Story

Independent Consulting Ltd was founded in Hong Kong in 2007. Since then, the company has built up a long list of references in consulting as well as training and has entered into a number of joint ventures in the transportation and media industries to strengthen and diversify its product portfolio. The company went through a restructuring in 2014 expanding the Board of Directors and attracting new shareholders. As a result, the company name was changed to Independent Business Group (IBG) and the scope of business has been redefined into three key areas:

1. Independent Consulting: the company’s core business which is supported by a network of over 60 consultants. Within this area the company has a strong portfolio in Transportation (Aviation in particular) and growing business in the domain of Management Consulting (including M&A). Our consulting brand is well-recognized with references from EUROCONTROL, IATA, Gatwick Airport, Changi Airport Group, DCA Malaysia, AIRNAV Indonesia, Dubai Air Navigation Services, etc.

2. Independent Academy: focused on training and aims to support companies and schools with their training-related needs ranging from development and maintenance of training material to provision of instructor services and E-learning tools. In line with the consulting business, the Academy is strong in aviation-related training with a portfolio of 47 courses and more than 30 instructors. In addition to this, we also provide courses related to general management, leadership and communication.

3. Independent Ventures: aims to diversify the IBG portfolio through participation in other ventures. Examples are IBG’s participation in Querendo Ltd, a company which develops need-based media systems with integrated advertising engines for the transportation and hospitality sectors, and in a joint venture called Independent Analytics which provides services and tools to Airports, ANSPs and Military for assessing the performance of surveillance equipment.
