Welcome to Coest

Our dream is a world where people and businesses with integrity and a genuine desire to do well by doing good have the most influence, impact, and success.

Our calling is to be catalysts and amplifiers for a more conscious business world. By enabling companies with conscious products, services, solutions, and business models to take root and flourish, we increase their presence and positive impact around the globe.

Our duty is to drive conscious business development in Scandinavia. We bring together, inspire, support, and invest in the most conscious people and companies - who share our hunger to scale the positive potential in business and co-create a näringsliv that genuinely nurtures life.

“Once you figure out the question, then the answer is relatively easy. I came to the conclusion that really we should aspire to increase the scope and scale of human consciousness in order to better understand what questions to ask. The only thing that makes sense to do is strive for greater collective enlightenment.”
