Note from founders

We founded Cigno on a simple belief: consulting deserves tools as rigorous and imaginative as the minds who practice it.

We admire this craft for its intellectual depth, its complexity, and its courage to question what others take for granted.

Consulting lives where logic meets imagination — where structure meets insight, and impact emerges from clarity of thought and a deep sense of responsibility.

At Cigno, we work in that same spirit.

We move with intent — fast when it matters, deliberate when it counts.

We build collaboratively, alongside our clients, anchored in trust, precision, and ethics.

We carry the same responsibility that defines great consulting — to think with integrity, to act with purpose, and to create lasting value.

That’s why we reject the idea that consulting is in decline.

We see the opposite: a new golden age, where technology amplifies human reasoning and consultants create more value than ever before.

An era defined not by automation, but by elevation — of thought, of judgment, of impact.

Our conviction is clear:

AI is not enough.

Because insight, trust, and purpose remain — and must remain — profoundly human.
