About Spearstone

Tangible experience you can bank on.

A boutique firm that specialises in understanding human behaviour to address the elusive trifecta of winning results: the right people, doing the right thing, at the right time.

Who we are

Founded by industry veterans, for the hardest problems.

Spearstone was founded as a group of industry veterans to tackle the gnarliest and most important challenges facing government, enterprise, startups, and society in general.

From strategy, investment governance, and market analysis to sales, marketing, and software development, Spearstone can be a force-multiplier, a secret weapon in your back pocket, and a set of shoulders for you to stand upon to achieve tangible success.

The name Spearstone comes from the concept that what really matters for our clients is what actually hits the target. The stone at the tip of the spear is what we help clients discover, prove, and sharpen for immediate and long-term repeatable success.
