How We Work with Clients

At BCG Canada, we work side by side with clients to solve their most important challenges—from driving digital transformation and improving operational performance, to delivering on sustainability commitments and building the capabilities needed for long-term resilience.

Our teams in Toronto, Montreal, and Calgary bring deep local knowledge and a global perspective, drawing on expertise across strategy, people and organization, operations, big data and AI, corporate finance, marketing and sales, product innovation, climate and sustainability, and social impact. We bring the best of BCG’s global network—paired with the insight, relationships, and rigour built from years of work across Canadian industries and communities.

More than 75% of our work comes from longstanding client partnerships—a reflection of the trust we’ve built and the impact we deliver. These relationships cut across sectors essential to Canada’s future—including financial services, energy, consumer goods, health care, industrials, and the public sector.

Especially in uncertain times, we are proud to be the partner of choice for Canadian business leaders seeking clarity, ambition, and action.

Social Impact

Since launching in Canada in 1993, BCG has made social impact central to our firm’s vision. We collaborate with leading Canadian organizations to shape national conversations—while staying grounded in our clients’ values and priorities.

Our teams partner with high-impact organizations and nonprofits across a wide range of urgent issues including climate solutions, talent strategies, mental health, and more. In 2013, BCG helped establish LEAP | Pecaut Centre for Social Impact, which scales proven non-profit models. Since its founding, LEAP has positively impacted the lives of nearly 7 million people across the country.

In 2024, we helped launch the Centre for Indigenous Corporate Partnerships, designed to break down barriers and create opportunities for Indigenous economic empowerment by supporting Indigenous peoples and organizations.
