Alison Taylor

I’m the founder of Augur, a business design and strategy studio based in Los Angeles, where I help social enterprises and climate-focused startups build sustainable, purpose-driven organizations. With international experience and a non-linear career path, I bring a global lens to strategy, leadership and growth.

I make strategy approachable by helping founders streamline operations, refine business models and create scalable cultures. My structured yet laid-back approach empowers early-stage founders to turn big ideas into thriving businesses.

I have helped startups across EV charging, PropTech and CPG scale from zero to $10M, closed a $250K brand deal in 15 minutes, and mentored hundreds of entrepreneurs and executives. I’m a mentor at Techstars, Cox Cleantech Accelerator and Southwest Global Women In Tech, with a specialization in women’s entrepreneurship.
