BEAST Information

Make better decisions BEAST motivates behavioural change with the power of digital nudging, cognitive science and machine learning. We’re a team of passionate behavioural economists with the goal of applying the science for the benefit of the global south. BEAST finds its origins at the University of Warwick, which has one of the best behavioural and economic science departments in the world. Previously, the founders along with other enthusiastic students and academics, started the Warwick Behavioural Insights Team which focusses on solving human-centered challenges at the local level. Perhaps this idea – which developed at the University of Warwick cafeteria – has now expanded its ambition towards the aim of empowering the lives of billions within the global south. You can simply call us your friendly neighborhood BEASTIES.
