About us

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]

AKOU is a social impact consultancy. We look at the impact of placemaking, regeneration, local services and investment. We believe true social impact begins and ends with good connections. Our USP is our ability to highlight how social capital is created, and how our clients positively or negatively influence social capital and impact society via their service.

Since 2014 the AKOU team has been leading action-based research projects and developing tools that support citizen participation in evaluation and impact measurement. AKOU was originally set up to provide the right tools and digital support to rebalance power around area development and regeneration.

Today we work on projects that require research, data analysis, design, tech development and therapeutic practices to produce tools that help people and organisations share better information, build better relationships and have a greater impact on those they aim to serve.
