About us –

In today’s Intelligence Age, the world’s best businesses have no choice but to continuously strive to become smarter.

Our clients hold the key to this and are today harnessing the power of The Smart Cube’s solutions to unlock new innovation and profit streams.

The strength of our solutions is born of a powerful blend of people, tools and technology.

A rare breed -

Back in 2003, the world was a very different place - the consumer internet was less than 10 years old and the smartphone was still a novelty.

The Smart Cube was created as a new kind of business, one that would make sense of the reams of data being generated.

Since then it’s been quite a journey.

A journey that has seen us change the way organisations think about intelligence. A journey that has put our industry on the map. A journey that is only getting started.

Our future focus –

We do not exist to help our clients simply fire-fight today. We help them to look ahead and stay ahead. Our vision is to be the catalyst for organisational intelligence for the world’s leading firms.
