“The Giovanni van Bronckhorst Foundation greatly values its collaboration with Athlead. Their extensive
expertise, professional approach, and reliability have significantly contributed to the success of our projects. We
highly appreciate the consistent quality of their services and the smooth cooperation, and we look forward to
continuing this successful partnership.”
– Jacqueline Jonkhart,
CEO of Giovanni Van Bronckhorst Foundation
At Athlead, we believe that lasting change in sport comes not only from action on the ground, but also from
understanding what works, why it works, and how it can be sustained.
Our strength lies in bringing rigour, curiosity, and collaboration to the way evidence is generated and shared. By
embedding community and impacted person-centred perspectives, we work with beneficiaries and those with
lived experience to ensure data is not extracted, but benefits and is shaped by everyone. That means that our
research and programme design equips organisations to adapt, innovate, and build programmes that are both
accountable and transformative.
