Anthesis Consulting Group: shaping the global sustainability debate

Formed in October 2013, Anthesis Consulting incorporates Oxford-based Best Foot Forward, an established European sustainability consultancy, and employs 75 across Europe, North America, China, the Middle East and the Philippines. With Stuart McLachlan, a former director of the WSP agency, at the helm, Anthesis had developed a project portfolio worth £5m by the end of 2013.

The group's strength lies in helping to shape discussions around sustainability.

For example, it helped Tesco to develop a measurement system for tracking food waste from "farm to fork". The British Retail Consortium is working with other major retailers to ensure that Tesco's system becomes standard industry practice.

Elsewhere, Anthesis helped to develop and communicate the M&S Plan A food strategy to M&S stakeholders at the company's 2013 Annual General Meeting. It also helped the UK's Department for Food, Agriculture and Rural Affairs (Defra) analyse UK households' interactions with food and researched how the government could influence individuals' behaviour.

In the pharmaceuticals sector, Anthesis completed a product sustainability assessment for Reckitt Benckiser, enabling 500 of its R&D employees to regularly analyse how their decisions might affect the environment. Similarly, Anthesis launched and expanded the Cool Farm Tool, an online CO2 calculator that helps growers to measure and understand the carbon footprint of their products. The tool is supported by food and drink industry giants including Tesco, Unilever and PepsiCo.

All the projects are led by senior specialists and Anthesis's aim is to maintain a focus on hard evidence.

Carlyle Acquires Majority Stake in Sustainability Consultancy Anthesis

' src=

Global private capital investment firm The Carlyle Group announced the acquisition of a majority stake in pure-play sustainability advisory and solutions firm Anthesis.

According to Carlyle, the move will help strengthen its ESG strategy and advance progress across its portfolio on the creation and execution of decarbonization initiatives.

Meg Starr, Global Head of Impact at Carlyle, said:

“We are excited to partner with Anthesis and look forward to working closely in the coming years to develop solutions around material ESG topics both within our portfolio and on a broader, global scale. We are particularly looking forward to collaborating with Anthesis given its convening power to drive convergence on critical ESG issues in private markets, such as their market-leading work on decarbonization and Net Zero guidance for private equity.”

Founded in 2013, London-based Anthesis works with companies, cities and other organizations to drive sustainability performance and develop financially-driven sustainability strategies. The firm’s integrated service areas include Strategy & Governance, Supply Chain & Operations, Sustainable Products & Services, Brand & Communications, Education & Culture, Cities & Environments, and Transactions & Finance.

Anthesis has experienced rapid growth over the past few years, and has completed 18 add-on acquisitions since inception, and currently consists of 1,250 specialists across 39 offices in 22 countries. The firm said that the investment by the Carlyle Europe Partners (CEP) platform will support initiatives including Anthesis’ international expansion, widening of its ESG and sustainability offering and future M&A.

Anthesis CEO and Co-Founder Stuart McLachlan said:

“We are excited to work closely with Carlyle to further strengthen their approach to ESG and sustainability, as they seek to lead by example in the global investment industry. We will continue to act as guides to our clients, realizing the value creation opportunity of sustainability in our rapidly changing world.”

Mark Dale, Managing Director on the Carlyle Europe Partners investment advisory team, added:

“As demand for sustainability solutions continues to accelerate, we believe Anthesis’ long-standing reputation for leading technical expertise and track record of high-quality delivery, makes the company exceptionally well positioned to further scale to meet this growing opportunity.”

Carlyle will be investing alongside Anthesis’ employee shareholders and existing shareholder Palatine reinvesting for a minority stake. Palatine made its initial investment in 2021.

Beth Houghton, Impact Managing Partner at Palatine, said:

“We have enjoyed a close and successful partnership with Stuart and the Anthesis team, achieving significant organic growth and five successful acquisitions, delivering strong impact and returns for Palatine. In re-investing, we will continue to deliver on our mission of generating Returns with Purpose. We’re excited to be part of the next stage of the Anthesis’ growth journey alongside Carlyle, as more organisations embrace the imperative to act with urgency to address the climate crisis.”

Anthesis Emerges As A Serious Contender In The Global Sustainability Consulting Market

antithesis consulting

David Metcalfe

Despite being founded just eight years ago, through a string of 13 acquisitions and a recent investment from Palatine private equity, Anthesis Group has now earned the right to position itself as a genuine contender in the global climate change and sustainability consulting market. The firm has more than 600 employees located in 25 offices across 16 countries including Brazil, China, Columbia and United Arab Emirates. Anthesis now has the organizational resources, financial backing, digital expertise and project track record to compete with the likes of Deloitte, ERM and McKinsey.

The transformation of Anthesis into a global player with scale has accelerated in the last two years. Firstly, the firm  merged with Barcelona-headquartered Lavola  which approximately doubled the size of the business as it added 200 employees to the combined entity. Secondly, with the March 2021  investment from Palatine’s Buyout Fund  Anthesis provided a liquidity event in the range of £10 million to £30 million for some shareholders of firms it had acquired in the past. At the end of 2019, 70% of share capital was owned by Anthesis employees. For growth, Palatine’s Impact Fund also made a multi-million-pound investment – in the £5 million to £10 million range – in Anthesis. The Anthesis team chose Palatine over other private equity firms due to its exclusive focus on ‘businesses that can create a clear positive impact on society or the environment’. Anthesis reported net revenues of £27.7 million for the year ending December 31, 2019. The third element of Anthesis’ transition over the last two years has been the expansion of its  portfolio of digital tools . The portfolio includes SCATTER which provides city-wide GHG emissions reporting, Vastum which is a digital waste tracking tool and RiskHorizon used in due diligence to identify ESG risks.

As financial markets participants continue to push climate change and ESG issues up the corporate agenda, Anthesis is well-positioned to benefit from a wave of investment in sustainability initiatives. The firm’s ability to operationalize ESG and sustainability plans – the ‘sustainability activator’ role as Anthesis CEO Stuart McLachlan describes it – with digital tools and implementation services will be a key ingredient in the firm’s future success. The mission-driven impact strategy and recent B-Corp Certification enhance the firm’s positioning with like-minded clients. There is no doubt that the climate change and sustainability consulting market is a hot space. In November 2020,  Willis Towers Watson acquired Acclimatise  and in March 2021,  McKinsey acquired Vivid Economics and Planetrics  to enhance its sustainability and climate change expertise.

David is the CEO of Verdantix and co-founded the firm in 2008. Based on his 20 years of experience in technology strategy and research roles he provides guidance on digital strategies to C-level executives at technology providers, partners at private equity firms and function heads at large corporations. His current focus is on helping clients understand their market opportunity tied to ESG investment trends and their impact on corporate sustainability strategies. During his 12 years running Verdantix – including 4 leading the New York office – he has helped dozens of clients grow their businesses through fund raising, acquisitions and international growth. David was previously SVP Research at Forrester and Head of Analysis & Forecasting at BT. He holds a PhD from Cambridge University and also worked as a Research Associate at the Harvard Business School.

The company, which has achieved B Corp certification, has established itself as one of the largest group of dedicated sustainability professionals globally, having experienced rapid growth across its global customer base and network in recent years, and has completed 18 add-on acquisitions since inception.  Anthesis supports its highly diversified blue-chip client base in multiple aspects of their business, focusing on developing and activating sustainability strategies, enhancing digital capabilities, implementing carbon reduction plans and creating purpose-led communications.

A Design Research and Development Entity.

Antithesis is a creative consulting entity centralized towards the most cutting edge paradigms of design. In essence, it disregards modern standards, seeking to create its own identity. Antithesis is involved in fields such as human-machine centered design, human-computer interaction, user interface design, user experience design, and design research.

Antithesis offers a suite of services, including but not limited to web design/development, mobile app design/development, and software engineering. The differentiating factors offered within the Antithesis experience go beyond standard design and development of applications. We seek to use the most cutting technologies available to us. This involves experimental design systems to set our clients significantly above their competition.

Antithesis raises $47M to launch an automated testing platform for software

Female software developers discuss over the computer while sitting at a desk in the workplace. Creative businesswomen discuss the new coding program in the office.

Software testing is hard. Even with the right talent in place, it doesn’t always go as planned — particularly when executed at scale. In a 2020 survey from Electric Cloud, 58% of developers blamed software bugs on test infrastructure and process issues — not design defects.

The market for software testing solutions is quite massive, unsurprisingly, with one estimate pegging it at $55.98 billion. There’s plenty of vendors in the space, from startups like Qase , EvaluAgent and Codegen to incumbents like Azure and AWS.

But a new entrant, Antithesis , thinks it can make a splash.

Antithesis, which emerged from stealth today, was founded by the team behind FoundationDB , the distributed database platform, which Apple quietly acquired in 2015. Following the Apple acquisition, the FoundationDB team dispersed to pursue other Big Tech company jobs, but eventually arrived at the same conclusion: Even sophisticated organizations lacked the software testing tools they needed to be more efficient.

“So, five years ago, a number of us got back together to build Antithesis,” Will Wilson, the co-founder and CEO of Antithesis, told TechCrunch in an email interview. “We took the rigorous testing approach of FoundationDB, matured it, and, after years of operating in stealth, made it the only commercially available system of its kind for general software testing.”

Antithesis’ product continuously scans the newest version of software under development for bugs inside a separate-from-production, simulated environment (complete with virtual hardware, service and networking components), reproducing and providing debugging information for bugs it finds. This approach eliminates the need for developers to manually write their own tests, Wilson claims, which is typically a time-consuming and fraught process.

Antithesis runs software under a range of conditions and predefined properties to report any unintended behavior. When it notices interesting behavior, Antithesis makes a copy of the system state and explores possible outcomes from that point — “more intensely” exploring paths that produce abnormal logs.

“Autonomous testing is an important application [that can make] developers more productive,” Wilson said. “[It] gives engineers almost half their time back that they would’ve spent on bug-related issues and allows them to develop with confidence.”

That’s assuming Antithesis’ tech works as advertised. Investors seem enthusiastic about it in any case — Antithesis today closed a $47 million seed round from Amplify Partners, Tamarack Global, First In Ventures and angel investors, including Howard Lerman, the founder of Yext and Roam.

The round — unusually large for a seed — values Antithesis at $215 million, Reuters first reported and a source familiar with the matter confirmed to TechCrunch.

“A group of existing investors were very excited by our progress and came to us with a proposal to invest more on friendly terms,” Wilson said. “We jumped at the opportunity to keep working with people we trusted and to avoid a big fundraising roadshow with its attendant distractions.”

Virginia-based Antithesis is already working with customers, including Palantir, Ethereum and MongoDB and other unnamed “large enterprises,” as well as startups. But the funding will enable it to grow that base, Wilson says, by expanding Antithesis’ sales and marketing teams, growing engineering and research efforts and supporting ongoing feature and product development.
