Principal Financial Institutions (Banks, diversified Asset Managers, Asset Owners) / Climate Transition Advisory

À propos

Let’s get right to the point: we believe the best is yet to come, if we put everything we have into inventing new rules for a new economy. We want to play a role in creating these innovative rules and tools, beginning with new ways to define what success is. So, who are we? We’re the Blunomists: a unique breed of highly experienced business explorers and experts who provide the multidisciplinary skills that are so often fragmented today. We believe breaking silos is the only way to move towards a regenerative society that’s decarbonized, circular and inclusive. 🌎

We are action-oriented and offer more than a consulting-only business model: we don’t shy away from complexity, we work hand-in-hand with our clients and partners in the long term and we share the risks when it comes to success. From strategic advice to industrial partnerships and innovative data solutions, we strive to provide end-to-end transformations.

We’re never happier than when we’re pushing boundaries:

  • Accelerating the go-to-market rate for promising and innovative technologies
  • Transforming existing infrastructure into low-carbon and resilient infrastructure
  • Switching from linear and global supply chains to multiple, circular, local, ethical and largely bio- sourced supply chains, while ensuring social cohesion
  • Optimizing land use to respond to growing needs for food and housing, recreate biodiversity, produce bioenergy and capture carbon
  • Ensuring that this period of increased attention on the environment creates a reduction in inequalities, with a particular focus on the development of essential infrastructure around the world These are the transition bottlenecks that get us up in the morning. 🌅

Although we’ve already got plenty of incredible projects to work on, we’re a growing organization. So, stay tuned in the coming months to find out more about us, and until then, feel free to send us your application!

Blunomy is the result of a perfect match between Isabelle Kocher de Leyritz, former CEO of ENGIE and internationally renowned business leader, and Enea Consulting, a pioneering strategy consulting firm specializing in the energy transition. Sharing a common goal of bringing about a positive economy, they decided to join forces to contribute to make change happen.

Blunomy was founded by Isabelle Kocher de Leyritz in 2022. ENEA Consulting brought 100% of its shares in the adventure, to build a common future in a truly unique company. Blunomy is fully owned by Blunomy Manco, a company composed of Blunomy's managers.
