About Us

Our Story

Established in 2021 by Maia, Climate Horizons is based on decades of experience in the sustainability sector before it became mainstream, and was founded on the need to do strategic consultancy differently. 

The three axes of people, profit and planet are equally important, and yet often competing. Complex problems require innovative solutions, and it is only through breaking silos between different disciplines that it becomes possible to address systemic vulnerabilities and leverage opportunities across geographies and industries.  

Based on our commitment to co-creation with exceptional talent, we work together with corporates, researchers, philanthropists, governments, and ecosystem enablers, and together, deliver research, solutions, and transformations across the sustainability and ESG spectrum with a focus on just transition planning and bespoke mentorship during tough decision-making to prepare for a messier, warmer future. 

We are now a fully remote organisation with a strong global presence and trusted network of collaborators that we can draw upon to develop tailored projects for our diverse clients. Our talented analysts, senior experts, and high-profile specialists are based across the world, from the UK and Europe to South Africa and Latin America.
