To lead is to design, and to design is to lead.
At Concurrency, we believe leadership and design are inseparable—both are acts of creativity, vision, and transformation. Based in London, a global hub for innovation, technology, and design, we collaborate with organisations and academia worldwide to reimagine how they lead and create. As a strategic design agency, we operate at the cutting edge of systems change, inclusive AI, and crafting solutions that prioritise sustainability, equity, and long-term impact.
Guided by Ve Dewey’s global expertise, Concurrency combines global insight with bold, forward-thinking strategies to empower cultural institutions, creative industries, startups, and academic organisations. We challenge conventional leadership and design models and build resilient, sustainable, and future-focused systems and practices.
