Fox & Hedgehog is a quantitative research firm based in Melbourne, Australia, founded by Michael Horner.
The name comes from the philosophy of Isaiah Berlin, based on the Ancient Greek fragment: “The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing.”
Berlin used this ancient Greek fragment to categorise thinkers and leaders:
Foxes are thinkers. They draw on a wide variety of experiences and ideas. They are pragmatic, adaptable, and less bound by one grand theory.
Hedgehogs are leaders. They interpret the world through a single, unifying idea or principle. They are deep, focused, and offer vision.
Fox & Hedgehog believes that both have value. Hedgehogs offer vision, while foxes deliver the insights to achieve it.
At Fox & Hedgehog we proudly deliver accurate, actionable insights to deliver your vision.
