Statera is a growing management consulting startup founded in 2022 by former leaders from established Consulting companies (Deloitte, PwC) and aims at solving one of the biggest challenges and business cases in recent years: Connected Planning.

If your idea is interesting to our Planning Excellence ecosystem, we’re open to consider spin-offs – you could be your own CEO faster than you think!
- Sense of impact – Connected Planning is great. But embedding Sustainability in Connected Planning is even more important. At Statera, we try to create something unique: we embed Sustainability challenges in every Connected Planning project we do.
