Architecture is a critical strategic function, not an obscure technology discipline. But its practice is often viewed as complex and impenetrable.


By removing the noise, Konvergent reimagines Architecture, increasing the value and relevance of Architecture as a strategic enabler. Whatever the organisational challenge, we will help solve it – and then illuminate that solution with striking visuals that will make senior stakeholders sit up and take notice.


At Konvergent we focus on what’s best for our clients. We are a team of helpful, empathetic people who offer high EQ as well as IQ. And our advice has the objectivity that comes from having no
vendor partnerships (nor any other downstream agenda).


We design digital business transformations and future-ready technology solutions, helping our clients to describe their future, design the change and guide the realization of their strategy through
an innovative combination of Business Design, Architecture, and award-winning Visual Comms, underpinned by robust Delivery Management.


Over the last 5 years we have grown and evolved to become a highly resilient business and an
emerging challenger to the established big 4 consultancies. For us, the next 5 years is about building a business that becomes the reference point for Architecture services in the UK and we invite you to
join us on this pioneering and ambitious journey.


We are driven to realise the full potential of Business Design and Enterprise Architecture as critical enablers of transformation in the Digital age. Are you?
