20 years of experience

L-up was established in 2001 by Philippe Bellier.

Striving for excellence, Philippe’s objective was to create a highly flexible, human-centred working environment, characterised by trust and appreciation, allowing L-up’s “field-proven” senior consultants to entirely focus on the client and on the quality of L-up’s contribution to each mission.

Phillipe’s approach was totally avant-garde in 2001 and still is incredibly progressive today.

But his vision reaches beyond: It places critical collective reviewing of projects, processes, or business models at the core of L-up’s unique modus operandi, thus allowing to capture different opinions and to promote exchange as well as individual and organisational learning.

Why “L-up”?

For the curious among you:

L-up is derived from the Roman numeral for 50 and refers to the fact that L-up’s senior experts do not only carry the title “senior consultant” but actually DO have up to 30 years of professional experience and thus are around 50. We don’t claim that 50 is the new 40 – it’s the NEW 50, mature, dynamic, eager to share our knowledge, and able to move things forward.
