Business strategy, built to grow.
Acorn Advising helps companies grow, scale with intent, and put technology to work — modernizing how they operate so strategy turns into results.
Services
Four ways we move a business forward.
Every engagement starts from the business strategy and works outward — technology is the lever, never the goal.
Building for Scale
Design the operating model, teams and platforms that let a company grow without breaking — repeatable, measurable, resilient.
Technology & AI
Put data, AI and machine learning to work on real business problems, with the governance to adopt them responsibly.
Modernization
Retire the legacy drag. We plan and guide the shift to modern systems and ways of working, without disrupting the business.
Approach
From a small seed of insight to a durable advantage.
Diagnose
We start with the business — its goals, constraints and the honest state of its people, process and technology.
Design
We shape a clear strategy and roadmap, with priorities sequenced for value and the decisions leadership needs to make.
Deliver
We stay alongside your team through execution, so the plan becomes capability your organization owns.
About
Senior counsel, from the operator's chair.
Acorn Advising is led by Todd Davis, former Chief Technology Officer of S&P Global's Market Intelligence division, where he founded its Data, Technology and Innovation group.
We bring that experience to leadership teams that want to grow deliberately — pairing business strategy with the technology to execute it.
