Founder-led. Deeply expert.
Built for transformation.

Ardinois is not a leverage pyramid. We are a founder-led consultancy with deep operating experience in data, AI, and information — and the discipline to turn ambition into programmes that actually run.

01

Founder-led assignments

Every assignment is led by a founder — from the first conversation to the final hand-off. No handoff to a junior team after the contract is signed.

We deliver in teams: a growing in-house team and a trusted network of freelance specialists we staff projects with, matched to the exact expertise the work demands. But leadership never delegates. The partners you meet carry the engagement, take the decisions, and stay accountable for the outcome.

  • Assignments led end-to-end by the founders
  • Project teams staffed from a trusted network of specialists
  • Direct access to the decision-makers — accountability never dilutes

Profound expertise in our domains

We have run the functions we now advise. Scaling AI organisations at H&M and Nike. Running enterprise information and operations. Building companies from scratch.

Our advice comes from having owned these problems — budgets, teams, legacy systems, and politics included — not from a methodology binder. We know what scaled AI looks like from the inside, and we know where programmes break, because we have repaired them.

  • H&M Group — VP Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning
  • Nike — Director Artificial Intelligence EMEA
  • EY — data consulting in financial services
  • Xylos — COO & Director Enterprise Information
  • Pauwels Solution Group — Director of IT Services
  • Cronos Group (RedTree, Formica) — Founder, Managing Partner

From ambition to transformation programme

A strategy is only as good as the programme it becomes. We translate high-level ambition into concrete transformation programme definitions — on the people, process, and technology level.

Who needs which capability. Which workflows change, and who owns them. What gets built, in what order, on which architecture. The result is board-ready and execution-ready at the same time: an ambition your organisation can actually run.

  • People — roles, capabilities, literacy, and adoption
  • Process — operating model, governance, and workflows
  • Technology — architecture, platforms, and build sequence
