We are at the intersection of two highly disruptive transformations. AI is already outpacing critical industry capabilities while climate change is driving natural disasters, supply chain challenges and corporate and government policies. Organizations know they need to act, demanding lighter, faster, innovative solutions that drive differentiation and long-term value. AZX was created to meet these challenges head-on. We believe that mission-driven, experienced innovators and creators build adaptable solutions that outperform SaaS and traditional consulting. We removed all unnecessary barriers between ideation and execution. We focus on the client problems and build the solutions that make a difference to people and the climate. And do it with integrity, humility and love.
