Proof of Usefulness Score
Industry Mainstay

The Tech Collective is a verified subsidiary of Implement Consulting Group (Danish), with a confirmed team of ~100 experts (vs. 350 claimed) and substantial B2B operations. While the project is a legitimate, large-scale consultancy, the submission quality is extremely poor, containing false claims ('everyone', 'most people have used my product') and confusing metrics ('marketcap' likely refers to ~75M DKK revenue). The score reflects the strong underlying business reality, heavily penalized for the low-quality, exaggerated submission.

Description
We are building an ecosystem made up of small, agile teams. A collective. Each with a passion for using technology and digital solutions to drive business transformation. Just as the right IT infrastructure can optimise operations, improve productivity and accelerate growth – the wrong one can slow down even the most tech-savvy organisations. And, despite the digital age being well and truly upon us, humans and technology don’t always complement each other like salt and pepper. This is where The Tech Collective comes in. We are both the salt and the pepper.
