Consulting.
Convergence Consulting is run with two structural paths
Interactive Consulting
Our interactive consulting unit delivers "normal" consulting services across industries and to the public sector. These services are sometimes delivered on request, either from the public or private sector. In other cases, we deliver our services with a more pro-active mindset to the market.
Project Oriented Consulting
Our project-oriented consulting unit delivers value to the society at large, through project oriented environments. We create environments whereby issues and areas of interest are executed as a project to achieve the same effect that we want it to have as when we consult our clients.
