Banking, finance & fintech

A fast-paced, technology-driven business with a strong depen­dence on macro trends and highly demanding customers – finance makes our eyes shine! Whether it’s online brokers, tradi­tional or digital banks, fintech, or payment providers, we help develop perfect journeys and products, streamline processes, and turn customers into fans.

Telecom­mu­ni­ca­tions

A commodity market that only functions based on price? Far from it – the telco business is so much more. In an oligopoly, the details make the difference: Which checkout provides the perfect experience? Which provider has the best digital commu­ni­cation channels? Who excels in on-site and off-site person­al­ization? Who can differ­en­tiate themselves from the compe­tition through agile, test-based approaches? We help win the tough battle for customer favor.

Purpose

Sustain­ability in our DNA

Since the foundation of elaboratum, sustain­ability has been at the centre of every­thing we do. We regularly record our carbon footprint in accor­dance with the strict standards of ISO 14064 and the GHG Protocol and have this verified by TÜV Süd Industrie Service. This shows that we take respon­si­bility and that green­washing has no place in our company. We are contin­u­ously working to further reduce our emissions with targeted measures.

Our expertise in sustain­ability also flows directly into our consulting projects. We support companies in devel­oping effective sustain­ability strategies, designing sustainable products, avoiding returns and making sustain­ability commu­ni­cation credible — both inter­nally and exter­nally. Our aim is not to give green­washing a chance.

Our strategic goal is clear: every project should make a contri­bution to sustain­ability.
