Financial analysis, business planning, and feasibility studies are the backbone of our services implemented and supported by professionals with expertise and exposure to risk management and broader contexts of opportunities to apply theoretical and practical models of mathematical finance. 

What will be the focus of the Kosovo office?

Our major focus was within the private sector consulting services and we expect to integrate with ease within CIVITTA’s private sector practices. On the other hand, in terms of public and innovation streams, we have already recruited consultants with experience in the field and with CIVITTA’s assistance we plan to set up and develop the team to increase the intensity of our activities within the public and innovation sector which also reflects our focus for the upcoming years.

What are your plans and expectations now that you joined the CIVITTA family?

We already have felt the impact of becoming part of CIVITTA family and that is noticed in the dynamics of the company and it is also being reflected in our office as well. In this regard, we expect to increase our business activity through an increase in public and innovation streams. We also expect to grow our professional skills through communication with other offices and learn the best practices from their previous experiences. 

Last but not least, as CIVITTA is positioned as the Challenger advisory, could you share how do you feel this Challenger spirit will apply to your future endeavours?

The decision to integrate Envision Consulting within the CIVITTA family was majorly based upon the Challenger spirit of the company which we also share. As the challenger advisory, we feel destined to challenge and inspire others to reach the best results. As a challenger we are ought to apply risk insights to meet goals and objectives, strategic thinker, and a catalyst change, driving innovation to achieve a profitable balance between risk and reward.
