Why Cognosis?

“We work in an industry that is going through rapid change. The war games with Cognosis have really helped us to see things from other perspectives, identify likely competitor moves and plan our response accordingly. An invaluable exercise, and something I would thoroughly recommend to any company serious about either disrupting their industry or maintaining their competitive advantage”

“From start to finish I found the team at Cognosis to be exceptional. In what can be a complex and nuanced category to comprehend, the team got to grips with the challenge immediately. The intelligence packs are some of the finest strategic papers we now have in our arsenal. The workshops were engaging and we now have a clear set of attack plans to exploit our competitors weaknesses”
