Our History
Our story begins in 1997 with founders Bruce Grant and his long-time partner Jan Stenbeck, head of the Stockholm-based Kinnevik Group. Tired of working with consultants who delivered presentations but never results, Stenbeck turned to Grant in pursuit of a better way – consultancy driven by financial value and tangible impact. Tasked with this ideal, Grant founded Applied Value as a part-external, part-internal management consultancy focused on expedient solutions and a commitment to return on investment.

Today, Applied Value carries out our founders’ vision as a fully independent boutique management consultancy, investment, and social impact firm. Operating out of offices around the world, we offer clients the global perspective of an international firm coupled with the tailored, value-oriented approach that makes up our DNA.
Our clients include the world’s largest and most innovative companies and span a wide variety of industries from Automotive and Industrials to Telecommunications and Technology. Across industries and specialties, we target core business issues and engage clients with an unbiased, action-oriented approach.
Leadership
Applying Lean Growth principles to large corporations, small companies, and start-ups as well as NGOs to create financial value – it works every time.
