edenseven is a new energy and environmental consultancy combining digital transformation and sustainability.
Cambridge Management Consulting has today announced the launch of edenseven
– a new subsidiary of the Cambridge Management Consulting group dedicated to energy and environmental transformation. edenseven is being launched by co-founder Tim Passingham in partnership with experienced non-executive and Green Tech investor Chris Rowley with Pete Nisbet, former MD of Mitie Energy, leading edenseven as Managing Partner.
edenseven will help companies transition to a sustainable model that accelerates their financial growth. As businesses within public and private sectors prioritise net zero targets and plan their Covid-19 recovery, there exist both significant risks and opportunities. As a leading innovator in digital transformation, Cambridge Management Consulting is launching edenseven
to help businesses maximise their opportunities and manage their risks through the application of digital technology to the net zero challenge.
Combining Cambridge Management Consulting’s ability to extract value from data with edenseven’s knowledge of the environmental sector, sustainability transformation can be delivered at scale, helping organisations implement data-led strategies, on-target and on-time.
Pete Nisbet, Managing Partner of edenseven, explains: “We saw an urgent need for a management consultancy that can link technology understanding and market experience to enable sustainable growth. We see data analytics as central to the company-wide changes required to deliver net zero commitments.”
Chris Rowley, co-founder and Non-Executive Chairman of edenseven, explains why he is excited about edenseven: “Sustainability should be at the core of business strategy. It is the future. Leaders that transform swiftly will benefit their stakeholders and their businesses. We’ve founded edenseven because we firmly believe in the opportunity to deliver rapid transformation with real business benefits.”
Tim Passingham is Chairman of Cambridge Management Consulting, co-founder and Non-Executive Director of edenseven, and adds: “We have wanted to launch a business focussed on climate change since the inception of Cambridge Management Consulting. edenseven will help us magnify the positive impact we seek to have on the planet. We can help bring our digital skills to corporates struggling to really understand how they are progressing towards net zero and help them accelerate that progress.”
edenseven will initially operate in ten countries and serve companies internationally. Like the other Cambridge Management Consulting companies, edenseven will also donate over one percent of its profits to charity and support all of its staff, consultants and associates to give at least one percent of their time pro bono to support environmental causes.

We were approached by a global networking systems, services, and software company that specialises in optical and routing solutions. Their technology helps carriers, enterprises, and governments build more efficient and scalable networks, particularly for high-bandwidth applications like 5G, cloud computing, and AI-driven networking. Africa is a key strategic market for this client. They are also playing an active role in advancing outlined 5G technology on the continent, emphasising a focus on routing and switching aggregation components, network slicing, and monetisation. The Opportunity The client engaged Cambridge MC to provide external insight and support to augment and accelerate the progress of their Go-to-Market plans for Africa. We proposed our in-house rapid Strategy Stress Test that delivers key insights across areas of your strategy using a 1–5 health-scoring matrix. The client's aim is to grow market share in the region with a precisely focussed strategy that targets their market with key propositions and solutions. We were engaged to review this strategy and their plans for the region, identifying critical opportunities and gaps with a quick turnaround. Approach We used our Rapid Strategy Stress Test methodology which provides: Target geographies, opportunities, and partners for resource effectiveness and success maximisation Assessment of client's Go-to-Market Strategy including identification and testing of key assumptions Identification of new opportunities and any gaps in the strategy Recommendations on how best to capitalise on the market and accelerate their route to success This included carrying out target addressable and client-addressable market sizing by country for the Optical, Data Centre Interconnect, Routing and Switching portfolios; competitor market share analysis; analysis of current and planned data centre build in the target countries; future trend analysis, including Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Legal and Environmental trends by country. We put their GtM strategy and plans through our Stress Test framework, scoring capabilities against best-in-class – across 11 parameters such as Market Potential, Adaptability to Local Needs, Pricing and Marketing & Demand Generation. Recommendations were made against each of the 11 areas relating to opportunities to accelerate their GtM strategy. In order to support effective targeting of resources into key countries, we developed a country prioritisation framework across 15 parameters, such as GDP growth, energy supply, stability of regulatory environment, and ease of doing business. This quantitative assessment was supplemented with the real world experience of our Africa experts.
