Two cities. One team

We make high-quality strategy consulting available to the organisations that do the most good and can least afford it — while giving students from TU Delft and Erasmus Rotterdam their first real consulting experience.

The mission

Strategy for the organisations that can least afford it

We make high-quality strategy consulting available to non-profits, social enterprises, and mission-driven institutions — while giving students from TU Delft and Erasmus Rotterdam their first real consulting experience.

Two cities, two universities, one team: the technical depth of Delft and the business acumen of Rotterdam, pointed at problems that matter. We are the first multi-city branch of 180 Degrees Consulting, the world's largest university-based consultancy.

Our focus is impact — but it isn't a gate. We work with almost any organisation trying to do good. If that's you, you're in the right place; if you're not sure you fit, ask us anyway.

Why two cities

Expanding from TU Delft to Erasmus University Rotterdam made us the first multi-city branch in 180DC's global network. It also gave every project team two kinds of mind.

Delft

Technical depth

TU Delft engineers, designers, and scientists — people whose instinct is to take a system apart and find where it actually fails.

Rotterdam

Business acumen

Erasmus Rotterdam economists and management students — people who think in models, markets, and what a board will actually approve.

What we will not do

We don't invent things

This is the rule the whole branch is organised around, and it is why parts of this site are visibly reserved rather than filled with something plausible.

  • No invented statistics. If we can't source a number, we don't print one.
  • No fabricated testimonials. Member and client quotes appear only with consent, verbatim.
  • No stock faces standing in for our team. Every photograph on this site is a real, credited photograph of Delft or Rotterdam.
  • No case studies until the client agrees to publication.

The same rule governs our quality system: a finding must quote the document verbatim, or stay silent.

Part of something larger

180 Degrees Consulting worldwide

180 Degrees Consulting is the world's leading provider of very affordable, high quality consulting services for non-profits, social enterprises, and socially minded companies — with branches at universities across dozens of countries.

Delft–Rotterdam is one of those branches, and the first to span two cities. Every branch is entirely student-run.
