Leuven

Welcome

180 Degrees Consulting Leuven started its first operational year in September 2019, finally bringing the most established student consultancy worldwide to the largest university in Belgium. 

We aim to develop innovative, practical and sustainable solutions to the challenges non-profits in the area are facing. To this end, we leverage the untapped capabilities of our university students in order to assist socially conscious organizations in reaching their full potential. 

At the same time, we offer our consultants extensive professional and personal development opportunities, through training from top tier consultancies and high-achieving companies. We intend to shape a generation of young professionals that are both conscious about the difficult circumstances people worldwide are facing and passionate about improving them.

    Year: 2019

    Transplantoux’s challenge lies in finding recurrent revenue streams. They want to know which subventions they can apply for and which companies they should contact in order to build long-term sponsoring relationships.

    I personally appreciated the creative thinking of the team, the methodology and the instructive outcome, especially the use of social media. It encourages further indepth thinking/acting on the way forward.

    Year: 2019

    The aim of this project is to professionalise Horizon Ethical Projects. This can be done by clearly defining their Business Model and providing a suited Customer Relationship Management system that they can use to manage the SMEs they support.

    The team worked with a consistent manner and took the coherence of the HEP needs into account at each stage the mission.

  • The Shift

    Area: Market Analysis
    Year: 2020

    The Shift is the Belgian meeting point for sustainability. Their challenge consists of an analysis of all available tools that provide a good and validated measure of the ecological footprint of small and medium-sized enterprises in Belgium. Departing from that measurement, organisations should know on which areas to focus to reduce their impact on the climate.

    I always felt comfortable and confident in the approach and results of the students. They acted professionally and delivered thorough work. Very satisfied.

  • Duurzaam Incasso

    Area: Strategy
    Year: 2020

    Duurzaam Incasso aims to develop a sustainable strategy offered by companies that enables consumers to pay their bills. Our team pursued a market research to find out which demographics do not pay and, most importantly, why. By doing so, they helped constitute a sustainable strategy.

    I appreciated the strong professionalism, strong collaboration and open, constructive and positive communication.

  • 't Lampeke

    Area: Financial Sustainability
    Year: 2020

    t' Lampeke is a Leuven-based NGO focusing on socially-vulnerable people. Our team conducted a financial analysis to investigate - and eventually determine - sustainable financial resources.

    Warm, refreshing cooperation (even in corona-times). Nice, empathetic people.

  • Toolbox

    Area: Client acquisition
    Year: 2021

    Toolbox vzw is a Belgian non-profit organisation of pro bono experts, coaching nonprofits and social organizations to improve their management and maximise their social impact. In 2020 alone, they counted 170+ experts coaching 80+ organisations. The mission is to conduct a market analysis and develop an effective brand awareness strategy.

    I improved my soft and hard skills at the numerous workshops and I had some amazing team members to grow with during the project.

  • WWF

    Area: Technical
    Year: 2021

    WWF Belgium is the Belgian branch of an international organization working on nature conservation and protecting the climate. They raise awareness on these issues but also influence public policy and conduct research. In order to manage numerous projects at the same time and maintain an overview, they need an appropriate monitoring system. The project is to come up with concrete, hands-on proposals for an appropriate tool for the national programs.

    I enjoyed the opportunity to create valua for a non-pfroit while learning soft skills and meeting a lof of interesting, new people.
