About b-think
B-think is a representative organization of this new exponential century. Centennial companies, once considered immortal, fall prey to the business creativity of the new economy. Our team has emerged in an evolutionary process from the experience of professionals with over 30 years in the market.
Animus, an award-winning strategic design firm, has evolved into Animus O2, which became d-think with the mission of spreading design thinking. Engaged in increasingly complex strategic projects, we have learned to transform ourselves. In this continuous evolution, b-think – Specialist in Business Thinking, emerged.
