Success - Made in Germany
Causal Impact was founded as a partnership in Hamburg, Germany, in 2002. The founding partners were research methodology experts, Dieter Kotte and Petra Lietz. During the first few years our team focussed exclusively on high-end R&D. We are the first consulting company world-wide to succeed in customizing causal analyses for our target clientele. Using available corporate, organisational and institutional data we advanced strategic planning, management and decision-making in a range of industries and settings significantly.
In serving clients Causal Impact pursues a straightforward global mission:
- to think ahead and be innovative
- to be reliable and dedicated
- to achieve sustainable, positive change
- to keep learning.

Our unique international expertise centers around causal analyses, a sophisticated approach to optimize performance, reduce unnecessary costs and minimize risks. To achieve this strategic performance enhancement, we rely on our proprietary and innovative 4M Technology which redefines business intelligence world-wide.
For our clients this means success - made in Germany.
