Click below to explore some of our international Consulting intern partners and the work students have done:
Aerobotics is a Cape Town-based aerial data analytics company that is changing how farmers manage their crops, and in turn, the future of farming. The startup provides farmers with a bird’s eye view of their orchards, with the aim of optimising crop yields and reducing costs.
In 2018, the iX Management Consulting interns used their consulting toolkit to develop recommended solutions to address shortcomings in the client’s funnel conversion process. They also conceptualized and developed an international go-to-market strategy, focusing on market sizing, dynamics, and growth marketing strategies. At a capstone to their internship, they built and presented an implementation plan from these insights.
Accenture is a Fortune Global 500 management consulting and professional services firm that provides strategy, consulting, digital, technology and operations services worldwide.
Our 2018 interns worked on a project with a client in the Oil & Gas Industry. The client was divesting its local business and the consulting team assisted them with the carve-out. The project scope included defining new business processes for the client, including adjusting the firm's support systems, and making recommendations about its business roles and internal structures.
Barclays (now called Absa in South Africa) is a well-known financial services provider, offering personal and business banking, credit cards, corporate and investment banking, wealth and investment management.
The iX interns were tasked with innovating solutions to help bring banking to South Africa’s almost 13 million unbanked people. Guided by their teachers and managers at the company, the internship team focused their efforts on understanding the implications of two unique facets of community and informal banking in South Africa: ‘stokvels’ (traditional rotating savings and credit clubs) and funeral policies. They then used their insights to sketch out a ‘dream scenario’, arriving at innovative, rigorous recommendations, which they presented to key stakeholders at the company.
"From performing market analyses using Porter’s Five Forces, to understanding how we are positioned within the market using STP mapping, to developing dynamic financial models, the consulting course has prepared me to address a wide range of business problems, if not all, with confidence."
"Accenture meant getting into the office at 9am and doing some research on a current issue and our client, then we would prepare for meetings/presentations with our manager. What I enjoy most about my internship is that I feel like I am actually working on a real project."
"For consulting we had to to be able to analyze data like a data scientist, create a PowerPoint deck like a designer, do excel modeling like a broker. For me, this aspect of the course, in addition to an awesome instructor and TAs, makes every class so enjoyable."
"Our teacher, Anton, created a dynamic that really inspired me to perform and to squeeze every bit of learning and enjoyment out of this course - our final project wouldn't have been the same without his drive."
"This class was one of the most rewarding classes I have ever taken, and I honestly could not have asked for a better teacher. Figuring out my career path now seems a little less daunting and I am so grateful to have had Anton as a teacher and mentor."
