About Apex Consulting

We are a team of strategists, engineers, and analysts united by a singular mission: helping enterprises thrive in the digital age.

Our story

Founded in 2013 by a group of former McKinsey and Google executives, Apex Consulting was born from a simple observation: most consulting firms were either great at strategy or great at execution — rarely both.

We set out to bridge that gap. By combining rigorous strategic thinking with deep technical expertise, we've built a practice that delivers transformation that actually sticks.

Over 12 years, we've partnered with more than 150 enterprises across financial services, healthcare, retail, and manufacturing — helping them navigate digital transformation, build competitive advantage, and create lasting value.

Our values

Four principles that guide every engagement and every decision we make.

Innovation

We challenge conventional thinking and embrace emerging technologies to deliver solutions that lead, not follow.

Integrity

Honest advice, transparent processes, and ethical practices are non-negotiable in every engagement.

Impact

We measure success by the tangible business outcomes we create for our clients, not the hours we bill.

Collaboration

We embed ourselves in your team, working as partners to ensure knowledge transfer and lasting capability.
