Ekipa

In 2016, Hugo Messer recognized a critical gap in how organizations across Southeast Asia were approaching project management and team collaboration. Traditional hierarchical structures were failing to deliver the agility and innovation that modern businesses desperately needed. This realization sparked the founding of Ekipa - a revolutionary agile training and coaching consultancy that would transform the way companies think about work.

Headquartered in Indonesia with operations spanning Singapore and Malaysia, Ekipa has grown into an experienced multinational team of consultants, coaches, and facilitators dedicated to helping organizations embrace modern ways of working. What sets Ekipa apart is its radical approach to internal organization: it operates as a 100% self-managed entity with no hierarchy, where every team member is an owner who shares in the company's success and profits. Rather than fixed job descriptions, employees work on projects they're passionate about, collaborating with customers to bring entrepreneurship, agility, and innovation to their organizations. Through comprehensive training programs, coaching services, and strategic consultancy, Ekipa partners with businesses to create courageous, innovative, and high-performing teams that drive meaningful change in how Indonesian professionals work, act, and think.
