• About

  • The Value Web is an international non-profit association, based in Switzerland, focusing on engaging NGO's, social enterprises, foundations, non-profits, governments and multi-sector collaborations in transformational projects for a more sustainable, equitable world. We design and deliver collaborative engagements to support like-minded leaders and their organizations around the world.

    The Value Web’s collective experience allows our design processes to cut through the complexity found in the worlds of business, government, non-profit and civil society – and build connections at the intersections where these communities come together.

    The Value Web stands for integrity and sustainable solutions that best benefit the organization and the larger world in which it is a part.

    For more information on who we are, what we do and who we work with, please use the buttons below or along the top of the page. To the right you will find our blog. Below are some testimonials to the work we have done.

  • YGLs at the World Economic Forum in Jordan

    A constellation of elements contributed to this year’s success, notably, the impact journeys and sessions, the networking opps, the group chemistry, and the venue, complete with private outdoor terrace. YGLs congregated in groups large and small to talk about passions, needs, know-how and dreams.

  • Green goes Mobile…Maybe?
  • Samsung unveiled a new “environmentally friendly” phone at the Mobile World Congress technology event in Barcelona this past February, although today is the first I have heard of it. Surprisingly, information directly from the company is hard to come by – it only seems to be listed on Samsung’s UK site – and is nowhere [...]

  • Emerging from the Noise…Seeking a Higher Order
  • After our recent work was through at the World Economic Forum on the Middle East, a fellow member of The Value Web and I spent a week exploring Jordan. We traveled to Petra and wandered slack-jawed through the siq, past the treasury and into the marketplace, along the roman high road, and then by mule [...]

  • Bringing in the outsiders
  • The design of our sessions always includes a strong graphic angle. We create large visual representations of concepts or models.
    During Davos 2009, but also recently at the World Business Dialogue in Cologne, we felt compelled to build those visuals around human figures and human stories.
    On the central wall in our room in Davos was a [...]
