Tailor-made Advice
Every organisation faces unique challenges, and our approach reflects that. We take the time to understand your goals, operations, and context before developing a solution that truly fits your needs. Using data-driven analysis and structured problem-solving, we help you tackle a wide range of issues, from financial management and valuation to strategic positioning and operational optimisation. Each project is designed around your specific situation, ensuring that our recommendations are not only insightful, but also actionable and directly applicable to your organisation.
Academic Excellence and Fresh Perspective
As a team of selected master’s students from the University of Groningen, we combine solid academic foundations with fresh, innovative thinking. Our work bridges the gap between theory and practice: we apply the latest academic insights, models, and analytical techniques to real-world challenges. This allows us to view problems from new angles and deliver creative, evidence-based solutions. Supported by professional training from leading consultancies such as EY and Simon-Kucher, we bring both academic rigour and practical know-how to every engagement — ensuring a professional outcome with a youthful, forward-looking perspective
Non-profit Impact
Our mission goes beyond business results — we aim to create meaningful impact. As a non-profit initiative, our focus lies in generating value for organisations and society rather than financial gain. We collaborate with companies, start-ups, NGOs, and public institutions to deliver advice that drives sustainable progress. Guided by university faculty and backed by FSG’s extensive network of professionals and alumni, we ensure that every project is executed with integrity, enthusiasm, and a genuine commitment to positive change. Working with FAT means investing in high-quality consultancy with purpose.
